Marine Town (located in Ito on the Izu peninsula) is a cute tourist destination. It's perfect for finding last-minute gifts, and has quite a few good little eateries and sweets shops. My favorite little spot was a brewery that features seasonal beers and offers tastings! Their sakura beer is definitely worth a try if you're in town. It also features a spa and offers boat tours of the bay. Enjoy a free foot bath while overlooking the bay while taking in the great scenery.
