Beaches · Stand-Up Paddleboarding · Islands

Taketomicho Iriomote-Jima stands as the second largest island in Okinawa. Around 90% of the island remains covered in thick jungle and sprawling mangrove swamps, making it a wild place to go for an adventure or to spot local wildlife, such as the critically endangered Iriomote cat, found nowhere else but on the island. Tourism on Taketomicho Iriomote-Jima forms the basis of the local economy, along with the agricultural industry, which exports pineapples, mangoes, and cultured pearls, with trips to see the plantations and pearl farms representing highlights of Taketomicho Iriomote-Jima holidays.
