Take commemorative photos with Eboshi Rock and Southern C, then swim and reserve a viewing spot for the evening
About this spot
The signature beach of Chigasaki, known for Eboshi Rock (Ushio Island / 姥島) floating offshore and the "Southern C" monument, a romantic photo spot symbolizing marriage bonds. In the afternoon, enjoy swimming and wading in the waves, or take a break at a beach house while savoring the Shonan summer. As evening approaches, reserve your spot for fireworks viewing with a leisure sheet and wait for the show while gazing at the sunset sinking toward Eboshi Rock. As the sun sets and night falls, the beach transforms before your eyes—the main venue of the day where you can enjoy each moment's changing atmosphere.
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
During beach season, beach houses with showers and changing rooms are convenient (expect facility fees around 500 yen). On fireworks night, crowds swell significantly from evening onward, so secure your spot before around 5 PM. Safeguard valuables carefully.
Best time to visit
Plenty of time from afternoon through evening. The sunset hour is particularly beautiful
