    The reason why the sunsets seen on Kohama Island are among the most beautiful in Japan is that the sky over Kohama Island is less affected by the jet stream and there is less air resistance, so the sun looks very beautiful. Another reason is that there are few man-made structures such as buildings and large structures, and very few cars driving by, so there is less dust and dirt in the air, and the air is clearer, allowing you to see farther and clearer. On Kohama Island, where the weather can change easily, a sudden squall may be followed by a sudden clearing of the clouds and a beautiful sunset that makes the rain seem like a lie.

    It’s a good value. I really enjoyed watching the sunset from the water on a SUP, and I really appreciated that the shuttle service and photo service were included—I didn’t have to bring anything with me. However, if I had to nitpick, the wind was a bit strong at times while I was on the SUP, and there were moments when I felt like I was about to be swept away, so I had to use quite a bit of energy to keep my balance. Overall, I’m satisfied with the service.

The view of the sea around Kohama Island from our private boat was picture-perfect no matter where you looked♪ We set off at a leisurely pace in the afternoon and took tons of super stylish photos with my friends—I’m totally satisfied☆ You can take as many photos as you want from any angle you like without worrying about others around you, so I definitely recommend this for a girls’ trip! I made so many amazing memories!

    The facilities were great. Since we had the boat chartered exclusively for the afternoon, it was easy to coordinate our plans with our group. It was easy to participate even as a day trip from Ishigaki Island, and we were able to spend a relaxing time enjoying the sea breeze. The arrangements were hassle-free, making it an excellent leisure activity.

    Everything went smoothly. Since we chartered the boat for the afternoon, it was easy to plan our schedule, and we were able to enjoy the ocean efficiently with just our group. Even as day-trippers from Ishigaki Island, the travel was stress-free, and making the arrangements was very easy. We’ll definitely use this service again.

    That was the right choice. Renting a private boat in the afternoon so we could hang out with just our group without worrying about anyone else—Taipa is the best. The ocean was super clear, too—absolutely nothing to complain about. If I had to nitpick, though, I wish we’d had a little more time.
