This time, I participated in snorkeling. There were many foreign visitors, which shows its popularity. I was able to fully enjoy the Kerama Blue. Next time, I would like to join for an introductory diving experience.

今回はシュノーケリングで参加させていただきました。外国の方々が多く、人気のほどがわかります。慶良間ブルーを満喫できました。次回は体験ダイビングで参加させていただきたいと思います。

Due to bad weather, we couldn't do snorkeling and SUP at the planned location, but they suggested an alternative spot. As a result, we unexpectedly got to see sea turtles, which made us very happy. The SUP instructor was a really funny guy, so we were never bored. It was a lot of fun.

悪天候で予定のポイントでのシュノーケルとSUPが出来ませんでしたが、別ポイントでの開催を提案して頂きました。結果、予定外にウミガメにも会うこともできとても満足です。SUPのインストラクターのお兄さんがとても面白い方だったので全く退屈しませんでした。とても楽しかったです。

It was my first time snorkeling out at sea on a boat, and I was a bit scared, but wearing a life jacket gave me a sense of security, allowing me to enjoy snorkeling.

Additionally, we had a great time parasailing as a family, and the view of the ocean from above was amazing.

So many fish gathered around, and during feeding, they nibbled at my fingers! It was a fantastic first experience!

船で沖に出て行くシュノーケルは初めてで怖さもあったのですが、ライフジャケットを着てできたので沈まない安心感の中、シュノーケル楽しめました。
また、パラセーリングも家族で楽しめて上空からの海の景色は最高でした。
魚がたくさん集まってきて、餌やりでは指をパクパクされるほど。初めての体験でした！

The banana boat and snorkeling were both amazing! The cold water provided was a great help! The staff were very kind, and I had a wonderful time. I want to participate again! Thank you! 😊

バナナボートもシュノーケルもすごく良かったです！冷たい水も用意されてて、助かりました！
スタッフの方もとても親切で、楽しい時間が過ごせました。
また参加したいです！
ありがとうございました😊

I had planned a trip to visit the Blue Cave, but unfortunately, the tour was canceled the day before, and I was considering canceling my plans. However, since I was already there, I decided to participate in the changed sea turtle snorkeling tour! Thanks to our guide, Soma, I had an unexpectedly fun snorkeling experience. Moreover, I got to encounter sea turtles and swam around excitedly! I also had many wonderful photos taken, making it a fantastic memory!

青の洞窟に行きたくて計画した旅行でしたが残念ながら前日にツアー中止になってしまいキャンセルしようかと思ってました。
でもせっかくなので変更になったウミガメシュノーケリングに参加してみました！
ガイドの『そーまっするさん』のおかげで期待以上に楽しいシュノーケリングを体験👍
しかもウミガメにも遭遇できて夢中で泳ぎまくりました！
素敵な写真もたくさん撮っていただけて最高な思い出になりました😆

The first thing that caught my eye was the strong mangrove forest with its deeply rooted trees. The countless roots stretching out from the mud looked like living sculptures, and I felt the resilience of nature. As I paddled along the water's surface, branches and leaves spread out on both sides, making it feel like I was rowing through a green tunnel. The breeze was gentle, and every time I looked up at the sky, the bright blue and white clouds were stunning.

The guide was really kind, and their explanations were clear and interesting! They talked about the nature and wildlife of Iriomote Island in a fun way, providing not just beautiful scenery but also plenty of learning opportunities. I felt a sense of security, which allowed me to relax and enjoy canoeing even as a first-timer.

As I glided over the calm water, I was enveloped in a feeling of "time flowing slowly," something I can't experience in my daily life, and I felt truly refreshed. Being healed by the energy of nature and encountering views that can only be seen here was a truly special experience.

