The "Hamaori-sai" (Beach Descent Festival) at Chigasaki Beach is a traditional festival held early in the morning on the third Monday of July (Marine Day, a national holiday) at Chigasaki Nishihama Beach.
Designated as an Intangible Folk Cultural Property of Kanagawa Prefecture, the event features the gathering of approximately 40 portable shrines—ranging from small to large—from Chigasaki City and Samukawa Town, culminating in a purification ritual known as *misogi*, where the shrines are carried into the sacred waters of the sea.
