The view from the top of the hill woke us up though…
as did a refreshing swim in Funadomari Bay; water as clear as I’ve ever seen in Japan, and not at all too chilly.
After a quick dash up to the northern most tip of Rebun Island, it was back on a ferry to Wakkanai.
All in all, Rishiri and Rebun Islands were definitely worth the effort. If we’d had more time, we would have spent a little more time on Rebun Island; the cliffs to the west of the island are apparently worth the travel on gravel roads over to the western side.
