What other travelers are saying about Ishigaki Strawberries Picking
Southernmost Japanese island next to Taiwan. Difficult to get around without a rental car. Most of the tourists are Japanese, I did not see any foreigners. A small island, shops closed early and people spoke little English.
A relaxing slice of paradise. You do need a rental car or own transport as mentioned also the speed limits are low and everyone obeys. Dozens of scenic locations on the coast. Excellent diving.
Looks like a small version of Okinawa big island. So very much developed, too much concrete, and too many tall buildings. Not a tropical paradise I had imagined. If they treated animals kindly, for a Castaway experience with beauty and nature, I would choose Taketomi. The only redeeming features here are the transport hub conveniences, and MOS Burger.
