All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

I was a bit anxious since it was my first snorkeling experience, but the staff were very attentive and made me feel at ease, allowing me to enjoy it fully.
It was a cloudy day, but the water was very clear, and I could see underwater well.
They provided explanations about the marine life each time, which deepened my knowledge.
And I even encountered two sea turtles! I was thrilled to see them swimming gracefully up close!
They also provided lunch, drinks, showers, and bath towels, which showed great consideration.
I definitely want to participate again.

初めてのシュノーケリング体験なので不安はありましたが、スタッフの方々がとても丁寧に対応して下さり、安心して楽しむことができました。
当日は曇り空、でも海の透明度が高くしっかりと海中が見渡せました。
生き物の説明もその都度してくれるので、知識も深まります。
そしてなんと海ガメ2匹に出会えました！間近で優雅に泳ぐ姿に感激！
お弁当や飲み物、シャワー、バスタオルも用意されており気配りも◎
是非また参加したいです。

Since the guide was a newcomer, we had a more experienced guide accompany us, and the two of them guided us together. We arrived at the canoeing spot after about 30 minutes, just when we were starting to feel tired. The trekking was also just right, taking about 20 minutes and making us sweat a little. After returning, I took a shower, felt the natural breeze in the hammock while drinking a beer, and it was truly a wonderful holiday. They took a lot of photos for us and sent them right away via LINE. Thank you very much.

ガイドさんが新人でしたので先生役のガイドさんが付き2人で案内してもらいました。カヌーも30分くらいで疲れたころに到着。トレキングも少し汗が出るくらいで（20分）到着でちょーどいい具合でした。帰ってからシャワーを使いハンモックで自然の風を感じてビールを飲んで、実にいい休日でした。写真もたくさん撮っていただきラインですぐに送ってもらいました。ありがとうございました。

If you're going to participate, I absolutely recommend this course that includes both Takijō and Takitsubo. The trek to Takijō was physically challenging for me, as I don't usually engage in sports, but our guide shared interesting information about the jungle, Iriomote Island, and even personal stories, making the mountain climbing enjoyable.

When I finally reached Takijō, a breathtaking view unfolded before me! The sense of accomplishment!!! The refreshing feeling!!! While entering the cold river, I thought, "I'm so glad I came here." The warm Yaeyama soba was also incredibly delicious; I finished every drop of the broth.

Then we headed to Takitsubo. Floating in the pool while looking up at the sky and the waterfall is an experience you can only have here. Once again, I thought, "I'm so glad I came here."

Afterward, we enjoyed warm tea and sweet snacks, which was just perfect for our tired bodies. They really know how to take care of you.

As we leisurely paddled down the river in a canoe (the canoe ride back and forth was also fantastic; the view of Iriomote Island from the canoe was amazing!), my husband and I talked about wanting to come back again. It was a healing experience in nature and a great detox. I highly recommend it for those who are tired of city life.

参加するなら絶対滝上＆滝つぼの両方に行くこのコースがオススメです。
先に行く滝上までは普段からスポーツをしない私には体力的に厳しいものでしたが、ガイドさんがジャングルについて教えてくれたり、西表島の事やら、私生活やら楽しくおしゃべりしながら山登りしていきました。
息が上がりながら滝上までたどり着くと
絶景が広がっています！
達成感！！！爽快感！！！冷たい川に入りながら「来てよかった～」ってなりました。
あったかい八重山そばも、とっても美味しいです。汁までぜんぶいただきました
そして滝つぼへ。
滝つぼでぷかぷか浮きながら空と滝を見上げるのはここでしか出来ない体験だと思います。
またまた「来てよかった～」です。
ここで疲れた体に温かいお茶と甘味のおやつ。
わかってるなー。
ゆっくりカヌーで川を進みながら(この行き帰りのカヌーも最高です。カヌーから見る西表島の景色も素晴らしい！)
主人と「また来たいな〜」って話になりました。自然に癒されてデトックス。最高にスッキリします。都会に疲れた方にオススメです。

I had an amazing experience with Ami, who guided us thoroughly. I love fish, but as someone who appreciates landscapes, I was completely satisfied with the cliff tour. While paddling the canoe, I learned about fish, herons, the terrain, and caves, and the 90 minutes flew by. I was truly satisfied! I've used other shops in Okinawa, but at this shop, they provide kayaks with backrests. Thanks to that, I didn't feel tired at all and could focus on the scenery. However, since the morning course ended an hour before the café opened, I had to give up on using the café this time. Next time I visit Okinawa, I would love to stop by the shop again. I want to enjoy both kayaking and the café then! Thank you so much!

