Situated at the southernmost tip of Kagoshima Prefecture and floating right before the eyes of Okinawa, "Yoron Island" is a stunning, coral-raised tropical island paradise surrounded by an endlessly transparent, emerald-green sea acclaimed as "Yoron Blue." The absolute highlight here is "Yurigahama," a miraculous phantom white sand bar that reveals itself from under the sea exclusively during low tides of spring tides, praised by beach lovers worldwide as the last terrestrial paradise on Earth. The island exudes a lovely exotic charm with Greek Mykonos-style chalk-white buildings lining the streets, complemented by traditional hospitality cultures like "Yoron Kenpo." Completely removed from urban noise, it is an ideal, secluded resort island to be deeply healed, embraced by wild marine energy.

Kajihiki-oka

Kajihiki-oka (Hajipikipan), spreading on a high ground at an altitude of about 60 meters, the highest in the island, almost in the center of Yoron Island, is a sacred panoramic power spot where a legend remains that in the distant mythological era, the gods of Ryukyu hooked their rudder on the coral reef when they passed by in a boat, and it uplifted to create Yoron Island. When you stand on the hill, a 360-degree large screen without any obstructions spreads out, and on a sunny day, you can overlook even the beautiful silhouettes of Okinawa Main Island and surrounding...

Kurobana Beach

Kurobana Beach, standing quietly in the northeastern part of Yoron Island, is a coastal scenic spot with a dynamic landscape where rugged, wild Ryukyu limestone rocks, carved by the rough waves of the Pacific Ocean over staggering years, and fine white sandy beaches weave alternately. This is a place of historical romance where the island's unique traditional wooden boats (Sabani) once came and went, and a somewhat nostalgic feeling drifts. The surrounding sea has very high transparency, and nature tours strolling through emerald green shallows are very popular among international tourists. In the overwhelming silence completely free from commercialization, it...
