No. 1 starry sky environment in Ishigaki Island! Go to "shooting star hill" which is also a starry sky reserve certified area! Starry sky tour ☆彡The feature is the number of shooting stars! Giant arch of the Milky Way! To be honest, if you don't come this far, you can't see this starry sky. A professional starry sky guide will guide you through the starry sky based on the characteristics of Ishigaki Island. Furthermore, when the sanshin sings live, the beautiful stars that can only be felt here will pierce your heart. ~ Flow of the day ~ ① Story about the stars of Ishigaki Island ② Guidance of the starry sky of Ishigaki Island ③ Starry sky observation with binoculars ④ Sanshin live performance * Sanshin live will be held with 5 or more tour participants.
The International Dark-Sky Association (IDA), which consists of astronomers from around the world, recognizes only about 70 internationally recognized dark-sky reserves in three ranks that deserve to protect the sky environment. There is no place in Japan yet. However, the Kuura area on the Hirakubo Peninsula on Ishigaki Island is currently the first candidate area for certification as a "Starry Sky Conservation Area" in Japan. In other words, "Shooting Star Hill Kuura" is the world's highest level starry sky!
It's hard to say "I can see shooting stars!" With confidence, but here in Kuura, it's normal to have five during a one-hour tour. I was impressed by the variety of shooting stars when I observed so many shooting stars, even though I observed 10 when there were many. There are various types such as a momentary type that disappears in an instant, a super long type that is long enough to make a wish about 3 times from the west to the east, and an explosion type that a green thick thunder runs and shines like fireworks. Your heart will be pierced by the shooting stars here in Kuura ☆
The stars and moon on Ishigaki Island show their beauty that can only be seen here when the song of the Sanshin, which is the culture of this area, echoes. The sound of the sanshin echoes comfortably in your heart, and the universe spreading in front of you swallows your consciousness. And any worries, any sufferings, maybe tiny things. The sound of the sanshin will lead you to a soothing starry sky journey so that you can meet each of you.

オプションのﾊﾝﾓｯｸで星空浮遊体験 ﾊﾝﾓｯｸで揺られながら満天の星空を見上げたことがありますか？全天が埋め尽くされるほどの星空の下でハンモックに揺られるとまるで宇宙をにいるかのようです。
流れ星が高確率 なぜ流れ星が高確率なのか？それは石垣島の中でも、私どものツアー会場が特別暗い場所にあるからです。真っ暗な場所なので、明るい場所では見えない小さな流れ星がはっきり見えるから流れ星が高確率で見えてしまいます。
石垣島の中でも特別な場所にある 石垣島は何処でも満天の星空が見える訳ではありません。石垣島の市内から一番遠い場所にある星空観測所が流れ星の丘です。
星空フォトがオプションにある 星空フォトは専用のカメラとレンズで長年の経験があるプロのカメラマンが行うのでとてもお勧めです。一生に一度の体験を是非お土産にしてください。
久宇良公民館公認事業 私たちは他のツアーと少し違います。地元の人間で運営されており、この地域と密接に連携して環境保全にも取り組んでいます。
星が全く見えない時は 自然を相手にする星空ツアーは晴れ予報でも現地で曇って星が全く見れなくなってしまう事もあります。そんな時は、石垣島の亜熱帯のジャンクるでナイトツアーに切り替える事も可能です。蛍やヤシガニや見ると幸運が訪れる夜にしか咲かない花サガリバナを熟練のガイドがご案内します。
