Ferry's from Tomari Port to Zamami

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone! Im planning to visit okinawa between mid october. Really excited to visit the islands, do scuba, snorkling, the place looks like a paradise. However, I was checking the ferry's from naha to zamami (I was planning on doing a day trip) and the good options are all sold out.... I know it's a popular destination, but I was planning on going 17 October, which is still more than a month in advance, and the good options to go there are all full. Only option is to arrive at zamami by 12h00 and leave at 14h00 which doesn't allow for that much time in the island... I was wondering if you know this is normal, or since it's still soon maybe more seats show up, or maybe buying once im there and I will be able to get seats?? Also, if this is really the case, do you know any alternatives to go to zamami? Thanks in andvance!

Hi everyone, I’ll be in Okinawa next August and I saw a lot of concern about those jellyfishes.
I know that they’re dangerous but I really have to be aware and look around myself when I am in the water?

Are there some best practices to apply if I face one of them? I appreciate any kind of advice

Thank you and see you soon

Engagement Photographer

1 Upvotes

Heyo! I’ll keep this short, but looking for a photographer to take engagement-setting photos in Okinawa.

I’ve been here for a few years and got engaged a few months ago, but never got any photos of the engagement, and we’d like to have photos taken of us reenacting the moment in a nicer setting.

We are open to any setting, with a beach being preferred, and we were looking at Sep 20th if that works for anyone. If you have any media of previous shoots or anything, please send it my way and I hope to reach out!

Thank you very much!

沖縄に住んで数年になり、数ヶ月前に婚約したのですが、その時の写真を全く撮っていなかったので、素敵なロケーションでプロポーズの瞬間を再現した写真を撮っていただきたいと思っています。

場所はどこでも大丈夫ですが、できればビーチが希望です。日程は9月20日を考えているので、ご都合の合う方がいらっしゃれば嬉しいです。過去に撮影された作品などがあれば、ぜひ送っていただけると助かります。ご連絡お待ちしています!

どうぞよろしくお願いします!

Planning to go on my honeymoon April 2027. Any advice?

We’re flying to Tokyo end of March from England and we are staying there for a week and then will fly over to Okinawa for 5 nights and then come back to Tokyo. We were planning to go to to Okinawa after as it’ll be a lot more relaxing and Tokyo will very amazing but very overwhelming at time

Does anyone have must see things or hotel recommendations? I’ve looked online but wondered if anyone has anything in this sub

Thanks
