What is Gunkan Iwa?

Located in the eastern part of the island, this large rock can be seen from the observation platform on the Sanninu platform.

It is known along with Tachigami Rock.

It was named "Gunkan Iwa" (meaning "warship rock") because the sight of the waves splashing against the rock looks like a warship sailing on the rough sea.

How to play Gunkan Iwa

Gunkan Iwa can be viewed from the Sanninu-dai Observatory.

From the observatory, you can see the beautiful sea, the sun, and the horizon of Yonaguni Island.

Especially if you visit in the evening, you can experience the slowest night in Japan. You can watch the sunset slowly sink into the horizon and enjoy the darkening sky and its purple hues.