担当して頂いた亜美さんに、ガッツリ、ガイドして頂きました。魚ももちろん好きなのですが地形派の私としては大満足の絶壁ツアー。カヌーを漕ぎながら魚やサギ、地形や洞窟のことなども教えて頂き、あっという間の90分。まさに大満足！　沖縄の他のショップも利用したことがあるのですが、アルガイドさんではカヤックに背もたれを付けて貰えます。おかげさまで疲れ知らず。景色に集中することが出来ました。ただ朝イチのコースのためにカフェの営業時間1時間前に終了してしまったので、今回はカフェの利用はあきらめました。次回、沖縄へ遊びに行く時には、またショップにお邪魔させて頂きたいと思います。その時はカヤック＆カフェを堪能したいです♡ 本当にありがとうございました！

On our first day in Okinawa, we chose a hotel with a pick-up service since we didn't have a rental car. There were two sessions, morning and afternoon, and we participated in the afternoon course from the very first day.

We had lunch on Kokusai Street, and they picked us up to take us to the hotel. From the first day, we went snorkeling in the beautiful Kerama Blue sea. There are not many plans that include pick-up service, so it was a very fulfilling experience.

There were plenty of staff members, and they all seemed to be working hard. The color of the sea was a beautiful emerald green, and just seeing that lifted our spirits. We saw a turtle swimming gracefully, and after a while, another turtle appeared.

There weren't as many fish as we expected, and since there was no feeding, it didn't feel like there were a lot of fish. It was just average. Since it was a weekday in May, the staff wasn't too busy, and everyone seemed to be having fun. They encouraged us to jump off the boat until it was time to depart, and everyone looked like they were enjoying themselves on the rubber boat.

On the way back, we were tired from the first day, so I slept on the high-speed boat to Naha for about 20 minutes. It was very convenient to be dropped off at the hotel again, and it was a great experience.

沖縄初日にレンタカーなしの私達はホテルまで送迎付きということで選びました。午前、午後と二回あり、初日から、午後コ－スで参加しました。
国際通りで昼ご飯食べ、ホテルまで迎えに来てくれて、初日から慶良間ブル-
の海でシュノ－ケルでした。送迎してくれるプランは少ないのでとても充実したプランがたてれます。
スタッフもたくさんいて、皆一生懸命働いてる感じがしました。
海の色はエメラルド色で綺麗で、この色が見れただけでテンションあがります。亀が優雅に泳いでいました。しばらくすると又違う亀が泳いでいました。
魚はそんなに、思ってたほどいなくて、餌付けもないので魚がすごいて感じはなかったです。普通です。
５月の平日なのでスタッフさんも忙しくないので、皆楽しそうに船が出るまで船から飛び込んでいいですよ～ゴムボ－トに乗って皆楽しそうに仲良さそうでした。
帰りは初日で疲れもあるので、那覇まで２０分高速船で寝ていました。
帰りもホテルまで送ってもらえてラクチンでとても良かったです。

I had so much fun. I will do this again. The Okinawans were so sweet, spoke mainly Japanese but everything was great with communicating.

On May 26, 2018 (Saturday), my son (22 years old) and I (55 years old) participated in the "Mangrove Canoeing + Trekking at Pinai Sara Falls & Above - A Jungle Adventure with Great Facilities and a Warm Lunch."

This was our first trip to Okinawa, and we had just arrived in Ishigaki Island two days prior. We were still unfamiliar with the area around the Ishigaki Island ferry terminal and, without having adjusted to the sudden 34-degree subtropical climate, we decided to head towards our final destination for this trip, Iriomote Island.

As we arrived at Uehara Port, filled with both anxiety and excitement, we immediately spotted a young man holding a "Windmill" sign. When we introduced ourselves, he greeted us with a big smile and said, "Yes, this way please."

From the first impression of this guide, I sensed that this tour would surely be amazing. Once we got into the car, the guide chatted with us as if we were old acquaintances, sharing various personal stories and information.

Upon arriving at the Windmill office, he quickly prepared boots and life jackets for us. His efficiency gave us the impression that the tour would be safe and secure.

When we reached the canoe launch site, we finally entered the mangroves of Iriomote. Along the way, the guide shared his extensive knowledge about the types of mangroves, their ecology, and other plants, which was truly impressive.

After getting off the canoe, during the trekking portion, we were amazed by his knowledge about the creatures of Iriomote, from lizards and turtles to gobies and flying foxes, as well as butterflies and longhorn beetles. He also shared stories about the time when coal mining existed and the history of Iriomote, never running out of topics to discuss.

When we spotted a Semaru Hako turtle, he was genuinely thrilled, and I could feel that he truly loves Iriomote Island from the bottom of his heart. While enjoying nature together with us tour guests, he was always attentive to our safety. On steep slopes, he carefully instructed us on how to ascend and descend, saying things like, "Start with your right foot and sit down..."

For lunch, he prepared warm Yaeyama soba for us. To treat us to a warm meal, the guide sweatily carried heavy supplies and dishes all the way up to the waterfall. It was incredibly delicious.

Even though it was still May, the temperature was 34 degrees. The guide mentioned that as summer approaches, his days would become physically demanding.

Thanks to our guide, both my son and I had a thoroughly satisfying tour experience. Thank you very much.

