Yae Kanze is located in the north of Miyako Island, about 5-22 kilometers north of Ikema Island. It is a huge coral reef group about 17 kilometers from north to south and about 6.5 kilometers from east to west. Yae Ganze is usually located under the seabed, but it will appear on the sea surface when the tide is high, especially in spring and summer, when the tide is low, you will see several island-like coral reefs scattered on the sea surface. This attracted the arrival of countless tourists from home and abroad, and Yae Kanase was called the "Illusory Continent". A traditional event called "Sanitu" is held on March 3 in the old calendar when the tidal range is high throughout the year. In recent years, it has been held under the name of "Yae Mise Matsuri", attracting many tourists.

It's a dreamlike world, with endless coral reefs and tropical fish. Whether deep or shallow or snorkeling, it makes you feel drunk.
Located off the northeast coast of Ikema Island, there are over 100 coral reefs, with eight large tidal flats, hence the name Yabiji. The total area is comparable in size to Miyako Island, and in 2013 it was designated a natural monument. The tide level drops from spring to summer, and the lowest tide occurs on March 3rd of the lunar calendar, when the coral reefs appear like land, hence the name "Phantom Continent."
Super beautiful snorkeling, the underwater corals are well preserved, the Japanese did a really good job, very good, if you have enough budget, you must come here for a free trip, it is no worse than the islands in Southeast Asia, it is a very niche island route, I highly recommend everyone to come and play, the air tickets from HK are cheap, you need to transfer in Okinawa, it is said that it used to belong to China, the sea turtles photographed are also super nice, but I am pulling 💩.
Yibiji is located in the north of Miyagi Island. It's a huge coral reef group. It's a spectacular place. The sea water here is not polluted. It's especially suitable for snorkeling.
The Octopus Dry Sete is on the bottom of the sea. It appears on the sea when the tide is ebbing. The coral on the sea floor is very beautiful. It attracts many people to watch during the low tide in spring and summer.
Bazhong Dry Sete is a beautiful world park with many interesting specimens. There are also abundant tropical fish resources and a large number of coral reefs.
