All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

We were a bit flustered as we participated with my daughter who got injured just before departure, but everyone was very kind and it really helped us! The tour guide was friendly and laughed happily with my daughter, which made it a lot of fun for us too. The guidance was great, and I learned a lot of interesting things (＾v＾).

As for the tour content, it was an irresistible plan for someone like me who loves photography. Usually, I end up being the one taking photos, but this time we were able to capture some wonderful family pictures! Since it was a boat entry, we didn't have to walk up any stairs, and best of all, when we dove from the boat, there were so many fish! My daughter was so excited that she was shouting.

I'm really glad we participated. If we have the chance to go to Okinawa again, I would definitely love to join another tour! m(_ _)m

出発直前に怪我をした娘を連れての参加でバタバタしましたが、とても親切にして頂き助かりました！
ツアーガイドのお姉さんも気さくな方で、娘と一緒にケラケラと楽しそうに笑ってくれてこちらもとても楽しかったです。案内も良くて色々物知りになりました(＾v＾）
ツアーの内容ですが、写真好きの私にはたまらないプランでした。
普段だと写真係になってしまうことが多いのですが、今回はとても良い家族写真を残すことが出来ました！
ボートエントリーなので、階段を歩かなくても済みましたし、なんといってもボートからダイブしたらそこには沢山の魚！！娘が大興奮で叫んでいました。
本当に参加して良かったです。
沖縄に行くとこがあれば是非またよろしくお願いしますm(_ _)m

Kayaking is a fun activity for families.
Trekking involves rocky areas, so a physical fitness level equivalent to at least a fourth grader is necessary to climb independently. If below that level, assistance from parents will be needed.
Since you'll be swimming in the waterfall pool, please participate in swimwear.

カヤックは家族連れで楽しく遊べます。
トレッキングは岩場が有り、自力で登るのに小学４年生程度以上の体力が必要でしょう。それ以下の場合は親の助けが必要です。
滝つぼで泳ぎますので、水泳の衣服で参加してください。

On July 29, 2020, my daughter, who was supposed to come from Tokyo, had to cancel due to COVID-19 restrictions, so I traveled alone from the countryside. When I landed at Uehara Port on Iriomote Island, several guides were there to greet us, and I immediately recognized the one holding the "PIPI" sign. After taking a wagon to the estuary, we received a briefing and started the experience. The equipment included a lightweight life jacket and thick-soled marine shoes.

Paddling while admiring the mangroves and trekking to swim in the waterfall was a sensation that you can't experience on TV or YouTube.

Our guide, Chad (Komatsu), allowed us to discover the unique creatures and plants of Iriomote at every turn. Chad is a young man with a dark complexion, a striking face, and a refreshing vibe. I was impressed by his professionalism, ensuring we had fun without feeling pressured! I definitely want to participate again next time with my children. This time, there were three pairs with us, but even as a solo participant, I thoroughly enjoyed the great outdoors.

Also, it seems that being prepared to get wet will enhance the enjoyment of this tour. A sense of happiness awaits as you float while soaking in the negative ions at the final waterfall.

Due to space constraints, I omitted some details, but I also had a fantastic time snorkeling at Barasu Island. I even saw a sea turtle! Practicing snorkeling at the beach the day before was somewhat helpful.

2020年7月29日

東京から来る筈だった娘がコロナ自粛となり、地方からの1人旅。
西表島の上原港に上陸すると、ガイドさんが何人も出迎えていますが、「PIPI」の看板を持っていてすぐ分かります。ワゴンに乗って河口に着くと、講習を受けて体験スタート。装備は、軽量のライフジャケットと厚底のマリンシューズ。
マングローブを眺めながらパドルを漕いだり、トレッキングして滝つぼで泳ぐ体験は、TVやYouTubeでは味わえない快感です。

ガイドのチャドさん（小松さん）は、西表ならでは生き物や植物の発見を至る所で体験させてくれました。
チャドさんは、色黒・濃い顔・爽やか系の好青年。無理させず、安心して楽しませてくれるプロ意識に感心！これなら次回、子どもと参加したいと思えます。今回はペア3組と一緒でしたが、1人参加でも大自然の前では関係なく満喫できました。

