I was torn between sea walking and the glass boat, but I chose the glass boat because I heard I could see Okinawan fish from underwater rather than from above.
When we arrived at the terminal, we were on the same boat as two other groups, but we were given priority and allowed to enter the underwater room first, where we could enjoy the beautiful Okinawan sea without needing to change clothes!
The more I looked, the more I was moved, but I did get a little seasick, so I recommend those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before participating.
After 15 minutes of enjoying the sea breeze and the view of Naha City from the sea, we finally entered the underwater room. The underwater scenery was truly beautiful, and we were able to see many colorful fish. They were also fed, so a lot of fish gathered around us. We could see colorful coral reefs as well, and there were explanations about the fish and the coral reefs, allowing us to learn while having fun.
It's enjoyable for all ages, so I would like to take my parents as well. Additionally, the experience lasts about an hour, making it easy to participate and allowing for other activities as well. We also received a magnet as a souvenir, which was a lot of fun.
海底ウォーキングかグラスボートか迷いましたが、上からではなく海の中から沖縄の魚たちを見れると聞いてグラスボートに2名で利用しました。
ターミナルにつくと、2つの団体と同じ船でしたが、優先で先に通していただき、海中部屋にも先に見えやすいとこに通していただき着替えが必要ないまま、沖縄の綺麗な海を楽しませていただきました!
感動してみればみるほど、少し船酔いしてしまったので酔いやすいかたは酔い止めを飲んで参加がオススメです。
海風と海からの那覇市内の景色を楽しみながら走ること15分。いよいよ海中部屋へ入ります。
海の中は本当に綺麗で、いろいろなカラフルなお魚をたくさん見ることができました。
餌付け?もされていて、お魚がとてもたくさん集まってくれました。カラフルな珊瑚礁も見れて
魚の説明や珊瑚礁の説明などもあり勉強しながら楽しむことができました。
年齢問わず楽しめるので、両親なども連れていきたいと思います。
また、時間が約一時間と手軽に参加できるのも、他の体験もいろいろできるメリットと思います。
お土産にマグネットもいただきとても楽しめました。

I made a reservation so my mother, who can't swim, could see the underwater world. Unfortunately, the conditions weren't very good due to the weather, but it seems my mother was satisfied. She was very excited when fish gathered nearby! The visibility was 2 this time, but I want to try again next time!

Dear Kachin,

Although the conditions on the day were not the best, we are very pleased to hear that your mother was able to experience the beauty of the Okinawan sea, even just a little.

This time, I boarded a boat to show my 2-year-old son the beautiful fish living in the waters of Okinawa. From other people's experiences, I learned that the water clarity is better when the day before was sunny, so we hurriedly boarded on the day we arrived in Okinawa. Unfortunately, perhaps due to the strong winds, the water clarity wasn't as great as I had hoped, but the crew of the Orca boat kindly fed the fish near the boat, allowing us to closely observe the tropical fish.
Although some rocking was expected, it wasn't enough to cause seasickness, and we enjoyed a pleasant cruise with a nice breeze, which made my 2-year-old son very happy. He was excitedly holding onto the Orca boat magnet we received, even after disembarking (laughs).
It's quite challenging to encounter the perfect day for a tour that is affected by the weather, but I believe it was a valuable experience that both adults and children can enjoy. Next time, I definitely want to take a plan that includes lunch on a nice weather day to fully enjoy Okinawa.
今回は、2歳の息子に綺麗な沖縄の海底に住むお魚を見せたく乗船しました。
他の方の体験談から、前日が快晴であった方が、海水の透明度がよいとの事だったので、バタバタしましたが、沖縄到着日に慌てて乗船。
残念ながら、風が強かった為か、海の透明度は凄くいいとは言えませんでしたが、オルカ号の船員さんが船の傍に撒餌をして下さり、南国のお魚達を間近でじっくり鑑賞する事が出来ました。
揺れも予想されていましたが、船酔いするほどではなく、心地よい風を感じるクルーズで、2歳の息子も大喜び。戴いたオルカ号のマグネットを握りしめながら、下船後も興奮してはしゃいでました(笑)
こういった、お天気に左右されるツアーで、最高に良い日に巡り合うのは、なかなか難しいですが、貴重な体験が出来、大人も子供も楽しめるプランだと思います。
今度は是非、お天気の良い日に、ランチ券付きのプランでゆったりと沖縄を満喫したいと思います。
Thank you for boarding the Orca.
We are delighted to hear that your 2-year-old son was satisfied, and it brings a smile to our faces to imagine how much fun he had. The clarity of the sea can vary depending on the weather and tide, so we appreciate your understanding.
We all look forward to the day you can board again.

