The scenery on Kujukushima Island is beautiful, and the weather was great the day I went. The sightseeing boat trip takes about 40 minutes and the ride is very smooth. There are seats or standing room by the windows on the boat, and you can also go up to the deck to take pictures.
After purchasing online, you can redeem your ferry ticket simply by showing your voucher. The staff at the ticket window are very friendly. There are only buses to Kumamoto Port, so remember to pay attention to the time. This time, I was late for the bus, so my ferry ticket was already expired. The staff at the window were very helpful in refunding my ticket. Also, if you miss your return trip, you can still catch a regular bus. Moreover, this ferry is faster and bigger than the other one, and you won't get seasick.
