All Reviews for Okinawa Snorkeling

There were nearly 40 participants in total, and it felt more lively than relaxed. We received some photos as gifts, but there was an uneven distribution in the number of photos among people, and our group ended up with fewer, which was disappointing. The staff were very accommodating, and I think we could have enjoyed it more if there had been fewer people.

参加人数が全員で40人近くいて、
ゆっくりというよりはガヤガヤという感じでした。写真もプレゼントいただきましたが、人によって枚数に偏りがあり、私たちグループは少なくがっかりしました。スタッフの方は、良く対応していただき、人数が少なければもっと楽しめたかと思います。

It was unfortunately rainy, and it was cold on the boat, but the water was warm and enjoyable! At the second spot, I only saw corals and fish, but at the third spot, as soon as we arrived, there was a sea turtle near the boat, and I was able to spend quite a while with it, so I could take some great photos with my camera.

Aichan, who was in charge, was energetic, cheerful, and easy to talk to, and the lunch bento was delicious! The boat had a small bath on the floor, hot water for the shower, and transportation to and from the hotel, plus they helped with underwater photography, which was great.

If only the weather had been clear and I could have taken pictures with the sea turtle, it would have been perfect. If I go again, I want to take photos with the sea turtle in nice weather! Thank you for letting me meet the sea turtle!

あいにくの雨で船の上は寒かったけど、海の中は寒くなくて楽しめました！
２つ目まではサンゴや魚にしか会えなかったけど、３つ目は着いてすぐに船の近くにウミガメがいて、しばらくの間ずっとウミガメと一緒に過ごせたので、カメラでもしっかり撮る事ができました
担当してくれたあいちゃんも、元気で明るく話しやすかったし、お昼のお弁当も美味しかったです！
船の床には小さめだけどお風呂があったり、シャワーも温水だったりホテルまでの送迎もあったり、水中カメラで撮影もしてくれたり良かったです
これで天気が雨でなく、ウミガメと一緒に撮れてたら言う事なかったです。
次行く事があれば、いい天気の中、ウミガメと一緒に撮りたいてす！
ウミガメに会わせてくれて、ありがとうございました

I went on a whirlwind tour with my two children and grandfather. I had gone snorkeling a few times before, but I had never encountered a sea turtle until this trip, where I finally got to meet one, fulfilling my long-held wish. My children, grandfather, and I were all very moved.

The weather was bad, and we got a bit seasick on the return boat due to exhaustion, but overall, we had a great time throughout the day. Most importantly, all the staff were kind, and my children said they want to go again.

We'll visit again around July! ^_^

子供2人と祖父を連れて弾丸ツアーへ。
今まで何回かシュノーケリングをしていたのですがウミガメと遭遇する機会なく今回はじめてツアーに参加しやっと念願のウミガメに会えました。
私を含め、子供達、祖父もとても感動しました。

天候が悪く、体力の消耗もあり、帰りの船で若干の船酔いはありましたが丸一日を通してかなり楽しめました。また何よりスタッフの方々皆が優しくて子供達もまた行きたいと言っていました。

また7月辺りに遊びに伺います^_^

Since it was just the two of us, we were grateful for the flexible tour proposal that included a visit to Yufu Island in the afternoon after the ferry cancellation due to bad weather.

During snorkeling, we were able to see plenty of sea turtles and fish even in the rain, and we enjoyed our first canoe ride, as well as a water buffalo cart experience.

We took lots of photos and were very satisfied. I highly recommend it.

私達2人だけだったので、悪天候による帰りフェリーの欠航というアクシデントも　午後から由布島観光のち大原港送りという柔軟なツアー提案をしていただき助かりました。
シュノーケリングでは雨でもたっぷりの海亀と魚に会え、初カヌーに乗り、さらに水牛車堪能。
写真もいっぱい撮ってもらえ、大満足です。
とてもおすすめです。

The mangrove sea kayaking was so much fun, it felt like exploring in a jungle! We couldn't go snorkeling due to the waves, but we changed our plan to go to Yubu Island by water buffalo. It was my first time riding a water buffalo cart, and it was incredibly cute and soothing! If I have the chance again, I would love to participate.

マングローブのシーカヤックはジャングルの中を探検しているみたいでとても楽しかったです！
シュノーケルは波の影響で出来ませんでしたが、由布島へ水牛で行くプランに変更になりました。
水牛車に乗るのが初めてでしたので、すごく可愛く癒されました！
また機会がありましたら、参加したいなと思います。

The weather was bad, and our initial plan for snorkeling was canceled due to strong winds, so we ended up doing SUP and canyoning instead, but both SUP and canyoning were incredibly fun. The staff at the shop were friendly, which made it even more enjoyable. I would love to try it again if I go back. Thank you for a great day!

