Activity Japan Hello to all of you, summer is the end of my desire to go to the sea. I also like the winter sea, but I'll leave it for a while. I want to conquer the remote islands of Okinawa, but I was wondering if there was a place to play in the beautiful sea other than Okinawa, and when I was looking at various plans, I was overwhelmed by the charm of Yoron Island in Kagoshima and the Ogasawara Islands in Tokyo. Every day. Overseas is good, but I also like the Japanese sea. Flight charges are also cheaper than overseas. I haven't researched it so much for some reason, but I realized that Amami Oshima is also good, so I'm going to research it. Why don't you make wonderful summer memories on Amami Oshima?

It is said that the "best waves" will rise, and it is also a paradise that surfers long for. In mangrove, you can enjoy the scenery rich in nature by canoeing and SUP experience. There are also direct flights from major cities to Amami Airport, and due to its easy access, many tours are organized, making it a popular tourist destination for a wide range of people, including families and couples. The island's local dish, "Keihan," is rice topped with steamed chicken, brocade eggs, and pickles, and sprinkled with chicken soup. It is a recommended menu that you should try once during your trip.

The more I research Amami Oshima, the more I really want to go, but I was wondering if I could remove the mangrove, so I would like to introduce this plan.

Safe for beginners. Nattoku. You can relax and enjoy the beautiful mangroves of Amami.

<Basic information>
Number of people that can be reserved: 1 person ~
Meeting place: Mangrove Chaya (7, Sumiyo Village, Oshima District, Kagoshima Prefecture)
Fee: Adults 1.700 yen / Children 1.300 yen

This course is 1.700 yen in 90 minutes, which is very cheap compared to other plans is the point. Looking at the word-of-mouth, it seems that it is almost free action after first having the instructor lecture on how to operate canoes. I think that it seems not to be suitable for those who want to guide firmly, but I think that it is very attractive for those who want to have the freedom to relax. Extension is 1.500 yen for two hours, so it is ideal for a mood shop who seemed to be doing good at the beginning at 90 minutes but would like to have more fun on the way.

as a side note
☆ The difference between canoeing and kayaking is that canoeing is generally open deck and you can load a lot of luggage, and closed deck type is kayaking. The difference from a boat is that you can row forward with a single paddle.

The shape of the canoe is an image that the freedom of the lower body does not work when it is turned over, but what about it? If it's the sea, the greenish water mangrove has fallen and I can't get my feet out! If you do, you may panic, but you can rent a life jacket, so you can rest assured. In the first place, canoeing is so stable that it hardly turns over. I'm not very confident about canoeing or kayaking because my upper body is fluffy, but I have a desire to try it! If I run out of physical strength on the way and I am alone, I may really die, so I would like to invite someone to participate. I'll do push-ups when I feel like it for that day. I don't feel like I can do it even once.
