Product Info

  • For those looking for a surprising experience with a loved one on Iriomote Island at night! How about gazing at the starry sky and the Milky Way? With the sounds of birds singing at night as background music, you can leisurely gaze at the starry sky from a canoe. The mangroves at night also have a unique atmosphere. You can also see bioluminescent plankton glowing in the trails left by your paddle. This will take place at the mouth of the Urauchi River, the longest river in Okinawa Prefecture. There are no waves or currents, so it is safe. Beginners are welcome. Overnight stay on Iriomote Island is required.
  • Iriomote Island is the place in Japan where you can see the most stars and the most beautiful stars!
  • Iriomote Island in the Yaeyama Islands offers the most abundant and beautiful stargazing in Japan. All 21 first-magnitude stars are visible, and 84 of the 88 constellations can be seen. With the sounds of birdsong as background music, you can gaze at the starry sky and see the mysteriously glowing "noctiluca" in the sea. From January to June, the "Southern Cross" can be seen in the southern sky, and from July to September, the Summer Triangle and the Milky Way can be seen. When meteor showers approach, shooting stars will streak across the sky. Why not experience this mystical night world with your loved one?
  • Canoeing and trekking. Beginners are welcome!
  • The Milky Way, a sight you can't see in the city. A sky full of stars, shooting stars, artificial satellites—if the weather is good in June, you might even be able to see the Southern Cross. And bioluminescent plankton glow eerily underwater. Everything is unlike anything you've ever seen before. If it's a full moon, you'll be amazed at how bright the moon is. If the timing is right, you can even witness a once-a-year celestial show. It's also a popular surprise gift.
  • How about a barbecue after the night tour?
  • After the tour, you can enjoy a barbecue (from ¥3500) on the cafe's outdoor deck under the starry sky. Reservations are required the day before, so please inquire.

You can lie in a canoe and gaze at the starry sky.
