Unlike most of the islands in Okinawa, the Kume Islands were created by volcanic activity. As a result the island has some very interesting rock formations. The Tatami Ishi Rocks came about from eons of waves wearing some of these volcanic rocks flat. Japanese people have named them after their traditional flooring, because they say the rocks resemble it.
A very interesting hermit crab I came across. The round thing on the left part of its shell appears to a barnacle. When I started messing around with this hermit crab, the barnacle started spewing the pink goo that you can see in the picture.
