Wow, I didn’t realize how modern Fukuoka is! Our family just visited Japan for two weeks in Sep./Oct. We will have to seriously consider Fukuoka next time as my wife is Korean American and we see there is a ferry to Busan. A couple questions: 1. From CA, is flying to Haneda to Fukuoka the best way to get there that you recommend? 2. Are any of the beaches good for surfing or bogey boarding in early Oct. timeframe? 3. Are you fluent in Japanese? I lived in Tokyo for 4 years as a kid and studied abroad there for 1 year of college. It’s amazing how my Japanese comes back when we visit (it’s more conversational level though).

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

For flying, I'm not sure the airport you land before Fukuoka would make too big of a difference because you'll need an additional flight to get there anyways, but you can try looking up flights to Osaka, sometimes they're cheaper than Haneda or Narita, just depends on deals I think. The beaches I went to in the vlog are the only beaches I know of in that area! I wasn't there too long so I really didn't get a chance to see any waves, so you might have to ask around once you're there. And lastly, I'm not completely fluent in Japanese but I was born and raised in Japan so I understand it pretty well and can speak at a conversational level pretty comfortably

Thanks for sharing the great video and I’m definitely adding Fukuoka on my next trip to Japan! Quick question though, what kind of fins do you use for snorkeling? They look light/compact and something I’m looking for. Thx

You'll love Fukuoka! Hmm, the seasons change pretty quickly, I was there beginning of November and had a few hot days but it cooled down fast towards the end of my trip. Swimming "season" ends usually by September so you won't see many people in the water, but I found it to be warm compared to California in November

@@JessicaMiyukiArt thanks for the info, its helpful. I live in SoCal, so totally understand where you're coming from about Nov in SoCal being too cold to swim. Did you fly into Fukuoka or just take bullet train from Tokyo?

[@oatmylkmachiato]

Swimming season here typically ends around the start of Obon in August because the water becomes infested with jellyfish. Once the jellyfish population decreases, the water is usually too cold, and the sea conditions become rougher, which is why local guidelines advise against swimming. Thus, you won’t really see locals swimming during this time. The only people I see in the water outside the recommended swimming season are foreigners and tourists😅

Hello! May I know what month you went to the beaches? I’ll be going to Fukuoka next week and i’m not sure if we’ll be allowed to swim. Also, are there shower rooms around the beaches?

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

I was there first week of November and there wasn't anyone swimming! No one stopped me from going in the ocean, but just be careful of strong currents. The water temperature now looks pretty comfortable for a swim when I looked at some surf reports. Some beaches have showers but I'm not sure they're running when swimming season is "closed". Typically swimming season in Japan is from July to August (where all the beach huts and food kiosks are up) but some places are a bit longer, if a beach or some destination or beach gear rental shop has a website, they'll usually have "swimming season" listed. I hope that helped!

9:25 ここって遊泳禁止じゃなかった？ 間違ってたらごめんなさい。

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

遊泳禁止のサインは見当たらなかったし、近くにサーフィンスポットがあるので問題はないと思いました。でも初めてだったのでもしかしたら禁止のところだったのかもしれないですね。教えてくれてありがとうございます。

[@scaleartsg]

i must say you're a sight for sore eyes!

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

That's so kind! It might be the beautiful locations that help haha

二見ヶ浦は強い離岸流があるので、遊泳が禁止されています。 少し岸から離れただけで流されてしまいます。 二見ヶ浦で泳ぐことを人におすすめしないでください。 糸島で泳ぐなら、遠浅で砂が柔らかく子どもにも比較的安全な深江のビーチ、または波が穏やかで近くに遊覧船の発着所もある芥屋ビーチをお勧めいたします。

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

ありがとうございます。色々勉強になります。

Fukuoka is not for sightseeing. Very good for living.

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

Thank you! I’m not lucky enough to live there, but I found so many beautiful places to see and fun things to do during my short stay there

[@akas224]

so true!!

[@Nazliorcam]

Why is no one swimming? I do not understand😂

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

Swimming “season” was technically over when I was there so many people chose not to swim. But it was so nice!!

[@AlanSmith88888]

Damn. You can get lost in those eyes

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

I get lost in my brain

[@yann-soukaudet7675]

Actually dangerous to swim there, really strong currents, just go to Palm Beach instead it's a 5min walk.

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

Someone mentioned that in the comments! There weren't any signs and the people I asked there didn't mention it so I had no idea, I just heard you can surf there. Good to know!

Shikonoshima Dog's hamburgers, hotdogs and drinks are the poorest you will ever see. Over priced and very poor quality.

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

good to know! I don't usually eat hot dogs in Japan, but sometimes I like those american dogs (corn dogs) at a konbini

[@KI_2009]

Futamigaura is a sacred place and the gateway to Japan's gods. Look around you, Japanese people don't swim there.

[@JessicaMiyukiArt]

yeah they really don't swim after "swim season" ends. It's always been that way growing up there
