"A part of Mikawa Bay's coastline in Nishio City, Aichi Prefecture. Maeshima Island was once known as ""Rabbit Island"" because of the 400 rabbits that roamed freely. Famous for its clams, this popular clamming spot gets about 70,000 visitors a year. The season lasts over an extended period from early March to early August. A barbecue area is available for you to have a clambake with your harvest. This is one of Maeshima's highlights."
