All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

The trekking experience with the jungle's flora and fauna, the leisurely yet thrilling canoeing, the waterfall dive at the Piñal Sara Falls, landing on Palas Island, and snorkeling in the surrounding area were all packed with activities. Thanks to the guide's extensive explanations and thoughtful assistance with photography, I was able to fully enjoy the experience. Thank you very much.

トレッキングでジャングルの動植物、のんびりハラハラのとカヌー体験、ピナイサーラの滝での滝つぼダイブ、パラス島上陸と周辺でのシュノーケリングと、盛りだくさん。ガイドの方の豊富な説明と写真撮影等の心遣いに、集中して楽しめました。ありがとうございました。

Despite making a reservation at 1 AM on the day of the experience, I received a polite confirmation regarding the meeting place and what to bring! It's important for participants to use the restroom before departing from the meeting place, as there are no restrooms available until the end of the experience. From the meeting place, it takes about 10 minutes by car to reach Kabira Bay. The instructors provide clear explanations on how to use the paddle and how to balance on the board, making it easy for beginners to feel comfortable. The board is larger and more stable than I expected, so I was able to balance easily and even stand up! The view of Kabira Bay from standing up is breathtaking!! I was so captivated by the beauty of Kabira Bay that while paddling, I was surprised to realize how easily I had progressed, thinking, "Wow, I've come this far!" The guide was very friendly and kind, and they were great at taking photos! There were several photo spots, and they took natural pictures from various angles! When I received the data back, there were 130 photos, which made for wonderful memories! For those who might be worried about getting tired or whether they have enough stamina, you can take breaks along the way, and you can also paddle while sitting, which was great. Overall, the weather was nice, and Kabira Bay was incredibly beautiful, leaving me deeply moved.

当日の夜中1時に予約をしたにもかかわらず、集合場所や持ち物の確認のご連絡を丁寧にしていただきました！集合場所から出発するまでにお手洗いを済ませないと、体験終了までお手洗いがないので、参加される方はご注意を。集合場所で車に乗って川平湾まで10分程進みます。浜でパドルの使い方やボードに安定して乗る方法などを分かりやすくレクチャーしてくださるので初心者でも安心です。思ったよりボードが大きくて安定感があるので、簡単にバランスを取ることもできるし、立ち上がることもできました！立ち上がって見る川平湾は絶景です！！川平湾が綺麗すぎて無我夢中で漕いでると「もう、ここまできたのか！」と以外と簡単に前進できていて驚きました(*´ω｀*)ガイドさんはとってもフレンドリーで優しく、写真撮影も上手な方に担当していただけました！いくつか撮影スポットがあって色々な角度から自然に写真を撮ってくれていました！帰ってデータをいただいたら130枚もあり、とっても思い出に残りました！！疲れるかな、とか体力もつかな、と不安な方もいらっしゃるかと思いますが、途中で休みながら進めますし、座ったまま漕ぐことも出来ますのでよかったです。　
とにかくお天気も良く川平湾もとても綺麗で感動しました。

I participated in my first trip to Ishigaki Island with a friend! The day before the tour, there was heavy rain due to an approaching typhoon... On the day of the tour, the weather was unstable with rain followed by clouds, but I appreciate that the schedule was adjusted according to the weather.

In the morning, we went snorkeling at the Blue Cave, and in the afternoon, the Stand-Up Paddleboarding (SUP) at Kabira Bay was changed to mangrove SUP due to strong winds. Both activities were incredibly enjoyable, and I was able to fully appreciate the ocean and mangroves! The snorkeling was so beautiful that it felt like there was no impact from the typhoon the day before, and I was moved to see so many fish in the clear underwater world. It was my first time doing SUP, but there were almost no waves or wind, allowing us to leisurely paddle through the beautiful mangroves while enjoying the scenery—it was the best!

Both snorkeling and SUP were conducted with great care, and the instructors provided a wealth of information about the caves, fish, and mangrove plants. I also really enjoyed the conversations with the two instructors.

For lunch, we had about 2.5 hours including showering, eating, and moving, which allowed us to take our time without feeling rushed. During the tour, they took many photos and sent all of them via LINE, so I was happy to have these fun memories captured in pictures.

I think this is the best tour to fully enjoy Ishigaki Island! I am grateful that it was held during this time while taking COVID-19 precautions. Thank you very much!

初めての石垣島旅行に友人と行き参加しました！
ツアー参加の前日に台風接近の影響で大雨・・・ツアー当日も雨のち曇りで天気が不安定な状態でしたが、天候に合わせツアースケジュールを変更して開催して頂きありがとうございました。
午前に青の洞窟でシュノーケリング、午後の川平湾SUPは強風の為マングローブSUPに変更して頂き、どちらもとても楽しく海とマングローブを満喫できました！前日の台風の影響がないのではないかというくらいシュノーケリングでは綺麗な海中でたくさんの魚も見る事ができ感動でした☆SUPも初めてでしたが、波も風もほぼなく景色を楽しみながらゆったりと綺麗なマングローブの中を進め最高でした！
シュノーケルもSUPもとても丁寧に対応し教えて下さり、更に洞窟や魚やマングローブの植物の情報も豊富でインストラクターのお2人との会話もとても楽しかったです☆
お昼はシャワーと食事と移動を含めて2.5時間ほど取ってもらえ、移動も食事も急がすゆっくりとできました！
ツアー中たくさん写真を撮って頂き、LINEで全て送って頂け、楽しい思い出が写真で残す事もでき嬉しかったです♡
石垣島を満喫できる最高のツアーだと思います！
コロナ対策をしながら、この時期に開催して頂いた事感謝しています。ありがとうございました！

I don't usually participate in ocean activities, and the weather wasn't great, so I was wondering how it would turn out. However, the moment I exchanged words with the instructors, I felt that today was going to be fun.

