Stroll through the port town while feeling the fishing harbor scenery and Seto Inland Sea breeze

About this spot

Hinase is an ancient fishing village with active fishing boats lined up in the port, where you can experience the vibrant fishing culture of the Seto Inland Sea up close. A leisurely walk along the harbor road offers views of the calm Seto Inland Sea overlooking the Hinase Archipelago—a quietness and richness rarely found in urban areas. The sea landscape dotted with oyster cultivation rafts, symbols of Hinase, is also a notable sight. Slowly building anticipation for tonight's fireworks, enjoy the simple charm of the port town with your family.

Venue: JR日生駅前港・備前市

Shells: approx. 2,500

ひなせみなとまつりのクライマックスを飾る花火大会です。2026年8月13日(木)20時から20時40分まで、JR日生駅前港から約2,500発が打ち上がります。穏やかな瀬戸内海を舞台に開く花火は、海面にも鮮やかな光を映し、港町の夏祭りならではの情緒があります。漁港と島々を背景にした開放的な景観の中で見る花火は、家族みんなの夏の記憶に深く刻まれることでしょう。約40分間のプログラムが終わったら、潮の香りが漂う夜の港でしばらく余韻を楽しんでから帰路につきましょう。

Tips

荒天時の開催可否は備前市または大会主催者の公式発表で当日確認してください。終了後はJR日生駅や周辺道路が大変混雑します。フィナーレ後はすぐに移動せず、少し時間をおいてから動くと混雑を避けやすくなります。足元が暗い場所もあるため、スマホのライトや小型ライトを活用して安全に帰りましょう。

Tips

You can explore the area within a 5-minute walk from JR Hinase Station. The summer sun is strong, so don't forget a hat and sunscreen. The harbor walls require attention to footing, so hold hands with small children. Some areas in the fishing port are working zones, so follow no-entry signs.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour 15 minutes required. The afternoon sea breeze is pleasant, and the calm Seto Inland Sea scenery is enjoyable during this time period.
