The area of the sea is approximately 2,500 square kilometres (970 sq mi), and the depth is around 40 metres (130 ft), however in some areas the depth exceeds 100 metres (330 ft). An important route crosses from the Kinki region to the Chugoku, Shikoku, and Kyushu regions.

There are many rocky reefs, which are good fishing grounds for sea bream. Sand lance are often caught, and Tsukudani (sand lance simmered in soy sauce and mirin) is a specialty of Banshu, but production has been declining due to the damage to sand lance habitat caused by the extraction of sea sand.[4]
