Ikinoshima IKI RETREAT Hello, this is Koya I am currently in Fukuoka Today, I am going to Iki Island, which I have always wanted to visit This time, I will be staying at the IKI RETREAT Since it’s my first time visiting Iki, I plan to explore the famous tourist spots there I’m looking forward to it I mentioned that I am in Fukuoka, but since I currently live in Fukuoka City, I can actually get to Hakata Port from my house in about 5 minutes by car What is in front of me is the jet ferry wheel to Iki If I take this one that just came from the left side… From here, if you take the express train, you can reach Iki Island in just about an hour Iki Island in Nagasaki Prefecture is located closer to Hakata Yes, I will board the Z coil This is my right hand The inside is a reserved seat, isn’t it? It costs about 13,000 yen round trip, which is surprisingly a decent price Departure at 8:00 Leaving Hakata Port, the ship slowly heads towards the Genkai Sea The moment we set sail, the view of Fukuoka City from the sea is so beautiful Right in the middle, you can see the symbolic presence of Fukuoka Daimyo Garden City, which represents the Tenjin Big Bang This is where the Ritz-Carlton Fukuoka is located As you continue on, you can see the iconic view of Fukuoka City right in front of you When it comes to PayPay Dome, Hilton Fukuoka, Sea Hawk, and Fukuoka Tower, many people will likely picture this view As you proceed, you can see a ferry in front of you This time, we will arrive in just over an hour by high-speed ferry, but this ferry takes about 2 hours and 20 to 30 minutes to reach Iki,which is appealing because you can take your car on board In the distance, you can probably see the scenery of Itoshima, Karatsu, and Yobuko I want to briefly convey how wonderful the island of Iki, which I am going to, is The charm of Iki lies in its beautiful sea and truly high-quality ingredients These two aspects are not easily compatible on a resort island Ikki is rich in land for an island, and it is precisely because the surrounding marine environment is well-maintained that this is possible The quality of food here is in a league of its own compared to ordinary resort islands This island serves as a maritime relay point connecting the continent and Japan, and it has a historical significance It has an ancient charm, with over 150 shrines on the island, and it is also called the Island of the Gods There is nature, gourmet food, history, and a mystical atmosphere that somehow brings peace to the heart It can be said to be a miraculous island where you can fully enjoy all of these We have arrived at Gonoura Port We have arrived There are quite a few people lined up for the return flights since this morning Yes, I will rent a car at Gonoura Port and go sightseeing They brought the rental car to the port It’s 11,000 yen for a 1-night, 2-day rental at Bear Rental Car Yes, first I’ll try going to the observation deck near Koyonoura here It’s impressive that there’s such a grand bridge on an island I think it’s a relatively flat island, but we’re definitely going to the observation deck now I’m climbing up the slope like this There’s a parking lot for the observation deck nearby, and we go up from the left side here Since I just arrived, this map is easy to understand We have just arrived at a place called Goyonoura It’s the largest town on the island There is an observation deck here now Today, we will go around to the right There are accommodations around here It seems there is a beautiful beach at the top, so I will check it out tomorrow Yes, we have arrived at the observation deck. It’s right in front of us If you look to the lower left, you’ll see that the cherry blossoms are beautifully blooming this time of year After all, this is a divine island, so there are many shrines here There is a torii gate over there as well I’m really curious about the hole in the bottom left Is it a well or something? I just looked it up, and it seems to be a well It seems that there used to be a castle here, and this was likely used during that time I have climbed up to the top The view is really nice, isn’t it? It seems like this is the highest elevation on the island I saw that it was written as 212 meters earlier This Iki is truly a flat island The island is made of sedimentary rock, not volcanic rock Yes, it has that kind of terrain, but here it slightly rises like a hill, so you can look down from a high position The lower left is the area of Gonoura that I mentioned earlier Since this area has the largest town on the island, you can see that many buildings are densely packed There is a small island further back, but it is not an isolated island; it is connected by a bridge This island is beautiful because it is connected by many other islands If you go further to the right, you can get a panoramic view of the island from here It’s a bit disappointing that there are some clouds here, but I think it will clear up more and more from now on It was mentioned that if the weather is good, you can see Busan from this side What you can see faintly in the distance today is probably Tsushima People in the past departed from Hakata Lake in Fukuoka You can travel to Busan, South Korea, via this area and Tsushima It’s not just people from the past who go; people still go now So this place was used as a starting point for navigation, right? In the midst of such a dense port town, when you look towards the mountains, there are quite a few buildings scattered around It’s not a settlement, but there is indeed this vast area It’s quite interesting how the way houses are built is completely different in the port area compared to this mountain area This is the direction of Tsushima Originally, we were supposed to see the shadow of Tsushima Island above the horizon, but today Tsushima is not visible It’s a bit hazy. Yes, I was thinking of going to the beach after this It seems like it will take some time for the clouds to clear, so I came to a cafe I’m curious about We just passed by here a moment ago This is the entrance It’s banana juice I was a bit curious since Mr. Morley was here, so I came to check it out It says that domestically produced banana juice can be eaten with the peel It’s right in front of the farm, so I’m looking forward to this Wow, that’s amazing. Once you go inside, there are lots of banana goods for sale The store is all about bananas Currently, we can offer banana juice The sizes are L, M, and S It’s milk and soy milk If you’re okay with milk, I recommend the milk option. The flavor is quite distinct, so yes Also, I’m sorry, but we don’t have soft serve ice cream at this time of year Instead, we have something called banana leaf ice cream I think we’re probably the only ones in the world making it The leaves are really beautiful They are grown without pesticides The leaves are ground into powder and mixed into various processed products Banana juice milk M 650 yen, banana leaf ice cream 500 yen First, we have the banana shake The rich banana flavor spreads along with the milky taste It’s delicious After all, it’s because Iki has such vast land that there are banana farms like this There are various things, not just Iki beef and sea urchin It’s amazing The texture of banana leaf ice is really soft It’s not hard at all Does it taste like banana? It has a matcha-like flavor, doesn’t it? It has a matcha-like flavor, but since I ate it after drinking a banana shake, I can also feel a bit of banana flavor The banana is also in there, isn’t it? Does the flavor of banana come in this? there’s a little bit in there, isn’t there? It’s nice to enjoy a refined matcha flavor while feeling the amazing banana taste This has a grainy texture from that leaf The leaf has a slight roughness to it as well This is ice cream that can only be found here The sense of exclusivity is nice The delicious banana was indeed tasty As I drive the car again from now, you can see the rural landscape spreading out on both sides like this It’s amazing, isn’t it? It has a sense of being an isolated island, but it also feels like a part of Kyushu, much like Itoshima We’re heading to a beautiful beach in Itoshima I saw a landscape that caught my attention while driving, so I decided to stop by There are ruins here as well Should we say that the Haranotsuji ruins are houses that reflect an old-fashioned lifestyle, or are they just preserved as they are? I’m not quite sure if they are recreating that After all, Ikki is an island with a rich history It is estimated to be the site of the central settlement of Tsushima, which appears in the Records of Wei The building extends quite far back, doesn’t it? This remote island has a landscape reminiscent of the Yoshinokari ruins, and it’s amazing how you can feel the history here Many ruins and artifacts have been discovered here that support the idea that this area was a trading hub with the continent I had no idea that such things existed until I came to Iki ChatGPT suggests that this place is highly likely to have been the gateway to Yamatai I never thought that there was a gateway to Yamatai Kingdom in Iki We have arrived at the beach We have arrived at Ohama Beach Even in this foggy state, I think it looks quite beautiful I think that when it’s clear, an incredibly beautiful blue landscape spreads out before me The clouds are thick when you look up, so I can’t show it right now I’ve been checking