All Reviews for Outdoor Activities

I was taken to Tokashiku Beach. I was very satisfied as I got to see sea turtles. It was a very hot day, so I needed quite a bit of cash for renting umbrellas, snorkeling sets, and coin lockers. It takes about an hour by boat, so it was reassuring to take motion sickness medication!

トカシクビーチの方に連れて行って頂きました。
ウミガメも見れて大満足でした。
とても暑い日だったのでパラソルのレンタル、シュノーケルセットのレンタル、コインロッカーなど現金が割と必要でした。
船で１時間ほどはかかるので、酔い止めは飲んでおくと安心でした！

This was my first trekking experience. I participated alone, and I had some anxiety, but thanks to my reliable and fun guide, I was able to complete it. The refreshing feeling after finishing is unforgettable! Thank you very much.

トレッキング初体験の私。一人での参加で、不安もありましたが、頼りになる楽しいガイドさんのおかげで完走できました。完走後の清々しさ、忘れられません！どうもありがとうございました。

You can spend half day in Genki village, it's not an usual big park, but you can have some water activities, feeds the aminials such as goats, tortoise, fishes there except encounter the dolphins.
Coaches and dolphins are both super fun and friendly, it's a great experience and get close with the dolphins, they sing, they dance and they leap! My 3yro child love it so much, becuz he can touch it face, belly, hand for many times! Coaches will teach you some simple gestures to invite the dolphins to come to you, high five and instruct them to you turn around etc

I took motion sickness medication before the trip. The boat didn't sway much, and the sea breeze felt nice, so I think I wouldn't have gotten seasick even without the medication. The spot we arrived at had a beautiful, clear sea, so I highly recommend it. It's especially great for those who are snorkeling for the first time. Personally, I chose this tour because I wanted to see sea turtles, so I feel a bit unsatisfied, but that's just the luck of the draw.

酔い止めを飲んで臨みました。
船はそんなに揺れなかったし、海風も気持ちよかったので、酔い止めなしでも酔わなかったと思います。
ついたポイントは透き通ったキレイな海だったのでそこはオススメです。シュノーケリング初めてのひとに特にオススメです。
私的には今回このツアーを選んだのはウミガメに会いたかったからなので、少し物足りない気持ちもありますがこれは運なので仕方ないですね。

I have been to Ishigaki Island several times, but I wanted to conquer other remote islands as well, so this time I signed up for a full-pack tour to thoroughly enjoy Iriomote Island. The most fun part was the limestone cave. The authentic limestone cave, which is different from Ishigaki Island, was an adventure with headlamps. It was refreshing to explore in the darkness while listening to the sounds of water and the chirping of birds!

石垣島は何度か行ったことがありましたが、他の離島も制覇したくなり今回西表島をがっつり楽しむためにフルパックのツアーを申し込みました。1番楽しかったのは鍾乳洞です。石垣島とは違う本格的な鍾乳洞はヘッドライトをつけて冒険します。暗闇の中で水の音や鳥の鳴き声を聞きながら冒険するのは新鮮でした！

Snorkeling in the Blue Cave was amazing, with lots of different fish and many highlights to see.

I was excited to swim in a place close to the ocean, not just a beach, but I felt safe because we had a guide since I couldn't go alone. During the tour, the guide shared information about Okinawa, making it a wonderful travel memory.

青の洞窟でのシュノーケリングは色んなお魚がいて、見どころがたくさんありました。

海水浴場じゃないすぐ海に近い場所を泳げてドキドキしましたが1人じゃいけないのでガイドさんがいてくれて安心できました。
ツアー中は沖縄のこととかをガイドさんが教えてくれていい旅行の思い出になりました。

I was satisfied to see creatures that you can only encounter if you know the area. The guide's response was also good. It was a great tour where I could see the starry sky as well.

現地を知らないと遭遇できない生き物が見えて満足しました。ガイドの対応も良かったです。
星空も見れてお得なツアーでした

For my boyfriend's birthday, I was surprised by so many things, especially since I'm not usually an outdoor person! When I actually visited the Blue Cave, I found that the shallow sea was quite expansive, and there were many experiences that you can only understand by trying them out. The stand-up paddleboarding was designed for people who aren't used to outdoor activities, and with tips from my boyfriend and the guide, I was able to stand up on the board. By the end, we became friendly enough to take a photo together with the guide, which made for the best memories.

