Dive Into the “Sui! Sui! Sui!” Festival in Yanagawa: Held annually, this festival is a celebration of Yanagawa’s iconic canals, with the concept of “playing with water, relaxing by the water, and feeling the water.” Various events and activities allow for a deeper appreciation of the city’s waterways.
For a more active experience, enjoy a SUP (Stand-Up Paddleboard) cruise through the calm canals (¥500, advance registration required), or try water yoga (¥500, advance registration required). Canoeing and remote-controlled boat exhibitions and experiences are also available for free. Teams of nine can participate in a timed Donkobune boat race (¥500, advance registration required).
The festival also features a riverside market where food trucks gather, offering a variety of meals and refreshments. At Ashiyu Park, visitors can try their hand at campfire building (October 28, ¥500, advance registration required).
A connecting ferry service will be available between Ashiyu Park and the Cultural Center, with one-way tickets priced at ¥200.