the weather forecast since yesterday Why are there so many clouds directly above when there’s only a clear weather mark like this? It doesn’t seem to be working, does it? Tomorrow also has a clear weather mark all day I think I will be able to show beautiful ocean views there since I have a place to go to the beach tomorrow as well Even on cloudy days, I think the beauty and clarity of the ocean can still be conveyed like this The sandy beach is fine and feels really comfortable to walk on This is it How is it? It has a high level of transparency, doesn’t it? In summer, you can really enjoy swimming in the sea here The person I came with earlier is knowledgeable about Iki, so I asked them The Ohama Beach here has relatively higher waves compared to other places in Iki, so it seems that many people enjoy surfing The Ohama Beach is amazing, with a long stretch of sandy beach and beautiful white sand This place is really close to the airport If you arrive by plane, this beach is a spot where you can easily rent a car By the way, if you look further back here, you can see land This is the main island of Kyushu You can also see around Itoshima a bit from behind Here in Iki, you can really enjoy a variety of landscapes There was another beach called Tsutsukihama near the airport, so I came here This place is nice too On the left, there are trees lined up, creating a strong sense of being on a remote island The white sandy beach stretches far into the distance You can enjoy this beautiful ocean view along with the previous beach We will go to Kojima Shrine, known as the Mont Saint-Michel of Iki I have arrived at Kojima Shrine It’s one of the famous spots in Iki Can you see the torii gate on your left in front of you? This is a mystical shrine where you can walk through the sea to reach that torii gate over there During low tide, this place is completely connected to the land and you can walk there, but right now it’s a bit flooded This is said to be Mont Saint-Michel I haven’t been to Mont Saint-Michel yet, but I’m looking forward to going this summer It seems that it’s said to be a shrine you can only visit when the tide is low, as it’s chosen by the gods I checked the low tide times, and it looks like it’s at 6 AM or 6 PM this time of year, so it seems a bit difficult I came to check since it was that time, and it’s beautifully full It seems like it will rise up to around here I wonder if we can make it that far You might be able to go in with rubber boots or barefoot Shall we give it a try? It might be a bit tough to go in barefoot here This area is enclosed, isn’t it? This place has a feeling similar to a hot spring, doesn’t it? I’m looking forward to soaking in a good-quality hot spring in Iki today I guess this can only be reached by swimming Unfortunately, I wasn’t chosen by the gods this time The person who came with me said that it wasn’t that you weren’t chosen by God, but that you just didn’t investigate Alright, I’m going barefoot, wow, it’s cold This is cold, it’s dangerous I’m about to slip and fall This is a bit tough Not chosen by God This time, please allow me to participate remotely from here Please Everyone, this is difficult even for a YouTuber I’ll come back, Mont Saint-Michel is dangerous We’ve arrived at a place that feels like a fishing port The next sightseeing spot is a place with many Jizo statues There is absolutely no touristy atmosphere here I’ve arrived You can see the Jizo statue further back in the Horahoge area This is quite an interesting sight, isn’t it? We are really right in front of the ocean Be careful, be careful! Excuse me There are so many Jizo statues lined up If you flip this over, you’ll see that the inside is a bit rounded I hear it’s called a Harahoge Jizo Excuse me for a moment Yes, it seems that it can’t be taken off completely You can understand it by touching this This part is a little rounded This was created to mourn those who lost their lives in maritime accidents After all, it became a hub for maritime trade I pray for the safety of such things It is a culture where there are many Jizo statues and shrines because it is a land where people pray a lot The scenery has suddenly improved There is another scenic spot just ahead on the left We have arrived It’s a place called Sakyobana In Ashibe town, there is Gonoura and another port The jet wheel that just arrived also comes to this Ashibe port In front of me, the waves are rougher than before, creating this kind of scene A view where you can feel the breath of nature is spreading out before me The protruding rock is impressive, and the spray from the waves around here is beautiful After walking a bit, there’s a sheer cliff right below, and the powerful sea looks like this A wonderful scene typical of a remote island is unfolding right in front of us When I see this, I can see the rocks down to the water’s edge, so the sea looks beautiful The water is very clear, and when I look to the right, there is a spacious meadow spreading out It seems like families and people with pets can have a great time here with such a vast area available There are various ways to spend time This time, I plan to enjoy a leisurely stay at the inn It seems like it would be fun to have a picnic around here In the back, you can see a red torii gate a little bit This is amazing The rock in front of me shows rough traces of erosion that have taken a long time to form The spray of the waves is more intense than earlier it’s quite impressive There is an atmosphere typical of a remote island Yes, I’m going to have lunch at Tatsuno Island I plan to take a sightseeing boat tomorrow, and I’ve arrived in that area We will arrive at the lunch spot soon I came to eat sea urchin, just like on Iki Island This port is also large, isn’t it? It’s right here It’s a fishing port, isn’t it? That bus route is running quite well, isn’t it? It seems that this bus goes from the northernmost part here to Gonoura in the south It says ‘fresh sea urchin rice bowl’ around here, but this is Watatsumi on the right The menu is in the top left corner. The fresh sea urchin rice bowl is recommended for those who love sea urchin In the center, there is Ikiki, and other seafood is also delicious. You can also add sea urchin to this seafood bowl There are also things like this This is a luxurious meal where you can enjoy sea urchin, sashimi, and Ikiki beef I’m greedy, so I ordered this It’s here What a luxurious meal set! This is my first time eating Iki beef They said there was purple sea urchin in the middle There is plenty of sashimi Let’s eat I can hear the sound of the meat sizzling deliciously Amidst all this, I will have some sashimi Is this yellowtail? Yellowtail is rich in fat and delicious, isn’t it? It’s squid, isn’t it? It seems that squid is also delicious It seems that Kensaki squid can be caught, which is as delicious as sea urchin This place is also close to Yobuko The rich sweetness is the best Well then, let’s go for sea urchin Let’s go with the rice It’s delicious, This is not the real sea urchin since it’s not in season, but it is impressive as expected It seems that those who love sea urchin eventually end up in Iki, which is quite true Personally, I’m not a fan of the fishy smell of sea urchin, but this one has no odor at all There is no fishiness, and you can really taste the rich sweetness of the sea urchin If it tastes this good out of season, the best season must be even more delicious The rice goes well with it Finally, we have Ikigyu beef It’s said that you absolutely must try Ikigyu beef and sea urchin It melts in your mouth Rather than having a strong red meat flavor, it is generously dusted with frost and melts the moment it enters your mouth It’s delicious There aren’t many places that come to mind where you can find branded beef on an isolated island That area is indeed attractive, especially Iki It’s precisely because the island has a relatively large area that they can raise big cattle A luxurious meal is something woven by the magnificent nature Unlike Okinawa, the currents in this area of the sea collide, resulting in a lot of plankton being present In the Genkai Sea, a lot of delicious fish can be caught It’s attractive that you can eat high-quality fish and meat This is my first time here, but I really like Iki I want to drink beer, but I can’t because I’m in a rental car After this, we will probably have a luxurious meal at the inn, so let’s have some drinks then We have arrived at the inn for today’s enjoyment Arrived Iki retreat The exterior of the Iki retreat looks like this, and it was noted that it was built in 1992 It has been renewed multiple times, and it looks very beautiful Now, let’s go inside The retreat in Ikirito means a hideaway Surrounded by the great nature, it offers a special stay in a calm space limited to 12 groups per day All rooms come with an open-air bath with flowing hot spring water and an ocean view The view of the sea is, of course, wonderful The hot spring, with a history of about 1700 years, has a unique iron-rich reddish-brown color that is hard to find elsewhere The dishes made with the highest quality ingredients from Iki Island are truly one of a kind It stands apart from other accommodations This is the only accommodation in Japan’s remote islands that has been awarded a Michelin 5-star rating This inn is undoubtedly worth visiting Iki for; it truly is a special