Access: Reach Sakete Port via Jumbo Ferry from Kobe Port or Takamatsu Higashi Port. From Sakete Port, it's a 13-minute taxi or Ozu Island Olive Bus Sakete Line ride to the "Twenty-Four Eyes Film Village" stop, then a short walk. Currently, there are few route buses from Tonosho Port, so a ferry boat departs almost daily from Olive Navi (Olive Beach) below Olive Park. The ferry ride takes about 10 minutes, making it significantly faster than driving. The fare is ¥500 for adults and ¥250 for children one way; an additional ¥250 is required for bicycles. This is an irregular route; they operate whenever there are passengers. Olive Navi offers free parking, so you can park your car there and use the ferry. Please note the ferry is small, holding only 12 passengers. Check the film village website for the operating schedule (generally late March to late November). Show route
