Miura, city, Kanagawa ken (prefecture), east-central Honshu, Japan. It lies at the southern tip of the Miura Peninsula, just south of the city of Yokosuka farther north on the peninsula.
Miura was first mentioned in the 8th century. Its port of Misaki is a base for commercial deep-sea fishing, especially of tuna. Besides tuna, the city is well known for its locally grown radishes, and cabbages and watermelons are also produced. Jōga Island, in Aburatsubo Bay, is linked to the mainland at Miura by a large bridge. The island and bay, together with Keikyu Aburatsubo Marine Park and local beaches, help make Miura a popular tourist and recreational centre. The city also serves as a residential suburb for the expanding Tokyo-Yokohama metropolitan area to the north. Pop. (2005) 49,861; (2010) 48,352.