place The view of the sea that greets you the moment you enter is truly magnificent Next is the souvenir shop The souvenir shop is compact, but it has carefully selected souvenirs This area has salt and Iki beef jerky That seems like a good snack to go with beer There are snacks made from grilled rice cakes here There are snacks available There’s something called ‘Unimeshi no moto’, isn’t there? I haven’t seen it much Ikki is impressive, as expected There are salt cookies around here too It’s a famous sweet called kasumaki bouillabaisse here What is this? I am writing ‘Mamanakase’ Is it a tomato? Is the tomato from Iki famous? Karasumi is quite expensive, isn’t it? We also have karasumi There are shoulder bags and other items around here I see that Nomad Fish Soap is being sold It looks cute and seems like a good souvenir Also, there are probably some carefully selected amenities placed in the rooms around here There is a dining area to the left as you go further It seems you can have breakfast and dinner here There are table seats on your left There is a large table You can also have it at the counter This time, I plan to have it at the counter Can I enjoy the food while watching it being prepared right in front of me, like in a live kitchen? In front of me, there is the sea that I could see from the lobby earlier I can enjoy my meal while gazing at the ocean view The sun can be seen on our left side During sunset time, it’s lovely to enjoy a meal while gazing at the twilight scenery this is something to look forward to This is a bar counter lined with shochu Iki is the birthplace of shochu, so there are an incredible variety of shochu available On the right side of the lobby, there is a space that resembles a lounge This is an area called the Library & Bar Wow, that’s wonderful! There is a figurine of the jazz accompaniment members placed on the right side On this side, there are chairs and tables with a classical and luxurious atmosphere This desk in front of me has a lot of character It looks stylish, like a chessboard In front of me, there is a chessboard where you can play a little board game On your left hand side, there is a drink service Right in front of you is this coffee On your right hand side, there are some light snacks and treats There are chocolates and delicious-looking cookies available Wow, that’s nice There are dried fruits here Additionally, depending on the time of day, there is also a service for alcohol on this side There is sangria on the left side In front of you, there is a service for champagne There is orange juice in that right hand In the library, there are books related to this area There are also magazines On the top shelf, there are fine liquors and whiskies displayed I can enjoy the drink from earlier while gazing at this wonderful ocean view This is a huge, luxurious sofa It seems like I can sit back and relax slowly while feeling the luxurious atmosphere This is a sweet called Kasumaki Kasumaki The center is made of breadcrumbs and the outside is a custard dough It has been a souvenir from Iki since ancient times, but in reality, it is a much longer sweet We cut it into bite-sized pieces Please try it as a tea snack It’s also for tea This tea is made in the neighboring Tsushima This is my first time eating kasumaki This is a traditional Japanese sweet that has been loved in Iki since ancient times It has a flavor similar to dorayaki, but the dough feels a bit crunchier and firmer than dorayaki It’s delicious There is also tea available The tea is very delicious It has a refined flavor like Japanese black tea The taste is incredibly soothing This is the room then I will head to the room There are a total of 12 guest rooms in 5 types at this Ikiri Treat The room we will be staying in this time is a premium Japanese-Western style room This is room 309 on the third floor Well then, I’ll go in A premium Japanese-Western style room will open The entrance is very spacious There are some cute ornaments What is this? There are indoor geta and slippers placed at the entrance The indoor ones are made of wood There are also other slippers placed here It’s beyond a luxurious and spacious corridor On your right hand side, there is a Japanese-style room first It’s behind this window I could see a beautiful lobby that overlooks the sea ahead Since the room is at a higher position than the lobby, you can enjoy a clearer view of the sea in the distance It’s a wonderful view When I went outside, I found this daybed as well This place has a spacious sofa that makes me feel so comfortable I might just fall asleep And, the guest room has an open-air bath like this Right now, when I twisted this, the hot spring water came gushing out with great force, so I’m a bit wet This is it I’ve heard that the quality of this IKI RETREAT’s spring water is wonderful This color is brown and murky, isn’t it? I wonder if this color is due to the high iron content Please take a look You can use this while enjoying a luxurious ocean view As you come further in, a wider ocean view unfolds When you zoom in on this, the scenery typical of Iki is that small islands are scattered around There are some clouds in the distance, but Tsushima can be faintly seen It was also faintly visible from the observation deck earlier You can see it from here There is a shower room inside as well, but there is also a shower here just in case And I will come back There is a large, impressive air purifier on the right side There is also a snack service available here There is information about the facility around here It’s a bit of an old building, but the two originally separate rooms have been combined into one, creating this kind of layout There is also space in the back, and there are towels below This is the bedroom There are two beds that fit the current times, placed like this That’s luxurious There is also a tatami space This Western-style room has a separate bedroom, creating a very spacious area There was a TV earlier, and there’s also a TV over here There is another retro dresser down here When I opened the drawer, there were various things inside It’s a bag in the socks In a small bag This samue is the top and bottom type There are samue available This is probably not a nightwear, is it? Is this a blanket? There is also a blanket available There is a spacious closet on the left side On the left side of the bed, there is a desk where you can also do your makeup Someone like me would likely be able to make progress with video editing work Over by this window, there is a chair with an ottoman It seems like I could easily fall asleep here too This time, it’s comfortable on the inside The temperature is pleasant, and I will spend time enjoying the ocean view This is the door at the back Inside this door, there is a space like a mini bar Coffee and tea are lined up on top This is Tenryō water made by people from Ōita It is delicious water that is famous nationwide There is a refrigerator with a freezer, and inside, there are drinks like this There is a Tsuburana series All drinks in this area are all-inclusive On the far right, there is also Asahi Premium Please come back to this hallway one more time This is the area for water facilities The sink is right in front of you There is an olive grove in Iki I heard that amenities made from that olive grove are available I am particular about amenities On the hand towel The cups around here are made of fine pottery, aren’t they? Is this a body towel? This is a tissue and dryer made by Salonia Various amenities are stored in the drawer like this Various towels are also placed here Since there is a bathrobe available, it seems like I can relax on that daybed while soaking in the hot spring outside There is a shower room on the right There was also one outside This winter is more organized, and since it’s cold outside, you can take a shower in a warm state inside Finally, there is a toilet behind this door near the entrance I will stay here for one night This is nice The atmosphere is truly amazing It seems like we can relax slowly while listening to the pleasant sound of the waves in the quiet atmosphere unique to the remote islands This inn offers accommodation for two people in a room with two meals starting at around 50,000 yen per person All guest rooms come with carefully selected, flowing hot springs I think we will be able to enjoy luxurious dishes made with plenty of fresh ingredients from Iki and Kyushu for dinner, so I’m really looking forward to it Yes, let’s quickly soak in this amazing hot spring The hot spring in the guest room is nice, but I think I will use the public bath or the private bath since they have larger tubs Since we can’t take photos in the public bath, let’s go to the private bath I have come down to the first floor There is a private hot spring and spa here There seems to be something like a tracksuit right in front of me There are more sports shoes available You can freely borrow this right in front of you There were gym facilities There is a mat in front of you They have also prepared towels and water on this side There are some equipment placed further back on the left side The treadmill and bicycle are equipped with windows, allowing you to enjoy running while looking at the ocean view This area has become a little post-bath relaxation space Right in front of me, I can stretch my legs out completely, and the