2026 Kashima Shrine Enshrinement Fireworks Festival: A Full Day Itinerary
A one-day course to enjoy Minabe, a town in Hidaka District, Wakayama Prefecture, known as a plum-producing region, centered around the Kashima Shrine Enshrinement Fireworks Festival held on Saturday, August 1, 2026. At midday, enjoy lunch at the plum-themed roadside station and learn about plum history; in the afternoon, savor seaside time at Senri Beach, known for sea turtle landings. Visit Kashima Shrine, tonight's fireworks venue, and in the evening, purchase dinner near the coast.
