All Reviews for Okinawa Snorkeling

I participated with my almost 6-year-old daughter and my mother. I wasn't worried since my daughter is naturally good at swimming, and the instructor closely watched the children, so it seemed fine even for kids who couldn't swim. My child looked very happy playing with a family that had a 6-year-old boy. We drove to a nearby beach, descended a steep slope, and slowly walked into the sea. They provide life jackets, but you have to wear the shoes you came in with. I was wearing high Regetta sandals and regretted not bringing marine shoes... even though I had some at the hotel. In the water, it was difficult to swim well with the thick-soled sandals, and I ended up scraping my feet on the rocks. (There was a photo of someone wearing a wetsuit, but you only wear a life jacket over your swimsuit.) When the kids went into deeper water, they got fins and were pulled to safety by the instructor, floating happily. They kept peering into the water and hardly lifted their heads. It was their first time, but it seemed they quickly learned how to breathe. My child returned home unscathed and had a great time. While my child was very satisfied, I will give a lower rating because it wasn't mentioned that there wouldn't be wetsuits and that we would have to enter the sea in the shoes we wore.

もうすぐ6歳になる娘と母の2人で参加しました。
娘はもともと泳ぎが得意でしたので心配はしていませんでしたが、インストラクターの方がきちんと子供を見て下さるので、泳げない子供でも問題ないようでした。
6歳の男の子がいるご家族と一緒で、とてもうれしそうな我子。
すぐ近くの海まで車で移動し、急な斜面を降りて、ゆっくりと歩いて海に入りました。
ライフジャケットは貸して下さるのですが、海に入るときの靴は、履いていった靴のままです。
私は高さがあるリゲッタのサンダルを履いていました。マリンシューズ持って来ればよかった・・・と後悔。ホテルにあるのに・・・。
海の中でも厚底のサンダルでは上手に泳ぐことだできず、岩に足をぶつけて、傷だらけになりました
（ウェットスーツを着た写真が掲載されていましたが、水着の上にライフジャケットを着るだけです）。
子供は深さのあるところまで進むと足ひれをつけてもらって、インストラクターに安全なところへ引っ張ってもらって、ぷかぷか浮いて楽しそうでした。ずっと海の中を覗いて、全然顔をあげませんでした。始めてでしたが、呼吸もすぐに覚えたようです。
子供は無傷で楽しんで帰りました。
子供はとても満足していましたが、ウェットスーツがなかったこと、履いていった靴で海に入ることが記載されていなかったため、★をマイナスにします。

On my second trip to Okinawa, I finally visited the Blue Cave ( ¨̮ )/
It was more popular than I imagined, with crowds inside the cave‼︎
The moment I saw the beautiful blue was truly moving☆
And above all!!
I was very satisfied with the photos taken with the underwater camera that was lent to me for free, capturing the essence of Okinawa‼︎ (*⁰▿⁰*)

人生2度目の沖縄で念願の青の洞窟に行きました( ¨̮ )/
洞窟の中が混雑するという想像を超える人気ぶりでした‼︎
あおーーく綺麗に見えた瞬間は感動しました☆
そして何より！！
無料で貸して頂いた水中カメラでの撮影ではThe沖縄‼︎を思い出に残せて、大満足でした(*⁰▿⁰*)

I participated in snorkeling.

The Blue Cave was mystical and beautiful. The sea surrounding the cave was also clear, and there were many fish.

However, since it is a quite famous spot, there were a lot of people. The cave is not very spacious, so there was a wait, and it didn't feel like we could swim freely. There were moments when some people couldn't keep up with the instructor and were being scolded, which made me wonder about that.

I felt that it would be best to avoid the busy summer season.

シュノーケリングで参加しました。

青の洞窟は神秘的で美しかったです。
洞窟周囲の海もキレイで魚がたくさんいました。

しかし、かなり有名なスポットなので、人がとても多い。
洞窟もそれほど広くはないので、
順番待ちがあり、自由に泳ぐという感じではありません。
インストラクターさんに付いてこれない人がいて叱られている場面もあり
ちょっとどうなのかな…と思ってしまいました。

夏の混雑時期は避けるべきだと感じました。

It was a package with parasailing and banana boat rides, and the weather was perfect! Since parasailing involves other guests participating in the same session, we had to wait on the boat while others were parasailing. It was fun, but I suffered from seasickness, so I give it a rating of 3.

パラセーリングとバナナボートのパックでしたが、お天気にも恵まれ最高でした！
パラセーリングは他のお客さんも一緒の回に参加するため、他の方がパラセーリングされている間の待ち時間は船の上で待機…。楽しかったのですが、当方船酔いに悩まされ、評価3つです。

It seems that various companies are approaching the Blue Cave. As a result, there is a huge traffic jam inside the cave. To enter the cave, you disembark about 50 meters before and everyone grabs onto a float to get to the cave... well, it's quite hectic. The sea along the way is very beautiful, but you have to hurry to get to the cave. If you fall behind, you will be scolded to hurry up without mercy.

Even upon arriving at the cave, there is a big traffic jam, resembling a crowded train. Well, that can't be helped... but you are constantly rushed.

The photo spot is only on the left side of the exit. Each tour company uses this spot in turn. After finishing, you return near the boat and play with some fish before wrapping up. But the sea is beautiful, with many small schools of fish. It's not often you get to see this scenery while snorkeling. In that sense, it's a spot you should visit at least once.

Good points:
- It was incredibly beautiful.
- There was no waste of time from check-in to disbanding.
- The point is very close.

Points to note for those going:
- The parking lot is hard to find, so please simulate it in advance.
- You should be able to swim a little... it can be quite tough otherwise.
- You can buy an SD card on-site (8GB for 1000 yen).

