I absolutely love Fukuoka. It has some amazing beaches. Amazing food. After Tokyo it’s my favourite place to visit
I totally agree! The water was so nice, super warm all the way into November too!
Thanks for making this. I love Fukuoka, and have seen lots of vlogs, but none of them captured the city quite like yours did. Nice job :) I also enjoyed your general style and narration. Very engaging!
What kind words! Thank you so much 😁 Fukuoka is such a cool spot, I hope to visit again someday
Totally agree, I cant wait to visit Fukuoka this year. Thank you for sharing your video!
Thank you for watching!! I hope you have an incredible time in Fukuoka :)
福岡のいろいろな場所を紹介してくれて有難うございます。感謝します。
Thank you for introducing various places in Fukuoka. I'm so grateful.
本当?うぁー嬉しい、ありがとう〜
Your journey is so beautiful! I can't wait for the next part of it!!
Thank you so much!! I just got back from another Japan trip so I'll be editing those videos soon :)
Lovely video! I was considering Fukuoka as one of the stops for my next trip to Japan and your video convinced me that’s worth to go there! Generally I’m looking for locations off the beaten path for my next trip. Happy for recommendations and thanks for the video! 🙏 😊
Yeah it’s not as popular as Tokyo, Osaka, or Kyoto but still such a cool place to visit! I hope you have a great time there!!
Fukuoka looks so prestigious and Jessica you always make the ocean and beach look so inviting. I’m intrigued by Japanese history and customs so thank you for your beautiful expose’. ❤😊
Thank you for watching! Japanese history is absolutely amazing, I learn new things all the time that blow my mind
You’re really out here living your best life aren’t you 😂 I’ve always wanted to go here so thanks for this tour 🙏🙏
I'm pretty sure you can take the ferry from Busan!! But maybe flying is more convenient lol. You'd love it here though so definitely visit!
Incredible. Loved seeing your products and enjoyed your narrative. I want to go to Fukuoka! Wonderful.
Glad you enjoyed it! I hope you get to visit some day, it's such a cool place :)
Thank you for coming my prefecture! Fukuoka is really worth visiting! Please come again :)
I loved my time in Fukuoka, it's such a cool place!! I will definitely be back :D
This is such a chill and relaxing vid! I'm going to Japan for the first time in Oct but never thought of checking out Fukuoka. After watching your vid I might just plan a quick 2-3 day stop over there instead! Also, I can't help but feel like someone here has a sweet tooth with all the ice cream/dessert/snack recs haha - love it though, keep up the vids!
Thank you! And you definitely should check out Fukuoka, there’s so many things to do!! And yes I’m a snack queen haha it’s hard not to be when all the snacks in Japan are so tasty
Hiya Jessica, lovely video about Fukuoka! I lived in Fukuoka for a couple of years so this brings back memories, I loved chilling at Futamigaura beach, hiking in Itoshima, and running in Ohori Park^^ Looking forward to more of such gems from you!
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Fukuoka is such a fun place, that's so cool you lived there!
So lovely! :O
Thank you!! :)
So many nice spot to visit in Japan :)
So true! Always so many fun things and places to explore
Very well made video. Super informative and fun to watch. (I will be going to Fukuoka (again) in November).
Thank you, glad it was helpful! And I hope you have a great time!!
Astonishing! Hey friend, big thanks for sharing that video! Watched it all, completely mesmerized! Subscribed to your channel as well!
🥹🥹 reading that made me so happy :) thank you for the support!!
Did not know about Fukuoka, went there with my family last summer, loved it. Plan to go back for sure. Canal Center was awesome, and the restaurants rocked...
Fukuoka was off my radar for so long too! So glad I visited, and I agree Canal City is great!
Fokouka the best,
I want to go here too
It's such a cool place! I really enjoyed my time there
Thank you for sharing. Fukuoka is on my list. Especially want to try the street vendors there (Yatai)
You should! The food smelled sooo so good, I wish I had more time to try them all
Thanks for posting this super informative/vlog style video of your trip to Fukuoka. It's helpful for travelers like myself who are trying to plan a trip. After visiting Tokyo/Kyoto last year, I can't wait to go back to Japan and visit some other cities like Fukuoka.
