This is a tour where you can walk through the great nature of Kurima Island, a remote island in Miyako Island, and meditate on the beach. We will guide you to spots where you can get a sense of fulfillment that you cannot get from everyday life by walking through the beautiful ocean, quiet forests, and expansive sugar cane fields. At the end of the tour, you will meditate while swaying in a hammock on a deserted beach while staring at the beautiful sunset and the energetic sun. This is the most relaxing tour. For those who are tired from daily life and want to relax, those who want to spend some quiet time, those who lack exercise, would you like to heal together? [Morning activity tour 7:00~] [Sunset tour 15:30~] The contents of both plans are the same.