The great nature of Iriomote Island was amazing! I want to go again! ^_^

最初に目に飛び込んできたのは、力強く根を張ったマングローブの森。泥の中から無数に伸びる根っこはまるで生きている彫刻みたいで、自然のたくましさを感じました。水面を進んでいくと、両脇から覆いかぶさるように枝葉が広がって、まるで緑のトンネルの中を漕いでいるみたい。風も穏やかで、時々空を見上げると真っ青な空と白い雲が映えて最高でした。

ガイドさんも本当に親切で、説明が分かりやすくておもしろい！西表島の自然や生き物のことを楽しく話してくれて、景色だけじゃなく学びもいっぱいありました。安心感もあって、初めてでもリラックスしてカヌーを楽しめました。

静かな水面をすべるように進んでいくと、普段の生活では味わえない“時間がゆっくり流れる感覚”に包まれて、心からリフレッシュできました。自然のエネルギーに癒されながら、ここでしか見られない景色に出会えたのは本当に特別な体験。

西表島の大自然、最高でした！また行きたいです^_^‎

I was able to go snorkeling in the clear sea, swimming with fish and seeing sea turtles! During parasailing, I rented a GoPro and took some great photos! It was fun!

透き通った海でシュノーケリングして魚と泳いだりウミガメ見たりできました！パラセーリングではGoProを借りていい写真が撮れました！楽しかったです

I participated in a SUP and snorkeling session that ended in the morning at the beginning of September, when the weather can be quite changeable. The weather was nice, and during low tide, the sea sparkled, making the coral visible up close. I struggled to keep up with the SUP until I got the hang of it, but since it was early in the morning, there were few people around, and I was able to jump into the sea and enjoy a refreshing time.

I had a hard time finding a turtle while snorkeling and thought I might not see one, but I kept swimming. Thanks to the instructor who didn’t give up searching, I was finally able to meet a turtle leisurely eating at the end.

Since I had arranged for transportation, getting around was easy, and I got to hear interesting stories about island life and was recommended some delicious places to eat. I had some anxiety about being back in the sea after a long time, but from start to finish, Ricky's smile encouraged me, and my family was able to have a great time!

天候が変わりやすい9月頭に午前中で終わるSUPとシュノーケリングに参加しました。天気もよく、干潮で海がキラキラと珊瑚が近い距離に見えました。SUPは慣れるまでついてくのに必死だったけど、朝イチだったので人も少なく、海に飛び込んだり気持ちのいい時間を過ごせました。シュノーケリングはなかなか亀さんが見つからず、見れないかなーと思ってましたが、ひたすら泳ぐ泳ぐ。お姉さんが諦めずに探してくれたおかげで最後にのんびり食事中の亀さんに会うことができました。
今回は送迎をお願いしてたので移動も楽に、車内では島の暮らしや、いろんな面白い話を聞かせてもらったり、美味しいお店も教えてもらえました。久しぶりの海に不安があったけど、最初から最後まで担当のリッキーの笑顔に励まされ家族で楽しむことができました！

I had a valuable experience with various activities in the beautiful sea! The marine sports were fun, and I'm glad I participated in this tour! The included transportation was also very convenient. I would love to join this tour again.

綺麗な海で貴重な体験色々ができました！マリンスポーツも楽しく、このツアーに参加できて良かったです！送迎付きなのもかなり便利。またこのツアーに参加したいです。

Thanks to the polite guidance of the staff, I was able to enjoy both canoeing and snorkeling for a whole day, even as a beginner! I highly recommend it!

ガイドな方々の丁寧な案内で、カヌー・シュノーケリング共に初心者でしたが1日楽しめました！おすすめです！

シュノーケリングと飛行中に撮った写真のリンクをいただけますか？

Can I get the photos link？
That you took for us when we are snorkeling and flying.

It was my first time snorkeling, and the explanations were thorough. Everyone was kind, and it was a really great tour! I got to see beautiful coral reefs, and there was free time, which made it so much fun. The price also felt very reasonable! Highly recommended!

