At a scenic spot overlooking the Amakusa Islands nearby, see tonight's fireworks sea in daylight
About this spot
Located in the Hayasaki area near the southern tip of the Shimabara Peninsula, this park offers outstanding views of the Amakusa Islands across the Amakusa Sea. On clear days, the mountain ranges of Amakusa on the opposite shore appear within reach, creating striking contrast with the blue sea. Tonight's fireworks will launch above this very sea. Confirming the expanse and direction of the sea during the day will make your fireworks viewing all the more enjoyable. Relaxing in the pleasant sea breeze of the plaza while enjoying views of the sea's color and horizon provides a special pause in your day. The park is free to use and features a grassy area where children can run around.
Fireworks details
Name: マリンフェスタ口之津花火大会
Date & time: 7/18 (Sat) 20:30–
Venue: 南島原市・口之津港緑地公園
2026年7月18日(土)20時30分打ち上げ開始、マリンフェスタ口之津花火大会のクライマックスです。天草灘に面した口之津港から打ち上がる花火は、遮るものがない海上の夜空に大きく広がり、海面にも鮮やかな光が映り込みます。対岸に天草諸島の島影が浮かぶロケーションで見る花火は、島原半島の南端ならではの開放感があります。潮の香りと波の音が混ざり合う中で色とりどりの光が夜空に開く光景は、南島原の夏を締めくくるにふさわしいひとときです。昼間に眺めた天草灘の青い海が、夜は花火の光に染まる様子を、家族でじっくり楽しんでください。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は南島原市またはマリンフェスタの公式発表で必ず確認してください。終了後は会場周辺の道路と駐車場の出口が混み合います。花火終了後は焦らず公園内で余韻を楽しんでから、時間差での移動がおすすめです。帰り道の足元が暗くなるため、スマホのライトや懐中電灯を手元に用意しておきましょう。
Tips
About 5 minutes by car from the Kuchinotsu History and Folk Museum. Parking spaces available. In the strong summer sunlight, don't forget a hat and drinks. In areas with rocky footing, hold hands with young children. Check for restroom availability on site.