In the end, they were really kind, easy to talk to, and taught us in a very considerate way, making it enjoyable until the very end. Due to the weather, we couldn't go to the cave and opted for canoeing instead, which turned out to be surprisingly fun. (It was nice that there were only the participants in the enclosed bay.)

With a little rain and wind, it felt like a bit of an adventure. I was also happy to see sea turtles up close three times. It was a luxury to see them so closely. I was relieved that I didn't encounter any sea snakes.

Thank you very much.

普段あまり海のアクティビティはしないし、天気もあまり良くなかったのでどうなるかと思いましたが、インストラクターの方々と言葉を交わした瞬間、今日は楽しくなれそうな感じがしました。
結果、本当に親切で接し易く、丁寧な教え方だってので最後まで楽しかったです。
天気の関係で鍾乳洞に行けず、カヌーにしましたが思いの外、楽しかったです。(囲まれた湾の中、参加した人たちしかいなかったのも良かったです）
少しの雨と風があったのもあり、ちょっとしたアドベンチャー気分でした。
ウミガメを3回も近くで見れたのも嬉しかったです。こんなに近くでウミガメを見れたのは贅沢でした。
ウミヘビに遭遇しなかったのもホッとしました。
ありがとうございました。

I participated because I was interested in the canoe experience and Pinai Sara Falls. Once I got used to it, the scenery was beautiful with mangrove forests lining both sides of the river. The view from the top of the falls was great, and jumping into the plunge pool felt refreshing, helping to relieve the fatigue from trekking.

カヌー体験とピナイサーラ滝に興味があって参加しました。カヌーは、慣れてくると、川の両岸にマングローブの森があって、景色がよかったです。滝の上からの見晴らしがよく、滝つぼに飛び込むと、トレッキングの疲れや体を冷やすことができて気持ち良かったです。

Due to poor sea conditions on the day, we were unable to go to Barasu Island, so we received a refund of 3,000 yen and instead participated in the SUP and cave tour. The SUP was difficult to balance on, and I capsized several times, but once I got used to it, I was able to paddle and enjoyed it. The cave exploration introduced on Itte Q had some formations that showed how stalactites are formed, which was great. On the way to the cave, there was a tunnel where the Iriomote cat passes through.

当日の海のコンディションが悪く、バラス島に行くことができなかったため、3000円返金となり、SUPと洞窟ツアーになりました。SUPは、バランスをとるのが難しく、何度も転覆しましたが、慣れると漕げるようになって楽しめました。イッテQで紹介された洞窟散策は、鍾乳石できるようすがわかるものがあり、よかったです。洞窟に行く途中に、イリオモテヤマネコが通るトンネルがありました。

I think there are usually several groups guided, but there were only my husband and me participating, so we were able to spend time one-on-one. We had a relaxing time with quizzes about mangroves and answers to our questions, which was a valuable experience. It was my husband's first time kayaking, but after a brief lecture beforehand, he was able to paddle right away and was thrilled. They lent us sandals and hats, so we could go almost hands-free, but since the sun is quite strong, sunscreen is a must. Along the way, we received photos taken at various points via LINE, and they turned out beautifully, creating great memories. Thank you very much!

普段は何組かでガイドしていただくと思いますが、私たち夫婦だけしか参加者がおらず、マンツーマンで時間を過ごすことができました。マングローブに関するクイズ？的なものや、質問にもそれぞれ答えていただき、ゆったりした時間を過ごせ、貴重な体験でした。夫は初めてのカヤックでしたが、事前の軽いレクチャーですぐに漕げるようになり、楽しい楽しいと感動しておりました。サンダルや帽子を貸していただき、ほぼ手ぶらで問題ありませんが、日差しがかなり強いので日焼け止めはマストです。途中、ポイントで撮影いただいた写真もLINEで頂きましたが、綺麗に撮れており、良い思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

It was amazing. I think I'm going to get hooked on SUP. There were moments when I felt really close to nature. They also took a lot of wonderful photos, and I'm very satisfied.

最高すぎました。サップにハマりそうです。すごく自然を近くに感じる瞬間もありました。
素敵な写真もいっぱい撮ってくださって､大満足です。

I participated in mid-June!
It was after the start of the rainy season, but we were blessed with good weather, and the sea was very empty, making it very comfortable.
I hoped to explore Pumpkin Hall and go on a sea turtle snorkeling day tour, but due to the conditions of the sea that day, we couldn't enter Pumpkin Hall...
They suggested switching to a boat, stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and snorkeling, so we started the tour with a full day of snorkeling!
First, we went snorkeling with sea turtles at Shinjo Beach!
Given the season, there were plenty of sea turtles! I was surprised to see them swimming so close.
After that, we moved to the coral zone to see the fish and fully enjoyed the beautiful sea! We snorkeled for about an hour.
I participated without a wetsuit, just in a swimsuit and rash guard. It got a bit chilly towards the end, but once we got out of the water, it felt warm and cozy.
I've heard that this time of year is the best temperature for snorkeling. The sea is still pleasantly warm, while it's really hot outside!
In the afternoon, they informed us about the snorkeling location, and since the afternoon tour mainly focused on coral, they advised that it wouldn't be much different from the current tour, so we quickly switched to the SUP tour.
Thank you for accommodating the sudden change.
In the afternoon, we gathered at Ingyamarine Garden and took a break for lunch.
We changed clothes and had lunch, then changed back into our swimsuits before the meeting time (it's tough to put on a wet swimsuit again, so it's convenient for those on a full-day tour to have a spare!). Then we started the SUP!
Ingyamarine Garden had calm waters near the bridge, perfect for practicing! Once we got used to it, we moved to the area beyond the bridge where there were waves.
I was a bit anxious about handling the SUP, but they connected the boards for us, which made it easy and reassuring!
I was surprised to see how far we had traveled when I looked back!
After that, we moved back to the calm area near the bridge and enjoyed about 30 minutes of free time.