Encountered a mother and baby whale. The captain can tell how fast they dive underwater! The boat runs parallel to the whale, and when it dives and comes up again, it often appears very close to the boat. Of course, being a professional, that's to be expected, but I was thrilled to spend quite a long time with the mother and baby whale, sometimes as close as 20 to 30 meters from the boat.
The catamaran was sturdy against the waves, but it rocked quite a bit until we got closer to the Kerama Islands. According to my partner, nearly half of the passengers were using bags for motion sickness. The only ones left on the upper deck, cheering, were middle-aged men. I, who felt no motion sickness at all, had an emotional whale watching experience.
親子のクジラに遭遇。
水中に潜っているスピードが船長さんはわかるんですねぇ!
クジラと並行して船を走らせるのですが、クジラが潜って次に出てくる時に、殆ど船の近くに出現するんです。
勿論プロだから、と言ってしまえばそうなんでしょうが、ずいぶんと長い時間を親子のクジラと一緒に、しかも近い時には船から20~30mの近さで見られて感激しました。
揺れに強いカタマラン船でしたが慶良間諸島に近づくまでに結構揺れて、私の相方に言わせればほぼ半数近くの方々が袋を口にされていたそうです。
揺れの大きな屋上デッキに残って歓声を上げていたのは、すべて中高年の男性ばかり。
全く酔いのなかった私は、感動のホエールウォッチングでした。

I participated at the end of the year, but unfortunately, I didn't see any whales. After returning, I asked a diver acquaintance, and they told me that whales are rarely seen in December. It seems that most whale watching tours organized by diving shops start around the second week of January. I thought it might be a bit early, so I wasn't too hopeful, and it can't be helped!
We ventured out to about the area shown in the photo. It was quite far, so I'll just consider it as part of the cruise cost.
The boat rocked quite a bit, probably due to the winter weather. Since the journey was long, there were many people sleeping... There wasn't really a sense of "We might see whales! We need to keep an eye out!" throughout the boat. I got the impression that there were many participants from China.
年末に参加しましたが、クジラは見られませんでした。。
帰ってきてから知り合いのダイバーに聞いたところ、12月はほとんど見られないそうで、ダイビングショップなどが開催しているホエールウォッチングツアーは1月2週目くらいからのスタートが多いのだそうです。
ちょっと時期が早いかなとダメ元だったので、しょうがないです!
だいたい写真のあたりまで遠征していました。そこそこ遠いので、クルーズ代だと思うことにします。
船は冬のせいかけっこう揺れました。
移動が長いので、寝ている人が多かったかも…「クジラが見られるかも!よく見てないと!」という感じは、船内全体としてなかったかなぁ。。
参加者は中国の方が多かった印象でした。

I was able to see wild whales for the first time. There weren't any flashy movements like jumping, but at one point, a baby whale came very close and swam right under the boat, which was an incredible sight. The appearance of the whale was fleeting, and I couldn't take any still photos, but I kept the video rolling, and it turned out clear, so that was great.
初めて野生のクジラを見ることが出来ました。ジャンプなどの派手な動きはありませんでしたが、一度子クジラが最接近して、船の底をくぐっていったところは目前に見えて感激しました。クジラが現れるのは一瞬で、スチール写真は全く撮れませんでしたが、動画を回しっぱなしにしたら、はっきり写っていたので良かったです。

Unfortunately, I was unable to see any whales, and since it was the end of the year, there was no refund available.
Well, that was within my expectations, so it’s fine, but when I tried to use the re-boarding ticket I received to try again in March, I was told, "You only have one re-boarding ticket, so please pay the rest in cash."
If that’s the case, I wish they had told me to get enough re-boarding tickets for everyone at the end of the last trip.
残念ながらクジラは見ることはかなわず、また年末であったため返金もありませんでした。
まあそれは想定内だったので構わないのですが、再乗船券を頂いたので、3月にチャレンジしようとしたところ、"再乗船券が1枚しかないので残りは現金で支払ってください"と言われました。
それであれば、前回の終了時に人数分再乗船券を取るように言って欲しかったです。

