Tickets and booking P
Booking recommended. All seats are unreserved and the ticket window takes no reservations, but each sailing has a cap on tickets sold, so buying an e-ticket in advance online is recommended. If online sales for a sailing have closed, buy at the window on the day (that does not mean the boat is full). Buy about 30 minutes before departure; boarding starts 15 minutes before.
Where to buy
- Yaeyama Kanko Ferry counter in the Euglena Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal
- E-tickets online (show the ticket on your phone and go straight to piers 3/4)
- Buy each direction as a one-way ticket: the price per leg already includes the round-trip discount
Ports
- Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal 石垣港離島ターミナル on Ishigaki Island