それとこのツアー、濡れる覚悟で参加した方が楽しめそう。最後の滝つぼでマイナスイオン浴びながら浮かぶ幸せが待っているから。

文字数の都合で割愛しましたが、バラス島のシュノーケリングもすごく楽しめました。海ガメも見れたし。前日にビーチでシュノーケル練習したのが、少しは役立ちました。

I was moved to see a sea turtle for the first time! ✨ We moved to three different snorkeling points, and each had a different depth, so I never got bored. ^_^

ウミガメ始めて見れて感動しました✨
3箇所シュノーケリングポイントを移動
するのですが、全部深さなどが違って
飽きずに回れました^_^

It was my first challenge. At first, I was a bit anxious since I was older and it was my first time. The instructor helped me a lot, and I was able to complete it safely until the end. This was the most fulfilling experience I had during my trip to Okinawa. I'm really glad I participated and made great memories.

初めての挑戦でした。
最初は少し不安でした、年齢もそれなりに高いしお初でしたし〜
インストラクターの兄さんに色々助けられて、最後迄無事にやり通しました。
今回沖縄旅行イベントの中で一番達成感を感じる事できました。いい思い出出来て本当に参加して良かったです。

We participated as a group of three men, and we were very satisfied. It was great to be able to move our bodies moderately, and the guide was very knowledgeable, making it a lot of fun. Although we participated during the COVID period, they were very thorough with mask-wearing and alcohol disinfection, so we felt very safe taking part. I highly recommend it.

男3人での参加でしたが、非常に満足出来ました。適度に体を動かせる上に、ガイドの方も知識が豊富でとても楽しかったです。
コロナの時期での参加になりましたが、マスク着用やアルコール消毒の徹底などもしっかりしていてとても安心して参加できました。かなりおすすめです。

We participated in a half-day easy sightseeing tour with our family of four. There was one other person joining us, making a total of five participants. We parked the car about five minutes from the monsoon and started trekking, followed by enjoying the mangroves by canoe.

The trek to the waterfall included some challenging paths, but it was enjoyable for everyone, including the kids. We loved the homemade lunch prepared by our guide at the waterfall, as well as cooling off in the pool and jumping in.

On the way back, we enjoyed different scenery, and even though it was just half a day, we fully enjoyed Iriomote Island. Our guide, Eri, shared many interesting stories, and it seemed like our second grader had a great time as well. Thank you very much!

半日のお手軽観光のツアーに家族4人で参加。
私達家族以外にはもう1名の方が一緒に参加し、合計5名で出発。
モンスーンから5分程度の場所にクルマを停め、トレッキング開始し、その後カヌーでマングローブを満喫。
カヌーを途中で止めて滝を目指したトレッキングは途中ハードな道のりもありましたが、それも子供達も含めて楽しめました。
滝でのガイドさんお手製ランチ、滝壺でのクーリング、飛び込み全て楽しめました。
帰路も行きとは違った景色を楽しめ、半日でしたが西表島を満喫出来ました。
ガイドさんのエリさんの話も大変楽しく小2の次男もすごく楽しかったみたいです。
ありがとうございました。

The staff were all kind and amazing. I highly recommend it. I am filled with gratitude for the various activities I was able to experience, even on the same day! It seems that due to the impact of COVID, there are fewer customers, so everyone, let's participate and liven things up!

スタッフの方は皆さん親切で最高でした。
おすすめです。
当日にもかかわらず、色々なアクティビティを経験させていただき感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです！
コロナの影響でお客さんの数が少ないそうなので皆さん、参加して盛り上げて行きましょう。

I went to Mangrove SUP and the Lucky Falls, and I went snorkeling! The guide was very talkative and shared a lot of information about Iriomote Island, which made it really enjoyable. The waves were a bit high during snorkeling, but I got to see beautiful corals and sea turtles that can only be found here, creating wonderful memories.

