[Okinawa] Kayama Island, a deserted island where you can enjoy rabbits, beaches, and nature

Kayama Island (official name: Kayamajima Island) is a remote island lying between Ishigaki Island and Kohama Island in the Yaeyama Islands of Okinawa. It is a small island that can be walked around in an hour, and was originally inhabited by people, but is now uninhabited. However, in recent years, due to tourism development, a company from Ishigaki Island commissioned by Taketomi Town has been planning and running landing tours and various events. As a result, it is not possible to land on Kayama Island on your own, and you must join a tour. The charms of Kayama Island are 1. More than 500 rabbits live on the island. ⇒ The rabbits were once brought to the island, but they have become wild and thrived, and now you can be surrounded by rabbits that are accustomed to humans. 2. You can encounter rare Okinawan creatures. ⇒ You can observe rare plants and animals such as the nationally designated natural monument "land hermit crab," Okinawa's specialty giant coconut crab, and the hanging flower. 3. Coral reefs on a white sand beach ⇒You can relax on a private beach or snorkel to see the world-famous coral reefs of Sekisei Lagoon 4. Stargazing in a starry sky sanctuary ⇒When you stay overnight at a campsite, you can enjoy the night sky of a world-renowned starry sky sanctuary Recently, it has also been rented out for wedding events and training camps 📍Location: Obama, Taketomi-cho, Yaeyama-gun, Okinawa Prefecture 🛥️Access: Most people join a tour *Only tours organized by Sanwa Travel from Ishigaki Island allow you to land on Kayama Island #EnjoyJapan #Okinawa #Kayama Island #BeautifulBeach
