All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

Thank you for your prompt assistance. I was very surprised to hear that the guides were around the same age as me, as they seemed so calm. I learned a lot from the diverse stories about local wildlife, plants, and nearby islands that I could only hear on-site. The plan allowed us to truly experience the mangroves, limestone caves, and coral firsthand, so our entire group was very satisfied and had a great time. I want to make next year's family trip to Iriomote Island.

急遽お世話になりました。
ガイドの皆様が落ち着いていらしたので、同い年ぐらいだと聞いて非常に驚きました。
現地でしか聞けない話や動物、植物、近隣諸島の話など多種多様の話にとても勉強になりました。
マングローブも鍾乳洞もサンゴも全て肌で実感できるプランだったのでサークル一同大満足で楽しませていただきました。来年の家族旅行は西表島にしたいです。

On my first trip to Iriomote Island, and since it was a day trip, I really wanted to visit as many places as possible in one day! I thought this tour was perfect for me.

During the mangrove tour, I was a bit anxious about trying SUP for the first time, but it was actually quite easy to control, and I had a blast!

The subsequent exploration of the limestone cave was not what I expected; I thought there would be well-maintained paths, but it felt like we were truly navigating through a natural cave. It was the most adventurous part of the day!

The last stop at Barasu Island was just as amazing as I had heard, with beautiful coral. It was an incredible day filled with surprises and emotions.

I think anyone who, like me, wants to enjoy Iriomote Island to the fullest will be satisfied.

初めての西表島旅行、しかも日帰りだったので、どうしても1日でたくさんの場所を回りたい！っという私にぴったりのツアーだと思い参加しました。
マングローブのツアーでは、初めてのSUPで少し不安だったのですが、コントロールも全然難しくなく思いっきり楽しめました！
その後の鍾乳洞探検は、てっきり整備された道が通っていると思っていたのですが、本当に自然のままの鍾乳洞を突破していくという感じで、1日の中で1番アドベンチャー感のあるツアーでした！
最後に行ったバラス島も噂通りのサンゴの島で、驚きで感動の1日ツアーでした。
私のように欲張りに西表島を楽しんでみたい方は満足できると思います。

Thank you so much for accommodating our last-minute reservation! The ocean was incredibly beautiful, and we saw so many fish we had never seen before! During the tour, I was the most excited and may have caused some trouble, but you always greeted us with a smile! Thank you for your support with the sudden booking!

前日に急遽、予約したのに私たちのわがままに対応して頂いて本当にありがとうございました！
海がとにかく綺麗で見たことのない魚がいっぱい見れました！
ツアー中も1番はしゃいでしまって迷惑掛けっぱなしにも関わらず、常に笑顔で接してくださいました！
急な予約でご対応していただきありがとうございました！

I joined a tour because I really wanted to see the starry sky on Iriomote Island. I had heard that the weather forecast on the island was unreliable, so I was worried about whether we would actually be able to see the stars. However, on the night of the tour, the clouds cleared astonishingly, and we were able to see a truly star-filled sky. The location we were taken to was also amazing, allowing us to enjoy a 360° view, like a natural planetarium. This is definitely a recommended tour that will leave you in awe.

西表島の星空がどうしても見たくてツアーに参加しました。
天気予報があてにならない島だと聞いていたのでちゃんと星が見えるかどうか心配だったのですが、ツアー当日の夜は驚くほど雲が晴れ、文字通りの満点の星空を見ることができました。
案内された場所も最高で、360°、まさしく天然のプラネタリウムを満喫できました。
感動間違いなしのオススメのツアーです

It had been forecasted to rain all day, but I was relieved when it turned into a beautiful sunny day! It was the most beautiful sea I have ever seen! I was a bit anxious about my first snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding experience, but since it was a small group, I was able to enjoy it comfortably with constant support. I had a great time relaxing and enjoying the great nature of Ishigaki Island for the whole day. Thank you very much.

