The Okinawa City Bus Pass is Here!

Is it possible to travel in Okinawa without a rental car? The answer is a resounding "Of course!" All you need is the one pass we're introducing today. If you're a traveler looking to explore the heart of Okinawa—Naha City—in the most free and affordable way, then this guide is for you.

It's the magic of exploring Naha City like a local with just a single ticket, free from the hassles of complex routes and fumbling for coins. WAUG is here to break down everything you need to know about the Okinawa Naha City Bus 1-Day Pass.


So, What Makes the Naha Bus 1-Day Pass So Good?

There are clear reasons why this pass is called a "must-have item."

1. Overwhelming Value for Money
The biggest appeal of this pass is, without a doubt, its price. It's only 660 JPY for an adult! Considering the basic bus fare in Naha is about 240 JPY, you're guaranteed to save money if you ride the bus just three times in one day. A single round trip to one or two tourist spots means you've already gotten your money's worth and then some.

2. The Freedom of Unlimited Rides
You can free yourself from the inconvenience of calculating fares, taking numbered tickets, and checking the cost every time. For one full day, you can hop on and off the bus as much as you like. If a place you hadn't planned for catches your eye, you can get off without a second thought and get back on later. It's the perfect item for enjoying the pleasures of a spontaneous trip.

3. Perfect Coverage of Major Attractions
You can get to all of Naha's key attractions with this one pass. From Shuri Castle Park, the symbol of Okinawa, to the vibrant Kokusai Dori (International Street), the Makishi Public Market where you can get a glimpse of local life, and the Naminoue Shrine & Beach, an urban oasis. Nearly all major tourist destinations in Naha City are connected by its bus routes.


Okay, So How Do I Use It? (A Super Simple Guide)

Using the pass is incredibly simple! Just remember these three steps.

STEP 1: Scratch Off the Date of Use
Gently scratch off the 'Year, Month, and Day' you plan to use the pass with a coin. Be careful, as the pass cannot be exchanged if it is damaged or scratched incorrectly! It's best to scratch it on the morning of use.

STEP 2: Boarding the Bus
Look for the Naha Bus (那覇バス) or Ryukyu Bus (琉球バス) logo and board through the rear door. If you have the pass, you do not need to take a numbered ticket (整理券).

STEP 3: Show it When You Get Off
When you arrive at your stop, simply show the pass to the driver as you exit through the front door, making sure the scratched-off date is clearly visible. That's it!


WAUG's Tip: Just Remember This!

This pass is exclusively for local route buses within Naha City. Please be aware that it cannot be used for the Yui Rail (Okinawa's monorail), airport limousine buses, or highway express buses!
Until you scratch it, the pass is essentially a ticket with no expiration date. So don't worry if your travel plans change—just scratch it on the day you plan to use it.
