Local Guide
Activity5 election I'd like to enjoy with a child at Iriomotejima

Iriomotejima where more than 90 % in an island is a subtropical jungle and is also a national park. It's a Okinawa prefecture and is a big island following a main island, nature a solitary island, everywhere, it spreads. You may be able to meet an Iriomote Cat of a natural monument in whole ActivityExperience at a mountain and a sea. 5 of Activity which can enjoy itself with a child was selected carefully while sensing nature at such Iriomotejima. Please refer built with memory with the family by all means.

The ecology tour that they're gentle with nature and the family

Experience which originated in an area when I wanted you to feel Iriomotejima by the five senses, and the Activity shop where sense is proposed. The one recommended to a family with a child below the elementary students is "at Iriomotejima, private flower (family) tour".
You arrange for a family a day of most suitable tour contents according to the request by limitation. Because it's the guide which knew everything of the site even to consider the tide level and the direction of the wind as well as the weather. You can also propose Activity which matches child's physical strength and age, so the family which participates for the first time is also relieved.

Activity which can enjoy itself with the family is plenty.

The swamp fall backlash at the jungle is also Iriomotejima, well.

A mangrove canoe, mangrove SUP, a sea kayak, jungle trekking, fall play, swamp play, a snorkel, a limestone cavern expedition and walk in mudflat are rich in variety in Activity which can be requested by a flower tour.
Attention is also 5 seater at the inside, "outrigger-canoe game". When a sense of togetherness goes out when I take it by everyone, the degree of satisfaction from the family has that, and it's also expensive popular Activity. There are also other plans recommended every season, so when making a reservation, I'll consult.

When it's fine, it's possible to go out to a sea by a canoe every season. I recommend the beginning of around May-October to swim at a sea, a river and a waterfall.

SUP Iriomotejima, by a parent and child, Experience.

SUP which can't choose a place and can enjoy itself casually
SUP which can't choose a place and can enjoy itself casually

The Activity shop where the tour guide who knew everything of a sea is here. I come near and enter a daily sea mostly aiming at a strong guide in a site, and it's said that they're learning from a sea. The program a popular one can enjoy by a parent and child at such shop "by a parent and child, SUP cruise".
On the presumption that I stand up and row, SUP (standup paddle surfing) is a made boat, and a water sport can enjoy everyone easily. Because a tour guide has a large selection of the gears which can be trusted, I'm relieved at the first time. It would be valuable Experience which can get a feel for nature in Iriomotejima while getting on SUP by a parent and child.

The snorkeling in which you can participate with a child is also charm.

The "gravel island" in snorkeling called an island of miracle in addition to SUP is also recommended. An area of the bank is spread in the circumference at a small desert island made from a piece of coral. I'm traced, so Experience is possible by a small child as well as a beginner, too.
When I dive in a sea, cityscape in the untouched water is spread, and you can meet a swarm of beautiful coral and fish. Only a specialist in Iriomotejima where a tour guide doesn't miss and is doing training of technology of a paddle and rescue and physical strength every day. You can also tell snorkeling tightly from basic technology at a first way, so I'm relieved.

To one of the biggest coral reef areas in Japan "stone west coral-reef lagoon" "MAIBISHI".

The sightseeing boat in the water which can enjoy coral and a tropical fish

The biggest coral reef area in Japan which spreads between Iriomotejima and Ishigakijima "stone west coral-reef lagoon (cough cause evidence)". A popular one is to be able to see the coral reef of "MAIBISHI" which is one in this area of sea and undersea uncooked food in the ship, and "sightseeing boat dugong in the water". The emerald green sea spread in immediateness tells grandness of the great outdoors.
Photography spot popular with the children by whom a harbor on and the Ohara harbor it's were colored with a picture of a lot of dugongs. It's also fun to search for a gift for the memory of the travel by sailing time.

The undersea walk which can be enjoyed casually with a child

About 40 people can enter a dive room.

A dive room is provided for this sightseeing boat. When I arrive at a point of coral and a tropical fish, an approximately 2 m of dive office dives to the underseaness. When it can be observed carefully by the sense to seem to be doing a walk in the water at all in the sea, it's famous. There are no things flooded with water actually, so even the small child who doesn't like water is relieved. I may be excited to see the fish swum immediately unconsciously.
For navigation to be sometimes canceled by weather and the hydrographic conditions condition, it would hope sees and that I reserve the weather. When a measure is kept beforehand, the person with a possibility of the motion sickness is relieved.

Simple canoe Experience is charm.

The reservation is also OK on the day. A condition of everyday clothes can be enjoyed without any definite purpose.

The Activity shop where "safety and improvement of comfort" are made a motto so that even a small child can be relieved and enjoy himself safely. "Canoe Experience" which can enjoy itself in the parent and child three generation until the generation 60 years old from 4 years old is popular. I need no special preparations for the course where I stuck to paddle a canoe simply.
The required time is a little less than 3 hours. It's the schedule put together the time of the ferry which departs Ishigakijima, so it's also a wonderful point that the surrounding plan is easy to make. It's possible to see "Taki of" PINAISARA who takes pride in the gap of Okinawa one at a turn spot of a canoe.

I recommend a course of a fall private inquiry and a set for summer.

A fall private inquiry at midsummer, cool air, it's taken, it fits well.

I recommend the course where a canoe by "cooler river" and a fall private inquiry made one set for summer. It's the tour that one way for 20 minutes is compact, natural beauty is condensed, impression filling. A jungle in Iriomotejima, casually, Experience, can.
The "waterfall of" a cooler where even short distance fits into a frame is a photography spot popular with photograph fanciers, too. I'll recommend to take the family picture with the waterfall which drops beautifully in the background.

Which are the short course which is recommended to the person who had some time a little. Basin Experience in summer is cool and feels good.

The Yubu-jima by which the whole island is a tropical botanical garden

Buffalos necessary to history of Yubu-jima
Buffalos necessary to history of Yubu-jima

A very small island of the surrounding 2km at the 400m to the east from Iriomotejima. Former days were a densely populated island so that school opened the school but many residents moved to Iriomotejima by damage by a typhoon in 1969. Because a resident married couple of such inside and 1 set kept planting a tropical plant, the whole island is in a tropical botanical garden present. An unusual shell is also seen around the island, and children can see the view which enjoys shell picking and a hermit crab search everywhere.
It's recommended to call from Iriomotejima for about 15 minutes to Yubu-jima and cross by buffalo car. It's also apparent for a child to be glad about an unusual buffalo car.

When I say the landscape which seems to be Yubu-jima, buffalo car

The "pond of" a buffalo where Shimauchi has that, a case that the buffalos which like water very much are flooded with well throughout the day. The ideal spot which can touch buffalos

Sightseeing of Yubu-jima can't miss existence of a buffalo car. The buffalo which lives in Yubu-jima is quite more numerous than the population, and each 1 name is put. They're gentle to man by the gentle character basically, too, I have a sharp corner. A small child will pay attention so that he doesn't approach a corner.
And the spot another can't be overlooked by Yubu-jima, "Great bougainvillea garden". The time to be looked in is limited Great bougainvillea by an area, but it's possible to lay eyes at any time of the year around by Yubu-jima. It's the best season in particular from the end of autumn to March.

Something by which shaking of the buffalo car which is felt while being bathed in the style of the gentle tropics feels good best. One expression is different, so please compare one buffalo by all means.