ずっと雨予報だったのですが、当日は快晴に変わりホッとしました！
今まで見てきた中で1番綺麗な海でした！
人生初めてのシュノーケリングにスタンドアップパドル体験で不安でしたが少人数での開催でずっと付き添って頂けたので安心して楽しむ事ができました。
1日のんびり石垣島の大自然を満喫する事ができて楽しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

I participated in a sunset kayak tour with my daughter. It was my first time kayaking, and since I can't swim, I was very anxious. However, the staff provided thorough explanations and accompanied us, which made me feel at ease. They offered to take pictures of the sunset, and they took some with my smartphone. We were able to capture a photo of the sunset with the Irabu Bridge, creating a lovely memory for the two of us. The view from under the bridge was absolutely stunning. If I have the chance, I would love to participate again.

私は娘と2人でサンセットカヤックに参加しました。カヤックに乗るのははじめてで、泳げない私はとても不安でした。でも、スタッフの方が丁寧に説明してくれて、2人同行してくれたので、安心して行く事が出来ました。夕日の写真を「撮りましょうか？」と声をかけて下さって、私のスマホで撮影してくれました。伊良部大橋と夕日が一枚の写真に収まり、2人の記念写真が撮れました。橋の下からみえる光景はとても素晴らしいものでした。機会があれば、また参加したいです。

整個活動體驗都非常好。工作人員熱心和專業的解說，令到整個活動都成為十分合適一家大小參與的活動。比較意想不到的是，以為只會跟一條海豚玩耍，原來會有兩條輪流。工作人員簡單英語的表達，令不懂日語的旅客都都明白活動要求和指令。場內設施也很齊備，只是更衣室、淋浴間和洗手間比較小，活動過後雲要等一下才可以用，但毛巾供應充足。活動期間也有專業攝影師幫忙影相，活動後也可以讓旅客自由決定購買與否，照片會錢也很相宜。這個活動十分推介為親子遊的活動

Weather: Sunny
Guide: A calm person. They talked a lot to ensure it wasn't difficult. They skillfully supported my friend who was anxious about the climb and helped us well. They treated us to miso soup for lunch and listened to our requests at the end.
Contact: I received updates from Veltra regularly.

天候：晴れ
ガイド：落ち着いた方。沢山お話をしていただきつらくならないように
　　　　登山に不安のある友人を上手にサポートしていただき
　　　　上手に助けてくれ
　　　　昼食にお味噌汁をご馳走していただき
　　　　最後にわがままを聞いてくれました
連絡：ベルトラから逐一連絡がきます

We were informed the day before our scheduled visit that we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to an approaching typhoon. Although we were disappointed since we had come all this way, we switched to snorkeling and participated instead.

The staff who guided us took us to hidden spots along the way, took lots of photos, and even told us about the sea turtle nesting areas, which made the time spent traveling enjoyable as well. ☆ They also took many photos during snorkeling, so we downloaded them and quickly created our own album! Our spirits were lifted! ⤴︎⤴︎

Next time, we definitely want to participate when there are no typhoon impacts.

The staff were very kind and taught us how to use the facilities, and even though it was a short time, we had a really fun experience! (The changing room in the facility was spacious, making it easy to change into wetsuits!)

Thank you very much.

私達が申し込みしていた日は台風接近の為予定していた青の洞窟には行く事が出来ないと前日にご連絡いただきました。
せっかく来たのだからと気落ちしていましたがシュノーケリングに切り替え参加させていただきました。
引率してくれたスタッフの方が途中隠れスポットに寄り沢山写真を撮ってくれて海ガメ産卵場所を教えてくれたりとシュノーケリング以外の移動中も楽しく過ごせた事が良かったです☆
シュノーケリング中の写真も沢山撮っていただいていたのでダウンロードし早速自分達のアルバムを作りました‼︎
気落ちしてた気持ちも上がりました⤴︎⤴︎
次回は是非台風の影響の受けない頃に是非参加させていただきたいです

またスタッフの皆さまとても親切に施設の使い方等も教えていただき短い時間ではありましたがとても楽しい時間を過ごす事が出来ました‼︎
(施設内の更衣室が広くウェットスーツに着替えをしやすかったです‼︎)

ありがとうございました。

The plan for the sea kayaking and snorkeling tour at the Blue Cave was changed to snorkeling at the beach due to the impact of the typhoon. They were flexible and adapted to the situation at that time.

