2026 Tadotsu Port Festival Fireworks: A Full-Day Course
Centered on the Tadotsu Port Festival Fireworks held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, this is a full-day course to enjoy the Tadotsu and Marugame area from afternoon onward. In the afternoon, have lunch in the birthplace of Sanuki udon, then visit Marugame Castle, a renowned castle that retains one of Japan's oldest keep styles. After taking in the Seto Inland Sea view from atop the stone walls, take a leisurely stroll through the historic streets of the port town of Tadotsu. In the evening, grab a meal and stake out a viewing spot around Tadotsu Port, then in the night watch about 3,000 fireworks shells from the port as the Seto Inland Sea breeze blows. This is the definitive summer Kagawa plan, spent in a port town shaped by history and the blessings of the sea.
