#kohama

Kohama island 小浜島 is a small island between Ishigaki 石垣暇 and Iriomote 西表島. There is not much to see there except a great 360° view of the Yaeyama archipelago. Most other small islands there like Taketomi 竹富島　and Kurojima 黒島 are flat like a pancake, so the view is quite exceptionel. It also means that cycling is not as quite as pleaseant  as on those flat ones. Anyway, on the way to the top of the observation point you have to cross a small jungle-like forest which is inhabited by giant fruit bats. 大蝙蝠 Horses are just meandering around, too and the small shop at the beach facing Iriomote was quite unique.
