Hi, I’m Tabi!
Akune in northwestern Kagoshima combines the Hisatsu Orange Railway with the East China Sea coast. Use the station as a starting point, checking train times and onward travel to the shore.
This guide covers places within Akune, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

Akune Station

A Hisatsu Orange Railway station and community meeting place, its building was renewed in 2014. The photograph was published in 2024. Check railway timetables and individual shop hours before using them.
Getting there Check the current approach and return transport on the map.
Look for offshore rocks and intricate layers along this coast. It is not directly in front of Akune Station, so check the route separately. Stay away from exposed edges and wet rocks when waves are high.

Akune’s bontan is a large citrus fruit, listed in official tourism information for November through March. Do not assume fresh fruit is available in October; ask about candied peel products and sales seasons.