天気も悪く、当初のシュノーケリングの予定が強風で出来なくなり、SUPとキャニオニングになりましたが、SUPもキャニオニングも最高に楽しかったです。お店のお兄さん達もフレンドリーでより楽しめました。また行ったらやってみたいです。１日ありがとうございました。

This is definitely a tour I would highly recommend. During snorkeling, I was amazed to see turtles, clownfish, and table corals (the turtles swam quite close to us, not wary of people at all, and were munching on seaweed, which was surprising). My sister, who is in Miyako Island, said that turtles are usually seen from a distance and don’t come that close, quickly swimming away. It might be because the people of Iriomote Island have a close and respectful relationship with the turtles and nature.

Also, my child found the canoeing to be really fun and kept talking about it after we got back. The rice balls we had for lunch in front of the waterfall were incredibly delicious. The wild boar we saw on the way back was also very cute. The wild boar was not at all scared and was munching on things that had fallen on the road, which was surprising. Everyone who participated in the tour with us was wonderful, and the staff from Monsoon were also great, making it a lovely memory.

ぜひオススメしたいツアーです。
シュノーケリングでは、亀やクマノミ、テーブルサンゴを見られて感動しました（亀はかなり近くで泳いでくれていて、人に警戒する事もなく、むしゃむしゃと海藻を食べていてびっくり）宮古島にいる妹が、亀は普通遠くで見つけても、そこまで近くにはこないし、すぐ遠ざかっていくものだと言ってました。
西表島の方々が、亀や自然と、大切に付き合っているからなのかもしれませんね。
また、子供はカヌーがすごく面白かったようで、帰ってからもその話ばかりしていました。
滝の前で食べるおにぎりのお弁当が、すごく美味しかったです。
帰りに見かけたうりぼうも、すごく可愛かったです。
うりぼうも、全然逃げずに道に落ちているものを、ムシャムシャ食べていてびっくり。
一緒にツアーに参加してくださっていた方も、皆さん素敵な方ばかりで、モンスーンの方も皆さん素敵な方で、良い思い出になりました。

We totally enjoyed the trip with the best service

We participated as a group of four, including two children aged 9 and 11. It seemed that about 40 people were on another tour to Kuula Falls, while we started from the cave. The children were excited, feeling like explorers with helmets and lights attached. We paddled through the mangroves on a stand-up paddleboard (SUP) and made it to just before Kuula Falls, where we were able to stand on the SUP sooner than we expected! The kids quickly got the hang of it and had a great time. We swam in the pool at the base of the falls, but we were the only four jumping in, which was funny.

Thanks to the guide's planning, we enjoyed Kuula Falls without the crowds, almost having it to ourselves. Our guide, Moja, was friendly and had a lovely smile. He kindly and thoroughly explained about the ocelots and mangroves to the children. Unfortunately, we experienced heavy rain (almost a downpour) at Baras Island, so we didn't get to see the stunning views. Our landing was brief, but I believe it would have been a wonderful sight if the weather had been clear. We could see the second Baras Island, which Moja mentioned he hadn't seen in three months.

Regarding the shower situation (it was cold) and the waiting time after lunch (which was a bit long), I think these issues may depend on the other tour groups and the season, but I hope they can be improved if possible. I was satisfied with the tour schedule and the guide's support. If I have the chance to come again, I would like to participate in another tour. Moja took a lot of photos for us (and for free) and sent them via LINE on the same day. Thank you, Moja! ^_^

9歳と11歳の子どもを含む4名で参加しました。
他のツアーでクーラの滝に行く方が40名ほどいたようで、私達は鍾乳洞からスタートしました。
ヘルメットにライトを装着で、探検のようだと子どもたちは喜んでいました。
マングローブの中をSUPで進み、クーラーの滝の手前まで行きましたが、思ったよりもすぐにSUPの上で立てました！子ども達もすぐに慣れ、楽しんでいました。滝壺で泳ぎましたが、飛び込んでいるのは私達4人だけでした笑
ガイドのプランニングのお陰で、クーラーの滝も混雑せず、ほぼ貸し切り状態でした。
ガイドのモジャさんは、気さくで笑顔が素敵でした。子ども達に優しく丁寧にヤマネコやマングローブのことなど説明してくれました。
バラス島は、あいにくの大雨(ほぼスコール)で絶景とはいきませんでした。数分の上陸でしたが、晴れていれば素晴らしい眺めだったと思います。
第二のバラス島が見えました。モジャさんは三ヶ月振りに見たそうです。
シャワーの件(寒い)、ランチ後の待ち時間(長め)の件は 他のツアーの方との兼ね合いや季節もあると思いますが、改善可能であれば検討してほしいです。
ツアーのスケジュール、ガイドの対応については満足です。また、来る機会があれば別のツアーにも参加してみたいです。
写真も沢山取ってくれ(しかも無料)、当日中にLINEで送ってくれました。
モジャさん、ありがとう^_^

