Sea Day in Japan is an annual holiday celebrated on the third Monday in July. Its roots go back to the distant past, in 1876, when the Japanese emperor on the steamer "Meiji" toured the northern prefectures and safely returned to the port of Yokohama on July 20. This date was immortalized in 1941 under the name "Maritime Jubilee".
After the revision of the law relating to national holidays in Japan, since 1996, 20 July in the country becomes the Day of the Sea and an official holiday. The symbol of the holiday is a flag depicting a paper boat made of blue, red, yellow and green colors.
In 2003, Sea Day in Japan was postponed to the third Monday in July. This holiday is accompanied by numerous solemn events, the opening of new marine structures, congratulatory speeches addressed to all those whose activities are in any way connected with the sea element.