It was my first time in Miyako Island, and I was very satisfied to be guided to two beautiful sea spots!
Above all, I was impressed that there was free time in both the morning and afternoon! I've participated in marine tours several times in Okinawa Main Island, but this was the first time I was given free time! It was a great point!

Next time I visit, I definitely want to go to Pumpkin Hall!
Thank you again!

6月半ばに参加しました！
梅雨入り後でしたが、天気にも恵まれ、海もすごく空いており、とても快適でした。
パンプキンホールの探索とウミガメシュノーケルの1日ツアーを希望するも、この日は海の都合でパンプキンホールには入れず。。
ボート、sup、シュノーケルに振替をご提案頂き、1日シュノーケルに切り替えツアースタート！
まずは、新城海岸でウミガメシュノーケル！
季節柄もあり、ウミガメいまくり！
物凄い近くを普通に泳いでてびっくりしました。
その後珊瑚ゾーンに移動しお魚を見て、
美しい海を大満喫！1時間くらいシュノーケルを楽しみました。
ウェットスーツは着ず、水着＋ラッシュガードでの参加しました。最後の方は少し寒くなりましたが、海から上がるとあったかくポカポカ気持ちよかったです。
今の時期がシュノーケルには1番いい気温だそうです。海はまだ生暖かくなってなくて、外はめっちゃ暑いから！
午後のシュノーケル場所の案内とともに、午後のツアーは珊瑚メインなので、今のツアーと変わり映えしない方ですよ、とアドバイスを頂き、急遽supツアーに切り替え。
突然の変更にも対応いただき、ありがとうございました。
午後は、インギャーマリンガーデン集合で、一旦お昼解散。
私たちは服を着替えて移動&ランチを取りました。
そして集合時間までに再度水着に着替え(濡れた水着を再度着るのは大変なので、1日ツアーの人は替えがあると便利！)、supスタート！
インギャーマリンガーデンは、橋の手前の方は波が全然なく、練習するのにもってこいの穏やかな海でした！慣れた頃に、橋の向こう側、波があるエリアへ移動。
操作に不安がありましたが、supを連結して移動してくださったので、楽ちん&安心でした！
後ろを振り返ると、かなりの距離を移動していてビックリ！
その後、波が穏やかな橋の手前ゾーンに移動し30分ほど自由時間を楽しみました。

初めての宮古島でしたが、綺麗な海を2箇所も案内してもらえ、大満足でした！
何より、午前、午後ともに自由時間があったことに感激！沖縄本島でも何度かマリンツアーに参加してきましたが、自由時間を頂けたのは今回が初めて！とてもいいポイントでした！

次回訪れた際は、是非ともパンプキンホールに行きたく！
また、よろしくお願いします。

This was my first time trying canoeing. My companions were also first-timers, so we were quite nervous. However, our guide, Tenshin, kindly and thoroughly taught us how to do it, making it a very reassuring and enjoyable tour!

Not only did we canoe, but we also received information about Okinawa's wildlife and plants, making it feel like a fun science fieldwork experience!

For those considering trying canoeing for the first time, I highly recommend it! Also, it's easily accessible from Naha, so those on a day trip to Okinawa can easily participate as well (laughs).

Thank you to Tenshin and all the staff! I look forward to seeing you again.

今回初めて、カヌーに挑戦しました。同行者の家族も初めてでドキドキ。そんな中、ガイドの天心さんが親切丁寧にやりかたを教えてくださり、非常に安心して楽しめるツアーだったと思います＾ー＾

カヌーだけでなく、沖縄の生物や植物に関する情報もご案内くださり、まるで理科のフィールドワークのような楽しさでした！

カヌーに初めて挑戦しようと考えている方！おすすめです～
また、那覇からも好アクセスなので、沖縄日帰り旅行をされるかたも余裕で参加で来ちゃいます（笑）

天心さんはじめスタッフのみなさん、ありがとうございます！またお会いできることを楽しみにしています。

I used this activity as my main event during my first visit to Okinawa. I was a bit anxious because I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but thanks to the guidance from the instructor, I was able to enjoy snorkeling in the stunning scenery of Barasu Island and even had the luck of encountering a sea turtle.

In the afternoon, we explored the mangroves with kayaking and trekking. Since we were the only participants due to the timing, we were able to enjoy it thoroughly. I also learned that there is a night plan for stargazing available for those staying on Iriomote Island, and I would like to experience that next time.

I visited Okinawa to enjoy the extraordinary and nature, and thanks to this activity, I was able to create even more wonderful memories. Thank you very much.

