All Reviews for Okinawa Snorkeling

The staff were cheerful and nice.

Due to the boat swaying, about 7 out of 30 people ended up vomiting. There were various people, from children to adults, who vomited both going and returning... Everyone was holding black bags... It was quite an indescribable tour.

We had time for snorkeling twice, but the first time was just to get used to it. I thought I had entered, but I got out right away. I was waiting in line towards the back of the group to get into the water, so my time in the sea might have been shorter as a result.

I unexpectedly joined a tour to see sea turtles and paid the participation fee midway, but only one out of our family of four was able to see them.

It seems they were quite small and far away.

Maybe we were just unlucky...

The staff moved quickly and were always smiling, which was nice.

スタッフさんは明るくてよし。

船が揺れたため、30人中7にくらいが嘔吐してました。子供から大人まで様々な人が行きも帰りも嘔吐して、、、。
みんな黒い袋持って、、、
なんとも言えないツアーでした。

2回シュノーケルする時間ありましが
1回目は、体慣らす程度です。
入ったと思ったらすぐ上がりました。
海に入る列の後ろの方で順番待ちしてたので、余計海にいる時間が短かったのかもしれません。


急遽、海亀見れるツアーに
途中で参加費を払って体験しましたが
家族4人中見れたのは１人だけでした。

かなり遠くで小さく見えたみたいです。


運が悪かったのでしょうか。。



スタッフの方はテキパキ動いて
常に笑顔でよかったです。

The Pinay Sara Falls exceeded my expectations! The explanations about the plants and animals along the way were interesting and kept me engaged. You'll be walking more than you think, so it's essential to prepare your clothing and gear.

ピナイサーラの滝が想像以上でした！
道中の動植物の説明も面白く退屈しませんでした。
思ったより歩くので服装など準備は必須になります。

We participated as two families. It was our first time canoeing, and it was a valuable experience to feel the power of the magnificent mangrove nature. The subsequent trekking led us to the majestic Pinai Sara Falls, where we felt a mystical atmosphere, and it was truly moving! Jumping into the waterfall was incredibly refreshing! The snorkeling tour was also very satisfying, as we got to see beautiful coral and sea turtles. The guide talked a lot with us and was very considerate towards the children, which made us feel very safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience. I would like to try another tour as well. Thank you very much!

2家族で参加させてもらいました。
初めてのカヌーでマングローブの大自然の迫力を感じれて貴重な体験でした。その後のトラッキングは神秘的な空間を感じながら登った先に壮大なピナイサーラの滝は感動でした！滝壺ドボンも最高に気持ち良かったです！
シュノーケリングは綺麗な珊瑚やウミガメにも会えて大満足なツアーでした！
ガイドさんもたくさんお話してくれて
子どもたちへの気配りもして下さりとても安心して楽しく参加できました。
また違うツアーも体験してみたいと思いました。ありがとうございました。

I made a last-minute reservation for a canoe at Kabira Bay, and I was moved by its beauty beyond my imagination.

On the day of the trip, the weather was clear after the typhoon, and there were few people, which were great conditions. The other members of the group were friendly, and thanks to our cheerful and energetic guide, Yuuki, we were able to enjoy a wonderful time together.

Actually, even though my reservation was confirmed the night before, I received a call that it was fully booked for the morning and would be in the afternoon instead. There were also some misunderstandings about the meeting place, and I was feeling discouraged due to the high-pressure attitude of the phone receptionist. However, thanks to Yuuki and Kabira Bay, those feelings were blown away. Thank you! The night jungle tour was also fun, and I was able to enjoy a starry sky that felt like it was raining down.

I look forward to visiting Ishigaki Island again!

