Hi, we are travelling to Japan (third-timers) in May 2023 and as part of our three-week trip we would love to explore some of the Izu Islands. We were thinking of doing Izu for around 7/8 days and see Hachijojima, Aogashima, Mikurajima and Miyakejima. We checked the Tokai Kisen ferry website and will catch the overnight ferry to Hachijojima. From there we’ll take the helicopter to Aogashima on the second day and then return to Hachijojima on the third day.
What we are struggling to find online is whether we can return on the Tokai Kisen ferry while stopping on the two other islands, Mikurajima and Miyakejima, on the way back. Is there a way/price plan to stop on each of these islands, stay one night and take the ferry the next day to the next island? Or can you only book a straight-up return, like Tokyo to Hachijojima and back?
Also, if anyone has stayed on any of those four islands and has a great recommendation for accommodation, please do let us know too!
Thank you so much for any info you might have!
