To the right of the lighthouse is Hirakubo-zaki Beach, where you can enjoy various activities. Since it\u2019s a bit of a distance from the city center, there are few tourists, allowing you to enjoy these activities with plenty of freedom!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-8805\" src=\"https:\/\/ishigaki-pipi.com\/pipicms\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/OI001632-640x480.jpg\" alt=\"Hirakubozaki, a Tourist Attraction on Ishigaki Island\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Hirakubozaki, which offers views of the crystal-clear ocean, is also famous as a sunset spot.

At Hirakubo Beach, you can go swimming and<a href=\"https:\/\/ishigaki-pipi.com\/en\/archives\/activities\/snorkeling\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>snorkel<\/strong><\/span><\/a>You can also do that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">However, my top recommendation would have to be the paragliding experience.

You can glide over the ocean like a bird while taking in the beauty of the coral reefs.