cushions are so fluffy that I feel like I could fall asleep just sitting on them Yes, There is a fluffy sofa It definitely feels great after a bath There is a terrace in front of us Yes, if you feel hot after a bath, you can come out to the terrace here to cool off Since there is no designated smoking area, an ashtray has been set up here just in case It seems that this terrace also serves as a smoking area It really feels nice to feel the breeze outside There is a large men’s and women’s bath just to the left over there Although we haven’t taken any photos this time, the large public bath has both an indoor and an outdoor bath Here, you can relax in a more spacious area while enjoying the view of the ocean, which is larger than the guest rooms On the opposite side, there is a private hot spring and spa The lighting has created a somewhat luxurious atmosphere, hasn’t it? I couldn’t see the large public bath, but I was able to see the private hot spring, so I went inside First, there is a spacious changing area That’s amazing! There is such a splendid water server in the private hot spring Of course, there are plenty of towels provided as well There are plenty of amenities around here Beautiful tiles have been laid Of course, there is also a hairdryer below From here, open the door Inside, there is such a spacious shower area Please open this door further That’s nice A fine chair is placed here, and you can sit on it This is the bathtub It has become a space that is considerably larger than the bathtub in the room Isn’t it a bathtub where about three adults can stretch out and soak? The view in the back looks like this, with a view of the sea in the center It’s enclosed, so it has a proper sense of privacy and intimacy The innermost room is the spa treatment room The moment you enter, a wonderful fragrance wafts through the air You can feel the warmth of this wood; it creates a calming atmosphere with a natural taste There are aromatherapy items placed around here The spa menu uses ingredients derived from nature in Iki, Nagasaki, Kyushu, and Japan From here, you can see a beautiful view of the ocean further in And in the treatment room, you can receive the treatment together with someone else The locker is at the back There is also a room like this, which is for one person, so a total of three people can use it I will try the private bath This feels absolutely amazing The temperature setting is perfect It feels just warm enough to enjoy a long soak I think you can see it already, but this is indeed the quality of the hot spring water It’s rare to see a hot spring that shines this golden color anywhere else, isn’t it? This is the place where I stayed before I think the Furofushi Onsen in Aomori had various colors It has a lot of iron and salt, which is why it has this color You can really tell that the components of the hot spring are very rich It seems that the antibacterial and moisturizing properties are significantly higher than other hot springs Once you atuctually use it, you can feel how good it is Here, you can enjoy not only the quality of the spring but also this wonderful ocean view It’s truly wonderful I think hot springs near the sea often have clear water that contains salt I believe it’s really rare to be able to enjoy such a highly concentrated hot spring while gazing at this scenery This hot spring is truly attractive I brought the Tsuburana peach that was in the refrigerator, so I’ll enjoy it Let’s eat It’s delicious It’s a hot spring with a stunning view and excellent water quality And it’s a cold drink This is bliss The bath in the room was also amazing After the bath, I will go to the lounge Shall we have a drink since we’re out of the bath? This one hasn’t been opened yet, has it? Today, there are fewer customers since it’s a weekday. Believe it or not, I’m the first one here This is something that will really surprise Dosukoi-san I wonder if I can open it I’m scared I hope I don’t cause any trouble !! The photographer got scared and shook I will have some champagne after the bath We have beer after a bath, but surprisingly, there may not have been champagne after a bath until now it’s the best The quality of the hot spring was also excellent I’m enjoying champagne while watching the sunset right in front of me This is definitely a victory It’s irresistible Moreover, the cookies look delicious and seem to have a certain level of craftsmanship to them The aroma of almonds and caramel spreads These are not just any snacks lying around; they are quite elegant treats Each cookie is individually wrapped, giving it a wonderful homemade feel It’s probably handmade It’s the best I’m surprised that there is a place called Iki near Fukuoka This is the best I’ve returned to the room, and it feels like it’s just the right time for sunset It looks like I can slowly enjoy watching the setting sun on my left Depending on the season, during summer, the sun is positioned closer to the sea on the right side The scenery changes with each season, doesn’t it? All I can hear are the truly pleasant sounds of the waves and the chirping of the birds This is soothing, isn’t it? It’s dinner time It’s time for the enjoyable dinner I’ve taken a seat at the counter In front of me, there is sake, the sea, and fish, and their flavor is like sweet nectar I’m sorry, I can’t read this very well There’s definitely an atmosphere that suggests delicious food is about to be served This is the menu, including the appetizer, grilled dishes, sashimi, palate cleansers, main dishes, and the final dessert I’m looking forward to this This is the drink menu Despite being an outlying island, Iki has seven shochu distilleries This is surprising Descriptions of each distillery are written at the beginning The first page features a lineup of shochu from Iki The next page has beer, Iki-produced aperitifs, and liqueurs On the left, there is sake, and on the right, there is sparkling wine It’s all from Kyushu, isn’t it? Japanese whiskey and non-alcoholic drinks The soft drinks include a lot of carefully selected items like fruits from Nagasaki, and it feels really nice This month’s sake was also on the last page As I do like sake, even though Iki is very famous for shochu, I will drink sake This sake from Iki is said to be quite delicious, and it seems that some people become fans after drinking it here. I’ll try ordering the top two This is Yokoyama To explain briefly, it starts from the left side facing the customer This is honey-preserved tomatoes These are fruit tomatoes from Iki, known to make mothers cry These are tomatoes pickled in syrup with lemon and other ingredients What is in this dish is red sea cucumber vinegar Please enjoy it with homemade ponzu sauce to your liking Next is the middle one This is miso-marinated egg The eggs from local chickens are made into onsen tamago, and only the yolk is taken out Next to that, there is squid salted fish We use squid caught here Finally, we have karasumi daikon This is our homemade karasumi Karasumi is finished using a shochu made from the breath of the fish Please enjoy them in your preferred order This is the tomato that was also sold at this kiosk It has a little bit of elasticity It’s very delicious Was the tomato this delicious? It has a rich sweetness, but it’s not just sweet; there is a subtle acidity as well I think it’s just right with the lemon This is delicious The tomatoes from Iki are tasty This is called sea cucumber It’s delicious with ponzu sauce It has a crunchy texture, a slight spiciness, and a refreshing aftertaste with grated daikon radish This is an egg I wonder if the yolk part is concentrated this is rich too The eggs are elegantly prepared with a very refined sweet flavor using miso It seems like it exists, but it doesn’t Even though I eat miso and eggs every day, surprisingly, I don’t have them There are new discoveries among the things we usually eat It’s salted squid It’s delicious It’s salted fish, but it has a slight yuzu-like acidity, and the aftertaste is refreshing as well And this is the karasumi daikon When it’s just the karasumi, the rich flavor and the egg are too intense It ends refreshingly with the radish This has a flavor of the sea, so it definitely pairs well with sake As it says it’s super spicy, the heat really comes through It has a slight sweetness and a deep, rich flavor The refreshing aroma slightly reminds me of apples and muscats It seems that serving it in a glass enhances the fragrance even more You can feel the attention to detail even in the way the dishes are presented Next up is the baked clam Is this salt under the dish? The presentation is really beautiful Don’t you get excited just by looking at the vessel? Wow, that’s amazing! It’s already beautifully cut inside, isn’t it? Normally, I would take an action like saying ‘I can’t do it,’ but this time there is no need for that When I went glamping with Dosukoi-san, the flesh of the sea snail became rock-hard Let’s eat This is really delicious The broth is delicious Without a doubt, this part is cooked with dashi This is soy sauce-based and has a strong dashi flavor In addition to the flavor of the sea urchin, I wonder if there is also bonito in it; it’s too delicious This is delicious There is almost no bitterness This might be the first time I’ve eaten such delicious shellfish It definitely goes well with sake I’ll have another one of what I