色んな会社から、青の洞窟にアプロローチしているようです。
よって洞窟内は大渋滞ｗ
洞窟の中に行くのには50メートルぐらい手前に下船して
皆でフロートに捕まって洞窟まで行きますが・・・
まぁ慌ただしいです・・。
途中の海の中は非常に綺麗ですが・・大急ぎで洞窟に行かなければならないのですｗ
遅れようものなら容赦なく早く来いと叱られます。

洞窟に到着しても、大渋滞
満員電車のような状態です。
まぁそれは仕方ないんですが・・
とにかく急かされます

写真のポイントは出口の左側の一択
ここを各ツアー社ごとに順番に使用します
終わったら船の近くに戻り、少し魚と戯れて終わりです
でも海はきれいです
小さな魚の大群も多くいます
なかなかシュノーケリングでこの景色を見ることは出来ません。
そういう意味では一度は行って欲しいポイントです。

良かった点
・とにかく綺麗でした
・受付から解散まで無駄はありません
・ポイントが非常に近い

これから行く人の注意点
・駐車場がわかりにくいです、事前になんとなくシュミレーションして下さい。
・少しは泳げないと・・結構きついと思います
・SDカードは現地でも買えます（８GB　1000円）

I have been to Okinawa many times, but this was my first time at the Blue Cave. I was able to see Nemo and various fish while snorkeling, which was more than I expected. It would have been even better if we had a bit more time for snorkeling. Also, from the meeting point to the boat, we had to walk a bit under the blazing sun without any gear, and I wish they had at least allowed us to bring a bath towel on the boat. Overall, it was a satisfying experience.

沖縄には何度も行きましたが、青の洞窟は初めてでした。思ったより、シュノーケリングで、ニモや色んな魚をみることができました。もう少しシュノーケリングの時間があればもっとよかったです。又、集合場所から、舟まで手ぶらで、炎天下の中、少し歩く必要がありましたが、せめてバスタオル位、舟に持参させてほしかったです。全体的には、満足な内容でした。

My first time in Okinawa and my first time snorkeling! From the parking lot guidance, everyone was very helpful and attentive.

Upon arrival, they quickly guided us, and after changing into wetsuits, we boarded the boat with others who were also there for the experience. I was a bit worried about getting seasick, but it was a short ride to the Blue Cave, and the waves were gentle with a refreshing breeze!

The moment we arrived at the Blue Cave and got off the boat was the scariest part for me, haha. At first, I couldn't move forward without holding onto the instructor's float, but I gradually got used to the water and was able to swim with fins!

There were a lot of people, but together with the instructor and my group, we headed into the Blue Cave! The beautiful blue color was so moving. The sea was incredibly clear, and when I looked down, I could see all the way to the bottom! The fish were also very close.

After taking some photos, we fed the fish near the boat and took more pictures. When we fed them, they came close, and it felt like a dream.

My first snorkeling experience truly became a wonderful memory. Thank you!

初めてのオキナワ、初めてのシュノーケリングでした！駐車場の案内から、とてもわかりやすく丁寧に皆さん対応してくださりました。
到着して、テキパキとご案内していただき、ウエットスーツに着替えて、体験をする人たちと一緒に船に乗りました。
酔ってしまわないか不安でしたが、船から青の洞窟まではすぐでしたし、波もあまりなく、風が気持ちきいなーというかんそうでした！
青の洞窟に到着して、船から降りる瞬間がいちばんこわかったです笑
はじめはインストラクターさんの浮き輪に掴まりながらでないとすすめなかったのですが、だんだん水に慣れてきて、足ヒレで泳げるようになりました！
人が多かったですが、インストラクターさんと、同じグループの方々と一緒に青の洞窟へ！
綺麗な青色にみえて、すごく感動しました。海もとても綺麗で、下を見ると、底まで透けて見える！
魚もすごく近かったです。
写真撮影してもらったあとは、船の近くで魚に餌をあげたり、写真を撮ったりしました。
餌をあげると近くに寄ってきて、夢のようなかんじがしました。
人生初のシュノーケリング、ほんとうにいい思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

We participated as a family this time. At first, I was wondering how my 5-year-old daughter (it was her first experience) would do, but as we prepared various equipment like wetsuits, she became cheerful! However, when the board started moving to the point, her mood gradually changed... When we arrived at the point and it was time to set off, she started to whine, saying, "I'm scared, I don't want to go," which was a bit troublesome. With the help of the instructor, we managed to convince her to start. Even when we entered the sea, she was still half-crying... But the instructor stayed with her one-on-one, and little by little, she got used to it. Perhaps she was moved by the world she saw underwater, as she quickly returned to being cheerful. After that, she started diving on her own and thoroughly enjoyed her first snorkeling experience. By the time we had to get back on the board, she was being a bit stubborn, saying, "I still want to do it, I don't want to get out..." The cave was very mystical, and I was impressed by the beautiful scenery. Each family has a dedicated instructor, so parents can take care of their children without missing out on the fun. This is a very reassuring plan that I absolutely recommend for families with children. I appreciate the instructor (I forgot to ask his name) for his clear explanations and kind, attentive support towards my daughter. Also, thank you for taking so many beautiful photos. I hope to participate in diving next time. Additionally, operating the GoPro is very easy. If I had to suggest something, I recommend bringing a micro SD card (4GB or more). (You can also purchase one at the shop...)

今回家族で参加しました。
最初５歳の娘（初体験）にはどうかな？と思っていましたがウエットスーツ等いろいろ装備品を準備していくにつれて、上機嫌！
と思いきや、ポイントまでボードが動き出したら、だんだん機嫌が・・・
ボードがポイントに着き、さあ出発！「こわい、行きたくない」とぐずりだし困りました。
インストラクターのお兄さんと一緒に説得しなんとか出発できました。
海に入っても半泣きのまま・・・
インストラクターのお兄さんが娘にマンツーマンで付いてくれて少しづつ慣れてきて、自分で海中を見た世界に感動したのかあっという間に上機嫌に戻りました。
それからはもう自分で何回も潜り初めてのシュノーケルを堪能してました。
おかげでボードに上がる時間になると「まだしたい、上がりたくない」とわがままを言い出す始末で・・・
洞窟内はとても神秘的でとても綺麗な景色に感動でした。
１ファミリーに１人インストラクターが専属でついてくれますので、お父さんお母さんが子どもの面倒を見て全く楽しめないということもありません。
とても安心で子ども連れのファミリーに絶対おすすめプランです。
インストラクターのお兄さん（名前伺うの忘れてしまいました）の娘に対するわかりやすい説明親切、丁寧な対応に感謝しております。また、きれいな写真もたくさん撮っていただきりありがとうございました。
次の機会ではダイビングで参加できればと思います。
あとＧoＰroの操作はとても簡単です。あえて言うならマイクロＳＤカード（４ＧＢ以上）を用意していくことをお勧めします。（ショップで購入もできますが・・・）

I participated with my three daughters, who are all 4 years old. Since a guide was assigned to our family, we were able to enjoy snorkeling together with peace of mind. Additionally, the facilities such as changing rooms and showers are well-equipped, so I think it would be nice to stop by while on the way with a rental car.

