Taiji (the town featured in documentary 'The Cove') as well as Futo (as is mentioned in the documentary 'Earthlings.') There are also a number of smaller villages that hunt dolphins, both for meat as well as the captive dolphin industry.
The Japanese have only hunted dolphins on this sort of scale since the 1940's, so their argument that it is tradition and a much needed source of food, is not valid as dolphin meat is heavily contaminated with Mercury.
