Viewing a Dug Harbor Considered One of Japan's Oldest

About this spot

A dug harbor built in the Edo period, among Japan's oldest of its kind. Ingeniously carved into the land, it represents advanced civil engineering for its time and continues to serve as an active fishing port supporting the community's livelihood today. You can experience both the simple charm of a fishing village and the historical significance of the port—a sight unique to Kochi.

Date & time: 8/15 (Sat) 19:00–21:00

Venue: 香南市・ヤ・シィパーク

2026年の香南市手結盆踊りは8月15日(土)19時から21時まで、道の駅やす「ヤ・シィパーク」を会場に開催されます。会場には地域特産品を扱う屋台が約30店並び、盆踊りが始まる前から祭りの雰囲気を盛り上げます。太鼓のリズムに合わせて浴衣姿の人々が輪になって踊る光景は、手結の海辺ならではの開放感にあふれた盆踊りです。海風を感じながら過ごす夏の夜は、家族の思い出にぴったりの時間になります。

Tips

駐車場は当日混み合うため、早めの到着がおすすめです。屋台は19時から21時の開催時間中に営業するため、夕食はここで済ませる計画でも十分楽しめます。海沿いは夜になると涼しくなるので、薄手の羽織ものがあると安心です。
