[Exclusive Discount] Ishigaki Sunrise Kayak Experience

A Different Kind of Start with Fresh Morning Air,
Savor the Morning in Ishigaki

Join your guide while the sky is still dark. Meeting at Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal or hotel pickup is available, making early morning travel easy. The exact meeting time will be finalized in a contact the day before. This ensures a more stable experience, as the best flow is adjusted to match the day's weather, sunrise time, and field conditions. After joining, you'll start preparing to see the sunrise properly, rather than immediately kayaking. The moving lines and order of progress are briefly shared, and after checking that you are wearing clothes that can get wet, you will be helped with equipment. Then, move to the Miyara River mangrove field in the guide's vehicle. Since it's early morning, the road is relatively quiet, so it's good to quietly improve your condition without moving stress.

When you arrive at the site, take light photos against the backdrop of the mangroves, and wear a life jacket and exclusive shoes. You can prepare in a calmer atmosphere before the sun rises, and you will first be guided on safety standards and observation manners before going out on the water.

Greet the Sunrise by Kayak on the Miyara River Mangroves

Before departure, learn only the essential points such as how to paddle, change direction, and adjust speed simply. The tour has a high percentage of beginners, so it is conducted in a way that allows you to follow comfortably, rather than going too fast.

When you take a canoe and enter, the mangroves spread out on both sides and the sound decreases dramatically. There is a feeling that only the sound of the wind and water remain, so there are moments when your mind is organized just by floating. When the sunrise timing approaches, you can watch the scene of the sun rising from the canoe in a section where the view is clear. Because the light is more reflected on the water, it often feels much clearer and more dramatic than you think.

Free Photo Data Provided, Leave Unforgettable Memories in One Photo

During the tour, the guide continues to take photos, so you can receive the photo data for free after the tour. Satisfaction increases when photos remain of the early morning tour, and this part is really reassuring. After the experience, local participants will be dismissed on site, and pickup users will move back to the terminal or accommodation. In addition, a special page that collects information on restaurants, coupons, and hidden spots is also provided exclusively for participants, so it's good to continue with a more fulfilling schedule after the tour.