初めての沖縄でメインのアクティビティとして利用させていただきました。
泳ぎに自信がなく不安もありましたが、ガイドさんにレクチャーいただきバラス島の絶景の中、安心してシュノーケリングを楽しむことができ、運良くウミガメにも遭遇できました。

午後はカヤック・トレッキングでマングローブを散策しました。
時期をずらしたこともあり我々だけの参加者でしたのでたっぷり楽しむことができました。
西表島の宿泊者であれば星空を眺めるナイトプランもあるとのことで、次回はそちらも体験したいと思いました。

非日常、自然を味わうために沖縄を訪れましたがこのアクティビティのおかげでより一層いい思い出を作ることができました。
ありがとうございました。

It was a tour where I could enjoy both river and sea kayaking, offering great value, and the guide provided plenty of explanations, making it very satisfying! I was surprised to find that there are mangrove tours in Japan! It was a valuable experience!

I heard that they are also strong during the rainy season and typhoon periods, so if you're worried about the weather, I think it's best to consult with them first.

リバー＆シーカヤックどちらも楽しめて、お得感たっぷり、ガイドさんの解説も豊富で大満足なツアーでした！
日本でマングローブツアーがあるとは！びっくり☺️♡貴重な体験でした！

梅雨や台風の時期にも強いとのことでしたので、お天気不安でしたら、まずこちらにご相談されるのが良いかと思います☺️

It was my first time kayaking, and I thoroughly enjoyed it thanks to the guidance of the handsome staff member, Tenshin. I want to try SUP next time!

初めてのカヤックでしたが、イケメンスタッフの天心さんのガイドで満喫させて頂きました^_^ 今度はSUPにも挑戦したいです！

We were unable to land on Barasu Island due to high waves during snorkeling, but the afternoon mangrove canoeing was excellent thanks to the knowledgeable explanations from the staff. They took many photos for us, and we are very grateful. Overall, the staff were incredibly kind and professional, allowing us to experience a wonderful and extraordinary time. Thank you very much. Next time I visit the Okinawa islands, I would like to bring my grandchildren and use your services. I also want to recommend you to acquaintances and friends.

バラス島シュノーケルでは波が高く上陸できませんでしたが、午後のマングローブカヌーはスタッフの方の知識高い説明がとても良かったです。写真もたくさん撮って頂き、感謝しております。全体を通して、スタッフの方々はたいへん親切でプロ意識が高く非日常の楽しい時間を体験できました。たいへんありがとうございました。次回沖縄離島に行く際は、今度は孫を連れて貴社を利用したいと思います。知人、友人にも紹介したいと思います。

We participated as a couple. We received a message the day before, and the itinerary included SUP at Kabira Bay and snorkeling at the Blue Cave, just as we had hoped. On the day of the tour, we met at the location, and since they pick you up at the parking lot, there’s no chance of getting lost. Since we were the only group, it felt like a private tour.

We traveled to the experience location in the shop's vehicle, and they provided us with sightseeing information during the ride, which was very attentive. It was my first time doing SUP, but I was surprisingly able to stand up easily. They gave us a lecture before we started, and they were very supportive throughout the experience. We had a great time while taking breaks.

You won’t fall off, but it’s recommended to wear a swimsuit in case you get wet, and since the sun is strong, wearing a rash guard is also a good idea. Additionally, it’s a good idea to bring drinks like bottled water, as you might get thirsty.

For lunch, we had about 1.5 hours at Kabira Park, including a break. I thought it was a bit long, but we relaxed on the benches and rested our bodies. Since there was also time to ride the glass-bottom boat, I don’t think time would be an issue.

In the afternoon, we went to the Blue Cave for snorkeling. They provided detailed explanations about the cave and the types of fish we encountered. Throughout the tour, they took many photos, which we received later via LINE, and I was really happy about that! I felt the guide's thoughtfulness in capturing not only us but also the scenery and underwater creatures.

After the tour, we were able to use a water shower and changing room near the parking lot, so we could change clothes. Overall, I was grateful for the attentive service from our guide, Yamagata. I created wonderful memories from this first-time experience. I learned that they offer various tours, so I would love to use this shop again!

夫婦で参加しました。
前日に連絡があり、川平湾でSUP、青の洞窟でシュノーケリングという希望通りのメニューになりました。
当日は現地集合、駐車場で待っていればピックアップしてくれるので迷う事もありません。
私たち1組のみだったので、プライベートツアー状態でした。
体験場所へはお店の車で移動、車中でも観光情報も教えてくれたりと丁寧に対応してくれます。
SUPは初めてでしたが、意外と簡単に立てました。
乗る前にレクチャーしてくれて、途中のフォローも万全です。休憩しながら楽しく体験できました。
落ちる事はないですが、濡れても良いように水着、日差し強いのでラッシュガードなど着用をオススメします。あと、喉乾くのでペットボトルなど飲み物持参が良いです。
お昼は休憩も含めて川平公園で1.5時間ほどありました。少し長いなとも思いましたが、ベンチでのんびりして体を休めてました。グラスボート乗る時間もあるので時間には困らないと思います。
午後は青の洞窟、シュノーケリングです。
洞窟、魚の種類など、都度丁寧に説明してくれます。　全体通して写真をたくさん撮ってくれて、後でLINEで貰えます、これとても嬉しかったです！
私たちだけでなく、風景や水中の生物なども撮ってくれてたところにガイドさんの心遣いを感じました！
終了後は、駐車場近くで水シャワーと更衣室を借りられるので着替えもできました。
全体通して、ガイド山形さんの丁寧な対応に感謝でした。
初体験の良い思い出ができました。
いろいろなツアーがあるとの事なので、また利用したい思えるショップでした♪

I experienced SUP and snorkeling for the first time. During SUP, the instructor guided us to beautiful spots for photos, allowing us to take memorable pictures, and they provided a course that was enjoyable even for beginners. In snorkeling, I was able to swim with a sea turtle, which was a long-held dream of mine. Additionally, I got to interact with clownfish and various other fish, and I am very satisfied. Thank you! It became a wonderful memory.