The briefing from the guide before the tour was easy to understand for the children (ages 8 and 7). Although it was cloudy and quite windy, the waves were minimal, visibility was decent, and there were quite a few fish. The guide made various arrangements, allowing the whole family to enjoy the sea. They also took many underwater photos and later sent them to us via a LINE album. Although the tour content was changed, it still turned out to be a satisfying experience.

シーカヤック＆青の洞窟シュノーケルのツアーの予定が、台風の影響でビーチでのシュノーケルに変更。その時の状況によって臨機応変に対応してもらいました。
ガイドさんからのツアー前のブリーフィングは、子供(８歳と７歳)にも分かりやすい説明でした。曇っていて風も強かったのですが、波はほとんどなく透明度もまずまずで魚も結構いました。ガイドさんが色々と工夫してくれて、家族みんなで楽しみながら海を満喫しました。また水中の画像をたくさん撮ってくれて、あとでその画像をLINEのアルバムで送ってくれました。ツアー内容は変更となりましたが、それでも満足したツアーとなりました。

A few days ago, it seems like it was cloudy and the sunset was hard to see, but the day we went was a rare sunny day, and the scenery was amazing!

The staff's explanation of how to paddle the kayak was thorough and easy to understand! They also took pictures for us, and we were able to chat leisurely while kayaking, making for a meaningful time!

It was a valuable experience to go through the course under the Irabu Bridge. This was my second time kayaking, and I would love to participate again!

数日前までは、ずっと曇りであまり夕陽が見れなかったみたいですが、私たちか行った日は久しぶりの晴れだったようで、景色最高でした！

スタッフのカヤックの漕ぎ方の説明も丁寧で分かりやすかったです！また、写真取ってくれたり、カヤックに乗りながらゆっくりおしゃべりしたり、有意義な時間を過ごせました！

伊良部大橋の下を通るコースで貴重な体験でした
今回でカヤックは２回目でしたが、また参加したいです！

The clarity of the water was incomparable to that of the Sea of Japan. I never expected to see corals and fish over 10 meters below from the boat. I felt that Barasu Island, which was formed by the influence of ocean currents, is truly a miraculous island. That day, due to the spring tide, we were able to see a larger Barasu Island than usual. The tour of the limestone caves and canoeing was impressive, thanks to the cheerful character of our guide. It was an island where you could directly feel the power of nature.

海の透明度が日本海とは比べものにはならなかったです。10メートル以上下のサンゴや魚が船の上から見えるなんて思ってなかったです。
バラス島もたまたま海流の影響でできるなんて本当に奇跡の島だと感じました。
その日は大潮ということもあり普段より大きなバラス島を見ることができました。鍾乳洞&カヌーのツアーはガイドさんの明るいキャラが印象的でした。自然のパワーを直に感じることができる島でした。

I had my first stand-up paddleboarding experience on the Jungle Cruise. Since it was my first time, I was a bit anxious, but the guide taught me carefully, so I was able to enjoy it with peace of mind! I was glad to hear various explanations about Iriomote Island and the mangroves. I was also happy that we were able to take a lot of photos. The exploration of the limestone cave was truly enjoyable! I appreciated the guide's thoughtfulness as well.

Bara Island, known as the elusive island, seems to be quite rare, so I was very satisfied to be able to visit it this time. I really enjoyed my day on Iriomote Island! If I have the chance to go again, I would definitely like to request other tours! Thank you very much!

ジャングルクルーズでは初のsup 体験ができました。初めてなので少し不安もありましたが、ガイドの方が丁寧に教えてくれたので安心して楽しむことができました！
西表島のことやマングローブの説明など色々聞けてよかったです。
写真も沢山撮っていただけたのも嬉しかったです。
鍾乳洞も本当に探検という感じで楽しめました！ガイドさんの気遣いも感じられてよかったです表情にこにこ
幻の島バラス島はとっても珍しい島みたいなので今回行くことができて大満足です。
1日かけて西表島を本当に満喫できました！
また行くことがあれば是非他のツアーをお願いしたいです！
ありがとうございました

I wanted to visit various islands in a short period, so I decided to enjoy the great nature of Ishigaki Island in one day and signed up for a one-day package tour!
I was impressed by the beautiful, clear sea while snorkeling!
On the stand-up paddleboard, I felt like I was floating on the water!
The guide took many wonderful photos, and it truly became a great memory.

