Mangrove Kayak & Kura Waterfall & Boat Snorkeling

🛶 The Ultimate Iriomote Duo: Jungle Kayak & Coral Snorkel

Duration: Full Day / Half-Day Combo | Locations: Kura River & Barasu Island, Boat Snorkeling

Experience the two faces of Iriomote: the deep, subtropical “Green” jungle and the vibrant, turquoise “Blue” ocean.

Part 1: Into the Jungle (Kura Waterfall)

Mangrove Kayaking: A peaceful 20-minute paddle through the winding Kura River. Surround yourself with the sounds of rare birds and the unique sight of mangrove roots.
Jungle Trek: A light hike upstream into “untouchable” nature to reach the hidden Kura Waterfall.
The Vibe: Ancient, quiet, and deeply refreshing.

Part 2: Into the Blue (Barasu Island & Snorkeling)

Boat Snorkeling: We take you to two prime snorkeling spots to see flourishing coral gardens and schools of tropical fish.
Barasu Island Visit: Step onto a “miracle” island made entirely of white coral fragments.
- Note: This tiny island is shaped by the tides. At high tide, it nearly disappears, making your visit feel like a truly exclusive experience!
The Vibe: Bright, colorful, and perfect for photography.