初めてSUPとシュノーケリングを体験しました。SUPではインストラクターさんが写真が綺麗に撮れる場所に誘導してくれて、思い出深い写真を撮ることが出来たり、初心者でも楽しめるようなコースで案内してくれました。
シュノーケリングは、念願のウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました。その他にも、クマノミや色々なお魚と触れ合う事が出来て、とても満足しております。ありがとうございました！素敵な思い出になりました。

I had the opportunity to experience SUP in the first half and snorkeling in the second half!

During the SUP, we navigated through the mangroves and then trekked to Kura Falls. The guide shared a lot of interesting stories about the mangroves and animals, which made it really enjoyable!

In the second half, we went to Barasu Island for snorkeling. The sea was incredibly beautiful and clear, allowing us to see far and spot many fish, corals, and even sea turtles—it was the best!

It was my first time doing both SUP and snorkeling, but the guides taught us patiently, so I felt safe and had a great time on the tour. Everyone was really fun and kind, and I learned a lot about the charm of Iriomote Island, making it a truly wonderful memory. Thank you so much!!! I am grateful!

前半はSUP、後半はシュノーケリングを体験させて頂きました！
SUPではマングローブの中を進み、途中からトレッキングでクーラの滝まで向かいました。
ガイドのお兄さんがマングローブや動物などのお話を沢山してくれたので凄く楽しかったです！

後半はバラス島へ行き、シュノーケリングをしました。
本当に海が綺麗で透明度が高く、潜ると広くまで見渡せて沢山の魚や珊瑚、ウミガメも見ることができて最高でした！
SUPもシュノーケリングも初めてでしたが、ガイドの方々が丁寧に教えてくれたので安心して楽しくツアーに参加することができました。
皆さんすごく面白くて親切で、西表島の魅力も沢山知ることができたので本当に素敵な思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！！！感謝です！

During my second visit to Ishigaki Island, I participated in a tour to enjoy mangrove exploration with SUP on Iriomote Island. It was my first time on a SUP, but I felt reassured as I received proper instructions. I managed to maintain my balance quite well, allowing me to stand, sit, and even lie down, which let me appreciate the mangroves from various angles. I didn't fall in (not me, haha)!

The limestone cave, which I thought would be just a bonus, turned out to be so interesting that it could have been the main attraction. There were no handrails, it was narrow and dark, and we passed through three caves. By the end, we really had to crawl out, making it a thrilling exploration. It was the perfect way to enjoy the nature of Iriomote Island.

Our guide provided fascinating explanations about various plants and animals, and he was attentive to everyone. Since it was a small group, it made for a fun and lively tour. The guide took over 100 photos, capturing many great shots that became wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

As for the landing on Barasu Island, well... it was okay, but the boat ride was enjoyable and the sea was beautiful, so I’ll save snorkeling for next time.

2度目の石垣島訪問で今回は西表島でSUPでマングローブ巡りを満喫したくてツアーに参加しました。
SUPは初めてだったけれど、きちんと教えてもらえたので安心だったし、結構バランスは取れて、たったり座ったり寝転んだりできるので、いろんな角度でマングローブが楽しめました。落ちなかったし(私はww)！
そしておまけのつもりの鍾乳洞が、実はメインにしてもいいくらい面白かった。手すりなんてないし狭いし暗いし、三箇所の鍾乳洞を通ったけれど最後はほんとに這いつくばって出るしかなくて、探検隊満喫しました。西表島の自然を楽しむには最高です。
ガイドさんは色々な植物とか動物を説明してくれて面白かったし、皆んなに気を配ってくれて、少人数ということもあってわいわいとした楽しいツアーでした。
100枚以上の写真を撮ってくれたガイドさん、ベストショットが沢山あって良い思い出になりました。ありがとうございました。
コメントしてないバラス島上陸はまあ、、でもボートが楽しかったし海はきれいだったので、次回シュノーケリングを楽しみにとっておきます。

In the morning, I participated in a snorkeling tour, and in the afternoon, I joined a canoe tour in the mangroves. To put it simply, it was an amazing experience. First, we visited Baras Island, one of only two coral islands in the world. From there, we started snorkeling, and I was so moved by the crystal-clear sea, the many fish, and the corals—it was truly wonderful. The afternoon canoeing lasted about an hour and a half, during which the guide explained about the mangroves. His stories, filled with interesting events, made it even more enjoyable. I was able to take many photos, and they were sent to me right after the day, allowing me to savor the experience even after it was over.

Thank you for all the wonderful experiences. I’m really glad I participated in this tour!

