[2025 Ishigaki Attraction] Travel Guide for Ishigaki Yaima Village (Updated May)

I heard that many tourists stop by the "Single Mangrove in Nagura Bay". Why is this "mangrove" so popular? I asked the locals, and they said that when we say "mangrove", we mean a group of "mangrove trees" (a dense cluster), and that the sight of a single mangrove tree growing independently is rare and popular. To make it easier to understand, I also took a photo of the dense mangrove trees near the "Single Mangrove" in Nagura Bay. You can see many mangroves (mangroves) around Nagura Bay. Also, around the "Single Mangrove", you can see a phenomenon called the "green flash" just before the sun sets a few times a year😊 You can enjoy the completely different appearance depending on the tides and the time of day.

We went to #Yaima Village where you can see wild #squirrel monkeys. Inside, we could listen to folk songs and see mangroves, so it was a fulfilling experience! There was also a hands-on class that the whole family could enjoy. I was surprised at the size of the coconut crab, and the golden pupa was very beautiful. This pupa is real, so it seems to hatch every year. I was glad that I was able to see it during the pupa season! #Ishigaki Island #Solo Travel #Solo Female Traveler #Yaeyama #Yaeyama Palm #Yaeyama Palm Colony #Yaima Village #Squirrel Monkey #Free Hong Kong Air Ticket
