Ishigaki Island is the southernmost island in Japan’s Okinawa region. Its Kakinohama Bay has been rated as a three-star attraction by the Michelin Guide, and the coral reefs of the surrounding national marine park are world-renowned diving spots. The cruise route from Keelung to Ishigaki Island has been available in Taiwan for quite some time. With Club Med Ishigaki’s summer charter flight service, travelers can explore this small island in a more in-depth way. From now until October 27, it takes just 45 minutes to reach this diving paradise—Ishigaki Island—where white sandy beaches and clearly visible underwater coral await.
