Fare from the official meter tariff in force since 2023-08-14, for the road distance; traffic, tolls and night surcharges are extra.

Why it is on this site
  • It meets at the red mailbox by the central entrance of the Euglena Ishigaki Ferry Terminal, where some cruise lines run a free shuttle from the quay.
  • The mangroves shelter the river, so it runs in weather that cancels sea trips, and it suits beginners.
  • Equipment, a hot shower and photo data are included; 214 reviews average 4.9, and it was open on all 43 ship days we checked.
Best for

Couples new to paddling on a call of 4 hours or more who want a calm hour on the water.

Think twice if

If your line runs no shuttle, the ferry terminal is a taxi ride or 40–50 minutes on foot from the quay. A message with the final details comes the day before; if it does not arrive, contact the operator on WhatsApp.
