It's not often you can ski or ride a resort for more than a few months each winter. The Fukuoka prefecture may only have one resort but it makes up for that by being open all year round.

How? Well, the resort - which consists of a 60 metre slope, jumps and a quarter pipe - is fully indoor.

If that doesn't sound your sort of thing, we hear the beaches are nice.
