Fukuoka
Fukuoka has the best of both worlds: city energy and easy access to nature. It's a short trip to the Itoshima Peninsula, with beaches, trails, and surf spots. When you're ready to unwind, try local specialties at the Yatai food stalls. It's a great place to try local specialties like Hakata ramen until the small hours.
The Goto Islands are a peaceful getaway, just 40 minutes by plane from Fukuoka. The islands have quiet beaches, volcanic landscapes, and a relaxed atmosphere. Takahama Beach is ideal for unwinding.
You can also visit Daihoji Temple or the UNESCO-designated churches, which showcase the area's unique history.
If wellness and nature are your thing, Beppu and Yufuin are a perfect match: known for their natural hot springs and co-working facilities. The scenic train ride from Fukuoka sets the tone for your stay.
Beppu's "Hells of Beppu" are a must-see, with colorful geothermal pools (like Chinoike Jigoku). In Yufuin, hike the trails for views of Mount Yufu and some peace and quiet.
Hyuga is a laid-back spot known for surfing. Isegahama Beach is popular for surfing and swimming, with nearby walking routes to Omi Shrine and Umagase Viewpoint.
In the evenings, the area around Hyugashi Station is lively, especially during the Hyottoko Summer Festival, which has performances and traditional music.
