Hamaorisai is a festival held in Chigasaki every July on Marine Day, and is also known as the "Dawn Festival." Starting from Samukawa Shrine and Tsurumine-hachiman Shrine, 38 mikoshi (portable shrines) will set out from 33 local shrines. The most memorable sight of the day comes in the early morning, at the moment when the mikoshi enters the water for the "misogi," or purification ceremony. The mikoshi entering the water to be purified, to hearty shouts of "Dokkoi, dokkoi," is truly a sight to behold.
