    Not enough to see the whole mangrove.

    Original Text

    I went up to the nearby observatory to overlook the mangroves on the Ishinagata coast. I got the impression that the maintenance couldn't keep up because it felt a little rough, probably because there weren't many visitors. Grace, it was too low to look over the coast and the visibility was blocked by the tree 々.

    A panoramic view of the mangrove forest

    Original Text

    Located near the Ishinagata coast, you can overlook the mangrove forest. There is about 10 parking lots, but the observatory is not very large, and it may be a little awkward if there are couples (laughs)

    to see the mangroves?

    Original Text

    Is it to see the mangroves of Ishinagata? If you want to see the sea and islands, it is cleaner from the road running on the hill. By the way, if you want to see the mangroves, you can really see it when you get off the embankment next to the parking lot to the coast. It is much closer to Iriomote and so on.

    A quiet observatory

    Original Text

    There is a parking space of about 10 at the end of the road where you can't pass each other, and there is a staircase quietly up to the observatory beside it. 6 It seems that it was completed about a year ago, but the vegetation is already overgrown, the view is not very good, and the mangrove in front of me is not very clear from above.

    Note that you can't see the sea or the island.

    Original Text

    It is a small observatory. There is a certain amount of space to rest if you climb the stairs a little. Please note that the trees are overgrown and you cannot see the scenery. It looks like an observatory to see mangroves.