２０１８年５月２６日（土）、私（５５歳）と息子（２２歳）は「マングローブカヌー+トレッキング ピナイサーラの滝つぼ＆滝うえ 充実設備とあったかランチが嬉しいジャングル探検」に参加させていただきました。
そもそも、私たち父子二人は今回が初めての沖縄で、２日前に石垣島についたばかり。まだ、石垣島の離島ターミナル辺りしか知らず、いきなり３４度という亜熱帯の気候にも慣れないまま、「とりあえず、今回の旅の最終目的地である西表島を目指そう」ということで、上原港に向かいました。
不安と期待でドキドキしながら上原港に着くと、すぐに「風車」のボードを持った若いお兄さんが目に入りました。こちらの名前を名乗ると、「はい、こちらでございます。」と満面の笑顔で答えてくれました。
もう、このガイドさんの第一印象で、今回のツアーがきっと最高になるだろうと予感ができました。
車に乗り込むと、ガイドさんは、昔からの知り合いのように、あれやこれやと自分のプライベートなことも含めていろいろな話をしてくれました。
風車のオフィスにつくと、てきぱきとブーツやライフジャケットなど準備をしてくれました。この仕事の手際の良さで、ツアーが安全安心であるという印象を持ちました。
カヌーの乗り場まで来ると、いよいよ西表のマングローブに入っていきます。
途中で、途中で、ガイドさんは、マングローブの種類や生態の話、そのほかの植物の解説など、とにかく物知りで驚いてしまいました。
カヌーを降りて、トレッキング時には、トカゲやカメやハゼやオオコウモリの話から蝶やカミキリムシの話まで、西表の生き物についてそれはそれは知識の多さに驚かされました。おまけに炭鉱があった時代の話から、西表の歴史まで次々に話題に事欠きませんでした。
途中でセマルハコガメを見つけた時など、本当に大喜びで、「このガイドさんは、西表島が心の底から大好きなんだな～」と感じました。
我々ツアー客と一緒になって自然を満喫しながらも、我々の安全に対する配慮も常に気を配ってくれました。急な斜面では、「ここは右足からで、おしりをつけて・・・」など、慎重に上り方や降り方を教えてくれました。
お昼には、暖かい八重山そばを作ってくれました。暖かいお昼ご飯をご馳走してくれるために、ガイドさんは滝の上まで食材や食器など重い荷物を汗だくになって運んでくれました。とっても、とってもおいしかったです。
まだ５月なのに気温は３４度。これから夏のシーズンになると、ガイドさんはとても体力的にハードな毎日になるとか。
ガイドさんのおかげで父子ともども大満足なツアーが体験できました。
ありがとうございました。

I have visited Okinawa many times for business trips, but this time I participated in a snorkeling tour by myself for the first time. The instructor kindly and thoroughly taught me how to put on and use the equipment, which made me feel safe entering the sea.

Additionally, I heard that due to weather conditions, we couldn't enter the cave until the day before, but luckily, the weather was good on the day of the tour, and we were able to enter the cave, seeing the beautiful blue cave that lives up to its name.

On the way back from the cave, I was able to feed the fish with the bait (fu) provided by the instructor, and I enjoyed seeing the tropical fish of Okinawa up close. The experience of entering the sea directly instead of from a boat was completely different and amazing.

Thank you to the instructor for taking so many photos and for your thoughtful care. Next time, I would like to visit again with my wife, not for business, but for leisure (maybe this time for diving).

沖縄へは何度も出張で訪問していましたが、今回初めて一人でシュノーケリングツアーに参加しました。
インストラクターの方は、シュノーケリングが初めての私に親切丁寧に装着方法、使用方法を教えていただき安心して海に入ることができました。
また、前日まで、天候の影響で洞窟に入れなかったとのことでしたが、当日の天候は良くラッキーにも入ることができ、名前に違わぬ青い洞窟の最高のスポットを見ることができました。
洞窟から戻る途中に、インストラクターさんからいただいた餌（麩）で餌付けができ、手が届くところで南国沖縄の魚たちが満喫できました。
ボートではなく直接海に入ってみる景色は全然違い最高でした。
インストラクターさん、気づかい所でもたくさんの写真を撮っていただきありがとうございました。
今度は出張時ではなく、プライベートで家内とまた訪問（今度はダイビングかな）したいと思います。

I participated in an experience diving and snorkeling session with my mother! I was a bit worried about whether my mother could dive at her age, but the thorough explanations and the guide's support made us feel very at ease! There was also a foreign instructor who spoke Japanese very well and was quite native-like! Before diving, we were taught breathing techniques, how to use the equipment, and how to enjoy diving on the boat, and we were able to get used to the water by doing a bit of snorkeling first! The guide stayed close to us, and we started diving!! We descended slowly, and the guide checked multiple times to ensure we could equalize our ears, allowing us to relax and dive comfortably! Underwater, the guide held our hands and took us to see clownfish and took many photos as well! I was really happy that the photos could be downloaded for free later! After the diving, we had some free time for snorkeling, and we were given food to feed the fish while snorkeling around the boat! I've done experience diving in various places, but this one had a homey feel, and the guides were very kind! My mother seemed to enjoy it too, and it became a wonderful memory! Thank you very much!

