Also known as Cat Heaven, Ainoshima Island is a pretty peaceful island far away from the bustling city of Fukuoka. Suitable for a mini day trip, this island provides a comfortable gateaway for people who wants to get away from the hustle bustle of city life, especially for cat lovers(!!)
How to get here :
From Hakata, take the Kagoshima Line to Chihaya, then change to Nishitetsu-Chihaya Station for Kaizuka Line and travel to the Shingu Station.
From Shingu Station, you could take the green bus from the station or OPT to walk from the station. The walk is around 20 mins, and just turn right upon arriving at the Shingu Station, and basically go straight all the way. Follow the 537 highway number, and you'll find your way to the port. From the port, there will be ferries to Ainoshima at 460yen per way.
Here's the link for the ferry's timetable :
