Yakushima & Tanegashima - A heartwarming adventure of nature and science

Full

6 nights and 7 days - August 1st (Friday) to August 7th (Thursday), 2025

The Concept of This Program

This is a 7-day adventure program that takes you around Yakushima and Tanegashima by plane and ferry.
On Yakushima, Japan's first World Heritage Site, participants will experience the natural beauty of the sea, mountains, and rivers, and experience the importance of life with all five senses, including watching sea turtles lay their eggs. On Tanegashima, participants will spend time at the JAXA Space Center, turning their attention to space and science. This adventure camp will ignite the curiosity and investigative spirit that lies dormant in children's hearts as they move back and forth between nature and science.

Key Features

ウミガメ産卵の観察

期間中がシーズン最盛期のウミガメの産卵。島南西部に宿泊する最初の3日間、地元のガイドさんに知る人ぞ知る観察スポットに連れて行ってもらいます。ウミガメの産卵と同時に、赤ちゃんカメの孵化も見られるかも!?

JAXA宇宙センター見学

日本の宇宙プロジェクトの重要な役割を担う種子島宇宙センターは、日本最大のロケット発射場です。実際にセンター内を見学し宇宙規模のスケールに触れる貴重な機会です。

屋久杉トレッキング

屋久島の魅力はなんといっても山です。九州地方で最も高い標高1,936mの宮之浦岳をはじめ、標高1,000mを超える山々が連座しており、標高によって亜熱帯気候から亜寒帯気候まで日本の気候が垂直的に分布している自然環境が特徴です。そんな屋久島の大自然を自分の足で歩き感じる時間をたっぷり確保します。

地元の子どもたちと共同生活

今回のプログラムは地元屋久島で自然教育活動を行っているNPO HUB & LABOとの共催企画のため、同日程で地元の子どもたちも参加し、交流や友情を深めならかけがえの無い思い出を作ります。

本物の自然を心に刻む

海・森・川・動植物など、日本の生態系を凝縮したような島、それが屋久島です。世界自然遺産の土地に足を踏み入れ、自然の偉大さ、儚さを感じながら、環境問題にも目を向け、今後の世界で自分たちにできることを考えます。

7日間親元から離れる自立体験

普段の生活の中で1週間親元を離れる経験はなかなかありません。途中で困難にぶつかることも、家に帰りたくなる瞬間もあるかもしれません。楽しいことばかりではない旅を通じて、仲間と助け合い、自身と向き合い、強くなる経験を積む貴重な時間です。
