The Kaizuka Line (貝塚線 Kaizuka-sen?) is a Japanese railway line in Fukuoka prefecture, run by Nishitetsu. It serves Kaizuka, Higashi-ku, Fukuoka city, linking it to Nishitetsu Shingū, Shingū. It connects to the Kashii Line of JR Kyushu at Wajiro, and the Hakozaki Line of Fukuoka City Subway at Kaizuka. Currently, the line is 11.0 km long.

The line was 20.9 km long until Nishitetsu, the operator, stopped the service between Nishitetsu Shingū and Tsuyazaki stations (9.9 km) on April 1, 2007.[1]. Until then, the line was called Miyajidake Line (宮地岳線 Miyajidake-sen?).
