Sightseeing[]
There is a big Fireworks show in Tsukumi every year around July 19th. It is a really great fireworks show (I would say it's the best I have seen in Oita Prefecture), but the traffic is horrific so I would recommend staying at someone's place in Tsukumi if you can or if not, just plan to spend several hours in traffic both on the way there and on the way back.
Tsukumi is right by the ocean. There is a "dolphin park" (イルカ島 - irukajima) but I have never been there so I can't personally vouch for it. Apparently, you can swim with dolphins
