2026 Sekishu Hamakko Summer Festival: A Full-Day Course
Centered on the 2026 Sekishu Hamakko Summer Festival held on Saturday, August 1, 2026, this course lets you enjoy a full day in Hamada City, which faces the Sea of Japan. During the day, take in sweeping views of the port town from the ruins of Hamada Castle, enjoy art appreciation at the Sekisho Art Museum, and then have fun as a family at Shimane Aquarium AQUAS, known for its white dolphins. After a stroll along Kitahama Coast before evening, secure a spot around Hamada Fishing Port in the evening while having dinner. The festival runs from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., and at 8:30 p.m. fireworks light up the night sky over Hamada Fishing Port, closing out a summer night full of the lively atmosphere unique to a fishing town's summer festival, carried on the breeze off the Sea of Japan.
