Japan Melon Picking

You can taste Shizuoka muskmelons, a brand famous in Japan, and feel rich!

You can enjoy melon picking from July to August at Kashima Harvest in Kurematsu-cho, Chūō-ku, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture. It is closely located to the Kanzanji area, which is a popular place around Lake Hamana.
The muskmelon, with its beautiful round shape and lovely mesh-patterned rind, is known as the king of fruits, and its cultivation requires a high level of skill and know-how. Visitors will experience melon picking while hearing directly from farmers about their carefully cultivated melons. You will pick one of the melons, which are raised in greenhouses and have a strong sweet taste, as a souvenir. After that, you can eat a cold, half-cut melon under the grapevine trellis.

This plan is available to foreign residents and tourists.
For all others, please make a reservation directly on the facility's official website.
The 2023 season is fully booked.