一番下は4歳の3人娘と参加しました
家族に1人案内の方が付いてくださるので、安心して全員でシュノーケリングできました
また、更衣室やシャワー室などの設備も充実していますので、レンタカーで移動途中とかに寄るのもいいかと思います

Unfortunately, due to bad weather and high waves on the day of the tour, we couldn't reach the sea turtle encounter point. Although it was cloudy, we were able to land on Barasu Island. On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed nature with a 30-minute hike and a canoeing excursion. Since I don't often have the opportunity to ride a canoe, it was a great experience.

残念なことにツアー当日の天気が悪く、波が高かったためウミガメ遭遇ポイントは行けませんでした。
曇っていましたが、バラス島には上陸できました。
西表島では30分程度のハイキングとカヌーでの散策で、自然を満喫できました。
カヌーに乗る機会もあまりないため、いい経験になりました。

This time, because it was summer vacation, the cave was very crowded, and rather than feeling "beautiful!" it was more like treading water and waiting in line... In the end, it was great to be able to take a photo after waiting.

Previously, when I participated in the off-season, I was able to feel the wonder, so I think if you go, it would be more magical and you could appreciate the colors of the sea better when it's not crowded.

今回は夏休みということもあり洞窟の中はとても混んでおり、「きれい！」と感動するよりは立ち泳ぎで、順番待ちをしているという感じでした・・・。
最後は順番待ちのかいあり写真は撮れて良かったです。

以前、オフシーズンに参加した際は感動できたので、行くなら混んでない時の方が幻想的な海の色に感動出来ると思います。

On my first trip to Okinawa, I absolutely wanted to try marine activities, so I invited my university club members and made a reservation. Among my friends, there were some who weren't very comfortable with the ocean and felt anxious, but the staff were very kind and chatted with us, creating a relaxed atmosphere throughout our time there. The Okinawan dialect that the staff occasionally spoke was really cute. We were so excited about snorkeling that we arrived quite a bit earlier than our reservation time, but they let us take a shower to cool off, making the wait enjoyable. The day we participated was sunny, and even after showering, we dried off quickly, but it was nice to be able to listen to the instructions in the shade.

The Blue Cave was very popular and quite crowded, but while waiting, we had fun chatting with the entertaining staff member who accompanied us, and then... a truly breathtaking view unfolded before us! I strongly recommend experiencing this at least once in a lifetime.

初めての沖縄旅行では絶対にマリンアクティビティがしたい！と思い、大学時代のサークルメンバーを誘って申し込みました。友人の中には、海があまり得意ではなく不安な気持ちを抱えている者もいましたが、お店の皆さんが色々と優しく話しかけてくれたので、終始和んだ雰囲気で参加させて頂くことが出来ました。お店の方がたまに話す沖縄の方言？がとても可愛かったです。シュノーケリングをとても楽しみにしていた私たちは予約の時間よりもかなり早めについてしまいましたが、シャワーで水浴びさせてくれたりして、待ち時間も楽しく過ごさせて頂きました。参加させて頂いた日は晴天で、シャワーを頭から被ってもすぐに乾いてしまうくらいでしたが、日陰で説明が聞けるのも良かったです。
青の洞窟は大人気でかなり混雑していましたが、待ち時間の間も同行してくれたお店の面白いお姉さんと楽しく話しながら待っていると、、、そこには本当に感動の絶景が広がっていました！一生に一度はこの体験をされることを強くオススメしたいです。

Considering our travel schedule, I was hoping to do some light snorkeling, and this two-hour session was perfect for us. After changing into wetsuits and receiving a basic explanation of snorkeling, we felt reassured as we headed to the spot. I was impressed that explanations were also provided in English for international guests, which is typical for a tourist destination.

Each staff member was assigned to a small group, taking photos for us, and the rental of underwater cameras was free, allowing us to take pictures freely. Since we planned to go to Kouri Island in the afternoon, we enjoyed chatting casually with the staff about places to eat along the way.

Above all, we had a wonderful time surrounded by the beautiful sea and the fish swimming by, making it feel like we were in an aquarium. The convenience of being able to take a shower right after coming out of the water is also one of the appealing aspects of this tour. The underwater camera rental was fantastic for me, and I'm still relishing the experience (laughs). Next time I visit, I would like to try diving as well. This trip has become so much better. Thank you very much.

旅行のスケジュール的にも、軽くシュノーケリング出来たらな~と思っていた所、こちらの２時間が私たちにはぴったりでした。ウェットスーツに着替え、シュノーケリングの基本的な説明もあり安心してスポットに向かう事もできました。 海外の方々には英語での説明もされており、さすが観光地だなという印象も受けました。

何人かに1人、スタッフの方が付いて下さり写真も撮っていただき、水中カメラのレンタルも無料という事で自由に写真を撮る事もできました。私たちは午後から古宇利島へ行く予定だったので、お昼ごはんは道中にこんなお店があるよ~などスタッフの方と気さくにおしゃべりも楽しむ事もできました。
何といっても、海の綺麗さと目の前を通り過ぎる魚にまるで水族館の中にでもいるような素敵な時間を過ごすことができました。 海から上がっても、すぐにシャワーを浴びれる手軽さもこのツアーの魅力の一つかなとも思います。 水中カメラのレンタルが私には最高で、終わった後もその余韻に浸ってます（笑） 次回、また訪れる時にはダイビングにも挑戦してみたいと思います。旅行もすごくよりよい物になりました。ありがとうございました。

Since we were going to Okinawa, my companion and I talked about wanting to go snorkeling, and that's when we discovered the Blue Ocean's Blue Cave snorkeling tour! We made a reservation right away! I was worried about whether we would be able to snorkel since a typhoon had been approaching until the day before, but on the day of the activity, we were blessed with clear skies and no rain, so we were able to enjoy it safely! However, when I spoke with the staff, they mentioned that the tour had gone on as usual the day before! It seems that the Blue Cave snorkeling is not too affected by the weather.

