What you can expect

Enjoy an unforgettable day trip starting from Ishigaki Ferry Terminal, combining marine adventure with island exploration. Meet your guide and set off towards Hamajima, also known as the “Phantom Island,” a stunning sandbar that only appears at low tide. Surrounded by crystal-clear, emerald-blue waters, this unique spot offers breathtaking panoramic views and a perfect setting for memorable photos.

After taking in the scenery, continue to one of Okinawa’s top snorkelling locations near the island. With guidance from your experienced instructor, receive a brief lesson before entering the water, making this activity suitable even for beginners. Swim among vibrant coral reefs and a variety of colourful tropical fish, experiencing the beauty of the ocean up close. Throughout the tour, your guide will capture special moments with a waterproof camera, allowing you to fully enjoy the experience without worry.

Following your snorkelling adventure, return to Ishigaki Ferry Port and board a return ferry to Taketomi Island. Once there, you are free to explore at your own pace. Wander through charming traditional streets lined with red-tiled houses and stone walls, or relax on serene beaches with shallow, turquoise waters. The island offers a peaceful atmosphere and a glimpse into Okinawa’s traditional lifestyle.

You can return to Ishigaki Island at any time using your ferry ticket, giving you flexibility to plan your day as you wish. This eco-friendly tour is thoughtfully designed with sustainability in mind, allowing you to enjoy the natural beauty of the region while helping to preserve it for future generations.