前夜に思い立って予約した川平湾のカヌー。想像以上の美しさに感動しました。
当日は台風後の晴れ、人も少ないという好条件。同じグループの人たちも穏やかで、元気で人懐っこい道産子ガイドのゆうきさんのおかげで和気あいあいと、贅沢な時間を楽しむことができました。

実は、前夜に予約確定してたのに当日の朝に満員だから午後にという連絡をもらい、その後も集合場所の勘違いなどがあり、高圧的な電話受付の方にテンションが下がって行きたくなくなっていたのですが、、、
ゆうきさんと川平湾のおかげで、そんな気持ちも吹き飛びました。ありがとう！夜のジャングルナイトツアーも楽しくて降ってくるような星空を満喫できましたよ。

また石垣島に行ったらよろしくお願いします！

It had been a while since I swam in the ocean, and I was quite tired, but the sea was so beautiful, and I was able to see many fish, which made me very satisfied! There was a little incident where my friend's fin came off, but we were able to keep going without stopping since we got a spare fin!

海で泳ぐのは久々で、かなり疲れたけど、すごく海が綺麗で沢山の魚を見ることができ大満足でした！
途中で友達のフィンが取れるハプニングがありましたが、変えのフィンを貰えたので止まることなく進めました！

I wanted to go to the Blue Cave, so I signed up for this tour, but for the past three weeks, due to issues with the waves and tide levels, we couldn't go, and it was changed to snorkeling at Shigira Beach.

It was disappointing, but the changed location of Shigira Beach had perfect facilities like the sea, food, and restrooms. Even after the typhoon, the water clarity was high, and it truly felt like a natural aquarium! The kids were also very satisfied. I'll save the Blue Cave for another opportunity.

After that, we moved to a different spot for my first experience with SUP, and the instructors were kind and warm, making it a lot of fun! Even after the tour ended and we parted ways, they kindly helped me with my private plans for the following days, and I plan to follow their advice tomorrow. Thank you, Kyoppi!

Also, one of the other instructors was from the same hometown, and we had a great time chatting about local niche topics. I hope you can reconcile with your dad soon (laughs).

Everyone, I highly recommend this tour!

青の洞窟に行きたくて、このツアーに申し込んだのですが、ここ3週間ほど波と潮位の問題で行けてないとのことで、シギラビーチのシュノーケリングに変更となりました。

残念でしたが、変更となったシギラビーチは海、食事、トイレなど設備が完璧に整ったビーチで、台風のあとでも海の透明度が高く、本当に自然の水族館のようでした！子どもたちも大満足でした。青の洞窟はまた次の機会に置いておきます。

その後、場所を少し移動してSUPの初体験をしたのですが、インストラクターの方々が親切で温かく、とても楽しめました！ツアーが終わって別れたあとも、翌日以降のプライベートの予定について親身に相談にのっていただき、明日は言われた通りに行動しようと思っています。きょっぴさん、ありがとうございました！

また、別のインストラクターの1人の方がピンポイントで地元がいっしょで、地元のマニアックな話で盛り上がり、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。早くお父さんと仲直りできるといいですね(笑)

みなさん、オススメのツアーですよ！

We participated as a family of five. It was our first time canoeing and stand-up paddleboarding, but we received thorough instructions, and everyone was thrilled. The snorkeling tour was even more enjoyable than we imagined, and the guide took plenty of photos, which made us very happy. The process from check-in to the end was smooth and reassuring. I highly recommend it.

家族5人で参加。カヌー、SUPは初めてでしたが、丁寧にレクチャーいただき、みんな大喜びでした。シュノーケリングツアーも想像以上に楽しく、ガイドさんにもたくさん写真を撮ってくれて大満足です。受付から最後までスムーズで安心でした。オススメです。

The weather was great, and it was the best.
The staff were very kind, thank you.

It was my first time snorkeling, but they taught me carefully, and I was able to participate with peace of mind.

I was also able to see sea turtles, which was wonderful.

天気も良く　最高でした
スタッフの方達も　とても親切でありがとうございました

初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが　丁寧に教えていただき　安心して参加できました

ウミガメも見られて　良かったです

The sea in Kerama was beautiful.

However, the tour had too many people. We were divided into groups for snorkeling, but when we got too close to other groups, we were told to separate! It was hard to hear while snorkeling underwater, so there were unavoidable parts to this, and I wished the organizers had considered this a bit more.

