FULL ITINERARY
Your private guide will greet you at the port with a welcome sign. After a warm greeting, you'll be transferred comfortably to your first destination: Torinji Temple, one of the oldest wooden buildings in Okinawa Prefecture. The temple is known for its unique architecture, with ancient structures and religious decorations that offer a glimpse into Okinawa’s spiritual heritage. Take a moment to stroll around and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.
Next, we head to Ishigaki Yaima Village, a lively theme park where you can experience the making of Sata Andagi, a traditional Okinawan sweet, and try on Ryukyu clothes. The village is also home to adorable squirrel monkeys, which you can interact with and feed. Explore the tropical flora and fauna of the village and enjoy local specialties at the restaurants and souvenir shops.
Afterward, we make our way to the Banna Mountain Observation Deck. Once you reach the top, enjoy a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean or the East China Sea, as well as the city streets below. The park also features a beautiful plant path full of colorful butterflies, and a large play area for children.
Next, we visit Kabira Bay, renowned for its crystal-clear waters and stunning landscape. Take a leisurely stroll along the beach or, if you wish, enjoy a glass-bottom boat trip or snorkeling (at your own expense) to explore the underwater world and spot giant crabs or clownfish.
If possible, we will also visit the Emerald Sea Observatory Deck for an unforgettable panoramic view of the emerald waters and surrounding coastline. After soaking in the beautiful landscape, we will head back to the port.
