2026 Asakuchi Fireworks Festival: A Full-Day Course
This is a full-day course centered on the Asakuchi Fireworks Festival, held on Saturday, November 7, 2026, letting you enjoy Yorishima-cho, a fishing town in Asakuchi City facing the Seto Inland Sea. At midday, walk across to Saburo-jima Island (三郎島), a small island connected to land by the tides, and experience the mystery of nature. Next, visit the Akkeshiso Habitat (アッケシソウ自生地), where you can observe up close a rare cluster of wetland plants, dyed a distinctive crimson in November. Known as one of the few habitats of its kind in Japan, it's a precious spot offering a seasonal view found only at this time of year. In the afternoon, stroll around Yorishima Fishing Port (寄島漁港) and savor fresh seafood, a specialty of this port town also known for oyster farming. In the evening, secure a spot while having dinner at Yorishima Port (寄島港), and enjoy the leisurely dusk view unique to November's early sunsets. At 18:15, fireworks rise into the clear autumn night sky, and the light reflected on the calm sea surface completes a beautiful finale. It's the definitive plan for late-autumn Yorishima, packed with island walking, rare nature observation, a port-town stroll, and seaside fireworks.