We arrived at the cave after about a 5-minute boat ride! Each group of about ten people had a staff member with them, which made us feel safe entering the water! The moment we got into the sea, I was so moved by the incredible clarity of the water that I was left speechless! When we participated, it was just before noon on a Sunday, so it was very crowded, and we were stuck in a bit of a traffic jam inside the cave for about 30 minutes. However, during that time, the staff took photos for us, and we were able to take our time exploring the cave, making it a very meaningful experience!

We also had individual photos taken at the spot that appeared the bluest inside the cave! The pictures we got there are truly treasures for a lifetime! They were so beautiful and mystical, even more stunning than the images I had seen online! I definitely want everyone to experience it for themselves!

After exiting the cave, we returned to the boat. During the activity, we were lent an underwater camera, so we were able to take many wonderful underwater photos! The staff were very kind and attentive, which allowed us to participate with peace of mind throughout the experience!

We visited many other places during our trip to Okinawa, but the Blue Cave snorkeling was the most fun and left the most lasting memories! It was truly, truly amazing! Thank you so much!

せっかく沖縄に行くならシュノーケリングしたいねと連れと話していたところ、こちらのブルーオーシャンさんの青の洞窟のシュノーケルを発見！！すぐに予約させて頂きました！！！前日まで台風が来ていたので、無事にシュノーケリング出来るのか不安に思っていましたが、当日はなんとか雨も降らず晴天に恵まれ無事にアクティビティをする事が出来ました♪しかし、スタッフさんにお話を伺うと前日も通常通り行われていたとの事♪♪青の洞窟のシュノーケリングはあまり気候に左右されないんだそうです( ´ ▽ ` )♪船に乗って5分ほどで洞窟へ到着しました！！！10人程のグループに1人スタッフさんが付いてくださり、安心して海に入る事が出来ました！海に入った瞬間はあまりに綺麗な海の透明度に言葉を失う程感動しました！！！！！！私たちが参加した時は日曜日のお昼前という事もあってか、大混雑で洞窟の中では30分くらい渋滞していました。しかし、その時間もスタッフさんが写真を撮ってくださったり、洞窟の中をじっくり見る事が出来たりととても有意義な時間でした！♪そして、洞窟の中にある1番青く見えるスポットでペアごとに個人撮影をしてもらいました！！そこで撮って頂いた写真は本当に一生の宝物です！とっても綺麗で神秘的で、インターネットで見ていた画像よりも何倍も綺麗に感じました！是非みなさんにも実際に行って見てもらいたいです！！！
そして洞窟の外へ出て船に乗ってもどりました。アクティビティ中は水中カメラを貸して頂いていたので何枚も素敵な水中写真を撮る事が出来ました！スタッフさんもとても優しくて気配り上手でしたので終始安心して参加する事が出来ました！！
沖縄旅行では他にもたくさんのところへ行きましたが、青の洞窟シュノーケリングが1番楽しく、心に残る思い出になりました！！！本当に本当に最高でした！ありがとうございました(*^^*)

The whole family had our first snorkeling experience! The instructions were thorough, and we felt comfortable participating.

Since it was our first time, we didn't have the chance to film ourselves, so we had someone take photos and videos for us.

It was the day the rainy season ended, and the weather was great. We were able to see a beautiful ocean that exceeded our expectations. I thought the kids might be scared, but they were actively enjoying it instead. We got a lot of wonderful photos, making for great memories!

We want to go again! (*^^*)

家族全員、シュノーケル初体験！
丁寧に説明して頂き、安心して参加する事が出来ました。

初体験なので動画を撮る余裕がなかったので、デジカメ撮影と動画と同時に撮ってもらいました。

ちょうど梅雨明けの日で天気もよく、想像以上に綺麗な海を見る事ができました。
子ども達は怖がるかも…と思いきや、積極的に楽しんでいました。
素敵な写真もたくさん撮って頂き、いい記念になりました！

またいきたいです(*^^*)

A trip to Okinawa with my daughter!
We participated in a plan that gathered at 10 AM on June 27 (Monday).
A staff member from our group guided us from the boat to swim into the cave. There was an unusual traffic jam at that time, but we thought that if we didn't endure this, we wouldn't get to see the breathtaking views, so we floated and waited for 30 minutes.
It was worth the wait because the blue was so vibrant!!! It felt like it was glowing! I was amazed by the beauty and the natural phenomenon. The staff also took great photos for us.
After leaving the cave and before returning to the boat, they took pictures of us feeding the fish and floating in the sea.
We received a CD full of memories that we couldn't capture ourselves, and I think this price is quite a bargain.
Thank you for a fun and wonderful time.

娘と二人旅の沖縄旅！
６月27日（月）の10時集合のプランに参加しました。
1グループに１人のスタッフが、船から降りて泳いで洞窟に案内してくれました。この日この時間は、いつにない渋滞ができてました。でも、これを我慢しまいと、絶景には会えない訳だから、30分ぷかぷか浮かんで並びました。
でも並んだ甲斐あって、青い青い青い！！！青く光ってる感じ！きれいなのと自然現象に、びっくりでした。貴重な写真もスタッフがバッチリ撮ってくれます。
洞窟を出て、船に戻るまでの間は、お魚にエサをあげて戯れてる写真や海の忮から浮かんでる私たちを撮ってくれる。
自分たちでは、撮れない思い出がいっぱいのCDもついてて、この価格は、かなりお得だと思います。
楽しい、素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

I had always wanted to dive in the Blue Cave of Okinawa, so I participated with a friend this time. I actually wanted to try deep diving, but since I had to catch a flight that day, I chose snorkeling instead. After putting on a wetsuit, life jacket, and fins, we moved by boat to the cave's side, and from there, we swam into the cave. The water inside and around the cave was incredibly clear, and there were many fish I had never seen before, making me feel as if I were in an aquarium. The cave was dimly lit, which made me a bit anxious, but I felt reassured as the instructor guided us. When I looked underwater in the cave, light streamed in from outside, and the entire underwater scene sparkled in turquoise blue, which was very mystical. During the fish feeding experience, there were so many fish and they were so close that I felt a bit scared, but I think it was a great experience. The waves were somewhat high that day, so I got a little seasick, but it became a wonderful memory that I will never forget.

