Delightfully laid back and warm-tempered Fukuoka has been an important harbor and capital city of the Fukuoka Prefecture in Japan. Unlike Kyoto or Tokyo, towns like Fukuoka offer an unhurried approach to exploring Japan. While stopped on your Fukuoka cruise, you’ll find it’s a foodie town and a shopping haven without compromising local flavor and culture.
In fact, 1.5 million people live in Fukuoka, and it’s Japan’s sixth-biggest city, but it simply doesn’t feel that big. While you’re here on an Asia cruise, there are plenty of beaches, history and art museums, and ancient ruins to occupy you. The food of the region is a critically important part of the culture. Eat your way through the city and try its regional delicacies while stopping at sights like the Fukuoka Castle Ruins or the observation tower of the Fukuoka Tower along the way.
While we don't currently sail to Fukuoka, you can still discover the beauty of the country on one of our Japan cruises. Browse our luxury cruises to Japan below.