マングローブSUPと幸運の滝へ行き、シュノーケリングをしました！
ガイドさんもお話上手で、西表島のいろんな情報も教えてもらってとても楽しかったです♪
シュノーケリングは波は少し高かったですが、ここでしか見れない綺麗な珊瑚やウミガメに会えて楽しい思い出ができました(o^^o)

It was more fun than I expected, and everyone was very kind.
I was able to spend precious time before my transfer.

I'm sad to leave Okinawa.

予想以上に楽しく、とても親切だった。
転勤する前に、大切な時間を過ごせました。

沖縄を離れるのは、寂しいです。

I had a very enjoyable time!
All the photos were sent as data, so I can look back and enjoy them even after it's over.
The course was suitable even for us, who aren't very confident in our physical stamina!
The mangroves provided an extraordinary view, and it was incredibly soothing.
The staff who assisted us were also very pleasant, making it a comfortable experience!
Thank you, Chad and Yuki!
I would love to do this again!

とても楽しく過ごさせて頂きました！
写真は全てデータで送って下さり、終わった後も見返して楽しむことができます。
体力に自信がない私達でも大丈夫なコースでした！
マングローブは非日常的な景色で、最高に癒やされました。
担当してくださったスタッフさんも感じが良くて、居心地が良かったです！
チャドさん&ゆうきさんありがとうございました♡
また是非お願いします♪

I was informed the day before that due to tide conditions, we wouldn't be able to see Baras Island floating on the sea, and that we couldn't explore the limestone caves, which made me feel disappointed. However, instead, we were able to stand in the water and snorkel around Baras Island, and we were lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle, which turned out to be a fortunate experience.

The person in charge shared various stories during the transfer, and their good nature really shone through. They also took many photos for us. The boat we traveled on was clean and comfortable as well.

I would like to participate again if the opportunity arises.

前日に潮位の関係で海の上に浮かぶバラス島を見れないこと、鍾乳洞探検ができないことの連絡があり、残念な気持ちで参加しましたが、代わりにバラス島では水の中で立ったり周辺でシュノーケルをさせていただき、運良くウミガメにも会えて、逆にラッキーでした。

担当の方が移動中色んなことを話してくださって人柄の良さが伝わりました(^^) 写真もたくさん撮っていただきました。移動のボートも綺麗で乗り心地も良かったです。

機会があればまた参加したいと思います。

We participated in the Kayahira Bay and Blue Cave tour as a couple. The day before, we received a call informing us that due to strong winds, we wouldn't be able to go to the much-anticipated Kayahira Bay, and instead, we went to the mangroves as an alternative plan. It was great that they explained and confirmed the meeting place in detail.

At first, I was a bit disappointed about the change to the alternative plan, but I really enjoyed kayaking, and the guide provided a lot of thorough explanations. The pace was just right—not too fast and not too slow—allowing us to enjoy the kayaking and the great outdoors of the mangroves.

We went snorkeling at the Blue Cave, and when I mentioned that I wasn't confident in my swimming ability, they kindly pulled a float for me, which was very helpful. Thanks to that, I felt less scared and was able to fully enjoy the beautiful underwater world.

During the transfer, they also shared recommendations for restaurants and famous spots, which made it really fun.

After the tour, we received a lot of photos, and I was happy because they were all great shots. My first time in Ishigaki Island turned out to be a wonderful memory! The guides were really nice and very entertaining!

夫婦2人で川平湾、青の洞窟ツアー参加しました。
前日に電話いただき、強風の影響で楽しみにしていた川平湾に行けなくなり、代替のプランでマングローブの方へ行きました。集合場所等も丁寧に説明・確認してもらえて良かったです。

最初は代替プランになったことに少しがっかりしていたのですが、カヤックは勿論楽しめましたし、ガイドさんも丁寧に沢山説明してくれました。早すぎず、ゆっくりすぎず、カヤックとマングローブの大自然を楽しむことができました。
青の洞窟ではシュノーケリングをしましたが、泳力に自信がないことをお伝えすると、快く浮輪？を引っ張ってくださって助かりました。おかげで怖くなくなり、綺麗な海の世界を存分に堪能することができました。
移動の最中もオススメのレストラン、有名スポットなどを教えてくださり本当に楽しかったです。

ツアー後に写真をもらったのですが、かなりの枚数を撮ってもらっていて、どれもいい写真だったので嬉しかったです。初めての石垣島、すごくいい思い出になりました！
ガイドさん本当にいい方達でしたし、とっても面白かったです！笑

This was my fifth time visiting Ishigaki Island, with a total stay of about 60 days. This time, I joined a tour with seven friends (four men and three women).