以前から沖縄の青の洞窟に潜ってみたいと思っていたので今回友人と参加させていただきました。本当は体験ダイビングで深くまで潜ってみたいと思っていたのですが、当日飛行機に乗らなければならなかったためシュノーケリングを選択しました。ウエットスーツとライフジャケットとフィンを装着後、洞窟の側までボートで移動し、そこからは泳いで洞窟の中へ入りました。洞窟内およびその近辺は海水が大変澄んでおり、見たことがないような魚もたくさんいて、まるで水族館にいるかのような気分でした。洞窟内は薄暗く少し不安もありましたが、インストラクターの方が誘導してくださるので安心できました。洞窟内で水中を覗いてみると、外からの光が射し込み、水中全体がターコイズブルーに輝いていてとても神秘的でした。また、魚の餌やり体験ではあまりにも魚の数が多いのと、距離が近いのとで怖くなったしまうほどでしたがいい経験ができたと思います。当日は波がやや高かったので、少し酔ってしまいましたが一生忘れられないいい思い出になりました。

If you're going to Okinawa, I wanted to experience some ocean activities, and I happened to see a monitor tour and signed up for it.

There were two of us participating, and one had zero experience with snorkeling, while the other (me) had only done it a little at a resort overseas, so I was honestly a bit anxious. However, the staff were very thorough in teaching us how to wear the gear, how to enter the water, and how to tread water, which was reassuring.

At first, I was still a bit unaccustomed, but gradually I started to enjoy it, and I was able to fully appreciate the beauty of the blue cave. Feeding the fish was also an amazing experience!

Many beautiful fish came to us, more than I had imagined, and I was so captivated that I forgot my age (laughs). It felt like being inside an aquarium, and I realized this is an experience you can only have in the waters of Okinawa.

I also took pictures of the fish and my friend swimming with an underwater camera that was rented for us. I thought this was an experience I wouldn't usually have. It's a pity that I didn't get many good photos because my skills weren't great (laughs).

My friend was initially scared to enter the water, but by the end, she said, "I want to do it again." It seems like she had a lot of fun.

If I have the chance again, I would love to enjoy snorkeling in the waters of Okinawa! Thank you very much to the staff who supported this precious experience!!

沖縄に行くならば、海のアクティヴィティを体験したいと思っていたところ、モニターツアーをたまたま目にして申し込みました。
女性二人での参加で、しかも一人はシュノーケリングの経験がゼロ、もう一人（私）も海外のリゾート地で本当にちょろっとやったことがあるだけで、正直少し不安もありました。
ですが、スタッフさんがウエアや装着具の身に着け方、海に入るやり方、立ち泳ぎの仕方など、とても丁寧に教えてくださったので心強かったです。
最初はそれでもやはり少し不慣れでしたが、次第に楽しめるようになりましたし、青の洞窟の色の美しさも満喫できました。
お魚の餌付けもとても素晴らしい経験でした！
想像以上に綺麗な魚たちがたくさん寄ってきてくれて、思わず歳も忘れて夢中になるほどでした（笑）。
まるで水族館の中にいるみたいな光景で、これは沖縄の海でなければ体験できないなと感じました。
レンタルしてくださった水中カメラで、魚たちや泳いでる友達を撮影も。これもいつもはできない経験だなと思いました。
腕前がイマイチなので、良い写真が少なかったのだけが残念ですが（笑）。
友達は最初、海に入ることを怖がっていましたが、終わる頃には「またやりたい」と言うほどに。それだけ楽しかったようです。
また機会があれば、沖縄の海でシュノーケリングを楽しみたいと思います！
貴重な経験のサポートをしてくださったスタッフさん、どうもありがとうございました！！

The weather was a bit bad, so we couldn't do a beach entry. I'm glad we had made a reservation for a boat entry. It was reassuring to have one guide for each group. They took photos at various points, which became great memories. The color of the sea was beautiful as well.

少し天候が悪くビーチエントリーは出来ない日でした。
ボートエントリーで予約しておいて良かったです。
一組にガイドが1人付いてくれるので安心でした。
いろいろなポイントで写真も撮ってくれて記念になりました。
海の色も綺麗で良かったです。

I participated with a friend. On our way to the shop, we weren't sure about the location of the store and parking, so we called for directions. The response was very good, but I think it would be clearer if there was a sign with the shop's name in the parking lot.

After arriving at the shop, we filled out some forms, put our valuables in a locker, and handed over the SD card for the underwater camera before changing in the changing room. The changing room was a bit cramped, and it was already full of bags.

After changing, we waited a little and then moved towards the port as a group. We boarded the boat and set off for the Blue Cave! The view of the beautiful sea from the boat was fantastic! While on the boat, there was a detailed explanation of snorkeling, which I think would be reassuring for first-timers.

We arrived in front of the cave in about 5 to 10 minutes, split into several groups, and jumped into the water following the guide's instructions. I had snorkeled before, but I felt uneasy in the deeper areas, so I held onto the guide's float as we headed to the cave. It seemed there were a lot of people on the day we participated, as we bumped into others several times on the way to the cave, and it was quite crowded inside as well. Still, the color of the cave was just as I imagined, and I was moved! I was also glad to have some photos taken.