They rushed us when we were trying to get into the water or put on our masks. This tour wasn't suitable for me.

I couldn't enjoy it much, and most of the half-day was spent waiting on the boat.

Next time, I think I'll go for a smaller tour.

慶良間の海はキレイでした

でも、ツアーは人が多すぎて、、シュノーケルはグループに分かれましたが、途中で他のグループに近づいてしまうと離れてください！とかいわれるのですが、海の中ですし、シュノーケルしてるとよく聞こえなかったりもするので致し方ない部分もあり、もう少し運営側の考慮も欲しかったです。

海にはいるタイミングやマスク装着に手間取ってると急かさせるし、、私には向いていないツアーでした

あまり楽しめず、ボートで待っている時間が大半の半日となってしまいました

次回はもっとこじんまりしたツアーでいこうと思いました

I made a reservation for a mangrove canoe experience on a day trip to Iriomote Island. It turned out to be very good. Komasan was in charge, and she was wonderful; the canoe time was very enjoyable. The kids seemed to have fun too! Thank you very much! ⭐︎ Since the tour also included a visit to Yubu Island, we took a water buffalo cart and spent a leisurely time. We had a full day of fun!

日帰りの西表島でマングローブのカヌー体験をしたくて予約しました。
結果とても良かったです。
こまさんが担当してくださいましたが、
とても素敵でカヌーの時間もとても楽しかったです。子供達も楽しそうでした！
ありがとうございました⭐︎
由布島へのツアーもセットだったので
水牛車に乗ってゆっくりとした時間を過ごしました。一日しっかり楽しめました！

The explanation of coral ecology provided a great research opportunity for the children during summer vacation. We went snorkeling in the rain, but once we got into the water, there were no issues. The staff was very attentive, and we had a wonderful experience.

サンゴの生態から説明がはいり、子供たちにとって夏休み研究になる事柄でした。雨の中シュノーケルを行いましたが海に入ると問題なくまたスタッフの方が非常に気を配って頂き楽しく体験できました。

Thank you very much for this experience. I was completely satisfied with the day, enjoying the Pinai Sara Falls in the morning and snorkeling along with the mountains and sea of Iriomote Island in the afternoon. Additionally, I was fortunate to have a great guide, which allowed me to relax and enjoy the activities.

I have done snorkeling at over ten spots in Okinawa, but the coral in Iriomote was the best of all. I was also able to swim with sea turtles.

I definitely want to visit Iriomote Island again.

この度はありがとうごさいました。
午前にピナイサーラの滝、午後はシュノーケリングと西表島の山と海を1日で満喫できて、大満足です。
また、ガイドさんにも恵まれ安心して楽しめました。

シュノーケリングはこれまで沖縄で10ポイント以上行きましたが、どの海よりも最高に西表の珊瑚が素晴らしかったです。また、ウミガメとも一緒に泳ぐことができました。

また、是非西表島を訪れたいです。

As stated, the guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, making the experience incredibly enjoyable! They taught us various names of fish and took many wonderful photos! Swimming from Maeda Point allowed us to see plenty of fish along the way, and it was more fun than going by boat to the snorkeling spots! All the photos they took were beautiful and will be great memories. Some photos were available for a fee, but they kindly provided them for free via AirDrop! I will definitely rely on them again next time!

書いてある通り、とっても知識と遊び心のある親切丁寧なガイドさんですごく楽しかったです！
魚の名前もいろいろ教えてもらったり、素敵な写真もたくさん撮って下さいました！真栄田岬から泳いで連れて行ってくれるので、道中もたくさん魚が見れるし、船でシュノーケルスポットまで行くものよりも楽しかったです！
撮ってくださった写真がどれも素敵で、とっても思い出に残りました。
写真は有料のところもありましたが、こちらはエアドロップで無料で下さいました！
次回も絶対こちらでお世話になります！

I participated in a half-day mangrove canoe tour. The weather was great, and the breeze felt nice. The tour guide, Macchan, provided very clear explanations about the mangroves, which was wonderful. When I asked about the fruits in the mangrove forest, he kindly taught me about them. It was a very valuable experience.

