Watch fireworks in the port town night sky overlooking the Japan Sea
About this spot
The fireworks display held at Setana Ward Honmachi in Setana Town, marking the culmination of the Fishing Light Festival. From 8 PM, fireworks light the clear night sky along the Japan Sea, where streetlights are few. A port town summer festival continued with wishes for safe fishing and regional development. Alongside the sound of waves and scent of salt air, fireworks viewed by family huddled together have a simple beauty distinct from urban fireworks displays.
