Yume Port (Ishikari City) has a tourist information center located in the town of Ishikari Beach. There is a shop which sells Ishikari's local specialties (processed foods, beverages, and fresh vegetables.) They proudly show off their local characters, "Sake-taro" and "Sake-ko". Sake stands for salmon in and "taro" and "ko" are traditional suffixes to denote male and female. Sturgeon come to the Ishikari River to breed (its eggs are caviar), and a big, stuffed sturgeon is displayed in the center. In summer, people can use the center's bicycles for free. It is open every day except over New Year period.