私は母と2人で体験ダイビング＋シュノーケリングに参加しました！母の年齢も少しダイビングが出来るか心配でしたが丁寧な説明や、ガイドさんの対応でとても安心しました！外人のインストラクターさんも居ましたが、日本語が上手でとてもネイティブでした！ダイビングの前に船の上で呼吸法や器具の使い方、ダイビングの楽しみ方など教えて頂き、シュノーケリングを先に少しして水に慣れることが出来ました！ガイドさんがしっかりついてくれて、ダイビングスタート！！下に少しずつ降りていきましたが何度も耳抜きが出来ているか確認してくれて、リラックスして潜ることが出来ました！水中ではずっとガイドさんが手を繋いで泳いでくれてクマノミなどが見えるところに連れてってくれたり、沢山写真も撮ってくれました！写真が後日ダウンロード無料なのもすごく嬉しかったです！ダイビングが終わってからは自由ににシュノーケリングなど出来る時間があり、エサもいただいて、船の周りでシュノーケリングをしました！色々な所で体験ダイビングはしましたが、こちらはアットホームな感じでとてもガイドさんも親切でした！母も楽しかったみたいで、良い思い出になりました！ありがとうございましま！

I participated in the half-day afternoon plan. I drove my own car to the store, but the parking lot location is a bit difficult to find, so I recommend arriving with some extra time. (When I asked, they kindly explained it to me.) I took my time preparing at the store before departure. Just to be safe, I took some motion sickness medication, but there weren't many waves that day, and we arrived at the point about 20 minutes after departure, so I didn't get seasick. As soon as we dove in, the instructor, Corey, suggested we look for turtles, and to my surprise, there were about 5 to 6 turtles resting on the reef! Since it was low tide, we were able to see them up close. The Kerama Blue was impressively clear, and it became a wonderful memory.

午後半日プランに参加しました。
自分の運転する車でお店まで向かったのですが、駐車場の場所が少々分かりにくいので余裕を持って到着されることをお勧めします。（聞いたら丁寧におしえてくださいました。）お店でゆっくり準備をして出発。念のために船酔いの薬を飲みましたが、この日はあまり波もなく、出航から20分くらいでポイントに到着するので酔いませんでした。潜ってすぐにインストラクターのコリーさんが、亀がいるか見てみましょうと言って案内してくれたところになんと！5～6匹の亀がリーフで休憩していました！！干潮の時間もあって、近くで見ることができました。慶良間ブルーもさすが透明度もよく、とてもいい思い出になりました。

For someone like me who usually enjoys free diving and spear fishing while riding a jet ski, participating in group activities while wearing a life jacket is not my thing. However, I wanted to see sea turtles, so I decided to book a tour guide for the first time. For me, it would be pointless if I couldn't see the sea turtles. Still, I trusted the words about visiting spots where we could see them and joined the tour. As I followed the guide underwater, I started to see them… there were so many! Five or six of them lounging on the coral reef (laughs). I even encountered a sea turtle swimming gracefully! This was truly moving! It will definitely be a lifelong memory! Thank you so much! Also, the guide was super handsome! I mean, he looked more like a model from an overseas brand than just handsome (laughs).

普段から素潜りやスピアフィッシングにジェットスキーを楽しんでる自分にとって、ライフジャケットを着た団体行動は苦手。それでも「ウミガメ」が見たくて、はじめてツアーガイドを申し込んでみた。なので、自分にとって「ウミガメ」が見れなきゃ全く意味がない。しかし、ウミガメの見れるポイントを周るって言葉を信じて同行。そして海の中でガイドさんに導かれるまま、進んで行くと…いるわ、いるわ！5匹も6匹も海底の珊瑚礁にゴロゴロと（笑）。そして優雅に泳ぐウミガメにも遭遇！これには、本当に感動した！一生の思い出になること間違いない！本当にありがとう！あと、ガイドさんがメッチャ、イケメン！てゆうか、イケメンというより海外ブランドのモデルに近いかな（笑）。

At first, I was anxious as a beginner in outdoor activities, but I felt reassured because they lent me shoes and a waterproof bag, allowing me to participate comfortably.

The guide was full of interesting topics and shared a lot of knowledge about the island as well as information about izakayas, making our trekking experience enjoyable without running out of conversation. The journey to Pinai Sara Falls was harder than I expected, but the view from the top of the waterfall was breathtaking!

My wife really enjoyed the canoeing and said it was the most fun part of our honeymoon.

Overall, the guide was very attentive and helpful, making it easy to join in, so I highly recommend it!

最初はアウトドア初心者なので不安でしたが、靴や防水バッグまで貸してもらえたので安心して参加できました。

ガイドさんは話題が豊富で島の知識から居酒屋の情報までいろいろ教えてもらえ、話題も尽きることなく楽しくトレッキングできました。
ピナイサーラの滝までの道のりは思っていたよりハードでしたが、滝の上からの景色は絶景でした！

またカヌーは嫁が大変気に入り、新婚旅行で一番楽しかったと満足してくれました。

とにかくガイドさんが懇切丁寧に対応してくれて、気軽に参加できるのでとてもオススメです！

I participated in the tour on May 19, 2018.

