[Iriomote Island] The Galapagos of the Orient in Iriomote Island

📍Iriomote Island

Go to Iriomote Island by boat from Ishigaki Island

It is the second largest island in Okinawa Prefecture, and 90% of it is covered by subtropical forest.

You can actually go on a day trip to this island, as well as stay overnight.

I enjoyed the nature on this day trip, so please use it as a reference🔖

⚫︎Access

From Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island by Anei Kanko boat arriving at Uehara, Iriomote Island

From Uehara Port, take the free shuttle bus (about 15 minutes) operated by the shipping company (Anei Kanko) to the cruise ship dock

⚫︎Sightseeing
Take a cruise ship to tour the mangroves.

Not only is it fun to meet wild boars and birds, but the captain's commentary is also fun.

The staff who are familiar with Iriomote Island will give you a commentary according to the situation on the spot.

*Because the untouched nature remains, the footing is unstable👟
Comfortable shoes and hiking style are essential!
Sandals are dangerous, so shoes are best🙆
*There are few convenience stores and lunches, so it's best to buy them on Ishigaki Island before heading out🙆♀️
*The pick-up time for the cruise ship may not be fixed
When you get off the cruise ship and go around the jungle, be sure to check!
