Travelers on a short or rainy-day call who want a calm, hands-on craft rather than sightseeing.
It is a studio class rather than an Okinawan tradition, and the terminal is not a walking berth, so add a taxi to the studio in Maejima, central Naha.
It takes place at one venue, so there is no route to list.
Guide languages: English, Japanese. Cancellation: For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. Run by Okinawa Kintsugi Experience.
Booked through Viator (a Tripadvisor company). There is rarely a tour desk at the pier, so book before you sail.
