2025 Tokashiki Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

[Nagannu Island], about 20 minutes by ferry from Naha I didn't even know the name of this island until I went on this trip, but it was so amazing that I decided to go there every year, so I'd like to share it with you! It's easily accessible from Naha, so I highly recommend it for those who want to enjoy both city sightseeing and the sea!✨ It takes about 20 minutes by ferry from Naha to the island in no time. I was really moved the moment I saw the crystal clear emerald blue sea, which is incomparable to Naha 🥺 Food and drinks are not allowed, but there are beach huts so you can feel safe 😋 I went there at the beginning of July, and it was really really hot, so I took good care of UV protection, but if you're in the sea, your body will cool down, so you can stay in as much as you want! There are many activities, but fish often come to the shallows, so I put my iPhone in a case and took a lot of pictures in the sea 🐠✨ I tried [parasailing 🪂] for the first time, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. It was only a 5-minute flight, but I felt like I was really flying and was so happy that I want everyone to experience it too 💓 There are many photogenic spots, and Nagannu Island is so beautiful that time flies by just looking at the ocean 🏝️ Please go and check it out ☺️ #Hot spots in Japan

Nagannu Island in Chibishi Atoll A resort island 20 minutes from Naha. The island is characterized by its pure white sand and long, narrow shape🏝️ There is also a pier for boats to arrive and depart. I stayed in a cottage✨ Not only can you enjoy the beautiful sea to your heart's content, but it is originally an uninhabited island, so when the last boat leaves at 4:10 p.m., only guests are left. It suddenly becomes quiet, and the sunset is beautiful✨ We had a barbecue at night🥩 What! You can buy beer from a vending machine🍺 Breakfast was brought to us by the boat⭐️ The rooms are simple, but there is air conditioning, and the shared showers have hot water. It's surprisingly civilized😊 In consideration of the environment, we use the body soap, shampoo, and conditioner provided. There was a deck and parasols that only guests could use, so it felt special❤️ Includes round-trip boarding fee, lunch, BBQ dinner, breakfast, bath towel, and toothbrush set 💰Price per person: 22,900 yen 📍Location: Maejima, Okinawa Prefecture #Nagannu Island #Okinawa #Okinawa Trip #Okinawa Remote Islands #Kerama Islands #Cottage Accommodation

The luxury of nothing✨ It feels like standing on the crystal clear Kerama blue sea✨ Kuefu Island in the Chibishi Islands is a flat island made of coral and shells, and is so small that you can easily see the whole island. The shape of the island changes with the tides. The coral shelves are amazing! You can swim with lots of sparkling fish✨ 20 minutes by high-speed boat from Tomari Port in Naha! There is no pier for the boat to dock, so we moved to a banana boat and landed⭐️ The beautiful sea is so close that it makes you feel excited♫ There are no regular boats to the island, so we took a deserted island landing tour. You can rent snorkeling equipment and wetsuits, and change on the boat. There are no toilets, so the boat is very useful. The cold Sanpin tea I had on the way back really warmed my body❤️ It's a recommended spot that you can easily visit as it can be done as a day trip from Naha😊 💰Price per person: Boat fee, equipment rental fee, training fee, guide fee, insurance fee, wetsuit, beach towel All included, about 6000 yen Landing was suspended in 2023, but it has been revived in 2024! 📍Location: Tokashiki Village, Shimajiri District, Okinawa Prefecture #Kerama Islands #Kuefu Island #Okinawa #Naha #Naha Day Tour #Island Trip

The beach is equipped with showers and changing rooms, so you can spend your time comfortably. ⚠️【Notes】: Aharen Beach is a popular spot, so it can get crowded during the peak summer season. It is recommended to visit early or use it on weekdays. Also, the sun is strong, so don't forget to take measures against sunburn! Refresh your mind and body at this beach where you can fully experience the charm of Okinawa. You will definitely be soothed by the beauty of nature. #Okinawa #Tokashiki Island #Aharen Beach #Amazing view #Beach life #Relax #Snorkeling #Travel #Domestic travel #Okinawa travel #Okinawa sightseeing #Okinawa remote island sightseeing #0 yen trip

