- Spot introduction -

  • Mangrove forest (Iriomote Island)
    Iriomote Island, known as "Japan's last unexplored region," is overflowing with overwhelming natural beauty. SUP/canoeing experiences amidst this vast natural environment are standard activities on the island. At your destination, Lucky Waterfall, in addition to playing in the pool at the waterfall, you can also take commemorative photos on a natural swing made of giant vines reminiscent of "Jack and the Beanstalk"!
  • Star Sand Beach Located at the northern tip of Iriomote Island, star-shaped sand can be seen everywhere on the beach. Star sand is not what you would call "sand," but the skeletons of foraminifera, a type of protozoan, that have washed up on the beach. The skeletons resemble a star, hence the name. They are just under 1mm in size and have a slight reddish tint. The sea is home to an abundance of coral and tropical fish, and the waves are gentle, so you can enjoy swimming and snorkeling.

  • Sangara Falls
    Sangara Falls is a secretly popular waterfall where you can experience canoeing, trekking, and playing in the waterfall basin all in a short amount of time. Although it is small, with a drop of 3m, it is wide at about 30m and is famous for its large number of freshwater shrimp. Near the waterfall, you can enter potholes in the ground or under the waterfall. Also nearby is Pinaisara Falls, the largest in Okinawa Prefecture with a drop of 55m.