In November is the weather/water usually still warm? I definitely want to swim/snorkel while visiting so want to make sure the water is warm when I go. Thanks!
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?
I just watched! You are my kind of girl! Fun amazing episode. I love APA hotels:) I'll be flying to Tokyo next week and making my way slowly down to Fukoka
Oh nice! You're right in time for summer festivals :) hopefully it won't be too hot when you're there!
@JessicaMiyukiArt I visit twice a year. I am doing the Shiminami kaido this trip. I embrace the hot and Cold anytime 😊
Ohhh the shimanami kaido!! Are you going by bicycle?
@JessicaMiyukiArt yep!! I'm so excited can't wait!! Flying Business Class to Tokyo next week staying yokohama a bit before making way to Hiroshima
@@JessicaMiyukiArt you can join 🤗
Really enjoyed your video! Do you think I can get the most of fukoka in 3 nights? Including a day trip to sakurai futamigaura beach?
You can definitely get a feel for it but might not be able to see everything that you want to. But Sakurai Futamigaura is a must see! You might be able to hit a bunch of places on the bus ride back
I am happy as a resident who is enjoying Fukuoka very much. I was surprised to see you swimming in the late autumn sea! The sea of Itoshima in May is very clear, so it is recommended at that time. I'm uploading a short video on my channel.
Thank you for watching!! I'd love to visit Fukuoka again, so possibly in May based on your recommendation!
Lovee your videoss!! Where do you get your swimsuits from??
Which ones? I loooove PQ for swimming and tanning, the fabric is super nice, but sometimes I'll wear cheaper brands for surfing since the salt water and wetsuits seem to wear them out quickly. I also have a 25% off code you can use for PQ!! PQLOVESJESSICA25 hopefully this link works, it's through rakuten click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=BXWo0EBQkpY&offerid=1529566.4&bids=1529566.4&type=3&subid=0
Best? U kidding? Barely scratched the surface love lol.
Nice vid though.
Hahahah your youtube handle! Love it
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?
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!
🎉
🥳
Is it possible to go to futamigaura beach in the morning & dazaifu tenmangu the same day? Planning my trip😊
Hmmm.. you probably could if you started the day early but I'm not sure you'd have much time in either location, they are in opposite directions from Hakata / the main Fukuoka city center. If you have other things on your list for your trip, I would recommend grouping them together if they're close in distance!
14:32 I often go there on my morning walks.
It's so peaceful! Where does it connect to? I wasn't quite sure so I turned around a bit after the amusement park
@@JessicaMiyukiArt If you turn left on this road, it will lead you to Kamado (Demon slayer)Shrine. If you turn right it will lead you to the back of the Kyushu National Museum.However, Kamado Shrine is far away.
4:05😺
pika pika ⚡︎
I only see cold water cold water cold water 🥶 , you’re so beautiful btw ❤️.
The water was at least 77F (25C) that day! Maybe warmer. I’m used to California water where it’s barely 60F
@@JessicaMiyukiArt 25 it’s pretty decent, you’ll like New Zealand then , even in summer the water is pretty cold , everything is beautiful and blue and clear but … cold 🥶.
i must say you're a sight for sore eyes!
That's so kind! It might be the beautiful locations that help haha
What camera do you use? : )
I used my iphone (15 pro) and my GoPro Hero 10!
their beaches are amazing feel sad that locals couldnt enjoy as you but i guess japanese working culture were drawn to be working hard and hardly have time to enjoy these free stuff that nature gives ya
I also think that after "swimming season" ends, people are worried about jellyfish, rough seas, and cooler water temps. Not that it's always the case, but many people are used to thinking this way (at least when I grew up in Japan)
Hi, just came across your video. I live in one of those places. Did you really have fun here in Fukuoka?🤔I'm curious because here is nothing special compared to Tokyo, Osaka etc...
