Lesser-Known Viewing Spots
The sandy shore of Nijigahama Beach, the main venue, is an excellent location for viewing the fireworks up close, but heavy crowds are expected. For those who want to avoid the crowds and enjoy the fireworks at a more relaxed pace, here are three lesser-known viewing spots recommended by local residents.
Wakaba Park This park is located a short distance from Nijigahama Beach and is known as a relatively uncrowded spot where you can watch the fireworks in a calm setting. It is somewhat far from the launch site, but the open views allow you to take in the display as a whole at your leisure.
Hikari Sports Park Observation Plaza From the observation plaza at Hikari Sports Park, located on higher ground, you can look down over Nijigahama Beach and watch the fireworks at the same time. It is recommended for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the fireworks along with the night scenery, away from the bustle of the main venue. It should also be relatively easy to reach by car.
Embankment along the Shimada River (toward Mitsui–Hikari Station) Along the Shimada River, particularly between Mitsui and the direction of Hikari Station, the embankment is a little distance from the fireworks launch site, but there are few obstructions to the view, allowing you to watch the display in a relaxed setting. Local residents often use this area, and spreading out a leisure sheet to enjoy the fireworks picnic-style is another good option.
These lesser-known spots are also expected to be moderately crowded on the day, so arriving early is recommended.
