The "Yonaha Maehama Yashi Grove" is a place where you can see a rare endemic species, the Yonaha Maehama Yashi, which only grows in certain parts of Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Island. It is located in the northwest part of Ishigaki Island, close to the popular beach "Yonaha Maehama Beach," making it a recommended spot to visit. The vast grove is a sight to behold, and it's worth incorporating into your travel itinerary to experience the majestic natural beauty of Ishigaki Island beyond its famous beaches. However, please note that the grove is only accessible by foot, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes.
