A wonderful spot where you meet Ishigaki's famous pineapple queen. She will serve you two variations of pineapples, fresh cut from her farm. These pineapples represent the verities that can be found here on Ishigaki. You can take them to go, or you can eat them there while enjoying the nice view of the ocean.

A breathtaking view of what I believe is the most beautiful lighthouse. the waves rash against the rock formations - symbolizing the creation of this magnificent sight. If you listen closely to the sounds of the waves and wind, there's a story that's deeply rooted in the history of Ishigaki here.
