\nCreatures you can encounter<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

sea turtle<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

\"Sea<\/p>\n

Miyako Island isIt boasts one of the highest rates of sea turtle encounters in the world!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Especially during the summer season, sea turtles come to the waters of Miyakojima to breed and lay eggs, so chances of seeing them increase during the summer season!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

However, sea turtle activity and emergence is also affected by weather, ocean conditions, and tides, so it is not always possible to be sure of seeing turtles.<\/p>\n
