The start of the summer season in Japan brings with it a move to beachside activities Ð surfing, sun-bathing, partying, eating, games and other recreational activities. This collection of full colour photographs taken by One Ichihashi captures the activities around the summer seaside resort of Kamakura a few hundred kilometres south of Tokyo. Beach shacks are raised, food and drinks are prepared and served, fire-works explode, browned beach goers stare out into the ocean, fires are lighted, life-guards watch the swimmers and lazy evenings are enjoyed. p, ills 100 colour, 18 x 24 cm, pb, Japanese.

This photobook captures the beautiful and nostalgic scenery of Japanese summer seaside life, specifically centered around a beach house (umi no ie) in Kamakura. Created through a collaboration between acclaimed photographer Orie Ichihashi, who captured the evocative imagery, and editor Kaori Akazawa, known for her work on numerous hit titles, the book evokes a sense of warmth and affection for everyday summer moments. It portrays days spent by the sea that feel familiar and beloved rather than exotic.
