Speaking of the Transportation in Ishigaki Island,  It Must Be “Gogoro.”

This time, we would like to introduce some MUST VISIT photogenic spots by a rental smart electric scooter Gogoro!

① Ishigaki Port Ritoh Terminal

You won’t ignore the graffiti when it comes to photogenic spots!

Things with wings on the wall are now famous〜♪

Buuut the graffiti in Ishigaki Port Ritoh Terminal is different.

The Graffiti is not on the wall but on the ground! 

→The wings of Spilornis is the motif of this pattern.

Oh! It looks 3-dimensional! It seems that we can fly high to the sky of Ishigaki Island by Gogoro〜☆

（※It actually can’t fly, please notice about that.）

No matter you are going to Taketomi Island ＆ Iriomote Island or not, it’s free to take pictures here for everyone, so you are welcome to come here!

② Guesthouse Blue Tomowru 

Here is the graffiti of the guesthouse.

This wall is also named “Idea Leuconoe, the biggest butterfly in Japan.”

Ms. Tomori Daiti, the owner of this guesthouse with a cute smile ♪

→Ms. Tomori said that she loves Idea Leuconoe so much（Photo・Right）。

A cafe with Take-out only service is also established together with the guesthouse

Do you notice that the patterns of Idea Leuconoe looks like Yaeyama Islands (a generic term for isolated islands including Ishigaki Island) 〜?

③ Island Vegetable CAFE Re:Hellow BEACH

You can easily go to a fashionable cafe by Gogoro when you are starving!

What’s more, compare to normal vehicle, it’s much more easier to park Gogoro. 

→Yeah! It’s noon! Foremost, a same pose as the signboard!

！！！！！It’s Time for Lunch！！！！！

→Meal’s Name：Salmon Lomi Lomi Salad Rice

Since we came to “a Cafe where you can go into the sea directly”, we swung inside the hammock, overlook the ocean, and had a leisurely time here〜♡