After exiting the cave, we received fish food and had a fish feeding time. This was unexpectedly fun and exciting! The greedy fish came towards the food in my hand. It's not often that so many fish come close while snorkeling, so it was amazing to see them up close! We were also given an underwater camera, which allowed us to take our own favorite photos. The guide found a clownfish (Nemo) and dove down to show us the spot, so we were able to see various fish.

The fun time passed quickly, and we then returned to the shop on the boat. The Blue Cave, which I had always wanted to visit, was just as great as I had hoped. The guide was really kind and a great person, which allowed me to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. Everyone else was also very friendly and easy to talk to. This became the best memory of my trip to Okinawa! Thank you very much.

友人と二人で参加しました。店に向かう際、店と駐車場の場所がわからず、電話で教えてもらいました。その時の対応はとても良かったですが、駐車場にショップの名前の書かれた看板があるとわかりやすいと思いました。
ショップに到着後用紙の記入をし貴重品をロッカーに入れ、水中カメラに使うSDカードを預けて、その後更衣室で着替えを済ませました。更衣室は少々狭く、既に荷物がたくさんあるところにバッグを入れるような状態でした。
着替えを済ませ少々待機し、そこからみんなで港の方に移動しました。ボートに乗り込み青の洞窟へ出発！ボートからの綺麗な海の眺めも最高でした！ボートに乗ってる際に詳しくシュノーケルの説明もあり、初めての方でも安心だと思います。
5～10分程度で洞窟の前に到着し、いくつかのグループに別れて担当の方の指示で海の中に飛び込みました。シュノーケルはしたことありましたが、深いところだと不安だったので、担当の方の浮き輪につかまって洞窟まで向かいました。参加した日は人が多かったのか、何度も人にぶつかりながら洞窟まで行き、洞窟の中もかなり人がいっぱいいる状態でした。それでも洞窟の中は想像通りの青色で、感動しました！！写真も何枚か撮っていただけて良かったです。
その後洞窟を出て洞窟の前で魚の餌をもらい、魚の餌やりタイム。これが想像以上におもしろくて興奮しました！食いしん坊の魚が私の手の餌を目掛けて向かってきました。シュノーケルをしていてもこんなに魚が寄ってくることはないので、間近で魚を見れて最高でした！水中カメラも渡されて自分たちで好きな写真を撮れて良かったです。担当の方がクマノミ(ニモの魚)を見つけて潜って場所を教えて下さり、いろんな魚が見れて良かったです。
楽しい時間はあっという間に過ぎてしまい、その後ボートに乗りショップへ戻りました。ずーっと行きたかった青の洞窟は期待通り最高でした。そして担当して下さったお姉さんが本当に優しくて良い方だったので、安心してシュノーケルを楽しむことがでしました。他の方も皆さんとても話しやすく良い方ばかりでした。沖縄旅行の中で一番の思い出になりました！！ありがとうございました。

I participated with my elementary school daughter, but I was concerned that the snorkel she used was covered in mold, especially since it's the part you breathe through. My snorkel also had mold at the joint, but it was better than hers. Since it was my daughter's first experience with snorkeling, I hoped she wouldn't end up disliking it because of that.

The changing area was cramped, and the shower in the area I used didn't have hot water.

However, the women in charge were very nice, and the view of the Blue Cave was beautiful, so I appreciated that aspect.

That said, there were quite a few participants from China.

小学生の娘と参加しましたが、娘の使うシュノーケリングの管の部分がカビだらけで息を吸う部分なのに…と思いました。
私のもジョイント部分がカビだらけでしたが、娘のものよりはマシでした。
娘はシュノーケリング初体験だったので、これで嫌いにならなければいいなあと思いました。
着替えるところも狭くてシャワーは私の使ったところはお湯が出ませんでした。

でも、担当の女性の方々はとても良い方で青の洞窟も綺麗に見えたのでその点はよかったと思います。

それにしても中国の方の参加が多いですね…。

I participated with three friends.
Everyone was excited since it was their first time snorkeling, but there was also some nervousness!
However, by the time we arrived at the Blue Cave, thanks to the staff member who chatted with us and kindly explained everything, we were just excited!
When we finally arrived at the cave, I started to feel a bit unwell, but the staff member calmly took care of me, so I felt reassured and quickly regained my energy!
The Blue Cave was a mystical world, so beautiful that it took my breath away.
The photos taken there are my absolute favorites!
After that, we went outside and enjoyed snorkeling! We fed the fish and got to know them, and the view, which was beautifully clear down to the bottom, made me feel like I was in a dream.
It became the most enjoyable memory of my trip to Okinawa!
I definitely want to participate again the next time I come to Okinawa!
However, since you can't get there without a car from the city center, I thought it would be much easier to participate if there were shuttle services available!
Thank you so much for providing such a wonderful experience this time.

友達3人で参加しました。
みんな初めてのシュノーケリングなので楽しみ！ももちろんですが緊張もありました。。！
でも、スタッフのお姉さんが楽しく話しかけてくれたり優しく説明してくれたので、青の洞窟に着く頃には楽しみ！だけになっていました♡
いよいよ着いた洞窟前に少し気分が悪くなってしまったのですが、スタッフのお姉さんが冷静に対応してくれたので安心してすぐに元気になりました！！
青の洞窟は神秘的な世界でため息が出るほど綺麗でした。
ここで撮ってもらった写真がとってもとってもお気に入りです！
その後は外に出てシュノーケリングを楽しみました！お魚のエサをもらってお魚と仲良くなったり泳いだり、下まで綺麗に透き通って見える景色は夢の中にいる様な気分でした。。♡
沖縄旅行で一番楽しい思い出になりました！
次また沖縄に来た時にも絶対に参加したいです！
でも、都心部から来るのに車がないと来れないので送迎サービスなどがあればもっともっと参加しやすくなるなぁと思いました！
今回はとっても素敵な体験をさせていただいて、本当にありがとうございました。

We participated as a pair in mid-June. The conditions were fantastic, especially since it was just after the rainy season!

When we arrived at the meeting point at Manza Cape, we were greeted by a beautiful blue sky with not a cloud in sight, crystal-clear waters, intense sunlight that felt like it was piercing our skin, and a very enthusiastic instructor, Osaka-san.