ordered This is also very delicious The one earlier had a stronger spiciness, though This one has a perfect balance of sweetness and spiciness The rich flavor spreads out It seems to go well with anything This is a very well-balanced sake It goes well with the broth of the clam It’s very delicious This is sashimi Before the explanation of the sashimi, there are three dishes presented Please add salt, ponzu, or soy sauce to this dish according to your preference You can use any dish for anything, and that’s perfectly fine This seafood can be enjoyed with just salt We use salt made from seawater from Iki Mix the salt and wasabi together, and when you dip the sashimi in the salt wasabi you can truly enjoy its deliciousness Today, the rarest item at the sashimi place is indeed this sea urchin The sea urchin is still not in season There is a special day that you can take only during this time What we have prepared for you this time is sea urchin harvested during that season I am really lucky This is a time when we usually wouldn’t be able to eat it yet This is purple sea urchin First, please enjoy this purple sea urchin as it is, without any condiments Please add a little soy sauce or salt to your liking There are shellfish right at the front This is an Akoya shell This is a shell used for pearl cultivation There are several places in Iki where pearls are cultivated, so it’s an ingredient you have the opportunity to eat This is a grouper This is a fish that can be caught year-round in Iki Since it is not a migratory fish, it can be caught year-round in Iki You can enjoy it deliciously even at this time of year, but it has a strong winter image The one on top is a small-sized bluefin tuna There is no doubt that this is bluefin tuna, but the way of saying it may vary You can catch tuna as well, and for example, you can also catch bluefin tuna that can be hung up, about the size of skipjack Of course, the size also exceeds 100 kilograms Please enjoy this sashimi in your preferred way First, there is something called Akoya clam This is the first time I’ve heard it Let’s eat I was confidently told that it would definitely be delicious with just wasabi and salt, so I have no choice but to do that I usually dip it in soy sauce, but if you’re saying that much… It’s delicious This Akoya oyster is quite small, but despite its size, it has a rich umami and sweetness It has a sweet texture similar to scallops, but the texture is a bit crunchier than scallops You can enjoy this sweet flavor along with the texture And it’s a query, right? It’s a premium fish Depending on the season, other areas can only be harvested at certain times, but in Ikki, it can be harvested year-round A lot of amazing fish come out It’s really delicious, isn’t it? Nodoguro has just the right sweetness rather than a juicy sweetness It has a juicy sweetness, but also a bit of mildness, and the aftertaste is refreshing Personally, I prefer something like this, which is just right rather than something too greasy I really like the fish called cue I have the impression that I eat quite a bit of grilled fish Since I rarely get to eat sashimi, this is too luxurious This goes well with sake This is so delicious, it’s the best! The quality of the fish at the ryokan I stayed at recently is incredibly high It’s a victory I see there’s something called Yokowa tuna I definitely eat tuna with soy sauce now, but I’ll go with salt for this one It’s too delicious There’s no smell at all It’s almost a shame to talk about the smell when it’s this delicious Even without soy sauce, the sweetness spreads nicely It’s truly luxurious to enjoy the original flavor of the fish with just salt There’s no deception here. With full confidence, I say to enjoy it with salt, and the sea urchin will just go straight in It’s incredibly delicious I didn’t like sea urchin that much, but it’s so delicious that I might start to like it What I had for lunch was delicious, but it’s amazing to be able to eat this rich and sweet sea urchin out of season This is happiness It’s the best I’ve heard rumors, but Iki is truly wonderful The fish is very delicious Do you have any recommendations for shochu? I recommend a shochu called Tazunedori This shochu is popular among people who like whiskey If you’re not very good with alcohol, the two above are easier to recommend Ikki is the birthplace of barley shochu, but it is not made with 100% barley It must be in a ratio of 1 to 2, where 1 is rice and 2 is barley If this ratio is not followed, it cannot be called Ikki shochu Iki shochu is easier to drink than other barley shochus We use water from Iki It is treated the same as champagne What is made in Champagne is called Champagne In the same way, proper registrations are made for that It’s not shochu, but Iki shochu I have to say that, just like champagne, I ordered the recommended Iki shochu, Tazunedori, from the staff It’s plum shiso daikon Well then, it’s a palate cleanser That’s very stylish It’s shiso and daikon This has a strong acidity It’s not too sour, and the radish gives a refreshing aftertaste, so it really cleanses the palate before the main dish At most inns, it’s quite common to have yuzu sorbet or similar sorbet as a palate cleanser You can really feel the attention to detail here It’s nice to have something a little different. This is Iki shochu I thought about enjoying it with a strong dish, but with such a refined shochu, let’s savor it at this refreshing moment when our taste buds are most receptive It really has a refined aroma that pierces through like whiskey or scotch As I mentioned earlier, a larger proportion of rice is used, isn’t it? Among shochu, this one is easy to drink and has a bit of sweetness as well It’s a plus that even people who are not good with shochu can drink it relatively easily It really has a nice aroma, allowing you to enjoy a rich flavor You can also enjoy the changes in flavor as the ice melts I slowly drink high-quality shochu This is grilled red sea bream with rice malt There is wasabi greens in the front The fried white leek is placed on top of the sea bream You often hear about red sea bream, but you might not have eaten eye bream I wonder what it tastes like Sea bream has a mild flavor, though The fat is well-developed, and it feels juicier than sea bream Even though it’s a white fish, it has a touch of elegance The white hair scallions on top add a roasted flavor to the mild taste, creating a nice accent Since there is still some sake left, let’s drink together I can’t resist it The sake keeps flowing It matches perfectly This dish features abalone and squid, which can be enjoyed as sashimi, but are intentionally served grilled over charcoal or in a shabu-shabu style When grilled over charcoal, it is served with a burnt butter sauce and a yellow sauce containing anchovies Shabu-shabu is served with a chicken-based broth. You can dip the ingredients in this The spicy sauce in the bottom right contains garlic soy sauce and green chili You can enjoy it with ponzu sauce or salt, according to your preference Please savor it in your favorite way It’s abalone I heard that grilling this over charcoal makes it delicious, so I’m going for it I’ll also add squid The wakame is very large This also tastes good when boiled The color changed immediately That’s amazing I love wakame, so I put 100 percent in my miso soup every morning First, I’ll eat this wakame as it is Oh, this is bad! It’s very delicious This is wakame, and it’s the first time I’ve eaten something this delicious The best wakame of my life has arrived I’m amazed! Is it possible to get this excited over seaweed? Everyone, some of you might think that Koya is overreacting again but this is really delicious I can confidently say that I’ve never had seaweed this delicious before I’m a little surprised I’ll boil the squid I’ll boil the abalone This squid has just been shabu-shabu’d What should I dip it in? Is it anchovy sauce? Wait, this is also really delicious Even though it’s not sashimi, it becomes super tender when boiled a bit I feel like the sweetness of the anchovy sauce is enhanced Until now, it was completely Japanese, but I feel like I can enjoy a Western taste with this anchovy sauce, and it makes me excited Actually, I’m not really the type who likes squid that much I want to have seconds if it’s like this The squid I grilled earlier was really delicious It’s soft even though it’s grilled That’s really delicious squid I’ll have the grilled abalone Please dip it in the anchovy It’s just the best. Abalone is often something you can only taste when it’s grilled at a teppanyaki restaurant It’s really delicious This anchovy sauce is similar to the butter grilling in teppanyaki, enhancing the savory aroma of the cat Since it’s anchovy and not butter, I can enjoy a different flavor than usual, which is fantastic Ike shochu goes down smoothly Wow, this is the best Even on the rocks, I almost downed this in one go, which was risky It’s too delicious I think it conveys a wonderful expression, and it’s delicious This is a first-time experience It’s not just about freshness You can grill or boil it and choose to eat what you find delicious or what you like It’s truly wonderful how you try to entertain your customers I can seriously recommend this The cooking isn’t finished yet, though This is sukiyaki made with Ikigyu beef We also have local chicken eggs available