Iriomote Island Pinaisara Falls Kayak & Trekking Small-Group Tour

Meet at Uehara Port
and head for Pinaisara Falls

Meet your guide at Uehara Port on Iriomote Island and ride a van for about 10 minutes to the kayak starting point. Pinaisara Falls lies within a protected national park area, so a certified guide must accompany visitors and daily visitors are limited to 200. The operator takes care of the required advance entry permit for you.

Kayak through the mangrove forest

Paddle for about 40 minutes through the lush mangrove forest. Kayak equipment is included, and your guide gives simple, attentive instructions in English or Japanese.

Trek through the jungle and swim at the falls

After leaving the kayaks, walk through the jungle for about 20 minutes to reach the Pinaisara Falls basin. Spend about 45 minutes taking photos, swimming in the cool water and relaxing. You can also enjoy a small, safe jump from the rocks into the water.

Return the same way and finish at Uehara Port

Trek back for about 20 minutes and kayak for 40 minutes, then return to Uehara Port by van to end the tour. The whole tour takes about 3 hours 30 minutes.
