Lucky Flower, Sagari-bana

Sagari-bana, which means luck, can only be seen for a limited period of time, and is also called the 'Ghost Flower' because it blooms only at night and withers in the morning. If you want to make your trip to Ishigaki Island, Okinawa more special, be sure to take this tour. The moment you start to see the flowers in the dark, the atmosphere changes as the colors and scents come in at the same time. On days when many flowers are in bloom, it can feel like a truly fantastic flower path. If the weather is good, take some time to look up at the sky while moving or after viewing. On days when the stars are visible, it can feel like a natural planetarium itself.

The guide will take photos during the tour, and the photo data is provided free of charge. A more valuable tour as you move to the Sagari-bana observation spot guided by the guide and hear explanations about various creatures and stars! Spend a fantastic night on Ishigaki Island.
