i am going to be in Okinawa 02.10-06.10/ i have 2 days planned for snorkeling and i wanted to allocate 1 more day for a day trip to one of the islands(zamami\tokashiki) to enjoy the beach and the ocean.
But i am having a difficult time booking tickets online. i want to buy round trip ferry tickets for 04.10.
1)zamami:
if i am looking at available seats(tomari – zamami) https://yoyaku.vill.zamami.okinawa.jp/zamami_web/enres0301!doChangeMonth.action
i see that for 09.00 there arent any available seats and i can only book for 10:00 or 15:00 which checks out in the booking form
https://yoyaku.vill.zamami.okinawa.jp/zamami_web/ennmnu0101!doFormOpen.action
but when i get to the return tickets part (zamami – tomari) the only option it gives me is the 14:00 ferry despite the fact the i can see in the timetable that there should be another option for 16:20 with some available seats left
2)takashiki: the website here works better, but the 17:00 time slot for the back ferry is already taken. if i arrive to takashiki by 11:10, will there be enough time to relax and swim in the ocean until the return ferry by 15:30?
3) what about aka port? how does it compare to the 2 other islands?