短期間で色んな島に行きたかったので、1日で石垣島の大自然を満喫しようと思い1日パックツアーを申し込みさせていただきました！
シュノーケリングは透き通ったキレイな海に感動しました！
supでは海の上に浮かんでるような気分でした！
ガイドのお兄さんが素敵な写真をいっぱい撮っていただき、本当にいい思い出になりました。

I participated in the night tour. Originally, I had planned for a jungle tour and stargazing, but I received a message from the guide before the tour, saying that due to the weather, we might not be able to see the stars. Instead, we ended up visiting two locations on the jungle tour. Although I couldn't see the stars I was looking forward to, I was able to see many creatures from Iriomote Island that you wouldn't typically see in the city, which was actually a nice surprise.

I was particularly worried about whether I would actually see the coconut crabs I had seen in the brochure, but as we entered the destination, several of them appeared up close, and I was overwhelmed by their impressive presence. The guide's stories were also interesting, making for a truly refreshing experience throughout the night.

I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have an extraordinary experience in the night jungle of Iriomote Island, not just for those who love creatures.

ナイトツアーに参加しました。
もともとジャングルツアーと星空観察の予定だったのですが、ツアー前にガイドの方から連絡があり、天候的に星空は見えないかも知れないとのことでジャングルツアーで2箇所を回ることになりました。
楽しみにしていた星は見られなかったのですが、代わりに都会ではまず見られない西表島の生き物をたくさん見れて、逆に良かったです。
特に、パンフレットで見たヤシガニが本当に出てくるか心配だったのですが、目的地に入って行くと何匹も間近に現れ、想像以上の迫力に圧倒されました。
ガイドの方のお話も面白く、本当に新鮮な体験の連続の一晩でした。
生き物好きの人に限らず、西表島の夜のジャングルで非日常的な体験をしてみたい人みんなにぜひオススメのツアーです。

The day we arrived was forecasted to be rainy, but it turned out to be sunny. The ocean was very beautiful, and we were able to see many fish. The tidal pool was also very refreshing. It was my first time experiencing SAP, but the guide was kind and thorough in their explanations, so I was able to stand up right away. It was a wonderful experience to fully enjoy the great nature of Ishigaki Island in just one day.

私たちが来る日が雨予報だったのですが当日晴れてくれました。
海がかなり綺麗でたくさんの魚が見れました。
滝つぼでの潮流しも気持ちかったです。
初めてのSAPでしたが優しく丁寧にガイドの方がレクチャーしてくださったのですぐに立てるようになりました。
石垣島の大自然を1日で満喫でき素晴らしい体験でした。

During my visit to Iriomote Island, what surprised me the most was how close nature was. Just a short distance from the road, there were mangrove forests right there. The limestone caves were also about a 15-minute walk from the road. Coming from a more urban area, it was quite shocking. The guide also seemed to be in harmony with nature, which gave me a great sense of reassurance. I was very satisfied with the beautiful photos taken. Thank you very much.

今回訪れた西表島、まず驚いたのは自然の身近さです。道路から少し離れればマングローブ林がすぐにそこにありました。鍾乳洞も道路から徒歩15分くらいのところにありました。どちらかというと都会に住んでいるので、衝撃でした。ガイドさんも自然と共に過ごしている感じがして、すごく安心感がありました。写真も綺麗に撮っていただき大変満足してます。ありがとうごさいました。

It was a day where I felt the kindness of the guide. Their language was polite, and I was also surprised by their strong ability to lead other guests. I heard they originally worked at Hoshino Resorts. It seems they were drawn to this place and changed jobs. I highly recommend Arai's guiding.

