The first day
Take the boat to Miyakejima
We took the second-class ferry ticket to Miyakejima in October, which cost 6,240 Japanese yen. It not only includes the ferry ticket but also saves money on accommodation as we can sleep on board for a night. It's quite a good deal when you think about it! Of course, for a more luxurious experience, you can also opt to stay in the special cabin.

Second-class tatami room
We've arrived at our sleeping quarters for the night! The four light brown squares on the floor represent four bed spaces. Although there are eight spaces here, it's just the two of us having the place all to ourselves, hehehe! Each bed space has a wooden board separating them, although we're sleeping quite close together. At least we don't have to awkwardly make eye contact with the person next to us.

The children's playroom
If you have energetic kids at home, there's also a playroom where you can quickly take them to burn off some energy.
So as not to disturb others who need to rest.

Shower facilities
There are also basic shower facilities on board, 100 yen for 5 minutes. It's suitable for a quick shower.
