Start the summer day quietly in the Japanese garden with the gentle rustle of pines
About this spot
Just a short walk from Chigasaki Station, this green space retains the vestiges of a Meiji-era businessman's villa retreat. It features a tea house called Shouraiian (松籟庵) and a strolling Japanese garden, where the sound of wind rustling through the pine groves is wonderfully soothing and peaceful. It's the perfect place to pause and take a breath before heading out to the lively seaside. The grounds are open free to the public, and you can leisurely enjoy the seasonal flowers and pond scenery.
Fireworks details
Name: サザンビーチちがさき花火大会
Date & time: 8/1 (Sat) 19:20–20:10
Venue: 茅ヶ崎・サザンビーチちがさき
2026年8月1日(土)開催、湘南の夏の風物詩です。最大の見どころは、海に投げ込まれた花火が海面すれすれで扇形に開く名物「水中孔雀」。孔雀が羽を広げたような光が波間に映る光景は、海辺の大会ならではの美しさです。えぼし岩のシルエットと花火の共演を、波音とともに砂浜から楽しめば、湘南の夏の思い出は完璧です。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は茅ヶ崎市・大会公式の発表で確認を。終了直後は茅ヶ崎駅までの道と駅構内が大混雑します。浜で少し余韻を楽しんでからの帰宅か、辻堂駅方面へ歩く分散ルートも選択肢です。
Tips
About 5 minutes' walk from the south exit of Chigasaki Station. In midsummer, a stroll in the relatively cool late-morning hours is recommended. Tea service at the tea house is offered only on certain days, so check ahead if interested.
Best time to visit
About 1 hour required. Best during the pleasant late-morning hours in the shade
