    I took part in the sunset canoe tour on the day I arrived in Amami. The view of the setting sun reflecting off the surface of the mangrove-lined river was absolutely beautiful, and I was able to enjoy a relaxing time. However, I was a little bothered by the bugs at dusk, so it would have been even better if there had been some information about insect repellent.

    On the day we arrived, my child and I took part in the Sunset Mangrove Canoe tour. I was worried they might be tired from the trip, but as we glided along the calm river in the canoe, my children seemed completely refreshed and were mesmerized by the sunset reflecting on the water. Since private tours are also available, we were able to spend a relaxing time just as a family, making it the perfect start to our trip to Amami Oshima.

    I took part in the tour that same afternoon after arriving in Amami by plane. The gradations of the sunset, which I admired as we paddled down the mangrove-lined river in a canoe, were truly beautiful, and they instantly washed away all my travel fatigue. Since we had the tour all to ourselves, it was wonderful to leisurely enjoy some quiet time.

    Last time I went on a daytime tour, but this time I tried a sunset canoe trip on the day I arrived. The mangroves at dusk had a quiet, mysterious beauty—quite different from the liveliness of the daytime—and the scenery was breathtaking. It was also great that we had the tour all to ourselves and could relax and enjoy it.

    Before we set off, I was really worried about whether I’d be able to paddle the canoe properly, but thanks to the guide’s patient instruction, I got the hang of it right away. The view of the mangroves bathed in the sunset was absolutely beautiful. However, the bugs were a bit of a nuisance in the evening, so it would have been perfect if we’d been given some advice on insect repellent beforehand.

    The sunset seen while canoeing was as beautiful as a painting, and I was speechless at its beauty. The reflection of the sunset on the water was so beautiful that a photograph could not fully capture its beauty. It was exciting and adventurous to be led through the mangrove forest by our guide. The sunset in the midst of nature was a healing experience that made me forget the hustle and bustle of the city. I definitely want to participate again!

    I participated in the Sunset Mangrove Canoe Tour on Amami Oshima and had an experience of a lifetime. Starting at sunset time, the tour allowed us to enjoy the fantastic view of the sky and the surface of the water turning golden. Watching the sky quietly change colors while paddling the canoe was a very peaceful and heartwarming moment.
