Ishigaki
Ishigaki City is the southernmost city in Japan and is located about 2,000 kilometers from Tokyo. The island itself has beautiful beaches and challenging hiking trails. A detour to the Hirakubo Peninsula, which is sparsely populated and captivates with its naturalness, is impressive. While snorkeling along the coast, you can catch a glimpse of the impressive manta rays from time to time. In the interior, a hike to the volcano Mount Omoto, which rises 500 meters into the air, offers a magnificent view of the beach of Yonehara.
Ishigaki ferry port is located on the island of Ishigaki-jima and offers connections to the islands of Kohama, Taketomi, Iriomote and Hatoma as well as to the ferry port of Kuroshima in Japan. A total of 6 routes are offered here several times a day by the shipping companies Ishigaki Dream Tours and Yaeyama Kanko Ferry.
