[Okinawa Prefecture] Miyako Island's largest mangrove colony: Shimajiri Mangrove Forest

Shimajiri Mangrove Forest is the largest mangrove colony in Miyakojima and is also a natural monument designated by Miyako City. 🌳

The only place on the island where you can see all the types of mangroves that grow wild on Miyakojima. ✌️

Mangroves are distinctive plants with roots that look like octopus tentacles, roots that protrude from the ground, and roots that extend like boards. 👀

You can see the whole view here and feel the strong vitality of the trees. 🌍

The promenade is well-maintained, so you can take a leisurely stroll through nature. ✨

*There are many crabs with red claws on the mangrove tidal flats, and the red claws and the green of the mangroves create an exquisite landscape. 🦀