We were staying in Ishigaki Island, so we took a high-speed ferry from the Ishigaki Island Terminal at 8:30 to Uehara Port on Iriomote Island. Upon arrival at Uehara Port, we were greeted and transported by car.

There were many foreign participants in the tour, which made us a bit worried since we only speak Japanese, but we had no concerns at all as the foreign guests were on a separate itinerary.

Canoeing:
I’m not very athletic and had trouble getting used to canoeing, which caused some inconvenience to others, but our guide, "Dai-chan," supported us, allowing me to enjoy it 200%! It was a very rare experience to see the mangroves up close while canoeing!

Trekking (Pinaisara Falls Summit):
There were a few steep climbs and challenging spots, but they were manageable. (I think anyone who can normally go up and down stairs will be fine.) Our guide, "Dai-chan," provided fun and easy-to-understand explanations at various points and when we encountered wildlife, which made it easy to listen. The Okinawa soba we had at the top of the falls was hearty, delicious, and very satisfying.

Pinaisara Falls (the basin):
We had the option to go to the basin or not, but I believe everyone should definitely go. The view of the falls from below was spectacular, and playing in the basin was a lot of fun, creating wonderful memories. The warm tea and the unique rice cake snacks after playing in the basin were a great touch of hospitality.

Finally…
This was our first time in Iriomote Island, but thanks to the amazing location, activities, and great guides, it was an experience worth more than the price. At first, I thought, "Are the other reviewers really giving it five stars? Isn’t that exaggerated?" but it truly deserves more than five stars. Thank you for the valuable experiences and memories.

2018/5/19にツアーに参加させていただきました。

私どもは、石垣島に滞在していたので、8:30に離島ターミナルから高速船に乗って西表島の上原港へ向かいました。
上原港でお出迎えがあり、車で送迎。

ツアーには外国籍の方も多々いて、日本語以外を話せない私たちには、少し心配でしたが、外国籍の方々とは別行動でしたので、まったく心配ありませんでした。

カヌー：
運動音痴で、カヌー操作がなかなか慣れず、皆さんに迷惑をおかけしてしまいましたが、担当ガイドの"大ちゃん"がサポートしてくれたので、200%楽しむことができました！
マングローブを目の前で、しかもカヌーで観れたのは、非常に貴重な体験でした！

トレッキング（ピナイサーラの滝の頂上）：
少しだけ急登や難所がありましたが問題ありませんでした。（普通に階段の登り降りができれば、 大丈夫だと思います）
色々なポイント説明や、生き物などに遭遇した時も、担当スタッフである"大ちゃん"が、楽しく・わかりやすく説明してくれたので、 安心して聞けました。
滝の上で食べた ソーキソバは、ボリューム満点で、味もよくて、大満足でした。

ピナイサーラの滝（滝つぼ）：
滝つぼまで、行くか／行かないか選択できましたが、絶対に行くべきだと思いました。
下から見上げる滝も壮観で、滝つぼ遊びも、とても楽しく、最高の思い出になりました。
滝つぼ遊び後の、あたたか～いお茶と、珍しいお餅のお菓子も、すごく良い「おもてなし」でした。

最後に…
私たちは、初めての西表島でしたが、最高のロケーション、アクティビティー、良きガイドさん達のおかげで、お値段以上の体験でした。
最初、ほかのレビュアーさん達が★5個ばかりなので「ほんとかな？大げさじゃないの？」って思っていましたが、★5個では足りないぐらいです。
貴重な体験や思い出をありがとうございました。

I participated with my two elementary school children and my husband. It was the children's first time snorkeling, but they received kind instruction and were able to enjoy it. The Blue Cave was also amazing, and the kids were very excited about the fish swimming around them. I would like to go again. The staff from b-nature who guided us were very kind and fun, and they took many wonderful photos. I would like to rely on them again when I go to Okinawa next time.

小学生2人と夫と参加しました。シュノーケリングは子供達2人共初めてでしたが、親切にレクチャーしていただき、楽しむことができました。青の洞窟も素晴らしかったのですが、子供達が自分の周りを泳ぐ魚に大興奮。また行きたいと思います。ガイドをしていただいたb-natureさんのスタッフもとても親切で面白く、素敵な写真をたくさん撮っていただきました。
今度沖縄へ行く時もお世話になりたいです。

After gathering, we first received a canoeing lecture and then set off. Since it was my second time canoeing, I gradually got the hang of it and had a lot of fun. It went by in a flash as we saw various creatures and mangroves.

I was worried about my physical strength before participating in the jungle trekking, but I was able to make it to the top. Since it had rained beforehand, the waterfall had a lot of water and was quite impressive. It wasn't too hot, and I was able to participate on a really nice day.

The sunlight shining through the jungle was very beautiful and memorable. I brought back a mangrove seed that the guide found for us. I will cherish it and take care of it as a memory!