This contains a dipping sauce for the Iki beef sukiyaki Please move the meat after it has come to a boil Overall, I would be happy if you could enjoy it heated actually, this ladle is meant for you to enjoy the leftover egg from the sukiyaki until the very end I have also prepared the ladle so that you can pour it in at the end and enjoy it Please enjoy it without leaving anything behind Well then, next we have the rice dishes It’s sushi, ozoni, or Iki beef curry, isn’t it? In the hot pot, I will add an egg to the broth we just made It’s starting to boil I’m soaking the meat It’s definitely delicious The eggs have a nice color too Ikigyu shabu-shabu looks delicious It’s not shabu-shabu, it’s sukiyaki It’s sukiyaki. The staff said it’s okay to call it suki-nabe The dipping sauce is well incorporated, so it’s delicious, incredibly delicious Even though the meat is thinly sliced, the flavor and juiciness of the meat truly spread in your mouth The dipping sauce is very refreshing Ikigyu beef has frost on it, but the aftertaste is very refreshing Even at this late stage, the meat goes down really smoothly This is amazing It looks like I could go for seconds with this kind of momentum it feels a bit wasteful to eat it all at once it’s the best It’s rare to find a place with such high quality fish and meat They have alcohol too, it’s irresistible It feels like I should have come earlier Even I live in Hakata Finally, I will add the eggs The eggs are puffing up, and this looks really delicious Wow, this looks incredibly delicious! this is delicious too It’s delicious The broth is very refreshing, so even rich eggs go down smoothly I’ve been putting food in for a while, but this timing works too I can finish it in one go, it’s doable It’s delicious This is a rice porridge made using the broth that we just prepared with abalone This is Ikigyu curry Since there are quite a few people who would like to have a little curry at the end, this is made with that wish in mind This curry is made at our establishment, so it’s a limited item Enjoy your meal At first, I thought about having sushi The staff recommended these two items as things you can only eat here I’m weak against such limited words Since we came as a pair, we ordered two dishes The Ikigyu curry has chunks of meat in it This is incredibly delicious It’s incredibly delicious It’s a rich curry with concentrated meat flavors and a solid sweetness No, it’s really delicious. It truly is delicious It’s a curry made with Ikigyu that you can only eat here It’s a rice porridge, isn’t it? The rice porridge is already delicious It’s a broth of salt ramen with a rich seafood flavor In the end, it has a refreshing taste, and the elegant flavor of the seafood spreads as well No, it’s delicious. The drinks keep coming until the end It’s the best For dessert, we had melon Melons are sweet and very delicious It was truly beyond my imagination I was surprised I honestly didn’t expect it to be this amazing Japanese cuisine mostly has flavors that feel familiar, like something you’ve eaten before That wasn’t the case. Each dish had a little twist to it Everything, including the way it was served, felt fresh, and there were new discoveries to be made And yet, the quality of the material is top-notch I was astonished I wondered why it was so delicious If you look here, it seems the general manager has written this Normally, this would be written by the head chef, but the general manager, in other words, the manager, is the head chef here They also handle procurement themselves It’s just that the attention to detail is incredible It’s the reason why the food is delicious Among the places I’ve stayed recently, the satisfaction with the food is top-notch I definitely recommend this to everyone It was delicious I plan to enjoy a nice meal and relax in the hot springs tonight At night, if you look at the scenery outside, you can see the streetlights are spaced out, and you can faintly see the ocean view as well You might notice a little flicker of light coming from deeper in the sea It seems that the lights in that area are from fishermen who are out at this time of night As I realized just a moment ago after having a meal around here, a lot of delicious fish can be caught It might be said that this is a landscape unique to Iki Good night Good morning the next morning The next morning, the view of the sea is still very beautiful, isn’t it? Yesterday there were a few clouds, but today it looks like there is a lot of blue sky Isn’t it possible to enjoy a beautiful view of the sea? After this, I plan to have breakfast, soak in the hot springs a bit more, and then go sightseeing I’m looking forward to seeing a different view than yesterday I will go to the same breakfast venue as yesterday It’s teriyaki yellowtail Under the omelet, there is something like tsukudani made with yuzu. It’s called yubeshi This is one of the home-cooked dishes from Iki. Please give it a try It’s black abalone and Iki tofu Please try it with a little bit of Iki salt; thank you if you like this as well Breakfast has arrived They are carefully writing the menu It is lined up in front of me The presentation is really elegant, and it looks incredibly delicious I will enjoy this while gazing at the beautiful ocean view right in front of me First, let’s have the special smoothie vegetable juice from the inn It’s delicious There are plenty of green vegetables, but it also has a nice sweetness The tomatoes from yesterday were also very tasty There is tuna sashimi available from the morning The breakfast is just as delicious as last night’s The rolled omelet is also cooked very elegantly There is a yubeshi placed in front What is yubeshi? The sweetness of miso and the acidity of yuzu are both prominent This is yet another new seasoning for tamagoyaki that I’ve never tried before It’s delicious The breakfast is full of the essence of Iki This is freshly fried tempura They said this tofu is also local Please sprinkle some salt on this freshly fried tempura it’s delicious Since it’s freshly fried, the coating is definitely crispy The coating is not too heavy or thick, even in the morning You can really taste the original flavor of the tofu, and it’s delicious So this is black abalone, huh? I’ve never had abalone tempura since the morning This is also a first-time experience for me I’ve had Japanese breakfast at every inn I’ve visited I think it has a certain taste This was the first time I tasted the tempura and the unique yubeshi from Iki In the morning, it’s nice to have a meal that considers the portion, balance, and scenery After all, I soak in the best hot spring and then head out for sightseeing We will check out of the inn and head to the Tatsunoshima sightseeing boat terminal We have arrived There is a boat on the right; I wonder if we will be taking that one There is a ticket booth for Tatsunoshima over here I bought a ticket You can enjoy a 30-minute cruise for 2000 yen on this boat we have departed This cruise definitely gives off the vibe of arriving at an uninhabited island Once we leave the port, there are many islands lined up that feel like deserted islands The fishing port I mentioned earlier, Katsumoto, is truly a place where you can catch delicious large fish even in the air You can catch squid and yellowtail there. It’s said that in the east you have Ōma and in the west, Katsumoto, which is also known for its delicious tuna We enjoyed some delicious tuna at Ikiri Treat, didn’t we? They said that the island right in front of us is a completely uninhabited island The color of the sea has become very beautiful, hasn’t it? This is shining in an emerald green color This island has a very distinctive shape, doesn’t it? You can clearly see the lush vegetation swaying in the wind and falling over Wakamiya Shrine is a shrine with a torii gate At the command of the god of maritime safety, when setting out to sea, we stop the boat’s engine in front of the torii gate and pray for safety with our hands together wow We were able to reach the bow of the big ship This is really impressive; when you come to the very front, this is truly Tatsu Island You can see the beach on the right side Masuo is really charging straight into this That’s a really sharp curve The color of the sea is very beautiful, isn’t it? This really feels like I’ve come to a resort Speaking of places I’ve been recently, it feels like entering Maya Bay in Phuket The beach on that uninhabited island has very high transparency It seems there are also boats that can land, not just sightseeing boats Here, it seems you can play on the beach of a deserted island for about an hour Since this is a sightseeing boat, I don’t think we will be landing Oh, I wonder if they will dock here after all I didn’t think I would be able to get off Oh, someone just got off here now Goodbye They are people who cost 1000 yen It costs 1000 yen just to board. There are no sightseeing tours If you just want to get off without a tour, you can come here for 1000 yen It’s amazing how the transparency keeps increasing If the color is this light, it must be a shallow area It looks like fun on the shallow beach. In summer, swimming here would be nice too It truly feels like you’ve come to a tropical resort in Southeast Asia The Katsumoto formation, which is the foundation stone of Iki, is composed of sandstone and mudstone It is a rock wall looming