At the southernmost point of Japan lies the coral island Hateruma<\/strong>. Hateruma Island is a peaceful, relatively Small Island with around 600 people. With an area of 12.7 km, it is excellent to explore on a bike<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Main Attractions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Nishihara <\/strong>Beach<\/strong> (\u30cb\u30b7\u6d5c) is a top attraction to Hateruma Island. It is by far my favorite of all the beaches of the Yaeyama Islands<\/strong>. Unfortunately, I don\u2019t have a waterproof camera, so I don\u2019t have a photo, but if you swim out 300 meters or so,<\/span> you will be rewarded with an absolutely fantastic snorkeling reef<\/strong>. I had never seen so many schools of fish in my life! The coral was also a marvelous vibrant blue<\/strong>, and I saw a large sea turtle<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n
