2026 Innoshima Suigun Festival: Shimahi Matsuri (Island Lights Festival) - A Full-Day Course

This course centers on the Innoshima Suigun Festival: Shimahi Matsuri held on Sunday, September 20, 2026, and lets you spend a full day enjoying Innoshima, an island tied to the history of the Murakami Suigun (Murakami Navy). During the day, learn about the history of these pirate-warriors at Innoshima Suigun Castle, take in the spectacular view over the Seto Inland Sea from Mt. Shirataki, and unwind among seasonal flowers at Innoshima Flower Center. In the evening, cool off by the shore of Ohama Beach while grabbing a bite and securing your spot. Once night falls, take in the fireworks rising into the night sky from the Seto Inland Sea at a leisurely pace. This day, combining the history of the Suigun navy with fireworks over the Seto Inland Sea, is a fitting plan for a day of autumn's bounty.