Until now, I preferred to travel on my own, avoiding package tours, but I really regret that decision. The professionals truly make a difference. I believe this tour is essential for anyone traveling to Ishigaki!

What I liked about pipi:
1. The personality of the guides was outstanding. The SUP guide was Kurita, and the snorkeling guide was Saito. Both were handsome, refreshing, and had great personalities, making the tour enjoyable and fun. They were also very knowledgeable, and it was great to listen to them.

2. They take photos for you. They are very accommodating and take pictures while also directing you to photogenic spots. If you request to take a group photo at a specific location, they respond flexibly.

3. They provide support beyond the tour. They shared recommendations for spots and shops after the tour, which showed their thoughtfulness.

What I liked about the SUP/snorkeling tour:
- Many participants were not good swimmers or had no experience with SUP, but everyone had a great time.
- Iriomote Island had beautiful coral, making it a magical experience. If you bring a GoPro for snorkeling, you'll enjoy it even more.

Thank you so much!

石垣島は5回目、総滞在60日くらい。
今回は、友達7名(男性4人/女性3人)でのツアー。

今まで、自分で切り開く旅が好きだったので、
パッケージツアーを避けてきたのですが、とても後悔しました。
本当に、やっぱりプロは違うなと。
石垣の旅にこのツアーは必須だと思います！

pipiのよかったところ
1. ガイドさんの人柄が最高でした。
　SUPはくりちゃん(クリタさん)。シュノーケリングはサイトウさん。
　2人ともイケメンで、爽やかで、人柄がよく、
　気持ちよく、楽しくツアーを楽しめました。
　知識も豊富で、話を聞くのがよかったです。

2. 写真を撮ってくれる
　かなり融通を効かせながら、写真を撮ってくれます。
　ただ撮ってくれるだけではなく、
　映えスポットを見つけてはディレクションしてくれますし、
　「集合写真をこのポイントで撮りたい」と要望すると、
　柔軟に答えてくれます。

3. ツアー以外のところもフォローしてくれる
　おすすめのスポットやお店など、
　ツアー後にシェアしてくれる心配りもありました

SUP/シュノーケリングツアーのよかったところ
・泳げない/SUP未経験の人が多かったのですが、
　みんな楽しめました。
・西表島は、サンゴがとても綺麗だったので、
　幻想的でした。
　シュノーケリングは、GoProを持って行く方が楽しめます。

本当にありがとうございましたー！

I participated on July 26th at 15:30.
It was my first time snorkeling, but thanks to the guide's clear and thorough explanations, I was able to enjoy snorkeling!
Additionally, the guide was very kind, making it a memorable sea turtle tour!
I was able to see sea turtles and swim with them, which was great✌️
By the way, I encountered two of them!

7/26 15:30〜参加をしました。
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、ガイドさんのわかりやすく丁寧な説明のおかげで楽しくシュノーケリングができました！
また、ガイドさんの対応が親切でとても思い出になるウミガメツアーでした！
ウミガメも見つけることができ、一緒に泳ぐことができたのでよかったです✌️
ちなみに2匹もお会いできました！

The mangrove exploration by canoe and trekking was very enjoyable and fulfilling. The great nature was beautiful, and it was an incredibly mystical experience! Although I couldn't go to Balas Island this time, I was very satisfied to meet many fish, including sea turtles and clownfish, while snorkeling instead. The guide was very kind and it was a lot of fun! Thank you very much. I would love to rely on your services again when I come back here.

