We've bundled the island's most captivating charms into one unforgettable tour. Capture once-in-a-lifetime photos on Phantom Island, which only reveals itself at low tide, and then swim alongside colorful tropical fish in the vibrant underwater world. In the afternoon, travel to Taketomi Island, where time seems to stand still, and experience true relaxation while soaking in the old Okinawan atmosphere. Start your best day, a harmonious blend of active adventure and leisurely sightseeing, with WAUG.

Landing on Phantom Island: A White Flower Blooming on the Sea

Step onto Hamaji, the Phantom Island, a dazzling white sandy beach accessible only during low tide. The transparent sea stretching 360 degrees around you creates an almost surreal, dreamlike illusion. Capture your most beautiful moments with snap photos expertly taken by your guide.

Snorkeling in an Underwater Garden

The waters near Phantom Island are part of the 'Sekisei Lagoon,' Japan's largest coral reef. Enjoy a sea walk alongside charming tropical fish swimming among colorful corals. With a professional guide accompanying you, even beginners and children can safely and comfortably explore the underwater world.

A Leisurely Afternoon on Taketomi Island

After snorkeling, use your round-trip ferry ticket to travel to Taketomi Island. The tranquil scenery, with its white sandy paths, flowers blooming over stone walls, and water buffalo carts touring the village, will bring a sense of peace. Rent a bicycle and explore every corner of the island at your own pace to complete your journey.