午前中シュノーケリング、午後マングローブでのカヌーのツアーに参加させていただきました。ひとことで言って、最高すぎる体験。初めに、世界に２つしかない珊瑚でできた島、バラス島。そこからシュノーケリングスタートして、透き通った海と、たくさんの魚、珊瑚たちでこんなにも素敵なんだと、感動ばかりでした。午後のカヌーは、マングローブのことをお兄さんに説明してもらいながら１時間半程。出来事を加えながらの話が面白く、より楽しいものになりました。たくさん写真を撮ってもらえ、当日すぐに送っていただけて体験終わった後も余韻に浸れるものでした。
たくさんのいいものをありがとうございました。こちらのツアーに参加して本当によかったです！！

I was anxious about my first snorkeling experience, but the staff were very attentive and supportive. Because of that, I was able to relax and it turned out to be the best experience. On the phantom island, I enjoyed my free time in a wonderful location and took great photos using photo items. While snorkeling, I was moved by the beautiful sea of Ishigaki as I swam over precious coral reefs and colorful tropical fish. I want to come back to see the best sea, the best time, and the best staff again.

初めてのシュノーケリング体験で不安でしたが、スタッフの方々が丁寧に対応してくれました。
そのため、安心して過ごすことができ、最高の体験となりました。
幻の島では、素晴らしいローケーションの中で滞在時間を自由に過ごしたりフォトアイテムを使って素敵な写真を撮って頂きました。
シュノーケリングでは、貴重な珊瑚礁や色とりどりの熱帯魚の上を泳いでいると石垣の綺麗な海に感動しました。
最高の海、最高の時間、最高のスタッフに、また会いにきたいと思います。

I participated in this tour in mid-May 2021. I chose the kayak, SUP + sea turtle snorkeling + Pumpkin Hall visit course. The participating groups included two groups for kayaking and SUP, including us, and one additional group for sea turtle snorkeling, making a total of three groups.

Our guide was a very friendly young man, and the whole experience was relaxed and enjoyable without any tension.

The kayaking and SUP take place at Imugya Beach. There are no waves, and you can practice in a lake-like area, so it's safe for beginners. Right next to it, there's a bay where you can also play in the sea, which adds to the satisfaction.

We then moved to Poraisen Beach for sea turtle snorkeling. After swimming a little, the guide quickly found sea turtles for us. We spotted about three and swam with them while taking photos. The sea turtles didn't escape even when we got close. After that, we snorkeled a bit further out, but the guide provided a rope, so even those who are not good at swimming can just hold onto the rope to see corals and fish.

After about two hours, we disbanded and visited Pumpkin Hall at Shinjo Coast. Since we walk through shallow waters, there’s probably no worry about being swept away. Although shoes are available for rent, the stones on the seabed can be a bit painful. After walking for a while, we entered through a deep spot at the entrance, and a fantastic space opened up. We climbed through the cave and received various explanations. It was very mystical.

The guide took photos for us and sent them via LINE at the end, so there's no need for a phone or camera (in fact, they might get in the way during SUP or snorkeling. There were some people who lost their underwater cameras while snorkeling). Everything is meeting at the site, so a rental car or other means of transportation is essential.

Everything takes place in the south and southeast of Miyako Island, making it very convenient for those staying at Shigira. There are no changing facilities, so you need to wear your swimsuit. There are no showers, but they provide water to rinse off. I think you’ll end up getting in the car with a wet swimsuit on the way back, so it’s a good idea to bring a thick towel or a plastic sheet.

This tour allows you to enjoy a full day and experience a lot of Miyako Island, so I highly recommend it! Swimming with the sea turtles was a wonderful experience!

2021年5月中頃に利用しました。
カヤック・SUP＋ウミガメシュノーケリング＋パンプキンホール見学のコースを選択。参加グループは、カヤック・SUPが我々を入れて2組、ウミガメシュノーケリングからは1組増え合計3組。
とても気さくなお兄さんがガイドで、終始緊張せず和やかに進んでいきました。

カヤック・SUPはイムギャービーチで行います。波がなく、湖のような場所で練習ができるので初心者でも安心です。すぐ隣に湾があり、海でも遊べるので満足感があります。
場所を変えて保良泉ビーチでウミガメシュノーケリング。少し泳いでいるとガイドさんがすぐにウミガメを見つけてくれました。3匹ほど見つけ、一緒に泳いだり写真を撮ってもらいました。ウミガメは近くによっても全然逃げません(^^)。その後に少し沖の方までシュノーケリングをしますが、ガイドさんが紐を出してくれるので泳ぎが苦手な方でも紐を掴んでいるだけでサンゴや魚が見えます。
2時間ほど解散したあと、新城海岸でパンプキンホール見学。遠浅の海を歩いていくので流される心配は恐らくありません。ただ、シューズを借りられますが海底の石で凸凹しており少し痛いかもしれません。しばらく歩き、入口の深い場所を潜って中に入ると幻想的な空間が拡がっています。洞窟を登っていき、色んな説明を受けます。とても神秘的でした。

写真はガイドさんが撮ってくださり、最後にLINEで送ってくださるので携帯やカメラは無しでも問題ありません。(むしろSUPやシュノーケリングでは邪魔になってしまうかも。シュノーケリング中に海中カメラが流されてしまった方もいらっしゃいました。)
全て現地集合なのでレンタカーなどの移動手段が必須です。
全て宮古島の南、南東で行われるのでシギラで泊まっている方にはとても便利な場所です。
着替える場所が無いので水着を着ていく必要があります。シャワーもありませんが、身体を流す水は用意してくれます。帰りは濡れた水着で車に乗ることになると思うので、厚手のタオルかビニールシートを用意すると◎。

1日遊べて宮古島を沢山堪能出来るツアーなのでとてもオススメです！ウミガメと一緒に泳げたのはとてもいい経験になりました！

They quickly accommodated my last-minute reservation the day before. During the first half of the snorkeling, I was able to swim with the blue corals and many fish swimming around them. In the second half, we progressed through the jungle on a stand-up paddleboard and then trekked to a waterfall. The weather was great, and it was the best experience. The guide was very friendly and knowledgeable, sharing stories about Iriomote Island while we moved to the activity locations, which was very enjoyable. Additionally, the guide took many photos during the tour and sent them to us later, which was excellent. We didn't have to worry about taking pictures, so we could fully enjoy the activities.