カヌーでのマングローブ探検、トレッキングはとても楽しく堪能できました。大自然が美しく、信じられないくらい神秘的な体験でした！
今回はバラス島は行けませんでしたが、その代わりにシュノーケリングでウミガメやクマノミなど沢山のお魚にも会えて大満足でした。
ガイドのおにいさんが、みなさんとても親切で楽しかったです！ありがとうございました。
こちらにきた時はまたぜひお世話になりたいです。

The weather was perfect with clear skies all day! However, it seemed that it was a day when Barasu Island didn't make an appearance, so we couldn't land... (._.) It was disappointing, but I appreciated the advance notice we received the day before. There is definitely a difference in feeling between being informed on the day and the day before.

I was told by the tour guide on Ishigaki Island the day before, "Iriomote Island has a large protected area, so you can't really enter without a guide!" so it was a good decision to book this tour in advance☆

The day's itinerary included exploring a limestone cave followed by mangrove SUP. Honestly, the limestone cave was as expected (^^; My husband had been to Akiyoshido in Yamaguchi Prefecture, and I had been to Gama in Okinawa, so the impact of that experience was stronger. It might be good for those who are visiting a limestone cave for the first time.

Inside the limestone cave, I was surprised by how much water we had to wade through (it might vary by day, but on this day it was about waist-deep) (ﾟдﾟ)! Also, the water in the cave is not colorless and transparent, so those who are particular about cleanliness might feel uneasy. I recommend wearing a rash guard instead of a T-shirt since you might get a bit dirty.

It was my first time doing mangrove SUP, but after the briefing, I was able to stand up and paddle right away, and it was incredibly fun! We passed through some relatively rugged areas, so I ended up kneeling or sitting partway through. It was easier than standing the whole time＾＾ I was super excited when a ray swam by right after we started ☺☆彡

Our guide, Kurizawa, answered questions about the plants and insects we encountered during the tour, as well as about Iriomote Island. He took many photos with a waterproof camera and sent them to us via LINE the same day, and I was happy to see how beautifully they turned out☆ Thank you for the recommended gourmet information about Ishigaki Island!

As others have mentioned, if you're doing a day trip, you might have to wait quite a while after the tour depending on the boat schedule. We also waited about an hour and a half while having lunch. Additionally, since this tour includes transportation to Uehara Port, it might be a bit difficult for those who want to visit Yufu Island as a day trip due to time and location constraints. It seems it takes about an hour by car from Uehara Port to Ohara Port, which is convenient for sightseeing in Yufu Island.

I deducted one star since we couldn't go to Barasu Island, but overall it was a satisfying tour. It seems that the tour fee for not being able to go to Barasu Island will be refunded later◎

Thank you very much (^^)/~~~

天気に恵まれて1日中快晴！でしたが、タイミング悪くバラス島が現れない日だったようで上陸できず...(._.)残念でしたが、前日に予めご連絡をいただけたのはありがたかったです。やはり当日伝えられるのと前日伝えられるのとでは気持ち的にも違いますね。

「西表島は保護されている区域が広いからガイドがいないとなかなか入れないよ～！」と前日石垣島のツアーガイドの方に伺い、今回申し込んでおいて正解でした☆

当日の流れは、鍾乳洞探検→マングローブSUP。正直、鍾乳洞は期待通りだったかなぁ(^^;夫は山口県の秋芳洞、私は沖縄本島のガマ（西表島の鍾乳洞と沖縄本島のガマを比べてはいけませんが…。）へ入ったことがあったので、そのときの衝撃の方が強かったようです。鍾乳洞自体初めてという方には良いのでは。

鍾乳洞内では想像以上に水に浸かりびっくり（日によって違うのかもしれませんがこの日は腰くらい）(ﾟдﾟ)！また、鍾乳洞の水は無色透明ではないので潔癖な人は抵抗があるかもしれません。多少汚れるのでTシャツよりラッシュガード着用をおすすめします。

マングローブSUPは初めてでしたが、レクチャー後すぐに立って漕ぐことができてめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです！わりと険しいところを通るので途中からは膝立ちor着座の姿勢。ずっと立っているより楽でした＾＾スタート直後にエイがスイーっと泳いでいったのには大興奮☺☆彡

