An Aquarium of Sanin Excellence, Famous for the Beluga's Bubble Rings

About this spot

Located in Gotsu City, adjacent to Hamada City, this aquarium is nationally known for the "bubble ring" performances created by belugas. Featuring exhibits centered on marine life from the Sanin region, it offers abundant family-friendly attractions including large aquarium tanks with schools of fish and interactive touch zones. Even in midsummer, the interior is cool, making it a locally popular spot to spend the afternoon comfortably before the fireworks. Checking the official website in advance for beluga show times will help you plan your schedule more easily. For children, this visit may become an equally memorable experience as the fireworks themselves.

浜田みなとまつり花火大会は、浜田漁港7号岸壁周辺を会場に開催される、浜田市の夏の夜を代表する祭りの花火です。港を舞台に打ち上がる花火は、背後の山並みと目の前に広がる日本海の両方を背景に夜空を彩ります。漁港ならではの開けた空間で花火を正面に見られるのが魅力で、海風に乗って届く打ち上げ音は港町の夏の迫力を存分に伝えてくれます。フィナーレが夜空を照らす瞬間は、この1日のすべての締めくくりにふさわしい光景です。
