琴平神社

This shrine is dedicated to Kompira-sama (Ōmononushi-no-Mikoto), a powerful maritime deity who protects seafarers, fishermen, and travelers on their journeys. Visitors come to pray for safe passage across water, successful fishing expeditions, and protection during travel, making it especially significant in Kochi's coastal culture. The shrine serves as a spiritual anchor for the local fishing community and those whose livelihoods depend on the sea, offering blessings for both safe voyages and bountiful catches.