ガイドの栗澤さんはツアー中に遭遇する植物や昆虫についてはもちろん、西表島のこと、参加者の質問に丁寧に答えてくださいました。防水カメラでたくさん撮影してくれ、その日のうちにLINEでいただきましたがキレイに撮れていて嬉しかったです☆石垣島のおすすめグルメ情報もありがとうございました！

他の方が書かれていた通り、日帰りの場合は船の時間によっては終了後かなり待ちます。私たちもお昼ご飯を食べつつ1時間半くらい待ちました。また、こちらのツアーは上原港までの送迎のため、ツアーついでに日帰りで由布島へ行きたい方は時間と場所的に少し難しいかもしれません。※上原港から由布島観光に便利な大原港までは車で1時間程かかるようです。

バラス島へ行けなかったので★をひとつ減らしましたが、全体的には満足のいくツアーでした。※バラス島へ行けなかった分のツアー代は後日返金いただけるようです◎

ありがとうございました(^^)/~~~

Since the Phantom Island gets crowded in the morning, we went snorkeling first. We were able to snorkel for about 40 minutes in an area with many blue coral reefs, and I was very satisfied. The blue corals were beautiful! Although the water was a bit murky due to the wind, there were plenty of fish, and the kids were happy. My older child wanted to return to the boat early, so I was able to leave them there while I enjoyed snorkeling alone. Thank you very much!

As for the Phantom Island itself, it was just okay; it is beautiful, but I felt that snorkeling was better. Since the island has a lot of coral, I wish I had brought marine shoes.

幻の島が朝は混んでるということで、先にシュノーケルをしました。
青のサンゴ礁がたくさんあるところでシュノーケルを40分ほどでき、とても満足できました。青のサンゴは、とても綺麗でした！風があり少し濁ってはいましたが魚もたくさんで子供たちも喜んでいました。年長の子供が早めに船に戻りたいというので預けて船でみてもらえたので、母親の私は1人でゆっくりシュノーケルできました。ありがとうございました(^^)
肝心の幻の島は、ふーんという感じで、綺麗ではありますが、シュノーケルのが良かったなという印象です。島は、サンゴが多いのでマリンシューズを持参すれば良かったなと思います。

It's something that can't be helped since it's a natural occurrence. The tide was high, so Barasu Island wasn't accessible, and we switched to a different half-day course. That said, exploring the limestone caves and stand-up paddleboarding in the mangrove forest was enjoyable.

自然のことなのでどうにもなりません。潮位が高くバラス島が出てこなかったので、別の半日コースに変わりました。と言いつつも、鍾乳洞探索やマングローブ林のSUPは楽しかったです。

I went diving with a friend who hadn't dived in 13 years. Although the visibility was quite low due to the weather, the sunlight made it bright, and we were able to see various clownfish, including the Hama clownfish, common clownfish, anemone clownfish, and the saddleback clownfish.

We were also lucky to spot a green sea turtle resting nearby. It was quite accustomed to people and didn't swim away even when we got close, allowing us to take photos at our leisure.

Perhaps because of the feeding, the six-lined wrasse came close enough that we could see its scales clearly, which was a fun experience that you can't have on remote islands. It was a great spot for both beginner and experienced divers to enjoy!

13年ぶりのダイビングという友人と潜りましたが、天候の関係でかなり透明度は低かったものの、日差しで明るく、ハマクマノミ、クマノミ、カクレクマノミ、セジロクマノミ、ハナビラクマノミを見ることができました。
また運良くアオウミガメが休んでいて、かなり人に慣れていて近くにいても逃げなかったので！ゆっくり写真が撮れました。
餌やりがあるからかロクセンスズメダイがウロコがはっきり見えるくらいの距離でよってきてくれて、離島では体験できない距離で観察できたのも楽しかったです。久々の体験ダイビングでもファンダイビングでも楽しめるスポットでしたよ！

It had been a while since I dived at this spot, and the weather turned bad and dark before we even got in the water, but the Blue Cave itself was very beautiful. The guide was also very attentive and taught us well, so I had a great time.

