The 4th day of the 5th month in the lunar calendar is called "Yukkanuhi" in Okinawa, where people pray to the sea gods and hold the Haarii to wish for a good catch. Haarii is a traditional event where boats called Sabani or dragon boats are used for racing. There are different types of Haarii, including Ugani (御願) Haarii, occupational Haarii, and Agari (上) Haarii. In the occupational Haarii, local business groups compete. Each company's unique characteristics are on display, making it a spectacle worth seeing.