Actually, you can also enjoy the beautiful seascape of Okinawa's northern glass sea right in Naha by island hopping! We chose the well-developed Tokashiki Island, which is about 2km away from Tomari Port and International Street. ✅【Ferry Terminal】 ⭕️Tomari Port is an important port connecting the main island of Okinawa and several small islands nearby; ⭕️The ferry terminal is not large, and inside there are a few windows marked with different island names (Zamami Village, Kume Island, Tokashiki Island, etc.); ⭕️The Tokashiki Island window only accepts cash and credit card payments, electronic payments are not accepted. Next to it, Zamami Village can use online payment methods; ⭕️You must reserve the ferry from Tomari Port in advance on the official website; ⭕️The fast ferry takes 40 minutes, and the slow ferry takes 70 minutes. We booked the slow ferry for the whole journey, which costs 3310 Japanese yen, including a 100 yen environmental tax; ⭕️The slow ferry is quite stable, with a flat layer on 1F, which is highly recommended for friends who get seasick easily to sleep on the flat layer. There are indoor and outdoor rest areas on 2F and 3F; ✅【Tokashiki Island】 ⭕️The island is located in the eastern part of the Kerama Islands, which is a famous diving spot with many spectacular canyons and caves waiting for diving enthusiasts to explore; ⭕️The waters near the island are home to many types of hard corals, sea fans, etc.; ⭕️There are three beaches on the island, namely Tokashiki, Aharen, and Tokashiku, among which Aharen Beach is more famous. Here you can swim and snorkel; ⭕️After arriving at Tokashiki Island, you can take a shuttle bus from the snorkeling shop/inn you booked, or head straight to the only two buses on the island. The bus station is right next to the port, and the bus fare is 400 Japanese yen per person, one way, paid in cash; ⭕️The commercial atmosphere on the island is not strong, it was said that all consumption on the island must be in cash, but surprisingly, a restaurant was found to accept WeChat and Alipay; ⭕️From the port to Aharen Beach, over a hill, along the way, you will occasionally see the glass sea, the light blue blending with the white sand beach creates a very beautiful vacation painting; ⭕️The bus ride takes about 10 minutes, and when you get off, you can see a circle of small shops, including snorkeling shops, as well as beach chair and umbrella rentals; ✅Main Activities: ⭕️The shop has instructors who can take you to an uninhabited island for snorkeling, where the water is clearer and deeper, and there are more fish and corals; ⭕️The equipment rented from the shop can still be used for snorkeling by the beach after you return from the uninhabited island, and of course, it's also okay if you bring your own equipment; ⭕️If you like to relax, you can rent an umbrella on the beach, buy an iced drink, and laze around for a day, sunbathing, enjoying the breeze, and daydreaming; ⭕️There are not many water entertainment projects here, but there are banana boats; ⚠️Notes: ⭕️We arrived at the beach at 11:30 and left at 15:00 (for the 16:00 ferry), which was a relatively short time! ⭕️Even if you take the 9:00 fast ferry, it still feels a bit short. It is recommended that you stay on the island for one night; ⭕️Only after personal experience did I understand that an action camera is really necessary. I couldn't take clear pictures or do anything with my iPhone after getting in the water.

Autumn trip to Okinawa✨A 4-night, 5-day trip to remote islands in October〜✨ The main event of this trip is "Snorkeling in the Kerama Blue"⛱️🧜🧜🏝️ The spots are Amurojima and Agenashikijima✨You can snorkel at the anchor point✨ You should definitely see the reef photographed by a drone✨✨✨ So beautiful✨✨ Let's go on an autumn trip to the Kerama Islands, the "Kerama Blue that the World Loves"✨✨ #AutumnTrip #RemoteIslands #RemoteIslandTrip #KeramaIslands #Snorkeling

I went to Tokashiki Island, about an hour by ferry from Tomari Port in Naha. The sea was crystal blue and really beautiful. The weather was great and the sun was strong, so I got a lot of sunburn. Access: From Tomari Port in Naha. The building is called "Tomarin." Reservations can be made by phone, online, or at the counter. *It was the high season in summer, so if you make a reservation a few days in advance it may be sold out, so I recommend making a reservation early! Prices: High-speed boat: ¥2,490, Ferry: ¥1,660 (both for adults/one-way) The ferry runs one round trip per day, and the high-speed boat runs two round trips per day in the morning and afternoon, but the number of round trips is increased to three round trips per day during Golden Week and weekends from July to September. Details can be found easily on the internet! Impressions: The ferry was crowded because so many people were boarding! If you get on early you can get a seat inside, but I got on just in time, so I relaxed on a chair outside with a roof! It wasn't a long ride, so some people sat on the floor and others stood and enjoyed the view. If you don't like boats, it's better to secure a seat early. You'll arrive at the island in no time! Most hotels have a pick-up service, so someone will be waiting for you when you arrive. There are hardly any taxis, so many people rent them, but if you're staying for one night, if you become friends with the hotel staff they will often take you with them! 😂 Next I'll introduce the hostel I stayed at✨ #summertrip #okinawa #okinawatrip #tokashiki #remoteislandtrip #trip2022 #okinawa #okinawatrip #island

