It had been a while since I went snorkeling, but the weather was great and the three locations offered completely different views, which was nice. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see any sea turtles this time. There were many participants, but the staff provided support while paying attention to safety.久々のシュノーケリングでしたが、天気もよく3箇所全く違う景色で良かったです 今回はウミガメを見ることができなかったので残念です 参加者が多かったですがスタッフも安全に注意を払いながらサポートしてくれました

It was our first time at the beach with my little son. There were some scary moments, but it became an unforgettable experience.

初シュノーケル家族
It was our first trip to Okinawa, and we were all really looking forward to the snorkeling tour as a family. However, the weather was bad on the day of the tour, and the boat was rocking quite a bit, making it a tough environment for small children. I ended up feeling seasick, and my son started crying, which made it very disappointing that we couldn't enjoy the ocean together for his first time.

However, the weather was bad on the day of the tour, and the boat was rocking quite a bit, making it a tough environment for small children. I ended up feeling seasick, and my son started crying, which made it very disappointing that we couldn't enjoy the ocean together for his first time.
I was also anxious because they only asked for our shoe sizes and provided almost no explanation on how to use the equipment or swim. Although they advertised that it was suitable for children from 3 years old and that even those who are not good at swimming would be fine, I felt that the content was a bit challenging for small children and beginners.
Additionally, the transparent floatation device mentioned in the rental section was not available. Instead, we received a regular black float. I regretted not preparing something for my son to see underwater.
There was a staff member who was very kind and attentive to my son, and I am truly grateful to them. However, I was shocked and frightened when another staff member shouted, "Don't just focus on one family! The parents are here, so leave it to them!" This was very surprising and disheartening, especially since it was our first time participating and there were many things we didn’t understand.
Furthermore, there was a slightly scary moment while changing. I was changing in the only place where the door could close, and another woman was being urged by a staff member to "hurry up and change" and "change inside." If she had opened the door, I would have been exposed, but thankfully, that woman refused and said "NO," which saved me. I am truly grateful for her courage at that moment.
I understand that there are aspects like the weather and sea conditions that cannot be helped. However, I believe that if there had been a bit more consideration for beginners and families with children, along with better explanations and support regarding safety and privacy, the overall impression would have been significantly different.
I wrote this review with the hope that others who are participating for the first time with small children will be able to enjoy it with peace of mind. I sincerely thank the staff who treated us kindly, the captain, and all the participants who were on board with us. 初めての沖縄旅行で、家族みんなでとても楽しみにしていたシュノーケリングツアーでした。 当日は天候が悪く、船の揺れがとても強くて、小さな子どもにはかなり厳しい環境でした。私自身も船酔いしてしまい、息子は泣いてしまって、初めての海を楽しませてあげられなかったのがとても残念でした。
The weather was great, the points were all good, and I even got to see sea turtles; it was the best. Thank you very much. However, when I applied for this tour, I had to submit documents regarding health management, but I was asked to fill out the same documents again on-site. I received a confirmation email with the same attachments, but I was told that I didn't receive anything from Veltra, so I'm wondering what's going on...天気にも恵まれ、ポイントもどこも良く、またウミガメも見れ、最高でした。 ありがとうございました。が、 本件申し込みの際、体調管理等の書類を作成提出の上のツアーでしたが、現場にて同じ書類を書かされました。同じものを添付の上確認のメールをもらいましたが、ベルトラさんからはもらっていないとの事でどうなっているのかなぁと・・・？