彼氏の誕生日で普段アウトドアをしない私にはアッと驚かされる内容ばかりでした！
青の洞窟は実際に行ってみると、浅い海が結構広がっていたり、体験しないとわからないことが目白押しでした。
サップはアウトドアに慣れていない人でも乗れるようになっていて、彼氏とガイドさんにコツを教えてもらい立てるようになりました。
最後はガイドさんと三人で写真を取るくらいまで仲良くなれて最高の思い出になりました。

The one-day tour was so much fun!! In the morning, we went stand-up paddleboarding to see a waterfall. There was a cave nearby, and we had an adventure there for about 30 minutes. After that, we had lunch at a diner. The soba was delicious. In the afternoon, we went to Miracle Island. I'm the type that gets seasick easily, but the boat was big and didn't rock at all!! The coral at Miracle Island was incredibly white and breathtaking.

1日ツアーめっちゃ楽しかった！！朝はまず滝を見にいくサップをしました。その近くに洞窟があって30分ほど冒険をしました。そのあとはお昼ごはんで食堂でお昼ご飯。 おそば美味しかったです。 午後から奇跡の島にいきました。船酔いしやすいタイプですが、船は大きくて揺れませんでした！！奇跡の島のサンゴがとっても白くて感動モノです。

On the day of the visit, it rained, and I thought I was unlucky, but the mangroves were less affected by the rain, and the atmosphere in the limestone cave was different from a sunny day, allowing me to experience Iriomote Island in a unique way. Since I was already wet from the rain, I tried standing under the waterfall and swimming in the pool below it—activities I might not have done if it had been sunny. I'm glad I got to have fun doing those things.

当日は雨が降ってしまい、運がなかったのかなと思いましたがマングローブの中は雨の影響が少なくて、鍾乳洞も雰囲気が出ていて晴れの日とは違った西表島を体験できました。
どうせ雨に濡れているからと滝に打たれてみたり、滝つぼで泳いでみたり晴れてたらやらなかったかもしれないことをして遊べて良かったです。

At first, I was worried about whether it would be okay in the dark, but once the night tour started, I heard the rustling of animals, and it turned out to be a gecko. The sound of the gecko is definitely worth hearing at least once. It became a wonderful tropical night filled with darkness. Thank you, Kobayashi-san.

最初は暗いなか大丈夫かなぁって心配しましたがナイトツアー がはじまってみると、
動物のガサガサと音が鳴り出てきたのは、ヤモリでした。ヤモリの鳴き声は一度聞く価値あります。素晴らしい熱帯夜の暗闇になりました。小林さんありがとうございます。

Kawahirawan is shallower than I expected, so even if you fall off the SUP, you won't drown! We challenged ourselves with a tandem ride and fell off several times, but it was fine!! I was worried about the blue cave since my companion isn't a strong swimmer, but we were able to proceed slowly and safely reached our destination. In the end, we took a little break at a slightly cold waterfall to rinse off the seawater before the tour ended. The fruit juice shop we recommended after was delicious!

川平湾は思ったより浅いのでSUPが万が一転倒しても溺れることはないです！私たちは二人乗りで挑戦して何度も落ちましたが、大丈夫でした！！泳ぎが苦手な彼が心配だった青の洞窟も、ゆっくり進んでいただけたので目的地まで無事いけました。最後は海水を落とすために少し冷たい滝のところでプカプカ休憩してツアーが終わりました。終わった後のオススメの果物ジュース屋美味しかった〜！

The day before, the wind was strong, and I was worried, but thanks to Ishigaki Island's unpredictable weather, it was cloudy on the day of the trip, yet the wind was calm.

I learned that the Blue Cave is popular, and while searching for it, I found that Pipi was the most popular shop, so I chose this plan.

While I was in the Blue Cave, the sun peeked out for a moment, and it left a strong impression on me how beautiful the cave became. I also got to try stand-up paddleboarding in the sea, which was fun as I could explore various places on my own.

前日まで風がつよくて、心配しましたが石垣島の天気の変わりやすさに助けられて当日は曇ってはいましたが風は穏やかでした。
青の洞窟が人気だと知って探していたらピピさんが一番人気のショップだったのでこちらのプランにしました。

青の洞窟にいるときに少しだけ太陽が見えて、洞窟の中がきれいになったのが印象に残りました。
海でサップもできて自分で色んな所に行けて面白かったです。

I participated in the Blue Cave, and my friend wanted to try stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). The weather was great at the Blue Cave, and the swimming area inside the cave was very beautiful. It was my friend's first time snorkeling, and we were able to see a large ray, which made our swimming experience enjoyable. The breeze during the SUP was refreshing, and the sea was beautiful, so we were happy that our guide took many photos of us.

