  • The story

Native to Itoman, “Sabani” has been the boat of Okinawan fishermen since the Ryukyu Kingdom period. It is a small vessel moving on a combination of sail and paddles.
Used for fishing and transportation, Sabani are designed to glide on Okinawa’s shallowest reef flats, and also to cut through the strong waves of the open seas between islands. Rapid, silent, elegant, each Sabani boat is a testimony to Okinawan traditional craftmanship.
Come and ride with us for an unforgettable experience on Okinawa’s tropical seas and discover the unique Uminchu culture of Itoman, the “City of the Fishermen”.