ガイドの方の優しさを感じる1日でした。言葉遣いも丁寧で尚且つ、他のお客さんを引っ張る力強さにもびっくりしました。元々星野リゾートにいらっしゃったとのこと。。
こちらのピピさんに惹かれて、転職されたらしいです。
新井さんのガイドは本当にオススメです。

The activities included snorkeling and mangrove canoeing. There were many fascinating creatures and uniquely shaped plants along the way, keeping things interesting. The shower room was clean and equipped with shampoo and body soap. I was very impressed that such facilities were available on Iriomote Island.

内容はシュノーケリング、マングローブカヌー。
道中に様々な生き物や不思議な形の植物など飽きさせない仕掛けが沢山でした。
清潔なシャワールーム。シャンプーボディーソープ付き。西表島でここまで設備が整っているとは非常に感心しました。

Driving through the countryside without streetlights from the bustling city, we explored the habitats of various creatures. On the coast, we spotted coconut crabs, and in Banna Park, birds like bats and owls were resting. The sounds of hermit crabs moving and retreating into their shells were enchanting. Watching the bats leap from tree to tree and listening to the hoots of the owls touched my heart. Looking up at the starry sky, I saw shooting stars and truly felt that I was glad to be here! Our guide worked hard to ensure we enjoyed our limited time to the fullest.

繁華街からクルマで街頭のない田舎道を走り抜けて、生き物たちの生息地をめぐります。
海岸にはヤシガニ、バンナ公園にはコウモリやフクロウなどの鳥たちが佇んでいます。
ヤドカリの移動する音、殻に閉じこもる音。
コウモリが木に飛び移る姿や、フクロウの鳴き声に耳を傾けると心に沁み入ってきます
星空を見上げると流れ星が流れ、心から来てよかったと思いました！
限られた滞在期間でできるだけ楽しんでもらうためにガイドさんが一所懸命案内してくれました。

They guided me to the bustling streets of Ishigaki Island, and the life jackets and marine boots needed for the marine leisure activities fittingly matched the name "paradise," making everything comfortable and stress-free without having to think about anything.

I especially enjoyed the Blue Cave. I did canoeing and played in the waterfall pool, but snorkeling in the Blue Cave was the most physically demanding, and as a result, I saw a lot of fish and had the most fun.

The Blue Cave is a popular spot, so it can get crowded, but stand-up paddleboarding over the spacious Kabira Bay was the best part, as it was a non-stressful experience without any interruptions.

I felt like I really got my money's worth with all the fun I had! Thank you for making me love Ishigaki Island even more!

石垣島の繁華街に案内してくれたり、楽園という名にふさわしいマリンレジャーに必要なライフジャケット、マリンブーツのサイズもぴったりでとにかく快適に何も考える必要がなくストレスフリーでした。
特に青の洞窟が楽しかったです。
カヌーをしたり滝つぼで遊んだりしましたが、青の洞窟シュノーケルは泳ぐので一番体力を使い、その分魚をたくさん見れて一番楽しかったです。
青の洞窟は人気スポットなので人がわちゃわちゃしてるんですが、サップは広い川平湾の上を誰にも邪魔されないノンストレスなところが最高。
こんなに遊べて得した気分になれました！
大好きな石垣島をもっと好きにしてくれてありがとうございました！

When we arrived, there were many other tour vehicles parked, which heightened our expectations even before we got there! The sea was beautiful, and there were plenty of fish swimming around, making it even more enjoyable than we had anticipated! I didn't want to miss out on Kabira Bay, and it was just as beautiful as I had imagined; I fell in love with it instantly. We had a packed experience, enjoying the view of the sea while swaying with the waves, taking breaks on the board, and standing up to enjoy the amazing location. At the waterfall basin, we swam up to the waterfall and had a refreshing splash of water over our heads, which felt great!

現地につくと他のツアーの車がたくさん停められていて、行く前から期待が高まりました！
海もきれいで魚もたくさん泳いでおり期待以上で楽しかったです！
川平湾は予定から外したくなく、思っていた通りキレイで一瞬で好きになりました。
波に揺られながら海を眺められ、ボードの上で休憩したり立って最高のロケーションを楽しめたりと盛りだくさんの体験ができました。
滝つぼでは滝まで泳いでいって頭から水浴びができて気持ちよかったです！

I participated in the half-day plan. In the morning, they picked me up at the hotel on time and took me to the port. It was farther from the island terminal than I expected, so I was glad I didn't have to go there on my own.

