The major surrounding islands are accessible by ferry including Toshijima and Sugashima, two larger more populous islands, as well as Kamishima and Sakatejima, two smaller more remote isles. Toba, which has been continuously inhabited since the Jomon period, was a castle fortress in the 16th century for the Kuki family and their patriarch, Kuki Yoshitaka, who seized rule of the city from pirates. Many serene beaches stretch out along the coast of the mainland and islands where the water is perfect for swimming, wading, or to simply admire. Mikimoto Pearl Island, a small island in Ise Bay offshore of Toba, is said to be the birthplace of cultured pearl aquaculture, or aquafarming.