I did! Maybe I have a different perspective since I grew up in Kawasaki. I liked how clean the ocean water was and the beaches were very pretty. Shonan water can be very brown and not clear, and the sand is also very dark and sometimes sticky. My favorite ramen style is also tonkotsu and I like how the food in Fukuoka was different, I like trying food from all different regions in Japan. I think I prefer the trains in Kanagawa/Tokyo area since they are more convenient, but I am thinking about moving to Fukuoka one day, I just want to see peak summer season since I love to surf!
@@JessicaMiyukiArt Oh you grew up in Kawasaki. I used to live in Tokyo. Indeed I didn't like Shonan beach either. Here the beaches are clean so that snorkeling and scuba diving are nice but the waves are small typically. I used to surf here before. Fukuoka is a great place to live, not for sightseeing at least.
@@JessicaMiyukiArt P.S there are no waves during summer. It's so calm. Lol.
Typhoon season which is around September and October brings nice swells. Other than that, during winter season is better for surfing.
@@mokumiki9916 Ohhh maybe I just missed it, I was there first week of November and it was really calm everywhere. But the water was so warm! I live in California now and I usually wear a wetsuit for most of the year, maybe a couple months with a springsuit
@@JessicaMiyukiArt I’ve heard of that. Even summer the water is cold there. I’ve been to Hawaii for surfing but never been to the main land in the US😅
Korea and the whole Eurasia continent is not far away from Fukuoka. The hazy hills seen on the ferry trip might already be in Korea.
The ferry from Fukuoka to Busan takes almost 4 hours! The ferry I was taking was within the Bay Area where Hakata port is, so those hills are part of Itoshima
@@JessicaMiyukiArt The Hakata Bay looks nice to explore, with plenty of rock formations, somewhat like Monterey Bay in California. And there is also an island right at the center of it which, on the map, makes the bay look like a pond in a Japanese garden.
How were able to book a room with APA? I think we tried to book to an APA hotel once but I believe it was requiring us to input citizen information or something... Can foreigners book a room with APA hotels?
Oh really? I don’t remember how I booked it but I’m assuming either through their site or maybe Agoda. I’ve seen foreigners there pretty often so they can definitely book. If you still have issues, try Route Inn hotels, they’re pretty similar to APA with their amenities and locations close to train stations, sometimes a bit cheaper too! I booked Route Inn hotels with Agoda
@@JessicaMiyukiArt Thanks! Love your videos!!
Ice cream, oden, bikini, scenery, eye lash, cutey, chawan-mushi. Welcome back to CA.
I can't get enough of Japanese ice cream! 🍦😋
so you're famous and have your own brand? that's so cool, you dont need to be working as a slave like me 🤯🤯
haha I'm not famous but I do have my own brand! Still gotta work hard but I set my own hours so I'm lucky to be able to travel :)
No trip to Fukuoka is complete without a stop at "I'm Donut" near Tenjin-Minami.
They have those in Tokyo too!! I’m forever a Mister Donut girl haha
@@JessicaMiyukiArt The Tenjin Chikagai is also worth checking out on a rainy or hot day.
@@w3s77 Yes! I went there to eat dinner and dessert :)
Damn. You can get lost in those eyes
I get lost in my brain
Why aren’t you on the big screen? @ 25:31 that how it feels whenever you come on camera! God bless
Haha it’s hard to beat the view of fresh baked bread!
agreed! Bread looked 🔥
U r best of the best ❤❤ 😘😘 subscribe
Thank you so much for watching and subscribing!!
Why is no one swimming? I do not understand😂
Swimming “season” was technically over when I was there so many people chose not to swim. But it was so nice!!
Fukuoka is not for sightseeing. Very good for living.
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
so true!!
Shikonoshima Dog's hamburgers, hotdogs and drinks are the poorest you will ever see. Over priced and very poor quality.
good to know! I don't usually eat hot dogs in Japan, but sometimes I like those american dogs (corn dogs) at a konbini