This is truly THE OKINAWA!! Our excitement was already building before the tour even started!

After changing into our wetsuits and descending the stairs to enter the sea from the rocky area, Osaka-san exclaimed, "Woohoo!! It feels amazing when water gets into the wetsuit!!" He looked like he was having the most fun! With Osaka-san leading the way, we enjoyed snorkeling while heading towards the Blue Cave.

Thanks to the great conditions that day, the water was so clear that we could see deep into the coral, and we spotted quite a few large fish in the distance. Colorful tropical fish were swimming close to the surface, completely distracting us from the Blue Cave as we got lost in snorkeling! We played with many different types of fish and were already feeling satisfied even before reaching the Blue Cave. (Just between us, the underwater photos we received later had so many fish that our faces were barely visible! Haha!)

As for the Blue Cave itself, it was breathtaking! The cave was illuminated by a blue light from below, creating a stunning emerald blue view all around! It was truly impressive! The photos we received were beautiful, and we were very satisfied! They looked so good they could be featured in a magazine!

Overall, it was an incredibly satisfying tour! The scenery, the tour content, and instructor Osaka-san were all top-notch! I guarantee 100% value for money!

*As a side note, since our schedule was undecided, we were approached by Osaka-san and ended up trying out sea bob the next day, which he said is currently the most recommended marine sport. It's like a motorized boogie board that you can steer yourself, allowing you to dive and swim among the corals or chase schools of fish! (*^o^*) It's said to be a new marine sport with only a few units available in Japan, so I highly recommend it too!

6月中旬に2人で参加しました。梅雨明け直後という事もあってコンディションは抜群！
待ち合わせの場所の真栄田岬に到着すると雲ひとつない綺麗な青空、透明度MAXの美しい海、肌を突き刺すような強烈な日差し、そしてかなりテンション高めなインストラクターの大坂さんが迎えてくれます。

これこそまさにTHE・OKINAWA！！ツアー前からテンションが上がります！！

ウェットスーツに着替えて階段を降りた岩場から海に入ると、「フォー！！ウェットスーツに水入れると超気持ちいいですよー！！」と誰よりも楽しそうな大坂さん！笑
そんな大坂さんに案内され、シュノーケリングを楽しみつつ青の洞窟へと向かいます。
が、、、、当日のコンディションに恵まれたおかげか水中もかなり深くのサンゴまで透き通り、遠目ですが結構大きめのお魚さんもチラホラ。。。海面でも色鮮やかな柄の熱帯魚が引くほど寄ってきて、もう青の洞窟そっちのけでシュノーケリングに夢中！！
かなりたくさんの種類の魚と戯れ、青の洞窟に到着する前からもう満足度高めです。笑
(後ほどお送り頂いたシュノーケリングの水中写真では魚が多すぎて我々の顔がほとんど写っていなかったのはここだけの話！！笑)

肝心の青の洞窟ですが、海の下から青いライトで照らされているかのように洞窟の中が一面エメラルドブルーの絶景！！圧巻です！！
お送り頂いた写真もきれいで大満足！そのままま雑誌に載せられるんじゃないかというほど綺麗な出来栄え！笑

全体を通して大満足のツアーでした！
景色もツアー内容もインストラクターの大坂さんも最高！コスパ100%保証です！

※余談ですがスケジュールが未定だった我々は大坂さんにナンパされ、翌日に大坂さん曰く今1番のオススメマリンスポーツというシーボブに挑戦させて頂きました。
モーターのついたビート板のようなもので、自分で操縦して潜水しながらサンゴのあいだを泳いでみたり、魚の群れを追いかけてみたりなんて事も出来ちゃいます(*^o^*)
まだ日本に数台しかない新たなマリンスポーツとの事ですのでそちらもオススメですよ～！

I got a bit lost and ended up being late, but the staff called me and guided me to the location. Since I kept everyone waiting, I quickly prepared and decided to explain later.

I thought the underwater photos would be available for download on the site since it mentioned a photo gift, but I learned that an SD card is needed to receive the photos. If you don’t have one, you have to buy it for 1,000 yen, so I purchased one.

After returning home, I saw in the reviews that it mentioned needing an SD card. I have plenty at home, so I wish that had been noted on the site. However, it was very generous that there was only one camera for the group, and we could take unlimited photos!

After a short walk to the nearby fishing port and arriving at the boat, the staff provided a thorough explanation to us, who arrived late, and we quickly reached the entrance of the Blue Cave.

At first, we entered the cave as a group. Since there were many participants from other tour companies, it got a bit chaotic with fins bumping into each other while we moved forward. However, the staff explained the cave while we held onto the float and closed our eyes.

After a while, we opened our eyes to see a beautiful emerald green view.

After exiting the cave, we received some food and had a bit of free time before gathering again. During that time, the staff took photos for us and kindly pointed out where the fish were, which made me very satisfied.

Since everyone returns together, the changing room can get a bit messy, but they also lent us hair dryers if needed, which was sufficient.

I would like to participate again!

少し道に迷い時間を過ぎてしまうとスタッフさんから電話を頂き案内後、到着
皆さんを待たせてしまったので説明は後でという事で急ぎ準備しました。
水中写真プレゼントと書いてあったのでサイトでダウンロードするのかな？と思っていましたが写真を貰うにはSDカードが必要との事…
なければ1000円で買わないと写真は貰えないとの事で購入

帰ってから体験談を見たら書いてくれていましたがSDカードが必要なら家にたくさんあったのでサイトにもそう記載してほしかったです、、
ただ、カメラはグループで1つ、しかも自由に撮り放題はすごく良心的！

目の前の漁港まで少し歩き船に到着後、遅れて来た私達にしっかり説明して頂きあっという間に青の洞窟入り口に到着

初めはグループでついていって洞窟に入ります。
他のツアー会社からの参加者もたくさんいるので進んでいる間、他の方の足のヒレが当たったり、当てたりと少しゴチャゴチャしますが、
案内のスタッフさんに洞窟を説明してもらいながら浮き輪につかまり目をつむる

しばらくして開けるとエメラルドグリーンのとっても綺麗な景色が見えました

洞窟を抜けると餌を貰い少し自由行動して集合します
その間も写真を撮ってもらったり、魚の場所など教えてくれてとっても優しいスタッフさんには大満足

みんなで帰ってくるので更衣室はゴチャゴチャしちゃうのはありますが必要ならドライヤーも貸してくれたりと充分でした。

また参加したいと思います

My first snorkeling experience!
The weather was great and perfect for the beach! The Blue Cave was very beautiful, and it was fun to feed the fish and interact with them.
The guide was also very considerate of everyone, which was nice!
Next time, I definitely want to try diving as well.