前日の急な予約にも素早く対応していただけました。前半のシュノーケルでは、青い珊瑚やそこに群がるたくさんのお魚たちと一緒に泳ぐことができました。後半では、SUPでジャングルの中を進み、途中からトレッキングをして滝を目指しました。天気も良く最高でした。ガイドさんも非常に親しみやすく知識豊富なため、アクティビティの場所に移動するまでの間も西表島のお話をしてくださり、とても楽しめました。また、ツアー中はガイドさんが写真をたくさんとってくれていて後から写真をおくってもらえたのも非常に良かったです。自分たちは写真を撮る必要がなかったため、全力でアクティビティを楽しめました。

The guide was kind and gentle, providing a thorough tour that allowed us to enjoy ourselves to the fullest. Throughout the canoeing and trekking, the guide offered detailed explanations of the flora and fauna, making it easy to understand. It was my first tour on Iriomote Island, but I felt safe and comfortable participating until the end. I highly recommend this tour for anyone considering canoeing or trekking on Iriomote Island.

ガイドさんが親切で優しく、私たちが最大限に楽しめるよういたせりつくせりのツアーです。
カヌー中もトレッキング中もこまめなガイドや動植物の説明が分かりやすく初めての西表島でのツアーでしたが安心して最後まで参加することができました。
西表島でカヌーやトレッキングをお考えの方におすすめのツアーです。

I was able to see many sea turtles. I took a lot of photos and was very satisfied. Since there are movements between programs, a rental car is essential. They also recommended several places for lunch, and I enjoyed delicious soki soba. The Pumpkin Cave had a refreshing jump from above at the end. The instructor provided various explanations inside the cave and answered questions politely. Since there is quite a bit of walking to get to the cave, I recommend applying sunscreen thoroughly.

ウミガメにたくさん会えました。写真もたくさん撮っていただき、満足です。プログラム間に場所の移動があるのでレンタカーは必須です。お昼を食べるお店もいくつかおすすめしていただき、美味しいソーキそばを食べました。パンプキン洞窟は、最後に上から飛び込みがあり気分爽快でした。インストラクターさんは、洞窟内で色々と説明してくださり、質問にも丁寧に答えてくれました。洞窟に行くまではけっこう歩くので、しっかりと日焼け止めを塗っておくことをお勧めします。

Most of the participants in the usual tour were SUP beginners, and I was one of them, but the instructor taught us carefully, so there were no problems. Balancing on the board was not as difficult as I thought. The sea was beautiful, so I didn't mind falling off the board.

During snorkeling, I was moved to see colorful fish up close, like those you see in an aquarium. When I got tired from swimming, I could rest in a floating position in the sea or call out to the instructor at any time.

The rental wetsuits and marine shoes also came in larger sizes, which made it very comfortable to participate in the activities, so I was very grateful.

On the way to our destination, I learned about sightseeing spots in Ishigaki Island and geographical information, which was educational. After the tour that day, I was very happy to receive many photos. Thank you very much.

The tour was fantastic; due to high winds, we were not able to snorkel at the blue cave, but instead, we went to a nearby coral field. It was my first time snorkeling, and the view was fantastic. We got to see a lot of colorful sea creatures, including clownfish and a black and white banded sea snake. Our guide also told us that on some days, you can see sea turtles. In the afternoon, paddle boarding was a lot of fun, going close to the shoreline in Kabila Bay. It is a great way to experience the bay, and there is a chance to see other parts of the bay during the lunch break. Overall, the tour was a lot of fun.

普段のツアー参加者のほとんどがSUP初心者とのことで、私も同様でしたが、インストラクターの方が丁寧に教えてくださるので、問題ありませんでした。
ボードの上でバランスを取るのは、思ったよりも難しくありませんでした。海が綺麗なため、ボードから落ちても平気でした。

シュノーケリングでは、水族館で見かけるようなカラフルな魚を間近で見ることができ、感動しました。
泳ぎ疲れたら海に浮かぶポーズで休んだり、いつでもインストラクターの方にお声掛けしたりできました。

レンタルのウェットスーツやマリンシューズも大きいサイズがあり、快適にアクティビティを行えたため、非常に助かりました。

また、目的地に向かう道で、石垣島の観光スポットや、地理情報を教えていただき、勉強になりました。
当日のツアー後に、たくさんの写真をお送りいただき、とても嬉しかったです。ありがとうございました。

The weather was great, and the sea was very beautiful. I was able to see a sea turtle eating right in front of me and even swim with it. Seeing six of them felt like a dream! It seems that the sea turtle spots change every year, and another beach used to be famous for them.

The Pumpkin Cave is about a 20-minute walk to get there. It was very magical. I've never seen such a cave anywhere else. Inside, it felt a bit like easy bouldering, and you do quite a bit of climbing. The water was cool, and there was even a natural mud pack. I would love to visit again when I come to Miyako Island.

