Hachirōmaru is the official website for a fishing charter boat based at Hayakawa Port in Odawara, Kanagawa, Japan. It focuses on nearshore boat-fishing experiences in Sagami Bay. This is not an online entertainment or e-commerce platform, but a local tourism/outdoor activity service site for individuals, families, and groups who want to try sea fishing in Odawara. Hayakawa Port is close to Odawara Fishing Port, about a 4-minute walk from JR Hayakawa Station, and is relatively easy to reach from the Tokyo area.
The site provides fishing plans, pricing, reservation availability, recent catches, boat equipment details, captain profiles, and access information. Available trips include gomoku mixed-species fishing, tilefish, seasonal squid, pufferfish, bigfin reef squid, Japanese whiting, as well as private lure-fishing charters for tuna/bonito aimed at more advanced anglers. The boat is 11.95 meters long, 11 tons, licensed for 14 people, and typically takes up to around 12 anglers. It is equipped with a fish finder, sonar, GPS, power supply for electric reels, live fish tank, toilet, and other facilities.
Typical shared-boat prices are 10,000 JPY for men, 9,000 JPY for women, 7,000 JPY for high school students, and 5,000 JPY for elementary and junior high school students. Some plans include bait and ice, while certain bait is charged separately. Private charters generally start from 60,000 JPY for 1–6 people on weekdays and 80,000 JPY for 1–8 people on weekends and public holidays, with additional guests charged at 10,000 JPY per person. Private lure-fishing charters for tuna/bonito start from 75,000 JPY for 1–5 people. Rods, manual reels, and electric reels are available for rent, though some plans require guests to bring their own gear.
The advantages are transparent pricing, a wide range of target fish, convenient access, and support from female staff, which lowers the barrier for women and families with children. It is also fairly beginner-friendly, offering fishing guidance and life jackets. The downsides are that the website is basically Japanese-only, reservations mainly rely on phone or LINE, and details on online payment, cancellation fees, and multilingual support are not very clear. Trips are also subject to weather, sea conditions, and the minimum number of participants needed for shared departures.
It is suitable for independent travelers visiting Japan who want to add a one-day sea-fishing activity, anglers living in Japan, families with children, and small groups looking to charter a boat. The website should generally be directly accessible from mainland China, but booking communication requires Japanese ability or help from a local friend in Japan. If contacting via LINE, users in mainland China may need additional network access arrangements.
