An oasis of fishing and boating that lets you forget the bustle of the metropolis
【弁慶橋ボート場】
In central Tokyo, quietly set along the tranquil waters facing the moat of the Imperial Palace stands 「弁慶橋ボート場(弁慶フィッシングクラブ)」。 Although surrounded by the city, once you step inside it becomes a relaxing retreat where time seems to slow down.
Here you can enjoy a variety of ways to spend time by the water, including a fishing pond, boat fishing, and sightseeing boats to enjoy the scenery. From seasoned anglers to families with children trying fishing for the first time, everyone can spend a relaxing moment in their own style—that is the charm of this place.
3 recommended highlights
1. An extraordinary boating experience on the historic Edo moat
Hop in a rowboat and head to the historic moat that dates back to the Edo period. Drift leisurely across the water while gazing at the city center’s skyline, and you’ll forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In addition to boat fishing with lures or bait, it’s also recommended to use it as a sightseeing boat to enjoy the scenery without fishing.
2. A fully featured fishing pond for everyone, young and old
At the fishing pond on the floating pier, you can catch carp year-round, as well as rainbow trout in winter and ugui in summer. There is even a goldfish pond exclusively for children. Families with small kids can safely enjoy their first fishing experience. Rods and bait are available for rent, so you can drop by empty-handed.
3. Fun even after you catch fish! Unique services
Fish caught in the pond can be exchanged on the spot for prizes. The more you catch, the better the chance of receiving a nice gift. There are also unique touches such as selling the original wooden lure 「スギたまご 爆鳥」 for fishing and streaming live cameras that show the underwater environment.
