Tokashiki Island

**Overview** Tokashiki is the Kerama island to consider when the schedule only has one free day in Naha. Aharen is the most straightforward base for a day outing because there is a port bus and you can build a plan around a kayak excursion, a beach visit, or a meal nearby. Go inland for the Mihanabaru Promenade if you want views over the coast. Tokashiku is a separate stop and the village’s English transport guide directs visitors to use a taxi, rental vehicle or marine operator pickup. **Key metrics** - Island area: About 15 km² - Fast ferry from Naha: About 35 min - Regular ferry from Naha: About 70 min - Hanari distance from Aharen: About 800 m **Pros** - A short ferry links the island to Naha. - Aharen has a port bus and activities near the village. - Inland viewpoints give you options beyond the beach. **Cons** - Port and beach are separate stops. - The village lists no public bus to Tokashiku. - Some plans depend on ferry and bus timing in both directions. **Best for** Naha-based travelers who want one Kerama island day without changing hotels. **Things to watch out for** Check your last ferry and book the appropriate transfer. Bring cash to Aharen because the village lists no nearby ATM.
