If you are staying near the remote island terminal, you can purchase a one-day free pass (24-hour ticket) for convenient round-trip transportation between the airport and the hotel.
I recommend the following sightseeing route: Take a bus around 9:00 AM to Kawahira Park, spend about 40 minutes exploring, and then take the bus to Ishigaki Airport. At the airport, you can watch planes and have a meal before taking the bus to Hirano to visit Tamatorizaki Observatory or Hirakubo Lighthouse, and then return on the same bus route.
The weather on the island can change quickly, so even if it's cloudy in town, you might find sunshine and beautiful views at your destination.
離島ターミナル方面で宿泊する場合、空港とホテルの往復運賃で一日フリーパス(24時間券)が購入できるので大変便利です。
観光ルートのおすすめは、朝9:00頃のバスで川平公園に行き40分ほど見て回った後石垣空港行きバスで空港へ。空港で飛行機を見たり食事をとって平野行きバスで玉取崎展望台か平久保崎灯台に行き、折り返しのバスで戻ってくるルートです。
島の天気は変わりやすいのでたとえ街中が曇っていても行った先では太陽が出て素敵な景色がみれるかもしれません。
バスの本数が少ないので余裕を持ってバス停へ。また天気予報は晴れや曇りでもスコールな様な雨に降られる可能性があることを考慮しておく必要ありです。

If you're sightseeing in Ishigaki Island using the route bus, this one-day pass is a great deal. Moreover, if you book through Veltra, you can pay cashless with a credit card. If you go through the JAL or ANA websites, you can also earn miles. With this pass, transportation on the island is affordable, making Ishigaki Island the top choice among Okinawa's remote islands. When I used it last year, there seemed to be some issues with name verification, which put a burden on the drivers, but this time it has improved, and I was able to easily issue the pass with a clear app display. I will definitely purchase it again the next time I visit Ishigaki Island. Thank you to Higashi Unyu!
路線バスで石垣島観光する場合、大変お得な一日券です。
しかもveltraからの予約ならクレジット払いでキャッシュレス。JALやANAのサイト経由ですとマイルも貯まります。
島内交通が安く済むこのパスがあるので沖縄の離島は石垣島一択です。
昨年利用した時は導入まもなかったのでしょうか、名前との照合があったり運転手さんに負担をかけていましたが、今回改善されて見やすいアプリ表示で簡単にパス券を発行いただけました。
また次、石垣島を訪れる時にも必ず購入します。東運輸さんに感謝です、ありがとうございます。
The expiration date stamped on the free pass is in month, day, and time format. If it is printed as 1 11 18, it means it is valid until 1/11 at 18:59.
フリーパスに押印される有効期限は月日時間です。1 11 18と印字されていれば、1/11 18:59まで有効という意味です。

The one-way fare from the airport to the remote island terminal is 540 yen, so it's a good deal if you plan to make a round trip within 24 hours. Although it says 24 hours, if you purchase it at 9 AM, you can use it until around 10 AM the next day. It's the same price as the round-trip ticket offered by Toei Bus, but since it can be used for places other than the airport, I thought it was a good purchase. However, the bus frequency is only about two times an hour, and there are few routes, making it difficult to use for sightseeing. Even when searching for routes on Google Maps, many destinations take about 20 minutes on foot from the bus stop. I have only been to the southern part of Ishigaki Island, so I don't know about the northern part.
空港から離島ターミナルは片道540円なので24時間以内に往復するのであればお得です。
24時間と書いてますがAM9時に購入したら翌日のAM10時台まで利用可能でした
東バスさんからでてる空港往復チケットと同価格ですが、空港以外にも使えるので良いかなと購入。
ただバスの本数が1時間2便程度なのと路線が少ないので観光には使いにくいです。
Googlemapで経路検索してもバス停から目的地まで徒歩20分とかかかるのが多かったです。
私は石垣島南部しか行ってないので北部はわかりません。
There was no traffic congestion, but there was a delay of a few minutes due to the time it took for passengers to get on and off at the busy bus stop.
道路渋滞はなかったが、バスの乗客が多い停留所で乗り降りに時間がかかるので数分程度遅延はありました。

Since I couldn't drive, I used the bus for transportation, and it was a good deal as the round trip between the airport and the island terminal cost over 1,000 yen.
車に乗れないのでバス移動だったのですが空港と離島ターミナル往復でも1000円以上となるのでお得でした。

Since there are few buses, it's important to allow extra time to get to the bus stop. Also, keep in mind that even if the weather forecast predicts clear or cloudy skies, there is a possibility of sud
