The half-day tour takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the stay at Hatenohama is 1.5 hours from April to October and 1 hour from November to March. It is recommended for those who want to visit other tourist spots for the remaining half of the day and those who have small children. Snorkel rental is also available as an option! ☆The charm of Hatenohama☆1: The main thing is the sea! The sea around Kumejima is known for its transparency, but the sea at Hatenohama is by far the clearest. You can even see the coral 2-3 meters below the surface in the emerald green sea. 2: Endless sandy beach The view of the white sandy beach lit up by the sunlight stretches out endlessly, giving you a feeling of air you can't experience in your everyday life. 3: A wide sky with a 360-degree view Since there is nothing around, you can see the sky that stretches out in 360 degrees. Just watching the cumulonimbus clouds moving on the wind and the plane trails flying high into the sky makes you feel the majesty of nature.

The glass-bottom boat has a glass bottom, and you can enjoy the view of the seabed from there. The area around Hate-no-hama is a shallow inland sea created by the uplift of natural coral. Therefore, many corals spread to a depth of 2 to 3 meters from the sea surface without being affected by high waves from the outside, and many tropical fish and sea turtles live there in their natural state.

Hate-no-hama is an island made of only sandy beaches and coral fragments, which floats about 3 km southeast of Kume Island. There is nothing blocking your line of sight other than the hut and temporary toilets you use for breaks, and you can enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view. In addition, you are free to take home coral fragments and shells on the beach. There are also beautiful shells and corals that can be used as accessories! Also, pay attention to the hermit crabs, the residents of Hate-no-hama!
