Minamata is served by Shin-Minamata station on the Kyushu Shinkansen line from Fukuoka (2 hrs), Kumamoto (40 min) and Kagoshima (35 min). The cheaper but slower option is to use the private Hisatsu Orange Railway from Yatsushiro (1 hr) to Satsumasendai (90 min), which stops at both Shin-Minamata and "old" Minamata station.