私は青の洞窟、友人はSUPに乗りたくて参加しました。
青の洞窟は天気が良くて、洞窟の中にある泳げる場所がとてもきれいでした。
友人はシュノーケル初めてでしたが、大きなエイにも会えて2人で楽しんで泳げました。
サップは風が気持ちよくて、海もきれいだったのでガイドさんが私達の写真をたくさん撮ってくれて嬉しかったです。

At the mangrove, I was able to get close to the waterfall and felt the fresh air in front of it. The only sounds were the chirping of birds, the wind, and the sound of the waterfall, which was very soothing. The limestone cave allowed me to walk through the jungle and pass through caves, making me feel like I was on an adventure. I love nature and often go to mountains and rivers, but the atmosphere of the tropical nature was completely different, and I was glad to make new discoveries.

マングローブでは滝に近づくことができ、滝の前では自然のきれいな空気を感じることができた。
鳥の鳴き声や風の音、滝の音しかないのでとても癒やされた。
鍾乳洞はジャングルを歩いたり、洞窟を抜けたりできて冒険したような気分になれる。
自然が好きで山や川によく行くんですが南国の自然は全然違う雰囲気に包まれていて新しい発見ができて良かった。

Thanks to the guide's seamless navigation, I was able to soak in the beautiful scenery of Balas Island under clear skies. On the way to the mangroves, I encountered a rather large hermit crab, and I was surprised to learn it was a natural monument. Paddling through the mangrove river on a SUP was an experience I won't forget. The large cave with a big opening allowed me to see the unique nature of this southern island.

ガイドさんのつつがない案内のおかげでバラス島は晴れてて景色の美しさに浸ることができました。
マングローブに行く途中には昼間なのに少しおっきいのヤドカリに会えて、天然記念物だと聞いて驚きました。サップでマングローブの川を進むのはなかなか体験できないので感動しました。
おっきな穴が開いた鍾乳洞は自然南の島の珍しい自然を見ることができました。

This time, my friend and I decided to explore the islands of Okinawa. Last year, we went to Ishigaki Island, so this year we visited nearby Iriomote Island. I wanted to go to Barasu Island, which is made of coral and not found in Ishigaki, so I joined this tour. I was really concerned about safety since we would be on the water, but when we arrived, it was much larger than I expected and the waves weren't strong, so I felt relieved. My friend and I were able to leisurely walk on the beautiful coral and enjoy our time in nature.

今回友人と沖縄離島めぐりをしようと決めて、去年は石垣島に行ったので今年は近くにある西表島に行きました。
石垣島にはないサンゴでできたバラス島に行きたくて、このツアーに参加しました。
海の上なので安全かどうかがすごく気になっていましたが、着いてみると思ってたより広くて波も強くないので安心しました。
友人と2人できれいなサンゴの上を歩いて自然の中にいる時間をゆったり過ごせました。

I visited the Blue Cave a few years ago, but the weather wasn't very good at that time, so I thought I would like to come back someday. Honestly, I thought it wouldn't be much different from before, but when the sun came out, the blue of the sea was incredibly beautiful, so I'm glad I came. I also got to see some cute clownfish. Due to the unpredictable weather, I couldn't go to Kabira Bay, but the alternative mangrove canoeing was amazing!

青の洞窟は数年前に行ったのですが、そのときはあまり天気が良くなくいつかまた来たいと思い参加しました。
正直、以前と大して変わらないだろうと思っていましたが晴れると海の青さが段違いに良くなったので来てよかったです。
かわいいクマノミにも会えました。
天候不順で川平湾は行けなかったですが、代替のマングローブカヌーも最&高でした！

I visited Iriomote Island for the first time and didn't have much knowledge about it, only knowing that the water buffalo carts are famous. When I asked the hotel staff, they recommended an eco-tour with kayaking and a visit to Barasu Island, which I participated in. It was my first time on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP), and I found it interesting that I could sit or stand freely, unlike in a canoe. Barasu Island was even more beautiful than in the pictures, with calm waves that felt great, so I thought I would like to come back someday.

