of mangrove forests by SUP (stand-up paddle boat), a very popular water sport in which you stand on a surfboard and paddle, is an experience that can be found only in Iriomote Island.<br \/>\nUnlike SUP, where you are standing still, the canoeing is close to the surface of the water, and you are moving along the river surrounded by mangrove forests, which will surely enhance your tropical experience.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\"

completely sink into the sea surface even at high tide.<br \/>\nSnorkeling at Barras Island is a spectacular experience, as you can see the crystal clear water while floating on the emerald green surface of the ocean.<br \/>\nSunlight pours into the underwater space where coral reefs and tropical fish interweave, and visitors can enjoy the luxury of leisurely gazing at the colorful, art-like
