Where to Go?


Hakata Bay Sail.


This map shows a course for a Sunset Sail.
We’ll leave 1 hour before the sunset and will reach the outside of Hakata Bay where we can see this magic moment of the day.
On the way back, time for snap-shots
with Fukuoka Dome, Fukuoka Tower and Marinoa in the back ground.  

Beside the Sunset and Day-Sail trips,
Fu Kyo can also make longer trips to the off-shore islands.

 How about: 
Iki Shima, (30 miles, it takes 4 to 5 hours, one way)
The islands near Karatsu & Yobuko (30 miles),
and Ohshima (30 miles).


Tsushima (60 miles, which will take 10 hours, with a possible pit-stop for the night @ Iki Island).

These trips are of course possible depending on the weather and sea conditions and are most fun when done with an overnight stay 
on board of Fu Kyo.
