Island in Hakata bay with pleasant beaches and country park. Located in the heart of Hakata Bay, just a few kilometres offshore is the island of Nokonoshima. Although really very close to the city, going there stepping back a little, slowing down. It contains a nice stretch of beach, lots of good walks, and a country park.
We will expand our coverage of Nokonoshima shortly.
