Join a guided Yambaru night walk
Higashi and northern Okinawa, Japan

A guided evening walk reveals a different side of Yambaru’s forest. The focus is on nocturnal wildlife and the habits of the creatures that inhabit this protected northern landscape, with a local guide helping you notice what daylight visitors miss. Sightings depend on conditions, so approach it as a nature walk rather than a guaranteed animal encounter. Book ahead, request English guidance when needed and follow the operator’s clothing and access advice.
