About this event
The event "Sea Firefly Etajima Wonder Night 2026" will be held, where you can observe sea fireflies (Vargula hilgendorfii) emitting a mystical blue light. In this event, you can collect sea fireflies using a dedicated gathering kit and admire their beautiful glow on the nighttime beach. At Nagase Beach, a guide will carefully explain the ecology and collection methods of sea fireflies. After the instruction, participants can collect sea fireflies themselves and enjoy the mystical illumination in various ways. This program offers a special nighttime seaside experience while uncovering questions such as what kind of creatures sea fireflies are, why they glow, what they eat, and where they live.
