Ago Bay (英虞湾 Ago-wan?) is a bay in the city of Shima, Mie Prefecture, Japan. It is part of the Ise-Shima region.

The bay is known for its beauty and sees many tourists each year, in particular due to a train network owned by Kintetsu which runs trains from both Osaka and Nagoya to Kashikojima, an island in the bay.

Pearl cultivation was first invented in this bay by Kōkichi Mikimoto.
