Product Info

  • A cruising experience where you can ride a traditional Okinawan wooden boat, the 'Sabani', and watch the sunset paint the vast nature of the Hirakubo Peninsula in shades of vermilion. Enjoy a romantic view while experiencing a quiet voyage without engine noise on a Sabani that moves using the wind and oars (eeku). This plan is recommended for couples and anniversaries, creating a truly special moment. ✨️What is a Sabani?✨️ Sabani is a traditional wooden boat passed down in Okinawa since ancient times. Because it uses sails to harness the wind, there is no engine noise, offering an exhilarating and quiet ride across the sea. The feeling of working together to row forward is truly wonderful!! Since it relies on the power of nature and teamwork, even those who are not confident in their physical strength can participate with peace of mind! It was the means by which our ancestors crossed the sea. Let's cruise the beautiful seas of Ishigaki Island on a Sabani.