My friend, who I hadn't seen in a long time, seemed to forget all her worries before diving and really enjoyed herself underwater. It looked like she had a lot of fun interacting with the guide while we were diving.

Since the beach dive was closed, choosing a shop for boat entry was definitely the right decision. Even with bad weather, it seems that boat entry can still be enjoyable, so I recommend it if you don’t get seasick!

Afterward, they also carefully helped us log our dives. I'm truly grateful for that.

久々に潜ったスポットで、潜る前から天候が悪くなって暗くなりましたが、青の洞窟自体はとても綺麗で、ガイドさんも丁寧に教えてくれたのでとても楽しかったです。
すごい久々の友人も、潜る前の不安は何処へやらで、水中ではかなり楽しめたようで、ガイドさんとの潜ってる間のやり取りも楽しかった様子でした。
ビーチダイブが封鎖されてたので、ボートエントリーのショップ選んで正解でした。
天候が悪くてもボートエントリーならもがれることがあるようなので、船に酔わないならおすすめです！
終わった後も丁寧にログもつけてくれました。
本当に感謝です

We had a great time experiencing stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) while almost falling into the mangroves with four people (^^). Chad's friendly guidance made it very enjoyable! The snorkeling was the best I've ever seen, with beautiful fish. The coral was also stunning, and I was so happy to see the clownfish! We were able to do so many activities in just one day!

SUPでマングローブの中を落ち掛けながら4人で楽しく体験できました(^^)
チャドさんのガイドがフレンドリーでとても楽しく過ごせました！
シュノーケルは今までで1番きれいに魚が見えました
珊瑚も綺麗でカクレクマノミも見れたので嬉しかったです♡
盛り沢山の体験が1日でできました！

Thanks to scheduling a bit earlier, we were able to avoid the crowds! The canoeing was intense on the sun exposure... The mountain climbing afterward required some stamina, but it wasn't overwhelmingly tiring! The waterfall was amazing, and they even took pictures of us jumping in♪ The handmade rice balls we received afterward were delicious!!!! I devoured them!!

Since we had some time before the afternoon snorkeling, we were able to go to a nearby shop to buy ice cream♪ Balas Island is incredibly small, but it's so beautiful! The snorkeling took us to a spot with stunning coral!! There were plenty of fish, and we even saw a sea turtle♪ They took lots of underwater photos too! Since the boat didn't have a roof, sun protection is a must^^;

少し時間を早めてスケジューリングしてくれたおかげで、混雑を避けれました！
カヌーは日焼け強烈です、、、その後の山登りはそれなりに体力いりましたが、めちゃくちゃ疲れるってほどでもないです！
滝は最高だし、飛び込む写真も撮ってくれます♪
その後頂いた手作りのおにぎりが美味しい！！！！ペロリと食べました！！

午後のシュノーケルまで時間があったので、近くの商店でアイスとか買いに行けました♪
バラス島はめちゃくちゃ小さいけど、キレイすぎます！
シュノーケルは最高にサンゴがキレイなところに行けました！！
魚もたくさんいるし、ウミガメも見れました♪
水中写真もたくさん撮ってくれます！
船に屋根がなかったので、日焼け対策は必須です^^;

We had our first SUP experience with three women. The guide taught us carefully. It looked difficult, but it was really easy, and everyone quickly got the hang of it, enjoying the mangroves to the fullest!

During snorkeling, we even got to see a sea turtle! However, for those who are prone to motion sickness, I recommend taking anti-nausea medication in advance.

Thank you to the guides! 😊

女性3人で初SUP体験。
ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくれました。
難しそうに見えたけど、とっても簡単で、みんなすぐに乗りこなし、マングローブを大満喫できました！

シュノーケルでは、ウミガメにも会えました〜！
但し、酔いやすい方は、酔い止め薬を事前に飲むことをおすすめします。

ガイドの方々、ありがとうございました(^ ^)

The sea was very beautiful, and they checked the spots before the customers entered, moving to different points, so it was lovely. However, I felt that the guide's quality varied from person to person. The photos taken also had a big difference depending on who took them.

