Car Hire in Hachinohe - Mini guide to Hachinohe

The harbour and early morning markets are lively and full if colour, and there are countless good restaurants and bars throughout the thriving city. The best way to make sure you catch it all it by car hire in Hachinohe.

The sacred Kabushima Shrine at the bay-side is a great place to visit if you don't mind sharing it with the 40,000 seagulls that reside there, and the Marient Museum is also worth a look while taking advantage of cheap car hire in Hachinohe. As well as offering a crash-course in the sea-life history of the city, the museum's fourth-floor restaurant boasts stunning views of Kabushima Island and the harbour, with local food to match.

The Hachinohe Museum and the Historic Nejo Plaza - which contains the ruins of a 1334 castle once inhabited by the ruler of the Oshu region - are also worth a look, and easy to reach by car rental in Hachinohe.
