What is Fukuoka’s latest summertime activity? Camping on the beach in Momochi! Inner-city beach Jigyohama opened a brand new RV campground on July 1, located inside the landmark Seaside Momochi Beach Park area. Just 15 minutes by car from Tenjin and right next to Fukuoka Yahuoku! Dome and Fukuoka Tower. It’s a great chance to go camping inside city limits, and a good overnight option after a Hawks’ baseball game! The campsite has spaces large enough to pitch a tent with your vehicle closeby. A park administrator said that the campground offers an amazing night view, and the location has great potential as a tourist spot. Each compartment has fifty square meters and includes a wooden deck. There is also a communal kitchen, temporary shower, and even some shops. The barbecue area can accommodate approximately 70 persons and offers a night view of Fukuoka Tower and the sunset on the beach. ¥5,000 per night, with 14:00 check-in and 12:00 noon check-out the next day.
