Where to go
JR Okayama Station. Use the named facility and on-site signs; no station-floor or port-entrance geometry is implied by this diagram.
If full, closed or too large
Do not assume another locker size solves a width problem. Check the actual opening. If the facility cannot take your bag, keep it with you and ask the official information point for current alternatives. Check the locker size guide for a conservative measurement method.
Onward: Uno Station / Port
If you are not returning here, take the bag onward. Read the next local luggage guide → Check the ferry operator's current routes separately where your trip uses a ferry.