集合後にまずはカヌーのレクチャーを受けて、出発しました。カヌーは2度目だったのでだんだんと思うように操作出来るようになって楽しかったです。色々な生き物やマングローブを見ながらであっという間でした。
ジャングルトレッキングは、参加前は体力に自信がなく心配でしたが、登りきることができました。
雨が降った後だったので滝の水量もあり迫力がありました。そこまで暑すぎずにとってもいい日に参加できました。
ジャングルにキラキラと射し込む太陽の光がとても綺麗で印象的です。
ガイドさんがみつけてくれたマングローブの種を持ち帰りました。思い出に大切に育てます！

The weather was nice, and the waves were calm, which made it enjoyable. If we could have extended the time and distance to visit various places, it would have felt like a true adventure. Also, I requested some photos, but there was a bias in who was captured, so I thought it would have been better if everyone had been included more evenly. I would love to do it again if the opportunity arises.

天気も良く、波も穏やかで楽しかったです。もっと時間を長くして距離を伸ばしていろんな所に行けたら文字通り冒険した感じがあったと思います。
また、写真をお願いしましたが、映ってる人に偏りがあったのでまんべんなく映ってたらもっと良かったなぁと思いました。機会があればまたやりたいです。

I had my first snorkeling experience this time. On the day of the event, the wind was strong and there were waves, so many participants experienced seasickness. I also started with seasickness, and the smell of the rubber from the goggles and the gasoline from the boat made me feel nauseous. However, the underwater view I managed to peek at was incredibly beautiful, and the coral reefs were mesmerizing. I can't help but regret that I could have enjoyed it more if it weren't for the seasickness. I think it's best for anyone who isn't very accustomed to it to take motion sickness medication beforehand. The staff were all very friendly. Our guide was especially considerate of us who were seasick and was very kind. If I have the opportunity, I would like to try again.

今回シュノーケリングを初体験させていただきました。当日は風が強く、波にうねりもあったため参加者に船酔いの方が多かったです。私も船酔いから始まり、ゴーグルのゴムの臭い、船のガソリンの臭いと吐き気が止まりませんでした。それでも頑張って覗いた海の中はとても綺麗で、サンゴ礁が幻想的でした。船酔いさえなければもっと楽しめたのにと悔やむばかりです。余程慣れている方以外は必ず酔い止めを飲んでいった方がいいと思います。スタッフの方は皆さん気さくな方ばかりでした。私たちの担当の方は船酔いした私たちにとても気を使ってくれて優しかったです。機会があればもう１度チャレンジしたいと思います

I used this service during my trip to Okinawa in the second half of Golden Week! I had never been to the Kerama Islands before, and I was amazed by the beauty of the sea as soon as we arrived at the snorkeling spot. Snorkeling was a lot of fun, and I even got to feed the fish! There were so many fish, and I thought I would like to try diving next time. The instructor was very kind, and after we finished, I was able to take a shower right away, so I am very satisfied! I definitely want to use this service again when I go to Okinawa. Thank you very much!

ゴールデンウィーク後半に、沖縄に旅行に行った際に利用させてもらいました！慶良間諸島には行ったことがなく、シュノーケル地点についた時点で、海の綺麗さに感動しました★シュノーケルもとてもたのしく、魚に餌やりなどもさせていただけました！魚がたくさんいて、次はダイビングにも参加してみたいと思いました。インストラクターさんもとても優しく、終わった後はシャワーもすぐに浴びれたので、大変満足しております！また沖縄に行った際は是非利用させていただきたいとおもいます。ありがとうございました。

Highly recommend! It was fantastic and our guide was better than the others that were there!!

Canoeing in the mangroves, trekking to the top of Pinai Sara Falls, and exploring the base of the waterfall. It was an exciting day filled with first experiences.

The trekking was honestly quite challenging, and I thought I might not make it, but our guide carefully checked on everyone's condition and took breaks, so I managed to reach the top. Eating Yaeyama soba while enjoying the breathtaking view was exceptional.

On the way back, I was a bit worried about whether I would be okay, but thanks to our guide's entertaining stories about Iriomote Island, I was able to enjoy the descent. Canoeing was also a first for me, but surprisingly, I handled it quite well.

マングローブでのカヌー、ピナイサーラの滝上、滝壺トレッキング。どれもこれも初体験ばかりで興奮の一日でした。
トレッキングは正直無理かもと思うほど険しい道のりでしたが、ガイドさんが参加者の体調を細かく伺いながら休憩をとってくれたので、なんとか登り切ることが出来ました。絶景を眺めながら食べる八重山そばは格別でした。
帰り道も正直しんどいな、大丈夫かなと少しだけ不安でしたが、ガイドさんの面白い西表島あるあるお話のお陰で、楽しく下山出来ました。
カヌーも初体験でしたが操作は以外と大丈夫でした。

I experienced the half-day snorkeling course from 1 PM! It drizzled in the morning, but the weather cleared up, and I was able to see beautiful fish! The instructors were friendly and kind, so I think even beginners can feel comfortable participating. There is a shower room with warm water on the boat, but the shower is taken with the door open. There were also foreign guests, which made it feel like a real travel experience! I want to try the full-day course next time!

