Watch Fireworks Launched from Kasumi's Sea from the Beachside

About this spot

The climactic highlight of the Kasumi Furusato Matsuri—the fireworks festival at sea. The launch site is offshore at Kasumi Beach, and from the shore, the fireworks ascend straight from the sea surface skyward, offering a composition unique to seafire fireworks. Each time the sound of waves pauses, a booming explosion reaches the beach, and with each burst of large colorful lights, cheers rise. In the homey atmosphere characteristic of a fishing village summer festival, the moment of looking up at the night sky alongside local residents is extraordinary. Even after the finale ends, it's recommended to linger on the beach for a while, enveloped by the lingering scent of sea breeze and the sound of waves.

Tips

Confirm the event time from the official announcement on the day (schedule to be determined—check Kami Town tourism information in advance). In severe weather, the event may be canceled or postponed. After the event ends, the area around Kasumi Station becomes crowded, so departing at staggered times is reassuring. Bring a light as the ground will be dark. Dress warmly as evening sea breezes can be chilly.

Best time to visit

Align with the start time. Secure your viewing spot at least 30 minutes before the opening.