#WesternJapan #RemoteIslandTrip Abundant coral, fish, and the view from the top of the rocky mountain. Honestly, it was better than I expected, and I was very impressed! You can rent a snorkeling set including a life jacket at Aharen Beach, so I recommend that anyone visiting rent one! *Climbing the rocky mountain is quite steep and a bit dangerous, so please be careful when climbing. Access About 10 minutes by glass boat from Aharen Beach (There is also a banana boat, but I recommend the glass boat because the coral you can see on the round trip glass boat is very beautiful)

Tokashiki Island in the Kerama Islands can be reached in 70 minutes by ferry or 35 minutes by high-speed boat from Tomari Port in Naha. There are many private lodgings, but you can also go for a day trip. If you take the ferry, it costs just over 3,000 yen round trip. If you're going for a day trip, there are tours that include transportation to the beach, so I recommend it. You can stay for just under 4 hours. The main island is beautiful, but why not experience even more beauty on this island? #summertrip #okinawa #naha #remoteislandtrip #okinawatrip

#Breathtakingviews #Remoteislandtrip #Photogenicspots Points It's best to make a reservation by the day before. Prices vary depending on the season. In March, the ferry & snorkel tour is a bargain at 4,800 yen. The length of stay also seems to depend on the season. Either way, it's best to make a reservation in advance. Access From Naha Airport to Tomarin, it takes about 30 minutes by bus or train. From Tomarin, it takes about 30 minutes by ferry.

A hill observation deck overlooking the harbor on Tokashiki Island in the Kerama Islands. It is located in a position where you can get a good view of Tokashiki Port. The area below the observation deck is like a gazebo, so it's conveniently shady. Taking a break while watching the ferry depart. #WesternJapan #Kerama #Tokashiki #Okinawa #Ferry #ObservationDeck

Okinawa🏝️ has five names (Okinawa, Naha, and Ryukyu). It is mainly divided into three parts: south, central, and north. Generally, 5–6 days are enough to explore the island. I'll share a 6-day itinerary. Day 1️⃣: First, have fun in the south. The route is Naminoue Shrine - beach - Tsuboya Yachimun Street - Ukishima Street - Makishi Public Market - Kokusai Street. The iconic Shisa lion🦁 can be seen everywhere. Day 2️⃣: Whale watching🐳 (this is a winter-limited activity from December to April). The chances of seeing whales are high. Even if you don't see them the first time, you can go again, so don't schedule this for the last day. It is recommended to take motion sickness medicine💊. Day 3️⃣: Watch the sea and sunset🌄 at Senaga Island, right where the planes take off and land✈️. You can get there by bus from the city center. There will be college students singing, planes taking off🛫 and landing🛬 overhead, and the atmosphere at sunset is beautiful. It's perfect for experiencing the local life. Day 4️⃣: Northern tour (it is recommended to book a day trip if you are staying in the south, as the distance is quite far). Manzamo - Kouri Island - Churaumi Aquarium - American Village. Manzamo is a grassy area large enough for 10,000 people to sit on. The cliff has been eroded to resemble an elephant's trunk🐘. The whale shark in the aquarium has been there for 30 years. Crayon Shin-chan has visited here. Day 5️⃣: You can arrange a one-day cycling tour🚴 in the south. You can search for nearby Hello Cycling on Alipay to rent electric-assisted bicycles. The daily cap is JPY 1,800💴 (Route: Shurijo Castle - Yonabaru Town Park - Chinenmisaki Cape - Higaonna Kanjun Memorial Museum - Okinawa Peace Memorial Park - Ryukyu Mura - Okinawa Outlet Mall Ashibinaa). This route is quite strenuous, so you can choose the route according to your own situation. Day 6️⃣: Boat trip - snorkeling🤿 at Tokashiki Island. Book your tickets in advance on the official website. There are fast and slow boats🚢, so you can choose the round-trip time according to your schedule. Departing from Tomari Port in the south, it takes about half an hour to get there. 🍝Food recommendations: 1️⃣Danbo: A ramen shop🍜 with almost constant queues. You can choose the firmness, spiciness, whether to add onions, and the thickness of the noodles. 2️⃣Soy milk ice cream🍦: Sold at the Churaumi Aquarium. They also have a pumpkin flavor, which is very special. 3️⃣Soba noodles: Delicious broth and chewy noodles. You'll fall in love with it after trying it😍. 4️⃣Sweet potato desserts: Many dessert shops here use sweet potatoes🍠, with unique shapes and sweet flavors. Very creative. 5️⃣Yakiniku: Recommended restaurant: Yakiniku Zipangu Motobu Ranch Wagyu Beef🥩. The plum wine is also very good, and there is a very handsome waiter. Okinawa really doesn't feel like Japan, but it's just as clean and tidy. You'll see many "Indians" working in convenience stores or restaurants. At first, I thought they were Indians working in Japan, but later I learned that this is what the locals look like. Okinawa has a lot of interesting culture and beautiful scenery waiting to be discovered. Pay close attention🤩.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Tokashiki Island is the largest island in Kerama Islands National Park and the closest island to Okinawa Island. The island has rugged terrain and covers an area of ​​about 15 square kilometers. We took a private boat to Tokashiki Island, where we rented motorcycles to travel around the island. There are many beaches on Tokashiki Island that are like paradise, such as Tokashiku Beach and Aharen Beach. These beaches are located in a quiet bay, surrounded by rolling mountains, forming a natural protective barrier. Tokashiki Island has beautiful scenery. There are eight observation decks and two nature trails on the island, making it a great place for walking and hiking. Walking on the Mihanahara Trail, you can admire various plants and overlook the beautiful scenery of Okinawa Island in the distance. This motorcycle tour also included enjoying the spectacular views from the Zhaoshan and Jianhuayuan viewing platforms.