半日のマングローブカヌーツアーに参加しました。
天気にも恵まれ、風が吹いてて気持ちよかったです。ツアーガイドのまっちゃんのマングローブの説明がとてもわかりやすくよかったです。マングローブ林になっていた果実について質問したところ丁寧に教えてくれました。
とても貴重な経験でした。

The sea at Kabira Bay was calm and very beautiful. We were in a canoe, but the stand-up paddleboarding also looked interesting. If we have the chance to come again, I would like to have Sugichan as our guide again. Thank you, Sugichan!

川平湾の海は静かでとても綺麗でした。
我々はカヌーでしたが、SAPも面白そうでした。次回来る機会があったらガイドはまた杉ちゃんがいいです。
杉ちゃんありがとうございました!

My wife and I, both in our mid-50s, went snorkeling for the first time. At first, I was worried about being unable to breathe through the snorkel and having water enter the mask, wondering how far I could go. However, I gradually got used to it and became more relaxed, allowing me to enjoy the beautiful scenery underwater. The guide's advice was spot on, and I was able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. Additionally, the stories about Miyako Island were fascinating, and I would like to visit Miyako Island next time. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

私も妻も50代半ばになって初めてのシュノーケリング。最初はシュノーケルをつけての口呼吸ができない、マスクの中に水が入るなどのトラブルが起きて、どこまで行けるかとても心配でした。
しかし、徐々に慣れてきて心にも余裕ができて海中の素敵な景色を見ることができました。
ガイドさんのアドバイスも的確で、安心してシュノーケリングを楽しむことができました。
また、宮古島についての話も興味深く、次回は宮古島へ行ってみたいと思います。
素敵な体験をありがとうございました。

We participated as a family of three, including my wife, our 11-year-old daughter, and myself. We were extremely satisfied with the plan that allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty of Iriomote Island, a UNESCO World Heritage site, in just one day! The guide was thorough and ensured our safety, helping us create wonderful memories. We also had many photos taken, and the underwater pictures are especially beautiful; I've looked at them many times since returning home.

The majestic jungle, stunning ocean, and rich natural experiences were truly amazing.

This is definitely a place we want to visit again. Thank you!

夫婦と11歳の娘と３人で参加しました。
世界自然遺産、西表島の自然を1日で満喫する事ができるプランに大満足です！
丁寧かつ安心安全なガイドで、最高の思い出を作る事ができました。また、写真もたくさん撮って頂き、特に海の中の写真は美しく帰って来てから何度も眺めています。
雄大なジャングルと美しい海、豊かな自然体験は本当に素晴らしいです。

また必ず訪れたい場所です。
ありがとうございました！

I participated in a mangrove tour on Iriomote Island! The guide, Shika-chan, was reliable and cheerful. With her smile and lively talk, the tour was filled with a fun atmosphere the entire time. As we moved through the mangrove forest, she explained the unique vegetation and wildlife of Iriomote Island in a clear and very detailed manner, leaving us amazed with many "Wow!" moments.

I learned about the natural charm and history of the island that you can't discover just by sightseeing, which was truly educational. The green reflections on the calm water and the sounds of wild birds that you can hear if you listen closely made for a wonderful experience that engaged all my senses.

Thank you so much, Shika-chan! I definitely want to come back again.

西表島でのマングローブツアーに参加してきました！
案内してくれたのは、頼もしくて明るいガイドのしかちゃん。笑顔と軽快なトークで、ツアー中ずっと楽しい雰囲気に包まれていました。マングローブ林の中を進みながら、西表島ならではの豊かな植生や生き物のことを、わかりやすく、しかもとても丁寧に説明してくれて、「へぇ〜！」と驚くことばかり。
ただ観光するだけでは知ることのできない自然の魅力や島の歴史も知ることができて、本当に勉強になりました。穏やかな水面に映る緑、耳を澄ませば聞こえてくる野鳥の声…五感すべてで西表島を満喫できた時間でした。
しかちゃん、本当にありがとうございました！また遊びに来たいです。

The snorkeling, the phantom island, and the mangrove canoeing were all fantastic experiences. The instructor was very kind and took many photos for us. If I have the opportunity to come back to Ishigaki Island, I would definitely like to experience it again.