I participated with my sixth-grade son and my 19-year-old daughter. On the day of the trip, we were told that due to the wind and waves, we might not be able to go to the cave, but thanks to our efforts in paddling, we were able to see the beautiful blue color of the cave. I was worried that the water temperature would be cold, but I didn't feel it at all. Our guide, Taichan, came up with various ideas and took wonderful photos for us—I'm so impressed!

小6の息子、19歳の娘と私の３人で参加しました。
当日は風と波があり洞窟へは行けるかどうかと言われましたが、頑張って漕いだ甲斐あって素晴らしい洞窟の青色を拝むことができました。
水温も寒いかと心配しましたが、全く感じませんでした。ガイドのたいちゃんが色々工夫してステキな写真を撮ってくれました〜！感激です！

The staff is friendly and easy to talk to, making sure beginners feel relaxed and can participate without anxiety. The sea was calm and perfect for diving, and we even encountered a sea turtle. I recommend doing three dives if you're confident in your physical fitness! Since we moved to different points, you can enjoy various views.

スタッフは気さくで話しやすく、初心者の方の不安とか感じないようにリラックスして参加できる形で楽しく話しかけてくれます。海は穏やかでダイビング日和でウミガメにも遭遇できました。体力に自信がある方は3ダイブすることをオススメします！ポイント移動するので違った景色を楽しめます。

I participated in snorkeling and canoeing at Barasu Island. The explanations were thorough, and although I was anxious being alone, I had a great time. I also learned a lot about Iriomote Island, enjoyed the nature, and it was a lot of fun. I'm glad I participated.

バラス島シュノーケリング、カヌーに参加しました。丁寧に説明して頂き、一人で不安だったのですが楽しかったです。
西表島のことも沢山教えて頂き、自然を満喫出来、楽しかったです。参加して良かったです。

I was feeling quite seasick upon arrival, but thanks to the wonderful teasing from our guide, I was able to enjoy a friendly atmosphere with everyone I met for the first time! The limestone cave was very exciting, and I had a relaxing time canoeing! I felt really refreshed in the midst of such rich nature. The photo of everyone jumping while holding hands is one of my favorites! Thank you very much!

到着時より船酔いでグデクデでしたが、ガイドさんの素晴らしいいじりによりはじめましての方とも和気あいあいと過ごせました(^^)！鍾乳洞はとてもexcitingで、カヌーではのんびり過ごせました！自然豊かな中でとてもリフレッシュしました♫最後みんなで手を繋いでジャンプした写真、とてもお気に入りです！ありがとうございました！

In the morning, I visited Balas Island and a limestone cave, and in the afternoon, I did mangrove stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). In the limestone cave, we advanced through the pitch-black cave with our lights on, sometimes getting knee-deep in water... it was an adventure that sparked my sense of exploration. I was also nervous about trying SUP for the first time, and I was able to have many experiences in just one day. The guide was very thorough in their explanations and took a lot of photos, which made me extremely satisfied.

午前中にバラス島＆鍾乳洞、午後にマングローブSUPしました。鍾乳洞はライトを付けて真っ暗な鍾乳洞を進んで、膝まで水に浸かったり…冒険心を擽られるツアーです。また、初めてのSUPにドキドキしたり、1日で沢山の経験が出来ました。ガイドさんも説明が丁寧で、写真も沢山撮ってくれて超大満足です。

I only made a reservation for snorkeling, but they were able to accommodate my request for diving as well! Thank you so much! Thank you, Ken!

シュノーケリングだけの予約でしたが、ダイビングの希望も対応して頂けました！
本当にありがとうございます！
ケンちゃんありがとう！

This time, we participated in two activities, kayaking and snorkeling, with a large group of 11 people. Thanks to our guide who worked hard to ensure we could experience each activity in the best conditions, we ultimately split the activities over two days. The snorkeling at the Blue Cave was incredibly beautiful, with lots of fish, and I think it's an experience you should have when visiting Okinawa! There were divers below, so I want to try diving next time, haha.

