Stroll through Tsuda Pine Forest (国の名勝・万葉の松原), a nationally renowned scenic site, and enjoy the blue Seto Inland Sea and white sand
About this spot
A historically significant scenic site praised in the Man'yō Collection (万葉集), representing Kagawa Prefecture's iconic white sand and green pines coastal landscape. The pine forest, developed as Kotobayashi Park (県立琴林公園), stretches for approximately 900 meters, with mature pines framing the beach and Seto Inland Sea against the summer sky. Adjacent to the developed swimming beach, the shade of the pine trees offers a pleasant coolness while gazing at the sea, perfect for summer tourism. Tonight's fireworks festival will be held at this very pine forest and beach venue, so gaining familiarity with the layout and atmosphere during the day will ease nighttime navigation. Leisurely enjoy walking through this precious coastal forest designated as a nationally renowned scenic site and natural monument.

2026年8月22日(土)20時から30分間、津田の松原と津田の松原海水浴場を会場に開催されるさぬき市津田まつりのフィナーレを飾る花火大会です。約600発の花火が瀬戸内海の夜空に次々と打ち上がり、穏やかな海面に光の揺らぎが映し出されます。国の名勝に指定された白砂青松の松原を背景に上がる花火は、都市の花火大会とは異なる風情があり、松の木々の合間から見上げる光景も格別です。さぬき市の夏まつりのクライマックスとして地元の人に愛されてきた30分間を、潮風とともに砂浜から楽しみましょう。フィナーレの余韻が収まったら、足元に気をつけながら松林を抜けて帰路につきましょう。
Tips
荒天時の開催可否は大会主催者の公式発表で事前に確認を。終了後は会場周辺の道路が混雑するため、JR讃岐津田駅への徒歩帰宅か、時間差での車での移動がおすすめです。松林内は終了後に照明が少ないため、小さなライトを持参すると安全です。砂浜はしゃがんで観覧するとより正面から花火が見えます。
