Kamakura Summer Beach

in Yuigahama & Zaimokuza

 

 Umi no Ie period   July 1 - Aug 31

 

  Kamakura's wide beaches draw visitors from all around the Tokyo and Shonan regions.  Enjoy lunch and casual dining at the temporary beach-houses on the strand, which are called "Umi no ie". They are eateries and bars built on the beach during summer, some of which prepare locker rooms.

  Nearly 20 Umi-no-ie houses and Food Court will stand by the peak of summer and open everyday until the end of August.

 

Preparation in June

  Constraction of Umi no Ie has been progressing steadily since the beginning of June.  They are all planned to open on the july 1st.

 

Open in Jul. & Aug.

 Fireworks Display  July 10th, 2019

 

  So many people could enjoy Kamakura's fire works display this year, 2019. Moderate wind blew off the smoke and the fire works could be seen clearly in the sky.

  Even so, the lowest fireworks that explode in the water were good to see.

  Besides fireworks set off from the surface of the sea, some running boats blow up the firework-balls by dropping them into the water.  That is Kamakura's fireworks.
