Iki Island Resort

Iki Island is a remote island located about an hour from Hakata Port by jet foil. With over 150 shrines scattered across it—said to be where the gods from the Kojiki dwell—it is a place rich in history. In recent years, ocean-view resort hotels and glamping facilities have multiplied, and island trips featuring marine sports in its crystal-clear waters have grown increasingly popular. The island is also a treasure trove of cuisine, renowned for Iki beef, fresh sea urchin, and abalone, with many accommodations offering dishes that showcase local ingredients. It is an island where dynamic natural scenery—including Monkey Rock and the dramatic cliffs of Tatsu Island—exists alongside historic charm.
