Iriomote Island's main passenger ferry terminal, the primary gateway connecting northern/western Iriomote to Ishigaki (~40-50 min crossing). Typhoon season runs roughly June to October, and a passing storm can cancel ferries, flights and all marine activity across the islands at a day's notice — check the forecast before you rely on this stop.
