A spectacular view of a fantastic island made of coral and

Impressive snorkeling experience at one of the largest coral reefs in Japan

🍽️Michelin-Starred Chef × Ishigaki Island’s Restaurant Closest to the Ocean🍽️

After the tour, we went to the restaurant on Ishigaki Island that’s closest to the ocean, “OceanFront Grill St. ELMO ISHIGAKI"."

This meal, prepared by a Michelin-starred chef, features half a lobster and Ishigaki beef (sirloin or filet), served with an appetizer, bisque soup, and a choice of rice or bread.

We’ll give priority seating to the terrace tables with a view of the sunset. You’re welcome to come as you are after the tour. Please make your own way to the restaurant.