初めてのシュノーケリング！
とてもいい天気で海日和！青の洞窟はとてもキレイで、魚に餌付けをして触れ合うこともでき楽しかったです。
ガイドさんも皆んなに気を使ってくれて良かったです！
次ばぜひダイビングも体験してみたいです。

Okinawa was unfortunately under rainy skies, but the sea was unaffected! On this day, there was no wind and the waves were calm. My niece and I set off with our guide, Mr. Osaka.

After changing, we walked down the stairs at the cliff and entered the sea from the rocky area below. After some instructions, we quickly began snorkeling towards the cave! Underwater, we could see not only fish but also people diving.

It was about 100 meters to the cave, but we chatted and took our time, making it there easily. We entered through a slightly narrow opening, and there were several groups around us. One by one, we went in, and with our eyes closed, we were pulled to the best position… and when we opened our eyes, the beautiful blue light spread out before us!

We happened to be the only ones in the cave at that moment, and we took many wonderful photos!

After playing for a while, we headed back from the cave. On the way, when we tried feeding the fish… they all came rushing in! Energetic fish swarmed around us, it was so much fun!

Thank you for a delightful and safe experience! I would love to bring my mother along next time.

沖縄は生憎の梅雨空でしたが、海は関係な〜い！
この日は風もなく波が穏やか。私と姪の二人でガイドの大坂さんと出発。

着替えた後崖下の階段を歩いて下り、すぐ下に続く岩場から海に入っていきます。インストラクションのあと、早速洞窟に向かってシュノーケリング開始！海中では魚以外にダイビングをしている人達も見えます。
洞窟までは100メートル程ですが、お話ししながらゆっくり進んでラクに到着。
少し狭まった入り口から入るのですが、周りには何組かのグループもいます。
順番に入っていき目をつぶったままベストポジションまで引っ張ってもらい…目を開けると！あの綺麗な光を放つブルーが目の前に広がります！
ここでたまたま洞窟内には私達だけになり、沢山の素敵な写真を撮っていただきました！

ひとしきり遊んだ後、洞窟を後に引き返します。途中でお魚達にエサをあげてみると…‼︎ みんなものすごく食いついてくる！元気な魚たちがドバーッと周りには群がり、楽しい〜＼(^o^)／

楽しくて安心な体験、有難うございました！
次回は母を連れてまた参加したいです。

This time, I participated with a foreign friend who speaks only basic Japanese, but all the staff, including the instructor, were very friendly and kind, and my friend was extremely satisfied. I definitely want to use this service again on my next trip to Okinawa and would like to recommend it to other foreigners as well.

今回日本語が片言レベルの外国人の友人を連れての参加でしたが、インストラクター含めスタッフの方はみなさんとっても愛想が良く親切で、友人も大変満足していました。是非次回沖縄旅行の際にも利用させて頂き、外国人にも紹介させて頂きたいと思います。

The instructor was very friendly and attentive. They took us to the Blue Cave at a slow pace that matched our ability, and provided a lot of explanations about the fish. Both my mother and I weren't very confident in our physical strength, but thanks to the instructor, we were able to enjoy ourselves with peace of mind. They also took many photos for us, and the time flew by. Thank you very much.

インストラクターの方がとても気さくで、丁寧でした。私たちのペースに合わせゆっくり青の洞窟まで連れて行ってくれ、お魚の説明も沢山して下さいました。私も母も余り体力に自信がなかったのですが、インストラクターの方のおかげで安心して楽しむことができました。
写真も沢山とっていただき、あっという間の時間でした。ありがとうございました。

I participated on Sunday ☻. I was a bit anxious since it was my 5-year-old son's first time snorkeling, but the staff treated us kindly, and my child was completely unafraid and had a great time! It seems he has fallen in love with playing in the ocean, and we, as parents, were very satisfied ☻. They took a lot of photos and sent them to us right away! Snorkeling in the Blue Cave with my child was a small dream of mine, so I am truly grateful! I would like to use this service again!

日曜日に参加しました☻
5歳の男の子(シュノーケル初めて)との参加で、少し不安もありましたが…
スタッフさんが丁寧に接してくれ、子どもも全く怖がらず楽しい！また行こうね！と海遊びが大好きになった様で親も大満足でした☻
写真も沢山撮って頂き直ぐに送って下さりました！
青の洞窟で子どもと一緒にシュノーケルをするのが小さな夢だったので本当に感謝です！
また利用したいと思います！

My partner is an experienced scuba diver, but I was very anxious since it was my first time snorkeling and I can't swim. However, I participated as a birthday challenge and to create memories. Contrary to my anxiety, thanks to our instructor Shion, I was able to experience an absolutely wonderful time in the sea. This has inspired me to try scuba diving next. The atmosphere among the other staff was also great, and I will definitely join Adventure Island's tours again when I visit Okinawa. Lastly, thank you for all your thoughtful care and for taking so many photos.

相方はスキューバー経験者ですが、私は初シュノーケリングに加えて泳げないので、とても不安でしたが、お誕生日の挑戦＆思い出にと参加しました。。不安とは裏原に、インストラクターのシオンさんのお陰で最高に素敵な海時間を体験する事が出来ました。これを機に次はスキューバーに挑戦したいと思います。他のスタッフの皆様の雰囲気も良く、又、沖縄を訪れる際には冒険島さんのツアーに参加させて頂きます。
最後になりましたが、色々なお気遣い、そしてたくさんの写真を撮って頂きありがとうございました。
