Yokohama and Kamakura Souvenirs: 10 Items Compared by Price and Shelf Life (2026)

This article contains advertising (affiliate links).

Among Yokohama and Kamakura souvenirs (omiyage), the longest-lasting are the Biscout from Bashamichi Jubankan (90 days from the production date) and Yokohama Harbour from Ariake (60 days). Kiyoken’s shumai (steamed dumplings) must be eaten within 17 hours of production, and Chikaramochiya’s Gongoro Chikaramochi in Kamakura expires the day you buy it, so those suit a gift you hand over on a set day. The price per piece runs from about ¥49 for the shumai and ¥85 for the Chikaramochi up to about ¥238 for the Biscout and Yokohama Harbour.