With 14 passengers and 3 crew members, we set off on a boat with a sunshade. They lent us seasickness bands at the start, and thanks to that, even though it was a day with high waves, no one got seasick until the end.

That day, the tide was higher than ever, and the phantom island was only partially visible. Since it was crowded with other tour guests, we decided to snorkel first and then go to the phantom island.

During the transfer, there was a snorkeling lesson, and they provided very detailed instructions.

Finally, we arrived at Ishigaki Coral Lagoon. There were colorful fish and blue and yellow corals! I even saw a clownfish! It was a bit disappointing that the visibility wasn't as high as I had hoped, but I still had a great time.

It was a bit chilly during the transfer after getting in the water, so it would be good to have a cover-up that can get wet.

And finally, we reached the phantom island.

After swimming a bit from the boat, we landed on the island. It was truly a beach-only island, and I was moved! Since the tide had receded more than in the morning and the number of tour guests had decreased, I was glad that RISE adjusted the plan according to the situation. I took plenty of photos for 30 minutes, lay on the sandy beach, and thoroughly enjoyed the phantom island. I didn't have the courage to dress up as a mermaid, but it looked cute when I saw others doing it.

The morning tour ended at 12:00, and they took us back to the hotel afterward.

You can have plenty of fun even with the half-day plan! They provided all the necessary snorkeling gear, tea, and seasickness bands, so all you need to do is wear your swimsuit and bring a towel while waiting at the hotel, which is convenient. The service was very polite, so I highly recommend it. Since the tide was too high this time, I would like to participate again during low tide.

半日プランに参加しました。
朝、時間通りにホテルまで迎えに来てくれ、港まで送ってくれました。離島ターミナルからは思ったより離れた港だったので自力で行かなくて良かったです。

14名の乗客と3名のクルーが乗り込み、日除け屋根つきの船で出発。
出発時に酔い止めバンドを貸してくれました。そのおかげか、波が高い日でしたが最後まで誰も酔っていませんでした。

この日は今までにないほど潮が満ちていて、幻の島は少ししか出ていないそう。他のツアー客で混み合っているので、まずシュノーケルをして、その後に幻の島へ行くことになりました。

移動中にシュノーケル講習があり、細かいところまでとても丁寧に指導してくれました。

いざ石西礁湖へ。
色とりどりの魚や、青や黄の珊瑚！カクレクマノミもいました！透明度は思ったほど高くなかったのが残念でしたが、それでも充分楽しめました。

海に入った後の移動中は少し寒かったので、濡れてもいい羽織りがあると良さそうです。

そしてついに幻の島へ。

船から少し泳いで島へ上陸。
本当に砂浜だけの島、感動しました！
朝よりも潮が引きツアー客も減っていたので、状況をみながらプランを練りなおしてくれるRISEさんで良かったと思いました。
30分間思う存分に写真を撮り、砂浜に寝転がり、幻の島を堪能しました。
人魚のコスプレは勇気が出なくてしませんでしたが、見ていたら可愛かったです。

午前ツアーは12時に終了し、その後ホテルまで送ってくれました。

半日プランでも充分に楽しめます！
シュノーケルに必要な装備全てとお茶、酔い止めバンドも用意してくれ、水着を着てタオルを持ってホテルで待っていればいいので楽です。対応もとても丁寧なのでおススメです。
今回は潮が高すぎたので、引き潮の時にまた参加してみたいです。

The chirping of birds colors the jungle river. When I listened closely to the flapping of their wings and closed my eyes, I could feel a nature that is much kinder and harsher than myself. The mangroves don’t say anything, but they firmly root themselves in the riverbed, as if they are trying to convey something to us tourists. The waterfall spills beautiful water endlessly, creating a sense that it is inviting us into a healing space. In the natural cave, I felt a strong aura and was enveloped by the air of another world flowing within the cave. On the white coral island of Baras, the beautiful contrast of the vibrant light blue sea and white is striking, stimulating all my senses no matter where I am. I experienced things I could never normally feel all at once and learned about the world of remote islands that I had not yet known.

