Tour Itinerary (6 Hours)

We’ll meet you right at Ishigaki Cruise Port, with timing adjusted to match your ship’s arrival.
Our starting point may shift depending on the day’s conditions, but your journey begins the moment we greet you.
Pickup is a complimentary free option, so you can simply step ashore and start your adventure.

Yaima Village is a living showcase of Yaeyama’s past, with beautifully preserved red-tiled houses, traditional Okinawan architecture, and encounters with squirrel monkeys, water buffalo, and rare wildlife. It’s where history, nature, and island life come together in one charming place.

Oganzaki is a stunning cape where vivid blue seas, a white lighthouse, and lush mountains meet under endless skies. Steeped in legend, it offers sweeping, easily accessible views that capture Ishigaki’s raw beauty and the meeting of land, sea, and sky.

Kabira Bay, a three-star Michelin Green Guide site, is known for its turquoise waters, emerald islets, and serene Kabira Kannon Temple. A glass-bottom boat reveals coral reefs, tropical fish, and sometimes sea turtles.

Yonehara Beach lets you meet Ishigaki’s beauty at your own pace.
Walk barefoot on coral sand, watch hermit crabs wander, or gaze at the place where turquoise sea, white sand, and green hills embrace.
It’s a quiet shore where the island’s gentle energy seeps into your heart.

Shisa Park bursts with color and personality, where giant guardian lions each tell their own story.
Playful, fierce, or just delightfully quirky, they invite you to smile, wonder, and feel the freedom to be unapologetically yourself.
It’s a joyful space that celebrates individuality and the spirit to live boldly.

Banna Park invites you into Ishigaki’s subtropical jungle with an easy, refreshing walk anyone can enjoy.
Butterflies dance, birds sing, and the forest’s gentle energy seems to lighten each step.
Here, harmony with nature feels as simple—and as uplifting—as breathing in the island’s fragrant air.
