Early morning tour of Iriomote Island
Hello everyone!
Waking up in the morning after a day of work or school can be a bit dreary on some days.
Although it is fun to stay up late before an occasional holiday, the human body's autonomic nervous system becomes disorganized if we continue to stay up late.
It is said that when humans are exposed to sunlight, their circadian rhythm, or biological clock, is adjusted at the molecular level.
It is said that the body clock is adjusted and hormone secretion is normalized in the body.
As the term "morning activity" has become popular, many people may start running or taking a walk in the morning to get into the rhythm of the day.
But that is just idealism.
In recent years, research has shown that there are individual differences in the human life cycle, and that some people have morning brains, while others have night brains that do not get going until nighttime.
Nevertheless, in today's society, especially in Japan, both adults and students are uniformly expected to start their activities in the morning.
For night people, it is quite difficult to adjust their life rhythm to wake up in the morning.
Therefore, I would like to recommend a trip to Iriomote Island!
Why don't you enjoy and rearrange your life rhythm in the extraordinary environment of a tropical trip?
Iriomote Island is dotted with many spectacular spots where we can watch the beautiful sunrise that rearranges our body clocks and gives us positive effects.
In addition, Iriomote Island offers a unique early morning activity experience, which is ideal for getting in shape by soaking up the sun's rays.
Now, let's take a look at such morning tours of Iriomote Island!
Four superb activities to enjoy early in the morning
Exhilarating SUP at sunrise!
SUP" is a hot new activity that has been gaining attention around the world in recent years!
SUP is an abbreviation of the first three letters of Stand Up Paddle Surfing, a new type of activity that involves paddling on a board through the water with a paddle.
This time, we will introduce early morning SUP, which you can experience while feeling the morning of Iriomote Island.
Many people may have the impression that marine activities are something to be done in the daytime sunlight.
However, SUP can be done early in the morning.
In fact, it may be no exaggeration to say that early morning is the true essence of SUP!
SUP is an activity that originated in Hawaii, but it has gained attention mainly in Western countries and is now popular among many people around the world.
The reason why it became popular is because it is simple and familiar, paddling in the ocean on a board, yet provides a very high fitness effect.
The boards used for SUP are similar to surfboards, but many are larger and more stable.
Therefore, it can be enjoyed by men and women of all ages, from those who are not confident in their sense of balance or do not have much experience in marine activities to the elderly with weak legs and backs.
Despite its ease of use, it is highly effective in efficiently strengthening the core, and there are stories of athletes incorporating it into their off-season training.
Because of these many advantages, SUP became popular among celebrities in Europe and the United States, and from there it quickly spread throughout the world.
In addition, early morning SUP on Iriomote Island allows you to listen to the chirping of birds and the sound of waves while basking in the tropical morning sun in the silence of the island not yet fully awakened.
Breathing in the clear morning air and basking in the morning glow that warms your body is truly an exquisite experience.
It will surely heal your tired mind of daily life.
Stimulating the core, which cannot be trained in everyday life, and exposure to the strong morning sun has a great relaxation effect.
It will help to firmly restore the body clock, which has been disrupted.
Why don't you try morning activities with new sensation activities you can experience in Iriomote Island?
Sunrise canoeing with a pleasant morning sunrise
If you want to be rocked by pleasant waves in the morning as well as SUP, how about sunrise canoeing?
Here, too, you can get into a canoe early in the morning when it is a little chilly, paddle out to the water and enjoy the sound of the water as you cruise along, and soon you will be bathed in the pleasant morning sun.
Although canoeing may sound difficult, canoes used for the activity are extremely stable.
Even those who have no experience in canoeing can easily maneuver the canoe, and since it can accommodate two people, it has the advantage of being very suitable for trips with children.
This activity is also highly recommended for women who are not comfortable with their makeup falling off because there is little risk of getting wet.
We invite you to experience canoe cruising to enjoy the best mornings in Iriomote Island!
Stress-free retreat tours in the great outdoors
What a great opportunity to experience the retreats that have been a hot topic in the U.S. on Iriomote Island!
But have you ever heard of a retreat?
Perhaps many of you are not yet familiar with it.
In a word, a retreat is almost synonymous with hiking.
The word "retreat" can be directly translated to mean "retreat, retreat, evacuation," etc.
Why does an outdoor activity that takes place outdoors have a backward-looking name? You may be wondering why an outdoor activity that takes place outdoors has a backward-looking name.
A more accurate translation of the connotation of this retreat would be "an escape, retreat, or refuge from modern society and daily life.
In today's society, people are often tired of socializing and being socially awkward.
The meaning behind the name "retreat" is that hiking in nature allows people to escape from the daily grind for a short time and have some time for themselves to relax.
If taken correctly, one might say that it is a more modern version of the old-fashioned game of hiking.
Now, since the purpose of such a retreat is spiritual relaxation, it is not just a hike, but a visit to a natural environment where the mind is healed.
In this respect, the environment of Iriomote Island is truly optimal!
The relaxation effect of worshipping the beautiful sunrise, walking around feeling like one of the creatures of Iriomote Island, and seeing the beautiful nature is truly exquisite.
Iriomote Island is a space physically and mentally detached from your normal life, so why don't you get away from the stressful environment and experience the benefits of a retreat?
Phantom overnight flower "Sagaribana" early morning SUP/canoe tour

This is an Okinawan tradition that blooms in the early summer season around the end of the rainy season, with bright white, red, and pink petals hanging down as its name suggests.
This sagaribana is also known as an overnight flower, and has the very fleeting nature of blooming at night and falling by morning.
Because of its sweet and fragrant scent, the sagaribana is loved by many people, and some even go out of their way to visit in the early summer season to see the flowers.
The most beautiful time to see the sagaribana is late at night when it is in full bloom and early in the morning when its flowers are fleetingly falling.