The sea where we kayaked was also very beautiful, and even though everyone was a beginner, all 11 of us had a great time! Our guide was really fun and made sure everyone enjoyed themselves! It was the best trip! Thank you!

今回、私たちは11人という大人数でカヤックとシュノーケリング二つのアクティビティに参加させていただきました。それぞれのアクティビティを最高の状況で体験できるようにガイドのお兄さんが試行錯誤してくださったおかげで最終的に2日間に分けてアクティビティをしました。青の洞窟でのシュノーケリングは信じられないほど海が綺麗でお魚もたくさんいて沖縄にきて体験すべきアクティビティだと思いました！下にダイバーさんもいたので次回はダイビングがしたいです笑
カヤックをした海もとても綺麗で全員初心者でしたが11人全員楽しむことができました！
ガイドのお兄さんは本当にノリが良くて全員楽しませていただきました！最高の旅行になりました！ありがとうございます！

It was my first time, but they explained everything properly before we started, and I was very satisfied with both the snorkeling and diving! Everyone was kind, and it was a fun time! Taking motion sickness medication was the right choice.

初めてでしたが入る前にきちんと説明してくれ、シュノーケルもダイビングもとても満足できました！
皆さん優しくて楽しい時間でした！
酔止め飲んで行ったのは正解でした。

The guide's explanations were interesting, and I was laughing the whole time! The drone photography in the beautiful sea captures incredibly powerful images! It's definitely Instagram-worthy (laughs). I don't think any other tours offer this much. I didn't expect to have this much fun for this price, so I want to repeat this when I come to Okinawa again! Thank you!

ガイドさんの解説？が面白くて終始笑ってました！
綺麗な海でのドローン撮影はすごく迫力のある写真が撮れます！インスタ映え間違いないです（笑）
他のツアーにはここまでやってくれるとこ無いと思います。
この値段でここまで楽しめるとは思ってなかったので、沖縄に来た時はまたリピートしたいです！
ありがとうございました！

I experienced snorkeling and marine sports, and both were incredibly fun!! The guides and staff were cheerful and friendly, making it a day full of wonderful memories!!!!

シュノーケリングとマリンスポーツの体験しましたが、どちらも最高に楽しかったです！！
ガイドさんやスタッフの方も明るく気さくでとても1日いい思い出を作ることが出来ました！！！！

The tour was fulfilling, including activities like landing on the island, visiting a limestone cave, and experiencing stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). Additionally, being able to have lunch at a recommended restaurant allowed me to enjoy Iriomote Island even more. Thank you for the wonderful photos as well. I would love to participate again if the opportunity arises.

ツアーの内容が、島に上陸したり、鍾乳洞に行ったり、SUPを体験したりと、充実していました。また、オススメの店で昼食を食べられたことで、西表島をより満喫することができました。素晴らしい写真もたくさんありがとうございます。また機会があれば参加したいと思います。

The tour content was great, and the instructor was very kind, making it the best sightseeing experience in Iriomote Island. It was also wonderful that they took photos during the tour and shared them right away. I would like to rely on them again when I come back here.

ツアー内容がよかったこと、また、インストラクターの方がとても親切で最高の西表島観光になりました。ツアー中の写真を撮影してもらえ、すぐに共有してもらえるのもとてもよかったです。またこちらに来た際にはお世話になりたいと思いました。

It was my first time participating, and I had a lot of fun all day! I enjoyed my first experience with SUP very much! I was able to take many photos, which added to my memories.

初めての参加でしたが1日とても楽しかったです！ SUP初体験でも十分楽しめましたー！写真もたくさん撮っていただけて思い出が増えました。

The day before, I received a call informing me that due to the tides, going to Barasu Island would be difficult, so I was grateful to be able to plan the afternoon in advance.

On the day itself, I was worried because rain was forecasted from the morning, but it didn't rain in the morning and we had a great time! To avoid congestion with the SUP, we changed our order and went to the cave first. It was much more exciting and adventurous than I had imagined for a cave tour, and I had a lot of fun! It was my first time doing SUP, but they taught me carefully, and I quickly started enjoying it! They took many photos during the tour, and I was happy to receive them on the same day!

In the afternoon, it poured heavily, so the tour was changed, which ended up being a relief.

