PRICIA RESORT YORON - Only in winter on the Island of Yoron

Yoron Island
is the southernmost of the Amami

Archipelago, and is a special, breathtaking destination. By day, the sea is a crystal-clear blue known as "Yoron Blue," and by night, the sky is filled with twinkling stars.

Winter in Yoron is a special season. It is quieter than summer, the seawater becomes clearer and the "Yoron Blue" deepens. Wrapped in soft sunlight and the warmth of the islanders, your tensions fade away.

The wind is gentle, the locals are kind, and the island's time passes slowly. "Winter Yoron" is a special opportunity you cant find elsewhere.