I have been whale watching both domestically and internationally, but this time felt like a miss. Whales are part of nature, so it's understandable. The mother and calf were nice to see. The boat's equipment was average. The crew was young, and I thought their explanations for the international guests were good, but I felt something was lacking. I would have liked more information about the whales, such as being able to hear their calls before we spotted them. For the next time, maybe I'll try a different boat?
今まで、国内外含め、ホエールウォッチングしてますが、今回はハズレって感じ。
クジラは、自然のものなので仕方ない。親子連れは良かった。船の装備は普通。

They will inform you of the visibility and the level of boat sway on a scale of 1 to 5 just before boarding. On the day I boarded, I was disappointed to hear that the visibility was rated as "second from the bottom," but once we reached the viewing point, I was able to see a decent amount of fish and coral, so it turned out well. Since you're dealing with nature, luck on the day is important. It's a short cruise of about an hour, so I recommend checking the weather and wave forecasts before participating.
当日の透明度と船の揺れ具合を5段階評価で乗船の直前に教えてくれます。

Dear Japanese resident in Shanghai,
Thank you very much for boarding our underwater viewing boat, Orca.
Especially during this time of year, strong north winds often prevent us from reaching the outer sea points, and to be honest, the inner sea points can be unpredictable until you actually visit them. As you mentioned, since we are dealing with nature, luck is also an important factor!
If you can visit during the summer when the ocean conditions are calmer, please do give it a try. I believe you will experience a different sea than what you encountered this time.

Before boarding, the staff provided a detailed explanation about the ship's movement and the sea's transparency for the day. We were informed that the sea's transparency level was below standard and murky on the day we were to board. The transparency can change depending on wave conditions and weather, so it seems to depend on luck that day. The ship anchored a little offshore, and the sea bottom watching began. While we could see fish swimming, the low transparency made it difficult to take clear photos, which was quite disappointing as we returned to the port.
At the buffet at Nest Hotel Naha, our seats were already prepared when we arrived at the restaurant, so we could enter without waiting. There was a wide variety of dishes, and the taste was excellent; everything was very delicious. The freshly fried tempura was the most popular item.
乗船前に係員から当日の船の揺れ具合や海の透明度について詳しい説明があります。
私たちが乗船する日の海の透明度はレベルで標準よりも下で濁っているとの案内でした。透明度は波の状態や天候により変わるのでその日の運次第かと思います。船は少し沖へ出た所で停泊、海底ウォッチングの始まりとなりましたが、魚たちが泳いでいるのは見えましたが透明度が浅くて写真を撮っても綺麗には写りませんでした。とても残念な思いで港に戻りました。

The annual staff trip was held this year in Okinawa. Although the weather was unfortunate, it was much warmer every day compared to our hometown, Asahikawa. On the last night in Okinawa, we enjoyed a sunset dinner cruise with wonderful music and delicious food. At the end, there was a surprise Happy Birthday song! (One of the staff members had a birthday.) It turned out to be a lovely birthday gift thanks to the thoughtful arrangement.
毎年恒例の職員旅行。今年は沖縄でした。
あいにくの天候でしたが、地元の旭川と比べるととても暖かい毎日でした。
沖縄最後の夜は、サンセットディナークルーズ。素敵な音楽に美味しい食事。
最後にはサプライズのHappy Birthday Song!!(職員が誕生日でした)
粋なはからいで素敵な誕生日プレゼントになりました。

The sunset wasn't very clear due to the weather, so I couldn't see it well. Although it's called a cruise, it felt more like just moving around the harbor, and I wouldn't really call it a cruise. Because of that, I couldn't see much of the night view, and the scenery was repetitive, so it wasn't great. It felt more like the live performance was the main attraction.
サンセットは天気がいまいちだったのでハッキリ見えなかったけど、クルーズと言う割には港内を移動しているだけでクルーズとまで行かないと思う。その分夜景もあまり見えないし、同じ景色ばかりで眺めは良く無かったです。
なので、ライブがメインだったような感じです。

