After having fun in the Uminakamichi Seaside Park for most of the day, after we walked out of the park gate, instead of taking the JR to return from the original route, we walked towards the sea and headed to the Uminakamichi Ferry Pier and walked about 500 meters from the park gate. There are boulevards along the road, and it is quite pleasant to walk.There is always a lack of changes in the travel itinerary back to the original route, so Wendy likes to arrange a travel route that can be combined with different means of transportation. Boat is the best means of transportation. This time, I took the Hakata Bay route operated by Yasuda Steamboat.

There are not many changes in the landscape. Fortunately, the one-way journey is about 20 minutes. If you have time to simply browse the scenery, the time will not be too tedious.
