View approximately 3,000 fireworks from the white sandy beach, with light reflecting on the waves creating a uniquely seaside spectacle

About this spot

The Keino Matsubara Fireworks Festival held on July 25, 2026 (Saturday) launches approximately 3,000 fireworks into the night sky above the Seto Inland Sea, with the white sandy beach of the National Scenic Site Keino Matsubara (慶野松原) as the venue. The open venue spreading with sand beach and sea has nothing obstructing it, allowing you to feel the power of the fireworks bursting large across the night sky with your entire being. The landscape where the light of the fireworks reflecting on the waves mingles with the silhouettes of the pine forest behind is a beauty unique to this venue. Enjoy the climax of a summer Awaji Island night accompanied by the sea breeze crossing the Seto Inland Sea and the sound of waves.