西表島は初めてであまり知識がなく、水牛車が有名なことを知ってるくらいでした。
ホテルの人に聞くと、カヤックに乗ったりするエコツアーと、バラス島をオススメされて参加しました。
SUPは初めて乗ったんですがカヌーとは違って自由に座れたり立てたりするのが面白かったです。
バラス島は写真で見るよりきれいで波も穏やかで気持ちよかったので、またいつか来たいと思いました。

I wanted to come with a friend, but our schedules didn't match, so I participated alone. I was looking forward to seeing clownfish in the Blue Cave. When I got to the beach, the blue of the sea and the white of the sand exceeded my expectations and moved me. It's been a few years since I last went snorkeling, so I was helped by the guide's kind explanations. I recommend this for those who want to enjoy a day at a great value.

友達と来たかったんですが、予定が合わなくて一人で参加しました。
青の洞窟でクマノミを見るのが楽しみで参加しました。
砂浜に出ると海の青さと砂浜の白さが期待以上で感動しました。
シュノーケルは数年前にやって以来なのでガイドさんの親切な説明に助けられました。
お得に1日遊びたい方にオススメです。

It was my first time on a remote island, and I was surprised by how different the natural scenery was from Okinawa Main Island. First of all, the abundance of mangroves and the beautiful blue of the sea left a strong impression on me. I had no issues with canoeing since I had done it before when I visited Okinawa Main Island, so I was able to fully enjoy nature from start to finish. I think it's easy enough for beginners as well. In contrast to the whiteness of Barasu Island, the limestone caves are located in the forest, allowing for a great combination of both land and sea nature.

離島は初めてでしたが、沖縄本島とは自然の印象が全く違い驚きました。
まずマングローブの豊富さ、海の青さが美しくてとても印象に残りました。
カヌーは以前に沖縄本島に行った時に乗っていたので何も問題なく最初から最後まで自然を満喫できました。
初心者の人でも簡単だと思います。
バラス島の白さとは対象的に、鍾乳洞は森の中にあって陸と海の自然をいいとこ取りできました。

I experienced snorkeling for the first time with my 5-year-old son! I was amazed by the clarity of the ocean in Okinawa. I wanted to keep looking underwater forever! Time flew by so quickly. Next, I want to challenge myself with scuba diving. This experience made me want to go back again. The staff provided clear and thorough explanations about the equipment and snorkeling. However, I wish they had informed us about the location of the shower and restroom at the beginning, as it was a bit hard to find.

初めてのシュノーケリングを、5歳の息子と一緒に体験しました！沖縄の海の透明度に感動。ずっとずっと海の中を見ていたかった！！あっという間に時間が過ぎました。次はスキューバーダイビングに挑戦してみたいです。また行きたい、そう思わせてくれました。お店の方の道具やシュノーケリングの際の説明も丁寧で分かりやすかった。ただ、シャワーとトイレがどこにあるのか分かりずらかったので最初に教えて欲しかったです。

Both the Jomon Sugi course and the Shiratani Unsuikyo course were blessed with great weather, allowing us to enjoy the wonderful scenery. Our guide, Yokota, shared interesting stories, and we learned about historical facts, making the two days fly by. I am truly grateful for the ample time we had for taking photos and for the excellent arrangements made at Taiko Rock. Additionally, everyone from Yakushima was warm and welcoming, and I have fallen in love with Yakushima all over again. I will definitely be back.

縄文杉コースも白谷雲水峡コースも天気に恵まれ、素晴らしい景色を堪能できました。
ガイド横田さんのお話も面白く、歴史的な事など知れたりであっという間の2日間でした。
また、写真を撮る時間を多く頂いたり、太鼓岩では絶妙な采配をして頂いたりと本当に感謝しかありません。
また、屋久島の方皆さん温かく、屋久島が改めて好きになりました。リピート確実です。

I went snorkeling for the first time on my trip to Okinawa! I was a bit anxious at first since I had my 9-year-old and 7-year-old with me, but the staff were incredibly kind and guided us well, so the kids weren't scared at all. At the second spot, we encountered a sea turtle and were able to swim with it, which made the kids extremely happy! They said it was their best memory!! I want to participate again!!!

