5-Day, 4-Night Cruise Vacation | Explore Miyakojima from Hong Kong: Cruise Experience Sharing

Cruise experience sharing

【entertainment】
Performance program - everything, the actors performing are very professional. The only downside is that most of the shows are more suitable for kids or seniors (since the boats are mostly family and senior groups).
Games - there are many kinds, however they are biased towards elderly square dancing or children's activities, which is more unfortunate.

【restaurant】
There are two free restaurants, one buffet and one a la carte. There are many choices in the buffet and main restaurant, Chinese + Western + Asian flavors, the taste is close to Chinese taste. The queues are generally not too severe (especially during off-peak hours). For more upscale or specialty food, reservations or price increases may be required.

【pool】
The advertisement said it was 1.9 meters deep, but it was actually 1.6 meters, saying it was for child care. The three pools on board are all 1.6 meters, with no distinction between crowds and depths, and are open mainly in the afternoon.

[Miyako Island, Japan]
It is a small island and the shore time is 5 hours. Be sure to try the top local Wagyu beef! There are many restaurants on the island, however not many open at noon. I found one using Volkswagen Review, remember to call to make an appointment! Otherwise you have to wait in line. The manager speaks Chinese very well! The people on the island all speak Japanese and basically don’t know English or Chinese.