シュノーケル、幻の島、マンゴローブカヌーと楽しい時間をくださり最高でした。インストラクターのお兄さんもとても親切で写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。また、石垣島に来る機会があれば是非もう一度体験させていただきたいと思います。

The day before our reservation, a tsunami warning was issued, and the warning was not lifted on the day of our experience. However, since we were staying another day, we were able to reschedule and participate. Marine leisure activities inherently come with some risks, so I really appreciated that they provided an alternative plan instead of pushing through.

It was our first time snorkeling as a parent-child duo, but the guide taught us carefully, and we were able to enjoy it safely! We saw many beautiful fish in the clear sea, and we were very satisfied. We also took a lot of photos, which added to our travel memories. Thank you very much!

予約していた前日に津波注意報が発表され体験日も注意報が解除されなかったのですが、次の日も滞在していたこともあって日程を振り替えてもらい参加しました。多少なりとも危険を伴うのがマリンレジャーですから、強行突破せずに代替案をくださるのがとても好感を持てました。
親子共に初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくださり安全に楽しめました！
透明度の高い海で綺麗な魚が沢山見れて大満足です。写真も沢山撮って頂き、旅の思い出が増えました。ありがとうございました！

Participated in the early morning tour. Despite being a popular spot during summer vacation, there were no other tour boats that day, and while there were some individuals visiting, it felt almost like a private tour. The tour's claims are definitely true!

I think early morning meet-ups can be tough while traveling, but the price is low, and it's definitely worth it.

早朝のツアー参加。
夏休み中にも関わらず、大人気の場所にも関わらず、当日他のツアー船も無く、個人で来てる方はいるけれども、まるで貸切状態。
ツアーの謳い文句に間違いなし！

旅先での早朝集合はキツイと思いますが、料金も安いし、その価値大アリです

From the beginning to the end, I was impressed by the courteous responses from everyone. I had a little anxiety about entering the sea, but there was a sense of consideration in the interactions and communication, which made me feel very safe and allowed me to enjoy myself. I was reminded once again of how wonderful the sea in Okinawa is. Thank you very much.
I apologize for being late to the meeting time and causing inconvenience. Even so, I was warmly welcomed... I truly appreciated it.

始まりから最後まで、どの方も丁寧な対応が印象的でした。海に入る不安が少しあったのですが、声かけややり取りの中にも気配りがあり、非常に安心して楽しむことができました。沖縄の海はやっぱり素敵だなぁと改めて思わせてもらいました。ありがとうございました。
集合時間に遅れてしまいご迷惑かけました。それでも優しく迎えてもらい…本当にありがたかったです。

On the day, the waves were high, and there was a possibility that the snorkeling tour would be canceled, but it was just barely able to go ahead, and I really feel lucky about that. Thanks to this, I was able to enjoy the colorful fish and coral reefs, and it was a lot of fun; it was a valuable experience. The photos taken were all beautiful and became great memories. Thank you very much.

当日は波が高く、シュノーケルツアーが中止になってしまうかもしれない状態でしたが、ギリギリ催行できて、本当に運が良かったと思っています。おかげさまで、色とりどりの魚たちやサンゴ礁を楽しむことが出来て、とても楽しかったですし、貴重な体験をさせていただきました。
撮っていただいた写真もどれもきれいで、良い思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました。

I experienced snorkeling for the first time in Okinawa, and I was truly moved by the beauty of the ocean. Surrounded by crystal-clear water and colorful fish, I genuinely felt that "it was great to have my first experience in Okinawa!" The staff at Marine Club Berry Naha were very polite, and their explanations were easy to understand, allowing me to enjoy the experience with peace of mind. The boat was also clean, and the service and atmosphere were wonderful; I feel that choosing this place was the right decision. I definitely want to come back next time, and I hope to visit again soon! Thank you very much.

