A first Kerama visit can turn into a choice between changing beaches and spending longer in the water. Furuzamami makes the case for staying put. The reefs hold colorful fish, and the designated swimming area lets you build a shore session around snorkeling. The local bus links the beach with the port, and the beach listing includes showers and a shop. An overnight stay gives you the flexibility to come back if conditions cut your first swim short.
