About Ishigaki
Ishigaki is the main island of the Yaeyama group in southern Okinawa, about 400 km south-west of Okinawa's main island. Cruise ships berth at the Shinko cruise quay in the Minaminuhama district, a reclaimed area of Ishigaki Port that has handled ships of up to 220,000 tons since April 2021, with an international terminal next to the quay for immigration and customs.
The town centre and Euglena Mall are about ten minutes away by car; some ships run a free shuttle to the Remote Island Terminal, and taxis often wait at the quay. Highlights include Kabira Bay with its glass-bottom boats, the beaches at Maezato and the island's coral reefs and starry skies.
