Yoshikawa Fishing Port

Flow of the course

About this spot

Yoshikawa Fishing Port is a small fishing harbor nestled in the fishing town of Konan City's Yoshikawa-cho, and on the day of the summer festival, it fills with festival food stalls and vendors, wrapped in a distinctly local liveliness. The key point of this course is arriving in the evening to have dinner while claiming a spot to view the fireworks. Since the fireworks can be seen head-on from the port's breakwater and surrounding space, secure a good spot early. At dusk, the fishing port's quiet scenery of moored fishing boats is joined by festival lights, a time when the mood gradually builds toward the night. Enjoy the summer festival atmosphere alongside the locals while waiting for the show to begin.

Tips

The area around the venue gets crowded on the day of the summer festival, so it's recommended to arrive early, around 5 p.m. Since the number of food stalls varies from year to year, it's reassuring to stock up on drinks and snacks beforehand. Check the restroom location early. The breakwater and harbor area get dark underfoot, so a small flashlight or your phone's light will help on the way back.

Best time to visit

About 3 hours 15 minutes. From dusk until the fireworks begin, take your time enjoying the atmosphere of the fishing port's summer festival.
