Sea turtles on Miyako IslandTour Reviews and Testimonials
shine
Experienced real catan on the white sand beach of Miyakojima! With the crystal clear ocean as a backdrop, the game of collecting trash as a team and turning it into resources was fresh and fun. The photos taken by the staff were also a great memory. It was also a great opportunity to contribute to environmental protection!
unity
Beach Sports Day at Miyakojima, the best location with white sand and emerald green sea! While having fun at all costs, there was also a trash pickup program in between, so we were able to help protect the sea where sea turtles live. The pictures taken by the staff were also a great memory!
cape (on coast)
We all picked up trash that had washed ashore on the white sand beach and realized the importance of protecting the ocean. We are happy to make even a small contribution to the creation of an environment where sea turtles can live in peace.
cape (on coast)
It was great to work with a view of the crystal clear ocean! I'm glad we were able to work together to preserve the beautiful scenery! It's nice to contribute a little bit more than just sightseeing... ♪
day of the boar in the month of January
It was a great activity that allowed us to enjoy nature while learning and team building at the same time! The idea of using the trash collected during the beach cleanup as a "resource" was unique and provided a good opportunity to raise awareness of environmental issues. Furthermore, since negotiation and cooperation with other teams are the keys to victory, there were many situations where communication skills were naturally developed, and it was fascinating to be able to work on it as if it were a game.
The beautiful scenery of Miyako Island was the backdrop, and the fact that we could not only play but also contribute to the SDGs created a special feeling. This plan was perfect for employee training, as it allowed for new discoveries and a sense of accomplishment while strengthening team bonds!

Matsumoto
The beach field day we attended in Miyakojima was the most enjoyable and good event for team bonding! The white sand beach and the blue sea in the background gave the event an extraordinary feeling, and it was truly refreshing. The competitions were all team competitions, and there was a lot of laughter and serious competition as we moved our bodies, creating many natural opportunities for communication.
I was particularly attracted by the fact that we could experience the beautiful nature of Miyako Island while feeling the beauty of nature in the area, and I felt that the experience was worth more than sightseeing. The program was perfect for a company trip or a group trip, and all participants were able to share pleasant memories. I would definitely participate again if the opportunity arises!

loss of Miyakojima Island
It was a fulfilling experience that included a game element, but also allowed us to learn a lot. The beach cleanup, which included not only classroom lectures but also an actual trip to the beach, provided an opportunity for participants to view environmental issues as their own personal concerns while enjoying the beautiful scenery.
It was also nice to feel a sense of hope that the clarity of the ocean and the abundance of nature on the island could be protected with just a few actions. I think this plan is perfect for a company that wants to spend meaningful time, not just a fun trip for fun.

We used this hotel for a company trip.
It was great to have the opportunity to team up with other departments that don't often have the chance to interact with each other, and for everyone to enjoy themselves as a team!
It was also a very meaningful time for us because it was also a training session, so the content of the event involved the SDGs.
