Complete Dinner and Secure Viewing Spot, Savor the Summer Festival Atmosphere

About this spot

Yoshikawa Fishing Port (吉川漁港) is a small fishing port nestled in the fishing village of Yoshikawa Town, Konan City. On the day of the summer festival, festival food stalls and vendor stands line the port, creating a lively local atmosphere. The key to this course is arriving in early evening, finishing dinner while securing good viewing spots for the fireworks. Since the fireworks are fully visible from the breakwater and surrounding areas of the port, arrive early to secure a good location. Early evening at the fishing port offers a quiet scene of moored fishing vessels that transforms into a festival glow as night approaches, gradually building anticipation toward the main event. Enjoy the summer festival atmosphere alongside local residents while waiting for the show to begin.

Fireworks details

2026年7月26日(日)21時から25分間、吉川漁港堤防から打ち上がる香南市吉川夏まつり花火大会のフィナーレです。太平洋に向かって開けた漁港の堤防から見上げる花火は、海面に光を映しながら夜空に大きく開き、漁師町の夏まつりならではの温かみがあります。コンパクトな地元の夏まつりだからこそ、会場との距離が近く、花火の音と光を体全体で感じられるのがこの大会の魅力です。波の音と花火の轟音が重なる25分間は、家族みんなの夏の記憶に刻まれる特別な時間になるでしょう。フィナーレの光が消えたら、満天の星空の下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香南市または大会主催者の公式発表で当日確認を。終了後は会場周辺の道路が混み合うことがあるため、時間差での帰宅がおすすめです。堤防は暗く足元が不安定な箇所もあるため、子どもの手をしっかりつなぎ、スマホのライトで足元を照らしながら移動しましょう。翌日が月曜日のため、帰路の時間も事前に計画しておくと安心です。

Tips

On the festival day, the venue area gets crowded, so arriving by 5 PM is recommended. The number of food stalls varies by year, so purchasing beverages and light refreshments beforehand is wise. Locate restroom facilities early. The breakwater and port area become dark, so a small flashlight or smartphone light is helpful for your return journey.

Best time to visit

Approximately 3 hours 15 minutes required. From dusk until the fireworks begin, you can thoroughly enjoy the fishing port's summer festival atmosphere.
