The Naha boats call at both Aka and Zamami on the published timetables, and the order changes by sailing. In the December 2026 and January 2027 timetables, Ferry Zamami 3 reaches Aka first, 90 minutes out of Tomari. The Queen Zamami 3's afternoon run reaches Aka first as well, 50 minutes after leaving Naha. Aka Port has the lowest wind limit for the ferry in the village's rules.
