Iriomote is a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site: about 90% of the island is subtropical jungle, home to Japan's largest mangrove forest and rare wildlife such as the Iriomote cat.
This full-day tour (9:00–15:30) packs three Iriomote classics into one: a SUP or canoe paddle through the mangroves, a landing on Barasu, the tiny island made of white coral, and a visit to Yubu Island. The timing works as a day trip from Ishigaki.

Sightseeing on Yubu Island (ticket included)
Free photos: your guide shoots the whole tour on a waterproof camera and shares all the photo data at no extra cost.
