Welcome to our canoe tour set in the rich mangrove forests of Amami Oshima. You will not be with other tour guests at our shop. We aim to provide a completely private and memorable tour. Canoes are available in single and double seater. (A highly stable canoe for beginners) = Single seater = Excellent stability and maneuverability, ideal for people aged 7 to 60 years old. Designed for beginners to enjoy with peace of mind, it is chosen by many guests. = Double seater = Recommended for families with small children or when riding with elderly people. You can experience the fun of rowing together in unison. Mangrove forests are places that are affected by the ebb and flow of the ocean tides. The characteristic of this tour is that you can enjoy different scenery depending on the ebb and flow of the tides. At low tide, it is easy to observe the ecosystem under the water, and at high tide, you can enjoy the magnificent view of the mangroves from the water. Experience the extraordinary beauty of each time of day when you join the tour and enjoy a new encounter with the nature of Amami. Our tours go from the upstream of the river to the mouth of the river. The course then mainly returns upstream from the river mouth. You can choose the meeting place according to your convenience. You can meet at our free parking lot near the airport in the north of Amami, or if you are staying in Amami City, which is on the way to the canoeing venue, you can meet in the city or meet at the site!

This is a tour where you can row a canoe at both high and low tides. However, when the tide is high, the canoe travels through the channels inside the mangroves, and when the tide is low, the tidal flats appear, so they land on the tidal flats. If you have a preference, please let us know when making your reservation.・About tour safety The guide for this tour will be an instructor who has taken a kayak training program.

Amami Oshima was registered as a World Natural Heritage Site in 2021. As the reason for its registration is ``biodiversity,'' this island has many unique flora and fauna. Yuwandake is the most important place where many endemic species live. There are two routes to climb Mt. Yuwandake, but on this tour, you will walk up the wooden stairs from the 9th parking lot to the observation deck and shrine near the top. It's not a mountain trail, so it's easy to walk, and you can observe plants unique to Mt. Yuwandake along the way. (Anyone who has no problem walking or going up and down stairs in daily life can participate. The walk will take about 30 minutes each way.) On a clear day, you can see a wide view of Amami Oshima from the observation deck. However, as the name ``cloud forest'' suggests, Mt. Yuwandake has a unique environment where clouds and fog gather throughout the year, and there is a lot of rain. Therefore, if you're lucky you can see the view from the observation deck, but for me (the guide), the real view is on rainy days. We want you to enjoy this natural environment! After Mt. Yuwandake, we will stop at Materia Falls to take commemorative photos and have tea time. Date: Meet at Naze Sports Park in Amami City or pick up at hotel ↓ Transfer to Mt. Yuwandake (travel time varies depending on the pick-up location) Arrival at Mt. Yuwandake parking lot ↓ Arrive at Nature Walk Observation Deck/Shrine while observing flora and fauna ↓ Arrival at Shimoyama parking lot ↓ Transfer 15 minutes Materia Falls ↓ Arrive at hotel on the way back
