YUBU BUFFALO

If you go to Iriomote, then you will have to couple your visit with that of the small island of Yubu. The crossing is done in a very original way: in a large cart pulled by a buffalo, all in song, since your guide will take the opportunity to play his sanshin, a kind of guitar with three strings. The small flat island of Yubu has a circumference of 2.15 kilometers. The whole island has a subtropical garden with 30 varieties of hibiscus and 10 varieties of palm trees, a shell museum, a small restaurant and beaches.
