Kikugahama Beach

Flow of the course

About this spot

A beautiful white sand and blue pine beach extending from the east side of Hagi Castle Ruins toward the Hagi Commercial Port. From the wide sandy beach facing the Japan Sea, you can see an unobstructed horizon, and at dusk, the sky and sea turn a magnificent orange, creating a spectacular sunset. Tonight, Kikugahama becomes the fireworks display venue. Head to the beach in the evening to secure a viewing spot while enjoying the fading sunset and anticipating the fireworks night to come. The sea breeze is refreshing, and the time spent sitting on the sand before the show begins is a precious moment of your summer Hagi journey.

Tips

Within walking distance from Michi-no-Eki Hagi Shii-Maート. On the fireworks display day, crowds increase around sunset, so secure a spot by 7 PM at the latest. It's strongly recommended to use restrooms early. The ground becomes dark at night, so having a smartphone light or small flashlight is reassuring.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour 15 minutes required. The Japan Sea sunset's colors change as time passes, so arriving early at the beach is recommended