Additionally, we followed the guide, but the range was a bit limited, and I wanted to move around a little more freely. It was great to see sharks and turtles!

とても海が綺麗でポイントごとにお客さんが入る前にチェックをしてくれてポイント移動していたので、綺麗でした。
ただ、ガイドさんが、人により当たり外れがあると感じた。
撮ってもらった写真も、とる人により差が大きくあると感じた。

あと、ガイドに従って動いていくのたが、その範囲も少し少なく、もぅ少し自由に動きたかった。
サメと亀が見れたのは良かった！

The guide took many photos on the mysterious island. The sea was beautiful, and I saw blue coral reefs for the first time. I'm not very good at swimming, but with the guide's assistance, I was able to enjoy snorkeling.

ガイドさんが幻の島で沢山写真を撮って頂きました。海は綺麗で青いサンゴ礁を初めてみました。
泳ぎが得意でないのですがガイドさんに誘導して頂き楽しくシュノーケルができました。

Originally, it was a tour to land on Baras Island, but I was informed the day before that it couldn't happen due to the tides. It was disappointing, but the tour company's response was good. I changed to a canoeing and canyoning tour, and I was able to fully enjoy nature, with our guide Chad really making it fun. I recommend it for creating enjoyable memories.

もともとバラス島上陸のツアーでしたが、潮の関係でできないと前日に連絡。
残念でしたが、ツアー会社の対応はよかったです。
カヌーとキャニオニングのツアーに変更しましたが、自然を満喫でき、ガイドのチャドさんも盛り上げてくれました。
楽しい思い出作りにはおすすめです。

I participated in a cave and canoe tour! We visited three caves, but the last one was particularly exciting as we had to navigate through a very narrow passage that was almost horizontal! The canoeing was the most fun part of this trip; while paddling in sync with my companions amidst breathtaking scenery, we also ended up crashing into the mangroves, making it a thrilling adventure! I highly recommend it if you come to Iriomote Island!

鍾乳洞とカヌーに参加しました！
鍾乳洞は3箇所回りましたが、特に最後の鍾乳洞はほぼ横ばいになるくらい狭いところを通ってエクサイティングでした！
カヌーは今回の旅行で一番楽しくて、絶景の中同伴者と息を合わせながら漕ぎつつも、マングローブに突っ込んでしまったりと、ハラハラドキドキのツアーでした！！
西表島に来たらオススメです！！

The sunset was beautiful and absolutely amazing! The brother was very kind, taking photos at a lovely spot and even recommending delicious restaurants, which made for a fun experience.

When I go to Okinawa again, I would definitely like him to guide me!

とにかく夕日が綺麗で最高でした！
素敵な写真スポットで写真を撮っていただいたり、おいしいご飯屋さんまで教えてくれたりと、お兄さんもとても優しく、楽しく過ごせした(^^)

また沖縄行った時はぜひお兄さんに案内していただきたいです！

It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Okinawa. From start to finish, the explanations were very thorough. Everything was taken care of, and I would like to ask guide Osaka for all activities when I come to Okinawa in the future. The photography techniques were also amazing and full of surprises. I was able to create touching memories. The Blue Cave and the fish were both fantastic. Thank you very much! The countryside soba you recommended was delicious too! I will be coming to Okinawa again next year for my friend's wedding, which was postponed, so I look forward to your assistance again.

素晴らしい沖縄旅行の思い出になりました。最初から最後までご丁寧に説明してくださりました。いたせりつくせりで、これから先沖縄に来たときのアクティビティは全てガイドの大阪さんにお願いしたいです。写真を撮るテクニックも素晴らしく驚きの連続でした。感動的な思い出をつくれました。
青の洞窟も、お魚も素晴らしかった。
本当にありがとうございました！ご紹介頂いた田舎そばも美味しかったです！
また来年、今回延期になった友達の結婚式で沖縄に来ますので、またよろしくお願いします。