over the clear emerald green sea This scene is like a painting, showcasing the breathtaking views that Iki Tatsunoshima boasts The layers carved into the rock tell the story of a long passage of time The charm of this island is reflected in the vibrant green of the living forest What stands out is the movement of this sightseeing boat It can get very close to the rocky areas, and the technology that allows it to maneuver so near is impressive Even in the seemingly calm cruise, the veteran captain’s exquisite handling provides a thrilling and breathtaking experience This scenery, when viewed up close from a swaying boat, is truly an art of Ikki that can only be seen from the sea We are going to head out to the open sea for a bit That’s amazing, you’re going all the way out to the open sea I wonder how far this goes As expected, this layer of rock on the right side is impressive The waves have gotten a bit higher. I think we’re going to get some splashes Whoa, that’s nice! Ohhh It’s starting to shake It’s like an amusement This is interesting in its own way It’s very fun Nature feels more rugged here There is a small hole over there What is that? There is an amazing fisherman on the right side In a place like this… I wonder how those people got here This makes you feel the wildness of nature even more, doesn’t it? It’s shaking, it’s shaking If you keep going this way, you’ll reach Korea In the past, before airplanes existed, did people cross the vast ocean in a ship like this, cutting through the fierce waves? It feels like a scene straight out of the Grand Canyon Should we call this a rough, large island, or should we refer to it as a rock? It might be hard to convey the impact in a wide-angle shot, but it’s really powerful It’s different from earlier There is no more greenery here; it’s completely rocky It will go in like this there Are you going in here? That’s a lie, right? Oh I will really go in until the very last moment It was a wonderful experience. I want to come again in the summer Leaving Tatsunoshima, we head to Saru Rock, a classic spot in Ikik We’ve arrived at Saru Rock Where is Saru Rock located? The one on the right is really easy to understand Only here, the rock surface is exposed It definitely has a face that looks like a monkey in the upper left corner I’ve never seen such beautiful and clearly defined rocks before This area has also been eroded by waves and wind over a long period of time, resulting in these mysterious shapes As expected for an island said to be inhabited by gods, such phenomena are indeed present here This is a famous place that is sure to appear in any guidebook about Iki It’s a spot where you can easily stop by during a drive It’s said to be a place known as the Island of the Gods, where a guardian deity watches over against external threats Next, we have arrived at the scenic spot known as the Devil’s Footprints I wonder if this has become a park A stunning view is spread out before us This is not a golf practice range It’s a vast meadow that looks just like a golf practice range A landscape like a grassy field is spreading out, isn’t it? After all, this is a spot where you can feel the magnificent nature that is characteristic of Iki Earlier, it was written not to play golf, and here it says to be careful of falling there must be many people engaging in flashy activities It looks like a lot of fun whether you’re playing with kids or bringing along your dog or pet It’s my left hand There were demon footprints over there The meadow is amazing. You can feel nature, and the scenery is so beautiful that I was captivated. These are the demon footprints This rock has a huge depression that looks like a giant footprint It’s become a tourist spot because it’s said to be the footprint of a demon The footprint is too large, so it can’t be human According to the legend, that’s how it is As expected, this island made of sedimentary rock has been eroded by the wind and waves There are many rugged rock formations with distinctive shapes in this area This kind of scenery is also a testament to the sacred atmosphere it exudes You can also walk over the arch surrounded by nature I would like to return to Gonoura and have lunch Actually, I was planning to go there for lunch yesterday Nomoto Sushi is a delicious sushi restaurant This is your first time eating sushi, isn’t it? You can come inside, and there is also a tatami room, Since I’m here, I’ll have it at the counter The menu is arranged like this, but this time I ordered the recommendations First up is the pufferfish Is this a bit charred on the left side? It’s the same pufferfish, but you can enjoy the difference in flavor I’m going to eat fugu I didn’t think I could eat fugu all at once Thank you for the information about fugu from Shimonoseki and Usuki in Oita This is a clear soup This has a crunchy texture with a sweetness, and it’s really delicious This side is slightly boiled When boiled, it becomes a bit softer, has a nice texture, and the sweetness and umami seem to increase Even though it’s the same pufferfish, it’s different Although it’s the same pufferfish, you can enjoy the changes in flavor If you look next door, there’s indeed a pufferfish swimming Finally, squid and turban shell have appeared Please squeeze some lemon juice on it Red sea bream and horse mackerel have also appeared This is a really nice color, isn’t it, squid? The squid has been delicious since yesterday, hasn’t it? A lot of delicious squid can be caught in Iki, can’t it? The types of squid change depending on the season The types change, don’t they? Yes What kind of squid is that? It’s a sasai squid It’s delicious Turbo shell (sazae) But this rice is really delicious, isn’t it? Thank you very much What sets it apart from other sushi places is that the rice is delicious It’s really big in size All of this rice is produced in Iki So this rice is from Iki, huh? This is also a local product This fish is mostly local This makes me want to drink sake It’s not possible because it’s a rental car I will have the akou The akou is already delicious, isn’t it? The fat content is just perfect It’s not greasy It’s a premium fish It’s the same as the grouper I had yesterday A lot of amazing things have come out This contains Buri Toro and Iki beef This is grilled Spanish mackerel Finally, we have the eel This is amazing. Just looking at it makes me feel full; it’s so luxurious And finally, we have the fatty tuna This is already a victory It’s better to eat anago while it’s warm, so I’ll dig in Anago has a rich, juicy flavor of oil, but it’s nice that it’s not too heavy It has a refined taste The horse mackerel is enjoyed with lemon It’s delicious The horse mackerel is this sweet, huh? If it’s this good, it becomes sweet There are no kabosu in this season So that’s why it’s a lemon Yes, this flavor is recognized by the people of Oita as well It’s 10 kilograms of buri toro it’s delicious The richness of the buri toro is amazing It’s just the right season to eat it now, isn’t it? It’s already the end of winter, and we can enjoy seasonal fish from Britoro Ikigyu can be eaten all year round Ikigyu is indeed delicious It has a juicy meat flavor, yet the aftertaste is not overwhelming It’s delicious Isn’t there no other sushi restaurant where you can enjoy both exquisite sushi and top-quality meat? Isn’t it only found in Iki? I’m glad to hear you say that This is sawara (Spanish mackerel) I’m just searing it a little It melted away all at once with the sushi, didn’t it? The Spanish mackerel has a slightly roasted aroma and a flavor that I’ve never experienced before, and it’s delicious too the flesh is large Around January, it was the most fatty Even now, it’s incredibly delicious, it’s fatty tuna This is the fattiest tuna I’ve had in a while Not only does it melt in your mouth, but the sweetness of the meat truly spreads It’s delicious No, following yesterday’s Ikiri Treat, the food is definitely delicious I’ve also been to various accommodations and have eaten a lot of delicious sushi The food here is really delicious, isn’t it? The rice is tasty, and the pieces are large This is definitely a reliable sushi restaurant It’s true that you can enjoy different products depending on the season It’s amazing that almost everything comes from Iki The potential of Iki is incredible Do the locals also think it’s Fukuoka Prefecture? It’s already half, and my entire living area is Fukuoka now So it’s that feeling of being in Fukuoka It’s really far when the locals go to Nagasaki I rarely go to Nagasaki That’s interesting Yes, and after having a meal, I tried coming back to Ohama Beach, where I went yesterday, before heading home Today, the sky is clear with not a single cloud A different view from what I saw yesterday is spreading out before me The sea is shining in emerald green I’m surprised that there is such a beautiful beach just an hour by boat from Hakata You can really see how beautiful it is when you get up close The water is very clear The Sea of Japan is indeed beautiful We are now at the end of winter, approaching spring I believe that as we move towards summer, the sea will show even more beautiful colors It feels just like being in Okinawa Wonderful scenery Everyone, please come to the charming Iki Island filled with attractions I will definitely visit again as well Please subscribe to my channel and follow me on social media

