Best for: Anyone staying near the ship; the only on-foot option at this berth
Room to spare: Fits a 3-hour stop with nothing to add (off the ship 30 minutes after arrival, back at the gangway an hour before all-aboard). A longer call gives you the extra time; on this one, do not add a stop.

The route

How the day runs

Times are from the moment you step off, not from the scheduled arrival. Everything shifts if your ship is late; the order does not.

Customs and immigration are in the building. Look for a currency-exchange machine (installed 2024)

Back at the gangway
If the daily programme lists a free shopping loop (as for a July 2026 call: AEON Yatsushiro, Festival Dendenkan, Yume Town), it is the only other short trip

The margin is not optional. This route ends an hour before all-aboard on purpose. If you are running late, drop the last stop, not the hour.
