Getting to Nanjo and Getting Around | Visit Nanjo

Nanjo City lies in the southern part of Okinawa's main island. From Naha Airport, you can come by car, or combine local bus routes with transport within the city. From Azama Port, a ferry route also crosses to Kudaka Island. Rather than reprinting timetables that change often, this page treats each transport operator's official information as the authoritative source and offers guidance on how to plan your trip.

Traveling by car makes it easy to combine Chinen Misaki Park, the area around Sefa-utaki, the Nirai and Kanai Bridges, Hyakuna and Mibaru, Ou Island, and more. That said, take care about stopping or parking on scenic bridges and local residential roads. Rather than pulling over somewhere risky for a photograph, take in the scenery from a safe spot — the memory of the journey will be all the better for it.

If you use public transport, check the official information for local buses from the Naha area, the N-Bus running within Nanjo City, and the reservation-based shared-ride service Odekake Nanjii. For those crossing to Kudaka Island, the service updates from Kudaka Kaiun (the ferry operator) are the authoritative source. Timetables and fares can change, and sea crossings are affected by the weather. Always leave room in your itinerary, and it is wise to note down the date on which you checked the information.

If you are heading to Sefa-utaki, please check the official website in advance for the locations of the ticket office and entrance, the walk between them, the footing along the paths, and any access restrictions. Travel safely, quietly, and step into Nanjo time.