初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、ご説明も丁寧にしてくださり、皆さん優しくてとても良いツアーでした‼︎
とても綺麗な珊瑚礁も見れて、フリータイムもありすごく楽しむことができました。
お値段もお安く感じます！おすすめ‼️

I had a great time snorkeling in a beautiful sea with lots of fish! The explanations and group activities with the instructor made me feel secure and allowed me to enjoy snorkeling without any worries! This was the most fun snorkeling tour I've ever participated in!

綺麗な海でお魚もたくさんの場所でシュノーケリングが出来てとっても楽しかったです！説明や、インストラクターさんとグループ行動など、不安を感じず安心してシュノーケルができました！今まで参加したシュノーケルツアーで一番楽しかったです！！

I had such an amazing time that I want to go again! ♪ They provided transportation to and from the hotel, and during the bus ride, they introduced us to recommended spots and attractions in Ishigaki Island. The guide was very kind and cheerful, and explained SUP in a way that was easy to understand, allowing even beginners to move smoothly! They took a lot of photos, creating wonderful memories! Thank you so much! ♪

もう一度行きたいくらい凄く楽しかったです！♪
ホテルまで行き帰り送迎していただき、バス内でも石垣島のおすすめスポットや観光地を紹介していただきました。
ガイドさんもとても優しくて明るく、わかりやすくSUPについて教えてくれたため、初心者でもすいすい移動することができました！
写真もたくさん撮ってくれてめちゃくちゃ良い思い出になりました！♪♪
ありがとうございました！♪

I experienced stand-up paddleboarding and snorkeling. Both were taught with great care, and they explained a lot about Ishigaki Island during the experience, which was really fun! They also shared many recommendations for delicious restaurants and must-visit places that are unique to the area.

If I come back to Ishigaki Island, I definitely want to experience this again.

サップとシュノーケリングを体験しました。
どちらも丁寧に教えてくださって、体験中もたくさん石垣島のことを説明してくれてすごく楽しかったです！
体験以外にも、美味しいお店とか行った方がいい場所とか、地元ならではのこともたくさんおしえてくれました。

また石垣島に来たら、ぜひここで体験したいです。

I appreciated the notification about the change of location due to strong winds a day in advance. It was also enjoyable that the school for small children provided gentle support.

強風のためスポットが変更になることを、前日にご連絡いただき、ありがたかったです。
小さい子ども学校も優しくフォローいただき楽しかったです。

I previously went snorkeling in Onna Village and didn't enjoy it much, but this time there were plenty of fish, and I was able to snorkel freely and have fun! There were so many fish that I felt a bit of ocean phobia, but I think I overcame it! For those who are unsure about swimming, you can hold onto the float that the guide has, so I think you'll be able to enjoy it! You can also take a lot of photos while doing SUP, so I believe you'll be satisfied! With the free time, you can go quite far and relax, so I highly recommend it!

以前恩納村でシュノーケリングしてあまりハマらなかったのですが、今回は魚がいっぱいいて比較的自由に楽しくシュノーケリングさせて頂きました！魚がたくさんいて楽しかったので若干海洋恐怖症でしたが克服できた気がします！泳ぎが不安な方はガイドの方が持ってる浮き輪に掴まって泳げるので楽しめると思います！SUPも写真をたくさん撮って貰えるので満足できると思います！自由な時間で結構遠くまで行けたりのんびりできるのでオススメです！

I participated in snorkeling with my sixth-grade son and mother.

Our guide, Tomo-chan, explained about the fish and taught us how to dive. It was our first time snorkeling from a boat, and it was really fulfilling.

Next time, I want to try diving!

小学6年の三男と母でシュノーケルに参加

やりたいな〜。

The guide was very kind and gentle with the children, and we were able to see sea turtles.

The public parking lot is full by 8:30 AM, so it's better to arrive early.