沖縄で初めてシュノーケリングを体験しましたが、海の美しさに本当に感動しました。透明度の高い水と色鮮やかな魚たちに囲まれて、「初めてが沖縄で良かった」と心から思えました！マリンクラブベリー那覇店さんのスタッフの方々はとても丁寧で、説明も分かりやすく、安心して楽しむことができました。船上内も綺麗で、サービスや雰囲気も素晴らしく、ここを選んで正解だったと感じています。次回もぜひお願いしたいですし、また近いうちに訪れたいです！本当にありがとうございました。

I saw mangrove seeds for the first time! I learned about the decomposition cycle of fallen leaves that changes with low and high tides, and I also encountered shy crabs that appear at low tide. It was a fun canoe experience even for beginners. Thank you, Team Kantsu!

マングローブの種をはじめて見ました！干潮と満潮で変わる枯れ葉の分解サイクルを知り、干潮に現れるシャイなカニたちにも出会えて、初心者でも楽しくカヌー体験ができました、チーム関ありがとうございました！！

Thank you very much!
I was impressed by the underwater world I saw while snorkeling.
I want to come again!
Parasailing was also fun!

ありがとうございました！
シュノーケルで見た海の中の世界に感動しました。
またきたいです！
パラセーリングも楽しかったです！

I participated for the first time with my son. At first, I thought there wouldn't be any fish, but when we moved to the coral area, there were plenty, and we even saw a sea turtle by chance, which was fun! During the feeding, a lot of fish came close and pecked at us, which was amusing, and the instructor was kind, too. ^_^

息子と初参加しました。
最初魚いないかなーって思ったけどサンゴの方に移動したらたくさんいてウミガメも偶然見れて楽しかったです！
餌やりもかなり魚が近くにきて突いてきて面白かったしインストラクターのお姉さんも優しくてよかったです^_^

We went snorkeling for the first time as a family. Unfortunately, parasailing was canceled due to the wind, but we really enjoyed snorkeling. The guides were really nice, and we made many wonderful memories.

始めて家族でシュノーケリングをしました。
パラセーリングはあいにくの風で中止でしたがシュノーケリングはすごく楽しめました。
ガイドの人もすごくいい人達で色々な想い出ができました

We had a canoe experience as a family of three. The guide, Mr. Seki, provided clear explanations and communicated with all participants, which made us feel at ease throughout the experience. We learned a lot about Iriomote Island and the ecology of the mangroves.

They provided both a small paddle for our 8-year-old daughter and an adult-sized paddle, but she persevered and paddled with the adult paddle until the end. It was also very enjoyable to get out of the canoe to see the mangroves up close and touch the creatures living there.

Although it was our first canoe experience, it became a precious opportunity to feel the nature of Iriomote Island, and we created wonderful memories.

家族３人でカヌー体験をしました。
ガイドの関さんの説明がわかりやすく、また、参加者全員とコミュニケーションを取りながら進めてくださったので、終始安心して参加することがでしましたし、西表島のことやマングローブの生態のことなど色々と知ることができました。
８歳の娘には子供用の小さいパドルと大人と同じパドル両方貸してくださいましたが、最後まで大人と同じパドルで頑張って漕いでいました。
途中カヌーをおりてマングローブを近くで見たり、そこにすむ生き物に触れたりしたこともとても楽しかったです。
初めてのカヌー体験でしたが、西表島の自然を感じられるとても貴重な体験になり、いい思い出ができました。

It was my first marine activity, and I was nervous to participate, but I had a great time throughout the experience. The staff were very friendly, which helped me feel relaxed and able to take on the challenge. There were many international participants, but there were also a lot of staff who spoke English, so I felt at ease!

初めてのマリンアクティビティで、ドキドキの参加でしたが、体験全てを通してとても楽しかったです。スタッフの方をとてもフレンドリーに話して下さり、緊張せず挑戦することが出来ました。海外の方もたくさんいましたが、英語を喋れるスタッフさんも多くいたので、安心！
