Join us for an unforgettable evening at the Cookout on the stunning sands of Kikugahama Beach! As the sun melts into жар Sea of Japan in a blaze of pink and orange, gather around a roaring bonfire and savor campfire-cooked meals that celebrate the sea and the season. Freshly grilled squid, corn on the cob brushed with shoyu butter, and local vegetables roasted in foil fill the air with irresistible aromas. Classic s'mores—made with Japanese chocolate and matcha marshmallows—complete the feast. Our team provides all equipment and ingredients; you bring only your appetite and spirit.
Throughout the night, enjoy beach games for all ages: volleyball under floodlights, sandcastle contests judged by starlight, and scavenger hunts that lead to hidden glow sticks. Live acoustic music by local artists—ukulele, shamisen, and soft vocals—creates the perfect backdrop for connection. Join interactive workshops on fire-starting techniques, sustainable beach practices, and even basic sushi rolling using foraged seaweed. Our friendly coordinators ensure every moment is safe, inclusive, and joyful.
As the fire crackles and waves whisper, share stories, make new friends, and let the ocean breeze carry your worries away. This isn’t just a cookout—it’s a celebration of community, nature, and the simple joy of being together.