ガイドさんがとても親切で子供に優しくて、海亀にも会えました。

公共駐車場が0830には満席なので、早いほうがいいです。

My first parasailing experience was scary at first, but once I tried it, it was amazing. I definitely want everyone to see that view. The staff were also kind and made me feel safe. Thank you very much. I would like to book again if I have the opportunity next time.

初めてのパラセイリング、最初は怖かったんですが実際体験してみたら最高でした。是非あの景色を皆さんにも見て頂きたいです。スタッフさん達も親切で安心ですよ。ほんとうにありがとうございました。次回もまた機会があれば予約したいと思っています。

The sea is beautiful! The cave was crowded with tourists, but I learned a lot of things I didn't know about Okinawa and the caves, and I had fun taking many photos! Feeding the fish was exciting because they came close! The guide was also reassuring for those with children.

とにかく海がきれい！洞窟内は観光客で混み合っていましたが、沖縄や洞窟についての知らない事が知れ、写真も沢山撮ってもらって楽しかったです！餌やりも魚が近くて興奮しました！
子連れでも安心なガイドさんでした。

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・・・？

We participated in a family experience diving trip in Iriomote Island. We went out to sea by boat and dove in the clear waters. The instructors were kind, and we had a great time.

西表島の体験ダイビングに親子で参加しました。ボートで沖合に出て、透明度の高い海のダイビング。インストラクターの方々も親切で、楽しい時間を過ごしました。

I have been to Ishigaki Island several times, but this was my first visit to the Phantom Island. Since it was my dream to go snorkeling with my child, I requested a half-day course. When my 5-year-old was scared of snorkeling and waiting on the boat, a staff member named Kaori came over and talked with my daughter, which helped her get into the water. Thank you very much. All the staff members were cheerful and energetic, and we had a great time.

石垣島には何度かきたことあるのですが、初めて幻の島にいきました。
子供とシュノーケリングするのが夢だったので半日のコースをお願いしました。
5歳の子どもがシュノーケリングを怖がって船で待機していると、スタッフのかおりさんがきてくれて娘と話してくださり海へ入ることができました。ありがとうございます。
どのスタッフさんも明るくて元気な方ばかりで楽しかったです。

I had a relaxing and enjoyable time paddleboarding at Kabira Bay. I was very satisfied with the many great photos taken!

The guide shared a lot of delicious Ishigaki gourmet recommendations, allowing me to have a great time even after the tour!

Thank you very much!

川平湾でのSUPがのんびりゆったりで楽しかったです。いい写真もたくさん撮ってもらえて大満足です！

ガイドのお姉さんに絶品の石垣グルメをたくさん教えてもらえて、ツアー後も楽しく過ごすことができました！

ありがとうございました！

It was my first time snorkeling, but I felt at ease participating in the tour thanks to the attentive service. The guide had extensive knowledge about the fish we could see in the ocean, allowing me to enjoy searching for them while swimming. The caves were also mystical and wonderful. The guide took plenty of photos and videos, so I was able to look back and enjoy them later. If I have the chance to visit Ishigaki Island again, I would definitely like to participate!

初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、丁寧な対応で安心してツアーに参加できました。
海でみえる魚の知識も豊富で、自分で泳ぎながら探して楽しむことができました。
もちろん洞窟も神秘的でよかったです。
写真や動画もガイドさんが沢山撮ってくださるので、あとで見返して楽しむこともできました。
また石垣島に遊びに行く機会があれば是非参加したいです！

It was my first experience with SAP, but thanks to the guide's lecture, I was able to get on right away!
I also had a chance to snorkel in the crystal-clear sea and see various fish up close, which was an extraordinary experience!
It took quite a bit of physical effort, but I had so much fun during the tour that I forgot all about my fatigue!

SAP初体験だったのですが、ガイドさんのレクチャーのおかげですぐに乗れるようになりました！
シュノーケリングも透き通った海を泳げたり、色々な魚を間近でみれたりと非日常を体験できました！
かなり体力は使ったのですが、ツアー中は疲れを忘れるほど楽しかったです！

I went to Okinawa without a plan and, in the midst of the chaos of searching for tours at the hotel, I found and participated in snorkeling.

