[Taketomi Island] A popular island in the Yaeyama Islands🏝️

Taketomi Island is a popular island that can be visited from Ishigaki Island for a day trip. It takes about 15 minutes by ferry from Euglena Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal to Taketomi Island. If you want to ride a buffalo cart, you can use the shuttle bus at the port. It takes about 15 minutes on foot from the port. The fare is 3,300 yen for adults. 📍441 Taketomi, Taketomi-cho 🕰️Business hours 9:00-16:30 The buffalo cart driver sings songs while playing the sanshin. The buffalo sometimes take a break on hot days and move slowly, so it depends on the personality of the buffalo, which is also a fun point! You can also rent bicycles, so you can go around the island. We had lunch at a restaurant called Kanifu! We recommend Yaeyama soba and soki soba 🌺 You can also find star sand at Hoshizuna Beach, which is within cycling distance ⭐️ This island is recommended for a wide range of travelers, from families to couples and solo travelers 🏝️ #AbsolutelyFreeTrip #TaketomiIsland #OkinawaTrip #GirlsTrip
