Sagami Bay (相模湾) lies south of
Kanagawa Prefecture in central
Japan, with the
Miura Peninsula to its east and the
Izu Peninsula to its west.
A branch of the warm
Kuroshiro (Black Current) warms the bay, allowing it to host
marine organisms typical of more southerly regions and giving a mild
climate to the land bordering the bay. The maximum depth of the bay is
about 700 meters.
