Enoshima Yacht Harbour

The Enoshima Yacht Harbour has beautiful Mount Fuji views so don’t get too distracted while at Tokyo 2020. People visit the Harbour for its gorgeous views alone. The marina was built specifically for the Olympic sailing event of 1964 and has been a huge spot for yacht racing ever since. This will be the second time the Harbour will be used for the Olympics dubbing it a “legacy venue.” Back in 1964, the sport was called “Yachting.” But since 2000, its name has been changed to “Sailing.”

Japan first participated in the Olympic Sailing event in 1936. A memorable story from 1964 that happened at the Enoshima Yacht Harbour, was when two brothers from Sweden, who were slated to medal, turned around during the race to rescue fellow competitors whose boat capsized due to the weather. People said they should’ve received a “Gold Medal for Humanity.” The Enoshima Yacht Harbour has new Olympic memories to make for Tokyo 2020. If you continue reading, this page will offer you more information on the Sailing games for the Summer Olympics, as well as some useful information about Tokyo that you may need while you’re there.

Weather During The 2020 Olympics In Tokyo

The weather predictions for Tokyo 2020 are hotter than usual. A normal Tokyo summer has highs in the nineties and lows in the seventies (Fahrenheit). Rain, heat, and humidity are expected to be a factor so pack accordingly. Make sure to stay hydrated and wear sunscreen. Light clothing, hats, visors, an umbrella or raincoat and things to help keep you cool and dry should be considered when packing for your trip. Little fans might be really helpful with the hot temperatures and if you can bring your own, even better, as prices for them at the games are sure to be higher, like the temperatures.