13時～の半日シュノーケルコースを体験！
午前中は雨がぱらついていましたが、天気も回復しきれいな魚たちに会うことができました！
インストラクターの方も気さくで親切な方たちでしたので、初めての方も安心して体験できるかと思います。
船内は温水の出るシャワールームもありますが、ドアを空けたままシャワーになります。
外国の方もいらっしゃったり、旅行にきた雰囲気を実感できました！
今度は１日コースも行きたいと思ってます！

On the way back from Kerama to Tomari Port, the waves were a bit high, and the boat was jumping several times, causing some screams. My companion got seasick, but there didn't seem to be any concern for that.

At the Kerama point, I was satisfied to see sea turtles and enjoyed the underwater experience. However, the person who explained things didn't seem very knowledgeable, so I didn't quite understand how to enjoy each point.

The staff were cheerful and easy to talk to, so I would like to participate again if I have the chance. I thought it would be nice if they could take dedicated photos for us.

Thank you for the fun memories!

慶良間から泊港までの帰り少し高波だった性か何度もジャンプしながらの運航で悲鳴が上がってました。連れが船酔いしていましたが気にかける様子はありませんでした。
慶良間のポイントはウミガメにも会えて満足して海中を楽しめました。
説明してくれた方があまり詳しくなかったのか各ポイントの楽しみ方がよくわかりませんでした。
スタッフの方々は明るく話しやすい感じだったのでまた機会があれば参加したいです。
写真を専属して撮って下さると嬉しいなって帰ってきてから思いました。
楽しい思い出ありがとうございました。

We participated as a family of three on May 2nd. The sea was really beautiful, probably due to the good weather, and we were amazed to see so many fish. It was our first time for my sixth-grade son, my husband, and me, and we had some worries, but the guide was very kind and cheerful, which made it a lot of fun! My child said this was the most enjoyable part of our trip to Okinawa. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much! 😊

5/2に家族３人で参加しました。
海は天候も良かったせいか、本当にキレイで魚もたくさん見れて感動しました。
小6の息子、主人、私も初めてで不安もありましたがガイドのお兄さんに親切に教えて頂き、明るい方だったのでとても楽しめました‼
子供も今回の沖縄旅行で一番楽しかったそうです。いい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました☺

One staff member for every 4 to 5 people took photos for us, provided guidance and advice, and we had a great time.

They were considerate, and we were able to enjoy ourselves comfortably. It was a tour I would recommend to my friends.

I have visited Okinawa several times, but I wanted to try snorkeling in the Kerama Islands for the first time, so I joined a tour. Unfortunately, due to bad weather on the day, we had to change our snorkeling location to near the main island instead of the planned spot, which was disappointing. However, I was still able to see various fish and corals in the waters around the main island. It was also nice that I could swim relatively freely. The guides were all very kind. I understand it was due to the weather, but since we couldn't go to the Kerama Islands, I lowered my rating. I hope to try again when I come back to Okinawa.

沖縄は何度か訪れたことがありますが、初めて慶良間諸島でシュノーケリングしたいと思いツアーに参加させて頂きました。
当日天候が悪く、予定していたポイントではなく本島の近くでのシュノーケルに変更になってしまい残念でしたが、本島の海でも色々なお魚やサンゴを見ることができました。
わりと自由に泳がことができたのもよかったです。
ガイドの方もみんな親切でした。
天候のせいでしょうがないとは思いますが、慶良間諸島行けなかったので評価下げさせてもらいました。
また沖縄に来た時はリベンジしたいと思います。

This is a highly recommended tour for those who are thinking about going to Okinawa and want to enjoy the sea.

We had been wanting to swim in the waters of Okinawa for a long time, so we signed up for this tour that offers both snorkeling and diving.

The weather on the day we participated was great, and the view from the boat heading to the snorkeling spots was beautiful, with a pleasant breeze. During snorkeling, the water temperature was lower than we expected, and it took some time to get used to it, but just by putting our faces in the water, we could see colorful fish, and we were amazed by the clarity of the ocean! In diving, we were able to swim much closer to the fish and coral than during snorkeling, experiencing a world we usually can't see! We were able to swim in the sea longer than we had anticipated, so we were very satisfied.

The only downside was that my companion, who took motion sickness medication beforehand, still got seasick. The staff were very kind and helpful, but since the boat does sway, I recommend that anyone who tends to get motion sickness take medication in advance.

We also had photos taken underwater, and the service was excellent, making for wonderful memories in Okinawa! If I have the chance to go to Okinawa again, I would like to choose the same company's diving tour!

