Miyakejima is a volcanic island about 180 km south of Tokyo. The landscape created by its volcanic activity is unique, and visitors say it feels like they're on another planet. On clear days, the sunsets and moon are beautiful, and the starry sky you can see is on par with what you'd see in a planetarium.
Dolphin swimming will take place on a neighboring island. The island is almost circular with no complicated inlets, so if you can go around the island (this may not be possible depending on the weather), there is a very high chance of encountering an Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin.
Enjoy the excitement of wild dolphins approaching you. You may even be
able to make eye contact with each other.
The main way to get to Miyakejima is by large ferry. It departs from Takeshiba
Pier in Tokyo (the nearest station is JR Hamamatsucho Station) every day
at 22:30. For example, on the weekend, you can take the ferry on Friday
night and arrive on the island the next morning. (If you request early
check-in with your accommodation, they will pick you up even if you arrive
at 5am, so you can get plenty of rest before your activities.) On the following
Sunday, after enjoying your activities in the morning, you can take the
13:40 ferry and arrive at Takeshiba Pier in Tokyo at 19:45 or 20:40.(Departure
times may change in the event of bad weather)
