Enjoy a romantic view while sailing quietly on a sabani propelled by wind and oars, without the sound of an engine. This plan is perfect for couples and special occasions, creating a memorable experience. ✨What is a Sabani?✨ A sabani is a traditional wooden boat that has been passed down in Okinawa for centuries. It is propelled by sails and wind, so the exhilarating feeling of sailing quietly across the sea without the sound of an engine is superb. The feeling of working together to row is truly wonderful! As you will be propelled by the power of nature and everyone's cooperation, even those who are not confident in their physical strength can participate with peace of mind! Let's cruise the beautiful seas of Ishigaki Island in a sabani, the same means by which our ancestors crossed the seas.