Blessed with clear skies and a pleasant breeze on the boat, the spot we arrived at was breathtakingly clear blue. The underwater world I saw while snorkeling was like a different realm, filled with beautiful fish and coral reefs. The highlight was witnessing the graceful swimming of a green sea turtle, which was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

The guides were very kind, explaining how to use the equipment and providing details about the spots. Above all, everyone was cheerful, which made it enjoyable.

I’m grateful that my wife and I participated. Thank you very much.

ノープランで沖縄にいき、ホテルでツアー検索というバタバタの中で見つけシュノーケリングに参加させてもらいました。

快晴に恵まれ船上の風も気持ちよい中、到着したスポットは、澄んだ青で感動ものでした。
シュノーケリングで見た海中は、たくさんの美しい魚と珊瑚礁と別世界。きわめつけはアオウミガメの優雅な泳ぎが見れ、これは一生ものでした。

ガイドの方々は、機材使い方やスポットの説明を親切にしていただきました。なにより、みんな明るいのが楽しくよかったです。

妻とも参加してよかったと、感謝しています。ありがとうございます。

We participated as a family of three, including my fourth-grade son. The group was about half Western and half Asian, with roughly one-third each from China, Korea, and Japan. The staff were very attentive, providing assistance in both Japanese and English for each participant team.

The wave conditions were apparently good, as the boat hardly swayed while we visited three locations. My son, who is prone to seasickness, didn't feel sick at all and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of the Kerama Islands while also having ample swimming time. The boat was clean and equipped with a shower, changing room (spacious enough for two people to change together), and restroom. There was also a dry area, so we brought our backpacks with candies and a camera, taking photos in between swims. After finishing lunch, we had a break where we jumped off the boat and swam around, having fun playing with the diverse group of people on board.

For snorkeling, we swam in areas with coral tunnels, cliffs, and white paths between the corals (so perhaps the experience diving team on the same boat was more enjoyable?). We also spotted sea turtles and sea snakes. While the colorful coral and abundance of tropical fish were much more vibrant at Yaeyama Islands' Yonaha Maehama, where I had been before, the scenery during the cruise was beautiful as well (my son exclaimed that it looked like the island from Jurassic World!). The staff were all wonderful, and they took plenty of photos for us.

小４息子を含む家族３人で参加。欧米系が半分、残り半分アジア系で、中国、韓国と日本人が1/3ずつくらい。スタッフのみなさんも沢山いらっしゃって、参加者チームごとに日本語や英語で丁寧に対応してくれました。
ちょうど波の状態が良かったらしく、船はほとんど揺れずに３か所を周遊。酔いやすい息子も全く船酔いせず、慶良間のきれいな島々の景色を楽しみつつ、しっかり遊泳時間も取ってくれました。船にはシャワー、更衣室（子供と２人で入っても着替えられるくらい、案外広い）、トイレがあり、きれい。ドライエリアもあるので、リュックサックに飴玉やカメラも持って行って、泳ぐ合間は写真撮ったりしてました。ランチを食べ終わった後の休憩時間では、船から飛び込んで周辺を泳いだり、乗り合わせた多国籍な人たちとノリよくワイワイ遊んで楽しかったです。

シュノーケリングは、サンゴのトンネルや崖、サンゴの合間に白い道などがあるエリアを泳ぎ（なので、同じ船に乗っている体験ダイビングのチームのほうが楽しかったかも？）、ウミガメやウミヘビも観られました。カラフルさや熱帯魚の多さは前に行ったことがある宮古島の八重干瀬のほうがずっと色鮮やかで竜宮城的な感じがしますが、クルージング中の景色もきれいだし（息子はジュラシックワールドの映画の島みたい！とはしゃいでいました）、スタッフの方もみなさん良い方ばかりです。写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。