これから、沖縄へ行って、海に入りたいと考えている方には大変オススメのツアーです。

私たちは前々から沖縄の海で泳ぎたいと思っており、シュノーケリングとダイビングが一緒にできるこのツアーに申し込みをしました。

参加した日は天気が良く、ポイントまで向かう船からの眺めもとても綺麗で、風も気持ちよかったです。
シュノーケリングでは、思ったよりも水温が低く、慣れるまでに時間がかかりましたが、水面に顔をつけるだけで色とりどりの魚が見え、海の透明度に感激しました！
ダイビングでは、シュノーケリングの時よりも魚やサンゴに近い距離で泳ぐことができ、普段見ることのできない世界を体験できました！
予想していた時間よりも長く海を泳げたので、とても満足しています。

唯一、一緒に参加した彼は、事前に酔い止めを飲んでいましたが、船酔いをしていました。スタッフの方には親切に対応していただき、とても助かりましたが、船の上は揺れるので、これから参加する方で乗り物酔いする人は、必ず事前に酔い止めを飲んで行くことをおすすめします。

海の中での写真も撮っていただけ、サービスも充実しており、沖縄での良い思い出になりました！また沖縄に行く機会があれば、同社のダイビングツアーを選びたいと思います！

Since it was April, I thought it might not be possible to see anything, but I managed to catch a glimpse. Various companies' boats seemed to be communicating with each other, and the boat that spotted the whale was in contact with the other boats, so we were able to encounter it.

On the day of the tour, I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be clear and sunny, which put me in a great mood. From the welcome at the hotel to the guidance and instructions in the shop, everything was smooth and I felt at ease while changing and boarding the boat. We arrived at the point about 20 minutes after departing from the port! Before we arrived, we received thorough explanations of safety precautions and how to use the equipment, which made me feel reassured. We entered the water in groups! Thanks to the leader's solid guidance, we were able to start snorkeling with confidence! They provided explanations about the coral reefs and the fish we were swimming with, keeping us engaged at each point. The clear weather and high visibility allowed us to see schools of tropical fish, which was truly moving! They constantly checked on our well-being and even took a break for us, for which I am grateful. After the tour, we were able to use the shower on the boat right away, and there were changing rooms prepared, which made me feel secure. I definitely want to participate in this tour again. Thank you very much!

当日は天候が心配でしたが、快晴でしたので気分よく臨めました。ホテルまでの出迎えから、ショップ内での案内、指示等スムーズで安心して着替えが出来て船に乗り込むことが出来ました。港を出発して約20分位でポイントに到着！到着前に注意事項や器具の使い方等を丁寧に説明して頂き安心しました。グループに分かれて入水！リーダーがしっかりとリード して頂いたお陰で、安心してシュノーケリングスタート！珊瑚礁の説明、泳いでいる魚の説明など、私達を飽きさせることなくポイント毎に解説して頂きました。晴天で透明度も高く熱帯魚の群れも見ることができ感動しました！私達の体調を常に確認して頂き、一度休憩をいれて頂き感謝です。終了後、船内でシャワーをすぐに利用でき、更衣室も準備されており安心できました。またぜひツアーに参加したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

I was very grateful for the shuttle service since I didn't rent a car. The staff at the shop were also kind to my child, which was great!

レンタカーを借りていなかったため、送迎付きはとてもありがたかったです。ショップの人も子供に親切にしてくださりよかったです！

It was a short two-day trip, but I wanted to fully experience the nature of Iriomote Island, so I joined this tour. Canoeing, which was a first for me, was quite challenging to navigate straight, but as long as I took my time and corrected my course while stopping, it was manageable. While paddling, I could feel the wind and enjoy the scent of flowers blooming in the forest and the sounds of birds while walking to the waterfall. Not only did I get to see the magnificent nature, but I was also excited to spot various butterflies, beautiful dragonflies, colorful wild lizards, and cute fish and crabs along the riverbank. The guide and other participants were kind, making it a great experience.

Additionally, before the tour started, the guide recommended that we bring 1.5 liters of drinks for two people or 1 liter per person. I usually don't drink much water, but I found that I consumed more than I expected. There were frequent breaks for hydration during the tour. The weather on the day of the tour was cloudy, typical for just before summer, but since it will get hotter, I think it's a good idea to bring plenty of drinks.

１泊２日の短い旅行でしたが、西表島の自然をめいいっぱい体験したくてこのツアーに参加しました。初体験のカヌーは、まっすぐ進むのがなかなか難しかったのですが、焦らず止まりながら軌道修正しながら進めば大丈夫でした。カヌーに乗りながら風を感じたり、滝へ歩いている途中に森に咲く花の匂いや鳥の声を感じることができました。壮大な自然だけでなく、行く先々でさまざまな蝶々や綺麗な川トンボ、色鮮やかな野生のトカゲ、川辺に住むかわいい動作の魚やカニを見れたのがとてもワクワクしました。ガイドさんもほかの参加者も親切でいい体験になりました。
あと、ツアー開始前の準備時に飲み物は二人で1.5リットル、もしくは１人１リットルをガイドさんから推奨されました。普段あまり水分を摂らないのですが予想以上に飲み物が減りました。ツアー中頻繁に水分補給の時間は設けてくれていました。ツアー当日は夏本番前の曇りがちの天候でしたが、これから暑くなるので飲み物は多めに持っていくのが良いかと思います。