Highly recommended. This inn is located a 5-minute walk from "Tokashikijima Port" where you arrive at Tokashikijima from Naha. I like remote islands and often go there, but I often don't know the distance or transportation even if I search, so I thought it would be best to stay somewhere as close to the arrival port as possible, and I saw in reviews that they were knowledgeable about diving, so I made a reservation, and it was a great decision. It's convenient because there are restaurants and supermarkets nearby, and the bus to Aharen Beach stops nearby. The owner of the inn is also really nice, and if I was having trouble with transportation, he gave me a ride as a service (it's a service, so when possible), and he listened to what I wanted to do and made various suggestions to enjoy the island, so he was really nice. It seems that he used to work at a diving shop for a long time, and it seems that you can go diving and snorkeling by boat. You can also rent wetsuits, and I was able to enjoy the incredibly beautiful sea, which made for a very fulfilling day. Next time, I plan to have him take me out on a boat and enjoy it further out to sea. I'll go again! ️Thank you 1. Staff response: Very good 2. Hotel type: Guesthouse 3. Transportation and access 5 minutes walk from "Tokashikijima Port" 4. I recommend staying here in these situations ・I like sea activities ・I like communication ・I'm looking for a cheap accommodation with a private room instead of a dormitory 5. Room information ・Details of amenities: towels ・Room: Desk hair dryer, coat rack, bath towel ・Bathroom and restroom: Shared ・Washing machine and dryer: Paid ・Shared space: Full set of cooking utensils, refrigerator, Wi-Fi, TV, kettle, microwave, etc. 6. Special services and facilities ・Breakfast and dinner: Available for a fee ・Full set of wetsuits for scuba diving and diving can be rented (paid) ・Motorcycles can be rented (paid) 6. Recommended nearby spots ・Aharen Beach ・Tokashiku Beach ・Zamami Island, Aka Island (both require boat transfer) #Hotel review #Seasonal places in Japan #Tokashiki Island

Located on Tokashiki Island in the Kerama Islands of Okinawa Prefecture, there is a spectacular spot called Kubandaki Observatory. From this observation deck, you can see the emerald green sea and white sand of Aharen Beach, and the spectacular view is breathtaking. Access: Kubandaki Observatory is about a 10-minute walk from Aharen Beach. Go through a hole in a large rock at the west end of the beach and climb the stairs at the end to reach the observation deck. From the observation deck, you can see the entire Aharen Beach and the surrounding islands such as Hanauri Island and Gaiji Island. Especially on a clear day, you can enjoy the beautiful color of the sea, known as Kerama Blue. Recommended visiting time: From morning to noon, the sun is high in the sky and the color of the sea looks more vivid. It is recommended to visit from noon to midday. You can also see a beautiful sunset at dusk, but it is difficult to see the sun sinking into the horizon because the sun is hidden by the island. #0 yen trip January 2025 #Okinawa
