Best seasons: spring sardine, early summer loquat (Fusa Biwa, prized since 1909 Imperial offering), summer rock oyster, autumn sanma, winter comfort foods. Plan 2-3 hours. Try from local shops, michi-no-eki, temple experiences. Photography sweet spot: 7am soft light at ports, golden hour at beaches.

Etiquette: wait in car when lines form, take trash, use local e-currency to support community. Nearby pairing: coastal drive + onsen + market.