天気にも恵まれて、海もとても綺麗でした。目の前でウミガメが食事している姿見れたり、一緒に泳ぐことができました。6匹も見れるなんて夢のようです！ウミガメのスポットは年々変わっているらしく、前は別のビーチが有名だったそうです。
パンプキン鍾乳洞は、場所まで20分程度歩きます。とても幻想的でした。あんな鍾乳洞、他ではみたことありません。中では簡単なボルダリングのような感じで、結構登ったりもします。水はひんやりしており、天然の泥パックもありました。宮古島に遊びにきた時にまた利用したいと思いました。

Not only did we enjoy paddleboarding, but we also had a fulfilling day exploring the mangrove forest and snorkeling! The guide was kind and taught us many things, so it was a lot of fun! I highly recommend it!

SUPだけでなく、マングローブ林を散策したり、シュノーケリングしたりと充実した日になりました！
ガイドさんも優しく色んなこと教えてくださったので、とても楽しかったです！おすすめします！

In the morning, I experienced kayaking at Kabira Bay, followed by a lunch break and a visit to the Blue Cave for snorkeling.

Kayaking out into the ocean while feeling the wind was refreshing. The headwind was quite tough, but I heard they can pull you if it gets too difficult.

We had our lunch break around the Kabira Bay observation deck. Since we had some time, I also took a ride on a glass-bottom boat (for an additional fee).

At the Blue Cave, we approached on foot during low tide. Perhaps because it was low tide, the blue color wasn't as vivid, but I was a bit overwhelmed by the structure of the cave (which is short). The best part was snorkeling, where I saw quite a few fish even in the shallow waters.

I was also very satisfied with the many photos taken. The two guides were lively, which made me feel happy as well.

午前中に川平湾でカヤック体験、お昼休憩を挟んで青の洞窟訪問+シュノーケリングでした。

カヤックで風をあびながら沖に出るのは爽快でした。
向かい風はかなりしんどいですが、辛かったら引っ張ってくれるらしいです。

お昼休憩は川平湾展望台周辺で。時間があったので個別に(有料の)グラスボートも乗りました。

青の洞窟は、時間的に干潮のタイミングで、歩いて近づきました。
干潮だからか青さが伝わって来なかったですが、洞窟(短いです)の作りはちょっと圧倒されました。
1番よかったのはシュノーケリングで、浅瀬でもかなりの魚が見れました。

写真もかなりたくさん撮ってくれて満足です。
案内してくれたお2人ともイキイキとしていてこちらも楽しい気持ちになりました。

Although it was the rainy season in Miyako Island, we enjoyed sunny days and the beautiful Miyako Blue every day. This time, I experienced sea turtle snorkeling and the Pumpkin Cave, and I was moved to swim alongside the sea turtles. I believe the Pumpkin Cave is the best activity you can only experience in Miyako Island. The guide provided detailed explanations, which were very informative. Every beach in Miyako Island is beautiful, but the two beaches we visited were truly breathtaking. Thank you very much.

梅雨の時期の宮古島でしたが毎日晴れて宮古ブルーを楽しました。
今回ウミガメシュノーケリングとパンプキン鍾乳洞を体験しましたが、ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐ事が出来て感動しました。
パンプキン鍾乳洞は宮古島でしか体験出来ない最高のアクティビティだと思います。
ガイドさんもいろいろ詳しく説明していただき勉強になりました。
どこの海も綺麗な宮古島ですが連れて行ってもらった２つのビーチは感動の連続です。
ありがとうございました。

This was my third time on Iriomote Island, and I finally got to visit Barasu Island. Depending on the weather, it can be inaccessible, but this time I was able to go! It was about a 10-minute ride from the port on a cruiser. I got to sit at the very front, which made me feel like a dolphin, and that was fun!

Barasu Island is formed from coral, and part of it was submerged due to high sea levels, but the surrounding water was clear and beautiful. The coral reefs were amazing, and I was able to see table corals as well as rare red and blue corals. I also encountered clownfish and enjoyed snorkeling. The staff from Pipi were always attentive to safety, which made me feel secure throughout the trip!

We explored the Kuira River, which felt like a jungle cruise at Disneyland, using canoes and stand-up paddleboards. The mystical scenery changed with the light. Our guide, Mu-san, was entertaining and always brightened the atmosphere, responding warmly to any situation! Thanks to them, I had a wonderful experience.

今回は３回目の西表島で、
ようやくバラス島に行けました。天候次第で行けない場合もあり、今回初めて行く事が出来ました！
クルーザーで港から１０分程度！一番前に座らせて頂き、まるで、イルカの様な気持ちになれ、それも面白かった！

バラス島はサンゴが滞留して出来た島で、海の水位が高く一部埋もれていましたが、周りの海の透明度は高く綺麗でした。
サンゴ礁も素晴らしくテーブルサンゴや赤、青の珍しいサンゴも見る事が出来ました。
クマノミにも出会えシュノーケルを堪能しました。サポートでpipiのスタッフが常に安全を気をつけておられ、終始安心出来ました！

クーラ川での、disney landのジャングルクルーズの様な大自然、マングローブの中をカヌーとSUPにて行いました。光の加減でクルクル変わる神秘的な景色。ガイドのむーさんは面白く、いつも場を明るく盛り上げ、どんな状況でも温かく対応してくれました！おかげで素晴らしい体験が出来ました。
