Summary
The fireworks finale of the Shikabe Sea and Onsen Festival, held on August 15 within the grounds of Shikabe Fishing Port in Hokkaido. Some 3,200 shells rise from the breakwater side, close enough to the viewing area that bursts spread overhead. Free parking for 2,000 cars serves the site.
Overview
The festival draws an estimated 30,000 visitors across the day, and its highlight is a fireworks show launched from the fishing port's breakwater. Because the launch points sit near the viewing area, large bursts open almost overhead, with their light reflected on the water. Parking is free for 2,000 cars (500 within the grounds, 1,500 nearby, 8:45 am–10 pm) — follow the signs. From JR Shikabe Station, take the Hakodate Bus to Shikabe Shucchojo, which stops right by the venue. Check the official site for the start time and allow plenty of margin.