初めての沖縄旅行で、シュノーケリングに挑戦しました！
9歳と7歳の子供を連れての参加で最初は少し不安でしたが、スタッフの皆さんが非常に親切に誘導してくださり、子供達も特に怖がることもありませんでした。
2箇所目のポイントでウミガメに遭遇し、一緒に泳ぐことができて、子供達は非常に喜んでいました！　一番の思い出になったと言っています！！
また、参加したいです！！！

I participated with my elementary school-aged child. I wanted to expose my indoor child to nature, so I joined this tour. To be honest, I was worried about whether they would enjoy it, but they had a great time. The snorkeling in the Blue Cave was especially exciting because we could see the fish up close, and my child was thrilled! I hope this encourages them to take on more challenges in the future.

まだ小学生の子供と参加しました。普段からインドアなうちの子を自然に触れさせてみたいと思い、このツアーに参加しました。
正直楽しんでくれるか不安だったのですが、すごく楽しんでくれました。
特に青の洞窟でのシュノーケルは魚がすごく近くで見れたので、子供も大興奮でした！
これを機にどんどんいろんなことにチャレンジして欲しいです。

Due to the impact of the typhoon, I requested changes to the tour schedule and content, and I apologize for the inconvenience. However, thanks to your efforts, I was able to fully enjoy the beautiful Taiko Rock course on the last day of my trip to the islands. I received a lot of information from our guide, Mr. Shimozono, and I was able to create wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

台風の影響でツアー日程や内容を変更依頼し、お手数をかけてしましましたが、お陰様で離島最終日に晴天の太鼓岩コースを満喫することが出来ました。
ガイドの下園さんからは色々な情報を教えて頂き、良い思い出を作る事が出来ました。
本当にありがとうございます！

I had traveled to Ishigaki before, but unfortunately, it was cloudy that time, and I couldn't see the stars at all. So, this time, I participated to make up for that. On the day of the tour, the clouds cleared beautifully, and I was able to experience an extraordinary starry sky that made me realize, "So this is what the night sky looks like in a southern island!" I also understood that the visibility of stars differs greatly between the town center and the outskirts of Ishigaki. If you come to Ishigaki and the weather looks good at night, I definitely recommend going to see the stars!

以前にも石垣へ旅行にきたことがあったのですが、その時はあいにくの曇りで星空がまったく見られなかったので、今回はそのリベンジも兼ねて参加しました。
ツアー当日は雲がきれいに晴れ、これが南の島の星空か！と実感できる格別の星空を見ることができました。
また、石垣でも町中と町外れで全然星の見え方が違ってくるということもよく分かりました。
もし、石垣に来て夜の天気が良さそうだったら、星空を見に行くことをぜひオススメします！

I came to Ishigaki Island to try stand-up paddleboarding at Kabira Bay, and I was blessed with great weather—it was truly fun! I could see the seabed clearly, and the guide patiently taught me, a beginner in paddleboarding. During snorkeling, there were many colorful fish, and it was a view I could watch forever! I will definitely come back to Ishigaki Island!

川平湾でのサップボードをしたくて石垣島にきたのですが、天気にも恵まれ本当に楽しかったです！！
海底が透けて見えましたし、ガイドの方がサップ初心者の私に丁寧に教えてくれました。
シュノーケルでは色鮮やかな魚がたくさんいて、ずっと見てられる景色でした！！
また石垣島に遊びにきます！

I was really anxious because I don't have good athletic skills, but by the end, I was able to stand up! ^_^ Thanks to the guide's instruction. Thank you very much. I immediately recommended it to my friends. If there's another opportunity, I look forward to it. And thank you, Takagi!

運動神経が全然良くないので不安だったのですが、最後には立てるようになりました^_^
ガイドさんの指導のおかげです。
ありがとうございました。
友達にも早速オススメしました。
また機会がありましたら、よろしくお願いします。
そしてタカギさんありがとう！

Since I got tired of island hopping, I decided to participate in an activity. I had always wanted to try kayaking, so I joined this plan that offers kayaking in Kabira Bay.
Kayaking in Kabira Bay was wonderful, but I realized how much fun snorkeling is! I found myself wanting to swim in various places and I might completely get hooked on it!

島巡りも飽きたので、アクティビティに参加することにしました。カヤックを一度やりたかったので、川平湾でカヤックできるこのプランに参加しました。
川平湾でのカヤックも素晴らしかったのですが、シュノーケリングの楽しさに気づいてしまいましたw
色んな場所で泳ぎたくなってしまい完全にハマりそうですw
