The island will be rented exclusively to one group per day from 28 April. Departing from Uno Port in Tamano, Okayama, groups of between four and 80 people can take a 30-minute boat trip to Tatebajima island, which is affectionately called “Kujira-Jima,” meaning Whale Island, because of its shape. It has a circumference of about 2 km, and once you’re there, you can enjoy camping, barbecuing and other activities, or  you could even hold a party or wedding there.

The fee per adult per night is 21,600 yen (($202) including camping facilities and transport to and from Uno Port. If there is no booking the following night, it is possible to stay an extra night for 10,800 yen ($101). Taking a day trip without staying overnight is also an option for 10,800 yen ($101). If you are planning to hold an event without staying over, around 150 people are permitted to attend.

You can walk around the island in about 30 minutes, and there is a main beach and several other private beaches there. A power generator, a cooking space and hot showers are also available, and there are facilities to have barbecues. If you like to get active, stand-up paddle boarding and kayaking are two activities on offer.
