2026 Nachikatsuura Fireworks Festival: A Full-Day Course
Centered on the Nachikatsuura Fireworks Festival held on Tuesday, August 11, 2026, this course lets you enjoy the World Heritage Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine and the bounty of the sea in a single day. During the day, visit Nachi Falls, Seiganto-ji Temple, and Kumano Nachi Taisha Shrine, and in the afternoon, encounter fresh seafood at the tuna market at Nachikatsuura Fishing Port. In the evening, walk through the main shopping street, then have dinner and stake out a spot around Blue Beach Nachi before sunset. At night, fireworks color the summer night sky from Nachi Fishing Port. This one-day plan, unique to Nachikatsuura in the Nanki region, lets you enjoy both a World Heritage pilgrimage and fireworks over the sea.
