The large passenger ship bound for Hachijojima calls here. Which of the 3 ports it uses is decided on the day (info: 04994-5-0221). Overnight large passenger ship. 2nd-class fare. Cars cannot go on the passenger ship; they are shipped on Tokai Kisen's cargo vessel (vehicles only, no passengers). From Oct 9–28, 2026, Tokai Kisen is running a substitute timetable (using the Kuroshio Maru, Ogasawara Maru and Seven Island Tairyo) because some of its vessels (Tachibana Maru, Seven Island Yui and Seven Island Tomo) are under a suspension order. Figures shown are for the regular timetable from Oct 29, 2026 to Jan 31, 2027. Fares are for October 2026 (including the fuel surcharge, which changes monthly).