It wasn't raining, but there were many clouds, so I couldn't see the sunset scene I was hoping for.
The weather can't be helped.
The wind was a bit strong. I thought it would be bothersome during the BBQ, but after finishing the meal and gazing at the view from the boat, that wind turned into something pleasant.
As others have mentioned, the boat feels a bit old. However, the care shown by the staff really touched my heart.
It was a great start to my trip to Okinawa.
I gave it four stars because I couldn't see the sunset beautifully. I'm sorry to the tour company.
雨ではありませんでしたが、雲が多くて期待していたサンセットの
シーンは見れませんでした
天候は仕方ない
少し風も強かったです BBQの時は風がやだなぁーって思ってましたが、食事を終えて船からの景色を眺めていると、その風は心地よいものに変わってました
他の人の書き込みにもありますが、船は少し年老いた感じです
でもスタッフの方たちの気遣いは心に響きましたよ
沖縄旅行の良い出だしでした
サンセットが綺麗に見れなかったので★4つにしてしまいました
催行会社さん、ごめんなさい

We participated as a group of three to celebrate a friend's birthday! We ordered the Bougainvillea course, and the food was delicious. We also enjoyed a lovely live performance at a perfect volume. Since it was a weekday in October, the place wasn't crowded, allowing us to relax and enjoy our meal and conversation. As part of the birthday celebration, there was a photo stand and pictures taken on the spot, along with birthday wishes from the staff, which seemed to make the birthday person very happy. The staff were particularly friendly, and we are very grateful. Thank you!
友達の誕生日記念に3人で参加させていただきました!
ブーゲンビリアコース をお願いしましたが、食事もおいしくいただけ、素敵な生ライブも適度に演奏を聞くことができ楽しめました。
平日で10月ということもあり、混み合っていなくゆったりと食事と会話を楽しむことが出来ました。
誕生日アニバーサリーとしてフォトスタンド&その場の写真、スタッフからの誕生日お祝いなど、本人もとても喜んでくれているようでした。
特にスタッフの方は感じがよく感謝感謝です。
有難うございました!

I was surprised by the intensity of the swaying.
It seems there was a child who got so close that the captain said, "This one is friendly, it's too close!" However, I couldn't clearly see its figure from the boat, but I was able to see its tail above the water and the spray. It was moving.
Motion sickness medication is a must!
揺れの激しさには驚きました。
キャプテンが『コイツ人懐こい、近すぎてヤバイ』と言ったほど、近くまで寄ってきてくれた子がいたようですが、船の上からハッキリとその姿を見ることはできませんでしたが、
水面から出たしっぽや、潮をみることができました。
感動します。
酔い止め必須!
Dear U family,
Thank you very much for participating in our "Whale Watching Tour." Many of our guests, both children and adults, express their joy and excitement at seeing the powerful whales up close.
Additionally, compared to summer, the winter sea can sometimes have higher waves, so we recommend taking motion sickness medication as you mentioned. Nevertheless, whale watching continues to attract many repeat customers seeking that thrill, and we sincerely look forward to your next visit.
Sincerely,
The staff at Cerulean Blue

この度は、弊社の「ホエールウォッチングツアー」にご参加いただきまして、誠にありがとうございます。
近くで見る大迫力のホエールには、子どもだけではなく大人も声をあげて喜び、感動されるお客様が多くいらっしゃいます。
また、夏場と比べると冬の海は少し波も高い日もございますので、お客様のおっしゃる通り酔い止めをお勧め致します。
それでも、感動を求めてリピーターのお客様も多くいらっしゃるホエールウォッチング、U family様のまたのご参加心よりお待ちしております。

I enjoy dinner cruises both domestically and internationally. This one had a quiet atmosphere, and since I participated with family, it was easy to talk. Personally, I like singing and dancing, and I wanted to dance the Eisa. As for being romantic, it's a bit ambiguous.
The meal was the Hibiscus Course. The soup, salad, and drinks were buffet-style, so the quantity was sufficient. However, the beef was a bit dry and had a noticeable smell, which was disappointing, but that's to be expected in Okinawa. The staff's service was very good, and their smiles were lovely! The live performer was very skilled at singing.
ディナークルーズが好きで国内、海外で行きます。こちらは静かな感じでした、親族で参加したので話がしやすかったです。個人的には歌って踊ってが好きです、エイサーとか踊りたかった。ロマンティックかと言うと微妙です。
食事はハイビスカスコース。スープ、サラダ、飲み物がビュッフェなので量は十分でした、ただ牛肉は少しパサついていて匂いがあるのが残念、沖縄なので仕方ない。スタッフの対応はとてもよく笑顔も素敵でした!生演奏の方の歌がお上手でした。

