As perceived by the local staff
The "Authentic" Charm of Miyako Island

From here on, I’ll be sharing my experiences as someone who has actually visited Miyako Island many timesThe Appeal That Only Local Staff Could SenseWe’ll share this with you in honest words.

Discover the "real Miyako Island"—the one that photos and statistics can’t fully capture—and let your excitement for the trip grow!

The photo wasn't a lie.
"Miyako Blue" is truly amazing in person

To be honest, before the trip, I was a little skeptical, thinking, “It’s probably just a photoshopped picture.” But the moment I actually saw the ocean, that thought vanished.

Even in water so shallow you can touch the bottom, layers upon layers of blue gradients spread out.The scene was the very embodiment of "Miyako Blue." I was so captivated that I just stood there gazing at it before I even thought to raise my camera.

While I was there, I realized once again that the sea remains clear all year round precisely because there are no large rivers.

"Moved by Yaeyama, the "Mythical Continent"
An Underwater World to Last a Lifetime

The staff all agree that “if you come to Miyako Island, you absolutely must experience” the vast coral reefs stretching out offshore.Yabiji.Snorkeling there.

When you head out to sea by boat and look down into the water, colorful corals and tropical fish fill your entire field of vision—it’s just like being inside a natural aquarium. It’s a different experience from looking at the ocean from the beach,A deeply moving experience on a grand scaleis waiting for you.

Even if you're not a strong swimmer, I was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind on the tour thanks to the life jackets and the guide's support.

The scenic drive was even better than I imagined
Crossing the bridge was the best part.

Although it’s not often talked about, the staff’s top pick isThe Pleasure of Driving Around the IslandIt is.

Crossing the 3.5-kilometer-long Irabu Bridge is a truly special experience. As you drive along the bridge stretching straight ahead, with the "Miyako Blue" sea spreading out on both sides, the excitement of your trip reaches its peak. That feeling—where the “travel time” between attractions becomes a sightseeing experience in itself—is something you can only experience when you’re actually there.

Rent a car and stop wherever you like along the coast—that kind of carefree lifestyle is perfect for Miyako Island.

It hasn't become too touristy
I was soothed by the laid-back island pace.

Miyako Island’s appeal isn’t limited to its breathtaking scenery. What the staff found most bittersweet as they were leaving was,The laid-back atmosphere that pervades the entire islandThat was it.

There are still many areas that haven’t been overrun by tourism, where you can slurp down Miyako soba at a local diner or find comfort in casual conversations with the islanders. I feel that this "island time"—which lets you forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life—is precisely why people keep coming back.
