Looking for date spots in Fukuoka? These two places are a must-see! My girlfriend and I visited them, and these were the spots that she especially loved. Both places are rich in nature and full of fun activities. Perfect places for making memories with your loved one.

1. Ohori Park – Refresh in Urban Nature

Ohori Park, beloved by Fukuoka locals, is also a popular date spot. On our date, we enjoyed riding a swan boat on the pond and having a picnic on the grassy area.

How to Enjoy Ohori Park

• ・Swan Boat
  Enjoy a relaxing time while floating on the pond. You move forward by pedaling, similar to a bicycle.


• ・Activities on the Grass
  It’s fun to play badminton or catch on the grass.


• ・Picnic
  Spread out a leisure sheet and enjoy a homemade bento.


• ・Walking Path
  Take a stroll surrounded by the green trees. Wildlife like birds, carp, and turtles add to the charm, and you’ll also see lots of people walking their dogs.

2. Itoshima – A Treasure Trove of Scenic Beauty and Gourmet Delights Near Fukuoka

Itoshima is a nationally renowned tourist destination. It’s easy to access from Fukuoka City, offering plenty of spots to enjoy stunning natural landscapes and delicious gourmet foods. On our date, we fully immersed ourselves in Itoshima’s charm.
