Kelp harvesting season begins in Hokkaido

Harvested kelp is unloaded from a fishing vessel at a port in Nemuro on Japan's northernmost main island of Hokkaido on June 15, 2024. Japanese fishing vessels started harvesting the seaweed the same day in waters around Kaigara Island of the Russian-held Habomai islet group as this year's harvesting season began.
