Kume Island Guide

Kume Island Ferry Port

Belonging to the Okinawa Islands and part of the town of Kumejina, Kume Island is a hotbed for tourism and has a permanent population of just over eight thousand people. The port is situated roughly one hundred kilometres away from Okinawa’s capital of Naha, with two ferry crossings per day, though the times have been known to vary depending on the weather conditions. Many visitors make the crossing to experience the incredible white sand beaches, highly regarded diving opportunities and the delicious local food. History lovers will have no shortage of fascinating sites to enjoy: the Uegusuku Castle Ruins are a particular highlight due to the views achieved there, and if the weather isn’t too pleasant there is a museum to visit whilst sheltering from the rain. For those not keen on history, there is a tropical fish pool which is found away from the prominent tourist spots. To get around the island there is an affordable if unreliable bus system, that transports passengers to the vast majority of the popular areas. Next to the port, passengers will find a rental car company, offering visitors the chance to experience the area at their own leisure. The port generally has a crossing departing in the morning and in the evening, though it is advisable to check for live updates closer to the time.


Naha Guide

Naha Ferry Port

Naha Port is situated on the south coast of Okinawa, the southernmost prefecture belonging to Japan. The only ferry routes departing from Naha are to Tonaki Island and Kume Island, both crossing once per day and lasting between two and four hours. Naha epitomises Japan’s modern infrastructure; skyscrapers, high-rise apartments and an elevated monorail decorate the skyline. On the streets, the makeup of Naha may differ from expectation, visitors can witness the myriad of travellers and backpackers weaving between the quintessential traffic jam. To get right in the heart of the action, Kokusai Street is a mile long stretch of coffee shops, restaurants and clothing stores, though be prepared to dodge in and out of the rushing foot traffic. Next to Kokusai Street, the Makeshi Public Market on main Market Street is a hub of energy, with endless stalls offering local delicacies. Away from the busy streets lined with outlets, many cultural landmarks are scattered around the city. For a touch of education into the history of the area, there are a couple of museums that are well worth a visit, alternatively, the historical sites of Shrikinjocho Stone Path and Shurijo Castle are perfect for a day of sightseeing. The Naha monorail links the major areas of the city, though it doesn’t run to the port. Much of the city centre can be covered by foot, or there are taxis for quick and convenient transport.
