Chakkirako () is a dance performed at a festival in Miura, Japan, to celebrate the New Year and bring good fortune, especially in fishing.

In 1976, Japan's government recognized this dance as an intangible cultural heritage to be protected. In 2009, it has been inscribed in UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. In 2022, the inscription was revoked and the dance incorporated into the broader subject of Furyu-odori.
