Okinawa Prefecture
Okinawa, Japan’s southern island paradise, is famed for its turquoise seas, subtropical climate, and rich Ryukyu heritage. Beyond its stunning beaches, the main island offers world-class diving, vibrant coral reefs, and historic sites like Shuri Castle and the Nakijin and Nakagusuku Castle Ruins. Visitors can explore traditional villages, lush forests, and unique cultural experiences year-round. Okinawa’s food scene is equally captivating, featuring local specialties such as Okinawa Soba and slow-braised Rafutee. With its blend of natural beauty, history, and warm island hospitality, Okinawa promises an unforgettable journey in every season.

Fantastic 5.0
Riding a scooter for the first time in Okinawa was quite a fresh experience. Compared to driving a car, it felt very natural, just like riding in Taiwan, except for riding on the left side of the road. Plus, the pick-up location was conveniently right next to Oroku Station. I'll definitely rent a scooter again next time I visit!

I experienced very professional and thoughtful service when renting a car here. Self-service pickup and return were completely hassle-free. During my ride, the weather turned bad, and the merchant proactively reminded me about slippery roads and to be careful, going beyond just a simple car rental. Receiving such a thoughtful reminder while traveling abroad made me feel very secure. I highly recommend this to anyone visiting Ishigaki Island.

Having Chinese-speaking service is really convenient. Booking on Klook is slightly cheaper than booking on the official website. After adding insurance, it's about NT$2,000 for 24 hours. The owner has a good attitude, though they are a bit slow to respond to messages. The scooter is in good condition, and the helmet is also very good with no strange odors. Plus, free raincoats are provided.

Today’s weather was not good, but our tour guide, Buzz tried his best to teach us how to play canoe and the knowledge about mangroves. The scenery was beautiful, the tour was definitely worth to join. Overall, we enjoyed the experience very much😃

This was a fantastic experience on Ishigaki Island. The location is very close to the city center, making transportation extremely convenient and saving a lot of travel time. While it might not be the most budget-friendly option, the overall service definitely makes up for it.
Originally, I planned to try SUP, but because I had too many belongings, I decided last minute to switch to kayaking. It was my first time kayaking, and I was a bit worried, but it turned out to be very stable, and even beginners can easily handle it.
I especially want to commend our instructor, Sota. He was incredibly enthusiastic and talkative, patiently and warmly assisting participants throughout the entire experience, which made everyone feel very comfortable. Most importantly, his English communication was perfectly fine, making it very friendly for foreign tourists, so there's no need to worry about communication issues. Paddling through the mangroves felt very peaceful and relaxing, and Sota even proactively helped take photos, capturing this unique experience.

Despite being the only non-Japanese speaking participants on the tour, we were well-guided and had a fun SUP tour. Highly recommended! Miyakojima no Peach Hime.

We visited as a group of five, and four of us participated in SUP. One person was concerned about swimming and only joined for the transfer, but the staff's service was very polite and reassuring. Our flight was delayed, but they kindly adjusted the time for us, which we truly appreciate. The SUP experience itself was enjoyable with thorough instruction, and we were very satisfied to receive many wonderful photos and videos. Thank you for a fantastic time! We made some great memories in Miyakojima!