  2. 壱岐良いですね 行きたいです
    来週いよいよ福岡リッツに行きますが 一泊二日の旅なので 調べてみましたが 無理ですね😰
    呼子でいか食べて 少し糸島観光して〆に「長浜屋」で長浜ラーメンを食べて最終便で東京に戻ります
    5回のフードプレゼンテーションに 初日の夜食に 「かわっこ」 
     そして屋台でおでん
    当方かなりの高齢者です笑
    次回は是非壱岐の島行きます
    楽しい動画ありがとうございました🙇

  3. 壱岐島行きたくなりました!
    ウニ好きなので😋
    ウニ食べて魅力的なお宿に宿泊したら最高ですね⤴️✨️👍

  4. 壱岐島がこんなに素敵な所だとは知らなかったです。壱岐島の魅力、そしてお宿での食事に感動しているこやさんの表情を見て、本当に美味しいんだなということがとてもよく伝わってきました。

  5. 壱岐は行きたいところベスト3に入ってる所なので ますます行きたくなりました

    龍の神社にご挨拶したくて
    絶対行くぞー!

  6. ちょこちょこ モーリーさんと同じ BGM が流れる度に、家族で笑っています。モーリーさんと仲良しなのがよく伝わってきます😂モーリーさんとドスコイさんとのコラボ大好きです🎉

  7. 以前子どもたちとうに、サザエ取り体験にいきました。びっくりするほど美味しかった😊恵まれた綺麗な海大切にしたいですね

  8. 福岡から毎回楽しく観てます!
    今回はこやさん過去イチごきげんでしたね!
    近いので壱岐も行ってみたくなりました!

  9. こやさんの動画は画像が美しいですね!良い機材を使用されてるんでしょう。
    食リポが丁寧で上品。今回は、いつも以上に美味しくてお酒もすすんでいるように見受けられました^ ^
    こやさんの動画観ながらお酒飲んで楽しませてもらっています。

  10. 初めてコメントします。
    来島ありがとうございます😊
    ぜひ、次はもーりーさんと壱岐島コラボお願いします。

  11. 「こやトラベルが選ぶ2025最高の旅館」第一候補が出ましたね👍
    宿も料理もお客様第一って感じが伝わってきました
    特に料理は過去一良かった気がします
    いつも「こやトラベル」と「スーツ旅行チャンネル」を参考に家族旅行を決めてますが…家族満場一致で壱岐島のこの旅館にほぼ決まりました
    ありがとうございました😄

  12. 人生を満喫されてますね😊
    刺激になります。
    私も福岡市内なので現実逃避したくなります。
    チャンネル登録しました!
    宜しくお願いします🙇

  13. こんにちは♪
    43年前に壱岐にキャンプ⛺️に行った事を思い出しました。

    日本の和牛は壱岐から拡がったと聞いた事が有ります
    壱岐牛は和牛の発祥らしいですよ❤

  14. こやさん こんばんは
    壱峻島 魅力的でしたねー
    お魚にお肉にお酒と食の魅力たっぷりでした
    お寿司屋さんも美味しそうでした
    そしてお宿も寛げそうですね
    お食事がホント美味しそうでした!!
    次回も楽しみにお待ちしております

  15. こんにちは。壱岐の動画ありがとうございました。長崎の離島は住居から遠く、海外旅行並の移動時間が掛かり、未だ未訪問です。冬は海が荒れるので、夏場にいつかは行きたいです。温故知新には行かないけど。

  16. もうしわけないけど外国人には来て欲しくないですね。

    北海道でウニ丼食べようと思ったら10000円!
    ちょっと引きました😢インバウンドの影響です
    何か。。。悔しくて食べるのやめました。
    壱岐てウニ丼食べたい❤

  17. 動画ありがとうございます!前菜の、説明のときの、「簡単に説明させていただきますと」の簡単にって、いらなくないですか?笑

    細かいですが、お客さんにとっては、とっておきの宿泊なのに、スタッフは何度も説明してるから、いやなんだろうけど、その点少し残念。

  18. 長崎市内在住です。
    壱岐島は行ったことがないです。今回の動画を拝見し、壱岐の魅力が伝わってきました。
    こんなに贅沢な旅館があったことを知りませんでした。
    今年、泊まりに行きます!!

  19. 壱岐とか対馬とかは何かイベントやきっかけがないと訪れることがない場所ですが、こういう動画紹介で行ってみたくなる観光地になるもの大きいですね。長崎県とは言いつつも、交通機関は福岡を向いているので、福岡から気軽に訪れたくなりました。時期は未定ですが、いつか行ってみたいと思います。

  20. 壱岐島の魅力が伝わってきました
    素晴らしい環境ですねー
    必ずリトリートには宿泊してみたいです😆

  21. 早速、壱岐リトリートは予約出来ましたよ😁
    紫ウニ尽くしプランにしました。7月上旬ですが今から楽しみです😂

  22. 壱岐リトリートは雲仙の 半水虜さんの系列なんですね‼️
    HP見て知りました
    納得😉

  23. こやさんの動画を見てこのホテルに行きたくなり今日宿泊することになりました。楽しみです!
