The Explanations of the Tour

~The One Rank Higher Experiences in the Mangrove Canoeing~

The Mangrove Native Forest, recently recognized as one of the best tourist spots

o tour the forest and the sea early in the morning, in the daytime or in the evening.

Escorted by our exclusive guide, enjoyable in absolute relief!

A slow morning calm canoeing in the monagroves

The morning blur with the voices and breath of the Gods into your ears.
The forests, the ocean and the sky in Amami begin to stir immediately at the crack of dawn!

Meanwhile, the mangrove native forests that connect lives are the paradises for creatures!
In early morning, the hungry wild birds and fishes get active in their movements.

Slowly rises the sun, and the great nature in Amami wakes up.

The blissful minutes for avoiding the crowded daytime!
Let’s feel the fresh air and the sun rise in Amami all across the body, which is, in English,
“The early bird catches the worm.”

The Mangrove Jungle Adventure

The tour at the hide tide is a piece of recommendation for those who would like to enjoy canoeing fully.

In the time zone of the high tide,
do appear the waterways where the streams of water flow in and into the back of the jungle.

What a real jungle cruise
it is to go through on the lanes in the tunnels made of trees!

Going around the mangrove native forest.
The breath-taking site of a small stream flowing into a huge river!

Welcome to the jungle adventures that can be experienced only at the high tide!

The observation of living animals on the mangrove tidelands

The tidelands are recommended to look at and touch, and observe up close.

It is good to land on the tidelands at a low tide, when water flows less.
A lot of things that have scissors are moving at the feet.

As we approach them, they are found to be some kind of crabs named Shiomaneki,
moving their scissors as if to welcome us.

And the others are prawns and gobies.
You will be impressed to meet many not-commonly-seen tiny living animals.

(※The high tide in winter is advisable.)

The Dingy Evening Calm Mangrove Canoeing Tour

Let’s finish a day the Sun Set Canoeing Tour.

The mangrove water lanes dyed in the sunset
when the day-time noises calmed down unimaginably.

The tints of visibility gradually turn from colors to black and white.
The time zone whose colors turn from white to black is most sacred in Amami.

The sound of YOUR oars is all that can be heard
when the moon whispers and when the stars blink.

The hallucination as if to be in a different world,
when your senses of sight and hearing are sharpened in this sacred time,
will carry your existence in Amami into the hands of Gods,
when the pitch-black darkness in Amami overlays the surroundings.

Let’s immerse yourselves in traveling nostalgia in all the colors and sounds of the ocean,
of the sky and of the forests!
