Caving & Canyoning & Barasu Island Snorkeling set tour
An Acquisitive Tour!
Experience three fun activities in one day: Jungle, River, and Sea.
-
Morning: Caving with flashlights in mystical limestone caves, followed by refreshing Canyoning in the jungle streams.
-
Afternoon: Boat ride to Barasu Island for snorkeling.

Barasu Island: A tiny, uninhabited island made entirely of coral splinters brought together by the tide. You’ll see stunning coral gardens and vibrant tropical fish.
Why we recommend this: This is the “Best of Iriomote” in 8 hours. Perfect for travelers who want to maximize their experience!
Caving takes about within one hour.
Going through untouched three caves small, medium, and large.
You can enjoy the world of the impracticalness.
Go to Canyoning !!
Canyoning is very fun. Walking, Swimming, and Jumping into super clear water.
You can try to jump into clear water from some rocks.
The highest jump is about 4m. Come to try !
Go to Boat Snorkeling !!
You will see very beautiful Iriomote Island’s emerald sea and coral. You can swim with tropical fish and sometimes turtle.
Recent year, the Barasu Island has been very small, so we could just stop by there and taking photo for about 5-10minutes. We will snorkel 2 beautiful spots about 40 minutes each spot.
Attention!!