前日に、潮の関係でバラス島は厳しいとお電話を頂いていたので、午後のプランを事前に練ることができ、有り難かったです。

当日は朝から雨予報で心配でしたが、午前中は雨も降らず楽しめました！
SUPが混雑しないように、とのことで順番変更して鍾乳洞から行きました。想像していた鍾乳洞ツアーよりも探検する気分でワクワクする内容で、とても楽しかったです！
SUPは初めでしたが丁寧に教えて頂いて、すぐ楽しくなりました！
ツアー途中の写真もたくさん撮って頂き、当日中にすぐもらえたのでよかったです！

午後は土砂降りだったのでツアー変更になって結局助かりました。

Seasir and veltra made my diving adventure the absolute perfect experience! Got to see some sea turtles and beautiful fish and coral up close and personal!! Such a perfect day, made amazing by the Seasir staff!

Had a great time out on the Seasir Lucky!
The crew were super friendly and accommodating.
Good snorkelling in beautiful waters.

Don't forget to take your seasickness medication. The boat ride out was a bit choppy and I was glad to have it.

Thanks for the good time, guys!

This time, I went snorkeling on a trip to Okinawa with my friends. We quickly bonded with our guide, Matsucchan, as it was just the four of us. Thanks to the guide explaining the fish before we dove in, we were able to enjoy watching the fish while snorkeling. Although the weather wasn't very good this time, we were able to see whales on the boat ride there and saw sea turtles while snorkeling. In terms of satisfaction, I would say it's 100%! If I have the chance again, I would like to challenge myself with diving next time!

今回は、友達との沖縄旅行でシュノーケリングをしました。シュノーケリングは、私たち4人だけでガイドの松っちゃんともすぐ打ち解けることができました。ガイドさんは、潜る前に魚の説明をしてくれたおかげでシュノーケリングで楽しく魚を見ることができました。今回は、天気があまり良くなかったですが、行きの船でクジラを見ることができ、シュノーケリングではウミガメを見ることができました。満足度で言うと100%です！
また機会があれば次は、ダイビングに挑戦したいです！

My wife and I visited Ishigaki Island for the first time. On the day of our visit, due to our circumstances, we made a last-minute request to adjust the itinerary to avoid getting too wet. Thanks to the wonderful resourcefulness of our guide, we were able to enjoy canoeing and a glass-bottom boat at Kabira Bay, and they specially changed our originally planned full-day tour to a half-day just for us. Despite being young, our guide was experienced and reliable, and he engaged in conversation with us, an elderly couple, making our half-day on Ishigaki Island extremely enjoyable.

家内と二人で初めて石垣島を訪ねました。当日はこちらの都合で，急遽，水にあまり濡れないような内容でお願いできないかとの無理な要望を出させていただきましたが，ガイドさんの素晴らしい機転で，川平湾にてカヌー・グラスボート等を楽しみ，元々の一日ツアーを我々のみ特別に半日に変更していただきました。ガイドさんはお若いのに経験豊富で頼りがいがあり，我々老夫婦とも会話を合わせてくださるなど素晴らしい好青年で，石垣島での半日を大変楽しく過ごさせていただきました。

During my 5-night, 6-day trip, the weather wasn't great, and I didn't get to see much of the beautiful sea. However, there was a brief moment of sunshine when we landed on Baras Island, and at the very end, I was able to see a stunning sea. Also, the photos taken by our guide were very stylish and of excellent quality. I think it's the best tour because you can experience so much in one day. At the cave, I fell quite dramatically because it was muddy from the heavy rain the day before (laughs). I recommend wearing clothes that you don't mind getting dirty when participating in the tour.

5泊6日の旅行中、お天気に恵まれず、あまり綺麗な海を見ることが出来ていませんでしたが、バラス島の上陸の時だけ少し晴れ間が見え、最後の最後でとても綺麗な海が見れました。また、ガイドのお兄さんが撮ってくださった写真はとてもセンスがよく画質がすごく綺麗でした。1日で色々体験できるので最高のツアーだと思います。鍾乳洞では前日が大雨だったことにより、ぬかるんでいた為、盛大にすっ転びました（笑）ツアーに参加される際は汚れても良い服装がいいと思います。

I went on a SUP tour in the mangroves of Iriomote Island, explored a limestone cave, and visited Barasu Island. The guide was very attentive and considerate, making for a fun and fulfilling day. The value for the price was excellent. Barasu Island was especially amazing!

西表島のマングローブでSUP、鍾乳洞探検、バラス島ツアーへ行きました。担当のガイドさんがとても丁寧で、細かな気遣いをしてくださる方で1日楽しく、充実した日が過ごせました。この値段でこの内容はとてもお得でした。特にバラス島最高でした！

I am taking the open water dive license at my home. The Kerama friendly dive experience was awesome. I know most the basic dive skills, but the instructor was always close by. I saw a lot of new marine animals. I strongly recommend to try it if you are now afraid to dive.
