Ariake (有明町, Ariake-chō) was a town located in Kishima District, Saga Prefecture, Japan.
On January 1, 2005, Ariake, along with the town of Fukudomi (also from Kishima District), was merged into the expanded town of Shiroishi.
The former Ariake Town Hall is now actually the site of the main Shiroishi Town Hall. Ariake borders the Ariake Sea, and from the Edo period through the Shōwa period land was reclaimed from this sea.
