Here's a little bit about us:
Aloha! We are Chloe and Trey! On July 4, 2023, we decided to take a leap of faith and leave our jobs and life in Hawaii for a year of adventure around the world. So far, we have visited Mexico, Bali Indonesia, and now are in our third country, South Korea 🇰🇷! We're shooting for a small budget of $128/day (for both of us) but if the adventure is just right, we will treat ourselves to something really special!
Where to find us! ✨

Ive taken the same boat but i went from Busan to Fukuoka. There is an outside deck for standard class on the back of the boat and its accessible for the entire trip. I spent alot of time there and the fresh air really helps. When we were departing Korea a bunch of people met on the back deck and had champagne and cigars and we had a small party to toast farewell to Korea. Amazing trip.
Super useful, I'll be making this trip myself next month!
enjoyed this!!
Thank u soo much for video.
You're welcome! Thank you so much for watching. :)
See, that's one thing definitely different from European ferries is that you don't have to pay any extra or buy a business class ticket just to access the fresh air and the outside of the vessel.
That puts me off using a Japanese ferry right away.
Chillin in business class 👍🏼
Luxury bb 🥹
I think that aboard a ferry i would rather be outside breathing in the fresh air and being able to see what is going on, rather than be trapped inside eating unnecessary food.
Thanks 4 the nice video☺So you would recommend the business class? But have you been the only one there? Looks pretty empty in business class 😅
Yes we recommend business class! It's about $20 usd more than standard and less people, at least the day we chartered the boat. 🫶
Nice ferry! Totally better than a plane ride 🙌
Definitely! It was so luxurious. There's even like 2 free alcohol drinks and ice cream, we missed it on that one!! Next time 🤩
Hi , i am looking at same route as you.. either by beetle or camellia, but i couldn't figure my way to the port ...do you have any advise ? Like where and how can i get to the port ? Thanks !
We have that info in our blog post! Check it out here: thefroggyadventures.com/fukuoka-to-busan-ferry/#How_to_Get_to_the_Ferry_Port_in_Fukuoka
@chloeandtrey thank you ! But any idea where should I board the bus 88? Any particular exit at train station?
What was the experience like booking the ferry? Would you recommend visitng Busan during an 18 day trip to Japan?
Booking the ferry is super easy, you can do it online. Booking just needs to be done ahead of time or else you run the risk of not being able to get seats, especially during busy travel seasons.

Traveling through Asia is amazing! We're having the best time but we are mega jealous of yall! After that small taste of Van life we can't wait to try it in the US one day. But not sure what kinda van we'll be able to afford first hahah
How did you book the ticket? TY!

Visa is not needed?
We did not need a K-ETA visa since we have USA Passports. www.k-eta.go.kr/portal/board/viewboarddetail.do?bbsSn=149899
too expensive fare compare to flight
