🚢 MSC cruise five days and four nights experience|Keelung→Ishigaki Island→Okinawa→back to Keelung

This five-day, four-night cruise on MSC Bellissima departs from Keelung Port and visits two popular attractions in Japan: Ishigaki Island & Naha, Okinawa. The overall experience is: super relaxing, super good sleep, super delicious food, basically a sea resort! 🛳 Itinerary Overview Day 1|Boarding at Keelung Port → Departure at 18:00 You can line up to enter the port and go through boarding procedures at about 13:00 after noon. Although the boarding process is crowded, it is efficient. You can get on board and put your luggage in the room at about 1 o'clock to 2 o'clock. In the afternoon, visit the facilities on the ship and have afternoon tea. Dinner is a buffet or formal restaurant (the menu will change daily). There are also performances on the ship in the evening. The atmosphere is super happy~ At 18:00, the cruise officially sets sail from Keelung and the voyage starts! --- Day 2|One-day tour of Ishigaki Island Dock at Ishigaki Island in the morning. You can choose to travel independently or join a group. We chose to travel independently, went to Kabira Bay, ate Ishigaki beef rice bowl, and visited souvenir shops such as brown sugar and sea salt along the way. The whole island gives people a clean, comfortable and southern island style feeling, very leisurely. In the evening, we returned to the ship and just watched the sunset on the deck~ --- Day 3|Arrived in Naha, Okinawa in the afternoon We were still on the sea at noon that day, so we could have lunch, swim, and visit duty-free shops on the ship. We docked at Naha Port, Okinawa at about 14:00 in the afternoon. After getting off the ship, we went straight to the Kokusai-dori shopping district. We were very satisfied with shopping + eating and drinking. We could go back to the ship to watch another show or have a drink in the evening. --- Day 4|Okinawa morning independent travel → Departure at 14:00 Because the ship docked for more than one day, we could go ashore again in the morning! Some people chose to get up early to go to Shuri Castle, Naminoue Beach or AEON Mall to buy until the last minute (laughs). We returned to the ship before noon, and the cruise left the port on time at 14:00 and sailed back to Taiwan. The afternoon was a sailing day at sea, and everyone became very good at playing on the boat: going to the gym, participating in activities, taking photos, afternoon tea, watching the sea ~ it was completely the last day of relaxation. --- Day 5|Arrived at Keelung Port in the morning We arrived at Keelung Port at about 07:00 in the morning. The ship arranged to disembark in batches. The overall process was orderly, and the luggage collection and customs clearance were smooth. Although I was a little reluctant to return to Taiwan, it was also full of memories! --- ✨ Summary and recommendation ✅ Advantages: * No need to move luggage to change hotels, super suitable for lazy people + elders + family travel * Eat very well every day (three meals on the ship + afternoon tea + midnight snack) * There are song and dance shows, bars, duty-free shops, swimming pools, gyms, and sea activities are not boring * Plenty of free time, free travel players can also have fun! 📌 Tips: * It is recommended to book a room with a balcony, where you can enjoy the sea and sunbathe. * Remember to pay attention to the return time when you travel on the shore, so as not to miss the boarding * You can bring an extra set of formal clothes to attend the "theme dinner" or take photos * Passports will be checked and face scanned when you disembark in Japan. Queue up early to save time! #Cruise #mscCruise #KeelungPort #Ishigaki Island #Okinawa --- Overall, this MSC five-day and four-night sea trip is highly recommended for those who want to travel abroad easily + have high freedom + not rush the schedule. It is a comfortable travel rhythm of "emptying → eating, drinking and having fun → emptying again", which is super suitable for healing yourself!
