Uozu Coast (魚津海岸)

Flow of the course

About this spot

Uozu Port is the launch site for tonight's fireworks display, and in the evening, festival food stalls from the Janto-Koi Uozu Festival line the port area. Sample Toyama Bay specialties such as white shrimp fried chicken and shrimp tempura from takeout vendors around the port while securing your viewing spot with a blanket. When the western sky glows at dusk, if the weather is clear, the silhouette of the Tateyama mountain range will float above the horizon of Toyama Bay, enriching the moments before the fireworks even further.

Tips

On the evening of the fireworks festival, surrounding roads and parking areas fill early. Public transportation is convenient – about 15 to 20 minutes on foot from Uozu Station on Ainokaze Toyama Railway (あいの風とやま鉄道・魚津駅) to the port. Popular food items at the stalls sell out quickly, so plan to get dinner between 5 and 6 PM. Check restroom locations in advance.

Best time to visit

Approximately 2 hours 30 minutes required. Just before and after sunset is the best time to enjoy the evening glow and the silhouette of the Tateyama mountains.
