Plan introduction( Jungle Night Walk )
In Ishigaki Island, the jungle walking tours are offered not only during the daytime, but also at night.
In this Jungle Night Tour, you can explore the jungle at night when nocturnal creatures are on the move.
With headlights illuminating the road, we will take you to secret places that are not even listed in guidebooks and that only local people know about.
Along the way, you will see a variety of subtropical flora and fauna and the best starry sky in Japan.
You will be able to see a wide variety of creatures, including the endangered “coconut crab,” a popular night tour creature, flying foxes, hermit crabs, owls, and many more.
Weather permitting, you will be able to see a star-filled sky.
The starry sky of Ishigaki Island was recognized as the only “Starry Sky Reserve” in Japan in April 2018.
Please experience the natural planetarium.
