Ishigaki is home to some of the most spectacular sea in Japan. Crystal clear water and brightly coloured coral abound. This tour will take you to both Kabira Bay and the Blue Cave.
Kabira Bay is a protected area where normal swimming is not allowed. They do allow glass-bottom boats, kayaks and stand-up paddle boards. This tour allows you to try SUP or kayaking on this glorious emerald water. You will then stop for lunch at a recommended local restaurant before donning your snorkel and venturing into the "Blue Cave". Like the name suggests, the water in the cave seems to glow bright blue, and the water transparency is perfect. You can swim with the fish, and then rinse off in a nearby waterfall.