鳥のさえずりがジャングルの川を彩ってくれます。
鳥の羽ばたきに耳を澄ませて、目をつぶってみると自分よりもずっと優しくて厳しい自然を感じることができました。
マングローブは何も言わないけどしっかりと川底の地面に根を張っていて、観光客の私たちに何かを伝えてくれてるようでした。
滝からはきれいな水がとめどなく溢れていて、私達を癒やしの空間に誘ってくれているような感じがしました。
自然の洞窟には強いオーラを感じ洞窟内に流れる別世界の空気に包み込まれていきました。
白いサンゴの島、バラスでは色鮮やかな水色の海と白のコントラストが美しく、どこにいても五感が揺さぶられます。
普段感じることができない経験を一度に体験でき、まだまだ知らなかった離島の世界を教わりました。

I was really intrigued by Iriomote Island, which is mostly untouched by development and boasts stunning natural beauty. It's located deep among the remote islands, and you reach the caves and waterfalls by navigating through the jungle. The jungle is so dense that you can easily lose your sense of direction, making it a place you definitely shouldn't venture into alone. To get to the waterfalls, you kayak from the sea into the river. Everyone who went trekking in the caves enjoyed discovering such caves hidden in the jungle. On Barasu Island, countless corals shine white, surrounded by a turquoise sea, and the soothing sounds of the corals and waves were incredibly relaxing. It’s a place I would love to visit again.

あまり開発されてなく島のほとんどが大自然の西表島にすごく興味を惹かれて参加しました。
離島の中でも最奥にあって、洞窟や滝はジャングルの中を抜けて向かいます。
ジャングルの中は方向を見失うほど草木が生い茂っていて、絶対に一人ではいけないような場所ばかりでした。
滝に向かうには海からカヤックで川へとはいります。
洞窟のトレッキングは見た人全員がジャングルの中にこんな洞窟があるなんてと楽しんでました。
バラス島には無数のサンゴが白く輝いていて周囲は水色の海が広がりざらざらとサンゴの音、波の音だけで癒やされました。
また行きたいと思える島でした

I was able to enjoy the experience until the end with lectures tailored to each individual, without neglecting safety or fun. We collected seven starfish and took a group photo with them. Personally, I tried free diving for the first time while snorkeling. It was more exhausting than I expected. Next time, I want to work on diving deeper. Although we had to change locations due to the typhoon, the final diving competition was fun. I will participate again, so thank you in advance.

安全も楽しさも両方疎かにせず一人一人に合ったレクチャーで最後まで楽しめました。ヒトデが多買ったのでヒトデを7つ集めてみんなで写真撮りました。個人的にシュノーケリングで初めて素潜り挑戦。思った以上に体力消耗しました。次はもっと深く潜れるよう頑張りたい。ただ台風のせいでポイント変更にはなってしまいましたが、最後の飛び込み大会？は楽しかったです。また参加しに参りますのでよろしくお願いします。

The blue cave I saw on the early morning boat with no other people was very mysterious and beautiful, leaving a strong impression on me. The captain's cheerful guidance was also very charming and enjoyable, allowing me to fully enjoy the cruise with peace of mind. Thank you!

人の入っていない早朝便でみた青の洞窟は、とても神秘的で美しく感銘を受けました。船長さんの愉快な案内もとてもチャーミングで楽しくまた、安心してクルーズを満喫できました。
ありがとうございました！

We very much enjoyed our tour and our guide was very informative and thorough! :)

All in all it was a brilliant activity and the people being responsible were typical Japanese- so they were polite but also really nice and they knew what they were doing. We had a brilliant time altogether. And unexpectedly saw dolphins on our way back! Thank you so much again!

I was looking forward to it, but since it was the day before the full moon, the moonlight was too strong and I couldn't see the stars well; it was no different from the starry sky at home. Also, I heard that a typhoon occurred, so in the second half, it was completely covered by clouds and I couldn't enjoy the stars at all.

期待してたのですが満月の前日だった為、月の光が強すぎて星が見えずらく、自宅の星空と変わりませんでした。
また台風が発生したとの事で、後半は雲に覆われて全く星を楽しむ事が出来ませんでした。
