What To Expect
Ishigaki Yaima Village
Step into the traditional island life of the Yaeyama Islands through preserved wooden homes, stone walls, local music, and subtropical nature. This cultural village offers a relaxed and immersive glimpse into how people once lived across Okinawa’s southern islands before modern development.
Cape Oganzaki
One of Ishigaki Island’s most breathtaking coastal landscapes, where dramatic cliffs, open ocean, and a solitary white lighthouse meet the endless horizon. With strong sea breezes, wide panoramic views, and the sound of waves below, Oganzaki offers a refreshing and deeply scenic moment along the island’s rugged western coast.

Relaxed and perfectly organized tour

5.00We took two tours with our guide Sander and were thrilled. The first tour was the private island tour. Sander showed us great spots and also shared a lot about the island and its history. We did not have to worry about anything; Sander had everything on board (drinks, snacks, towels, etc.). The second tour, which we spontaneously booked a day later, went to a great beach with a beautiful reef for snorkeling. This excursion was also perfectly prepared (Sander even managed to get suitable suits on short notice). We can recommend him without reservation!
Excellent tour on all...
