Plan description

Board a traditional Okinawan wooden boat, the "Sabani," and experience the natural beauty of the Hirakubo Peninsula on this cruise. You'll land on a private beach accessible only by boat, and enjoy a special moment on the soft sand. This plan allows you to feel one with nature as you sail silently without engine noise. ✨️What is a Sabani?✨️Sabanis are traditional wooden boats passed down in Okinawa since ancient times. Powered by wind and sailing with a sail, they offer an exhilarating experience of silently sailing across the ocean without engine noise. The feeling of rowing together is truly amazing! Since you'll be working together with the power of nature, even those who aren't confident in their physical strength can participate with peace of mind! Cruise the beautiful waters of Ishigaki Island on a Sabani, the same way our ancestors crossed the sea.

Cruising on a traditional Okinawan boat, the Sabani

You can enjoy a quiet voyage without engine noise on a sabani, which is propelled by wind and oars. Feeling the natural breeze while cruising the beautiful seas of the Hirakubo Peninsula is an extraordinary experience.

Landing on a private beach

You can land on a private beach that can only be reached by boat and enjoy a special moment on the soft sand. You can avoid the crowds and relax in the quiet nature.

A support system that is safe for beginners and children

Experienced guides will accompany you and provide support with safety in mind. Life jackets are also available for rental so that those who cannot swim and small children can participate with peace of mind.