I have traveled to Okinawa many times, but this was my first experience with a sunset cruise. I found it online and was determined to try it, so I finally achieved my wish. The shuttle service was reassuring. I chose the most affordable meal course, and I was completely full. Not only did we see the sunset, but we also saw the moon. When I informed them in advance about my birthday during the shamisen live performance, they surprised me with a birthday song, a drink with fireworks, and a photo gift. Thank you very much! I highly recommend this for anyone celebrating a birthday. Thank you for a wonderful time. I returned home safely today. P.S. After the typhoon, the moon was sometimes visible and sometimes not, but it was the day after the supermoon.
沖縄旅行は何度も経験していましたが、サンセットクルーズは初体験で、ネットで見つけて是非乗ってみたいと思い念願達成しました。送迎もついてて安心。食事は一番お値打ちなコースを選びましたがお腹も満腹で夕日だけでなくお月様も見え、船内での三味線ライブのときにバースデイのことを事前に伝えたらお祝いソングと花火のついたドリンクと写真をプレゼントいただきありがとうございました。 バースディのかたには是非オススメしたいです。楽しいひと時をありがとうございました。今日無事に我が家に帰宅しました。追伸、、、台風の後で月が見えたり見えなかったりでしたが、スーパームーンの翌日です。

It wasn't the sunset in Okinawa that I expected for the sunset cruise! I chose the Cattleya course, but the steak wasn't good. However, it was nice to have a place to go outside during the cruise, to celebrate everyone's birthday warmly, and the live performance by the musicians was great!
サンセットクルーズなのに期待通りの沖縄の夕日では、ありませんでした!
カトレアコースにしましたが、ステーキが美味しくなかったです。
クルーズ中外に出れる所、誕生日を皆んなで温かくお祝いする所、ミュージシャンの生演奏が良かったです!

I couldn't see the sunset, but I had a great time slowly cruising around Naha Port. I've been to Okinawa several times, but I've never seen a beautiful sunset. It might be because it's always in May, and the clouds tend to hide it.
The cruise had excellent service, and I was happy with the surprise they prepared for my anniversary. The barbecue was plentiful and delicious.
Next time, I might sign up for the night view tour!
サンセットは見れなかったけども那覇港をゆっくりグルグルできて楽しかったです。沖縄に何回か行ってるけど綺麗な夕日をみたことがありません。雲で隠れちゃう。時期は毎回5月だからかもしれないですが。
クルーズはサービスしっかりで記念日にあったサプライズをしてくれてうれしかったです。バーベキューも量たっぷりおいしかったです。
次は夜景に申し込もうかなあー。
Dear Hiyoko,
Thank you for joining our Sunset Dinner Cruise. I apologize for the delay in my response.
I am sorry to hear that you were unable to enjoy the sunset due to the changing weather in Okinawa.
The night view cruise is less affected by the weather, so it is recommended during the unstable seasons. I believe you will be able to experience a completely different atmosphere of Naha Port in the evening.
We sincerely look forward to welcoming you again.

この度はサンセットディナークルーズにご乗船いただきましてありがとうございました。お返事が遅れましたことお詫び申し上げます。
沖縄の天候は変わりやすく、サンセットをお楽しみいただけなかったとのことで申し訳なく思います。
夜景クルーズは天候にあまり左右されないため、天候の不安定な季節にはおすすめでございます。
夕方とはまったく違う那覇港の雰囲気を味わっていただけるかと思います。
またのご機会を心よりお待ち申し上げます。

Thank you for boarding the underwater sightseeing boat, Orca.
All of our staff were truly delighted to read your kind words.
The sea and fish in Okinawa are indeed beautiful and moving, aren't they?
The conditions of the sea change daily due to the season and tidal currents, so we are glad to hear that you were able to enjoy the underwater views.
The underwater sightseeing boat can be enjoyed by families of all ages, and we sincerely look forward to the day when your parents can join you all on your next visit.
