Since my son liked it, we took a glass-bottom boat ride in Kabira Bay again. The captain skillfully anchored the boat so we could observe the beautiful fish and coral, which was very interesting. Even though it wasn't far away, there were both deep and shallow areas, and I was impressed by how varied Kabira Bay is.
息子が気に入ったので、川平湾のグラスボートに再度乗船しました。綺麗な魚や珊瑚があると船長さんが巧みな運転技術で船を留めてよく観察できるようにしてくれるので、とてもおもしろかったです。そう離れていないのに、水深は深いところも浅いところもあって、川平湾の中はこんな風なのかと感動しました。

This was actually my second time experiencing this. When I arrived at Kabira Bay, I was immediately captivated by the beautiful sea. Just seeing this scenery makes me truly feel that it was worth coming here.
After thoroughly enjoying the view, I completed the check-in and finally boarded the boat. Depending on the day and the boat, the number of guests may vary, but those who boarded together are bound by some connection and will become companions to enjoy the cruise until the end.
While admiring the beautiful coastal scenery, the boat soon headed to the coral point. The captain guided us while we admired the beautiful branching corals and round corals. There were many mysterious creatures on the seabed. Various colorful fish, including a type of clownfish, decorated the bottom of the boat.
The boat continued further out, depending on the day and the captain, venturing boldly into the open sea. It felt like we were almost near the open ocean, as the color of the water deepened to a more vibrant blue, revealing the depth below. The mystery increased, and we encountered coral formations that could only be seen while diving, along with larger fish.
Before long, the cruise came to an end, and we returned to the shore, fully satisfied. Finally, I indulged in delicious Blue Seal ice cream at one of the many shops near the check-in area, or enjoyed tasty Yaeyama soba at the park tea house. This was an absolutely recommended glass-bottom boat tour.
実は生涯2回目、リピートしての体験です。
川平湾に着いたら先ず、美しい海にウットリ。
あー、この景色を見るだけで、本当に来てよかったと思うこと間違いありません。
たっぷり景色を堪能したら、受付を済ませ、いよいよボートに乗船。
日によって、便によってお客さんの入りもマチマチかと思いますが、一緒に乗ったのは何かの縁、最後までクルーズを楽しむ仲間となります。
美しい岸辺の景色を見ながら、ボートは程なくしてサンゴポイントへ。綺麗なエダサンゴや丸いサンゴをみつつ、船長さんがガイドしてくれます。
海底には不思議な生き物が沢山。クマノミの一種や、それに属するような色々な煌びやかな魚達が、ボートの底面を彩ってくれます。
ボートは更に進み、日によって?船長さんによって?グングン沖に繰り出して行きます。もう、ほとんど外海に近いのか、底面の色は益々青く一変し、深度が伺える沖合に出てきました。
神秘さは更に増して、ダイビングでもしなければ見られないようなサンゴの群生、更にサイズの大きな魚達と巡り会えました。
程なくしてクルーズは終了、大満喫のうちに岸辺に戻り。最後は受付付近に沢山ある売店で、美味しいブルーシールアイスを堪能。若しくは公園茶屋で美味しい八重山そばを食べるのお良いでしょう。
以上、絶対オススメのグラスボートツアーをお届けしました。
Thank you very much for boarding our glass-bottom boat tour. Just gazing at the scenery of Kabira Bay makes time fly by before you know it. The view from the glass-bottom boat also changes with each moment. If you have the opportunity again, please join us once more.

Perhaps because it was during Golden Week, there were two groups entering the space to view the seabed (one group from the first floor and another from the second floor). As a result, the waiting time felt very long. The visibility was also not good at all, so I thought it would be better to leave quickly. I don't think I will ride this boat again.
GW中だからか、海底を見るスペースに入るグループが2グループ(最初1階にいた人、2階にいた人)となっていた。なので、待ち時間が非常に長く感じた。視界も全然良好でないので、さっさと帰ればいいのになと思った。もうこの船に乗る事はないでしょう。

I finally visited Kabira Bay, which I had wanted to see for a long time, and decided to take a glass-bottom boat! It was wonderful to peek into the underwater world, which is quite different from what you see from above! I even got to see unique corals like Nemo and potatoes! Although it was a large boat, I found myself feeling seasick from looking down while it was swaying, so I wish I had taken some motion sickness medication.
ずっと行きたかった川平湾なので、グラスボートにも乗ってみることにしました!外から見るのとはまた違った海の中の世界を覗くことができてとても良かったです!ニモやじゃがいものような変わった珊瑚にも会えました!大型船とは言え、揺れる船の中ずっと下を見ると船酔いしやすいので、酔い止めを服用したら良かったなと思いました。
Thank you very much for boarding! The view from the observatory at Kabira Bay is beautiful, and the underwater scenery is also stunning. Especially during high tide, the water clarity improves, leading to a higher satisfaction level. For those who are sensitive to motion sickness... if you keep looking at the glass surface while the boat is moving, you may feel nauseous. Enjoy the scenery, and when you reach the points of interest, peeking in will help reduce seasickness. Please keep this in mind for your next boarding. We look forward to your participation again!
ご乗船くださいまして、誠にありがとうございました!
川平湾は展望台からの景色はもちろんのこと、海の中もとても綺麗です。
特に上げ潮の時間帯は透明度が高くなりますので、満足度も高くなります。
船に弱いかたは・・・
走っているときにガラス面をずーっと見ていると、酔いやすくなります。
景色も楽しみながら、ポイントに入ったときに覗き込むようにすると、船酔いは少なくなります。
次回ご乗船の際は、ご参考になさってください。

I used this service for the first time. Honestly, I didn't have high expectations at first, but once I participated, I was amazed by how beautiful the sea was. It wasn't just fish that were gathered by feeding; I was able to enjoy the natural underwater world. At one point, a huge fish swam right under the boat! It was a coveted giant trevally! I guess it depends on luck as well. I'm glad I got to see it. The clownfish were also adorable. I want to use this service again!
初めて利用させていただきました。正直最初はあまり期待してなかったのですが…いざ参加してみると海がとにかく綺麗で餌付けして無理に集めた魚達では無く自然そのものの海中世界を堪能出来ました。途中、一瞬巨大魚が船底を通り抜けて行った!釣り人の憧れロウニンアジが!これまた運にもよるところかと。見れて良かった。
ニモも可愛かった。

In mid-March, I participated with my family of four (my spouse, a 3-year-old, and a 0-year-old). On the way there, my wife and child got seasick due to the unexpectedly high waves and rocking of the boat, but we were able to refresh both our minds and bodies during our break and beach stroll on Tokashiki Island. The beach was beautiful and felt great.
During the whale watching, with the guidance of our guide and captain, we were able to see whales multiple times! (They mentioned that there were more sightings than usual.) It was an exhilarating moment that made us forget about the seasickness.
I recommend that those who are not good with vehicles or have little experience on small boats take motion sickness medication in advance.
3月中旬に家族4名(夫婦+3歳・0歳)で参加しました。
往路では想定以上の波の高さ・揺れに妻と子が船酔いしてしまいましたが、渡嘉敷島での休憩兼ビーチ散策で心も体もリフレッシュできました。ビーチは綺麗で気持ちよかったです。
ホエールウォッチングではガイドさん・船長さんの案内の元、何度もクジラの姿を見ることができました!(いつもより多めにでてきてくれたとのこと)
船酔いも忘れて大興奮のひと時でした。
乗り物が苦手な方、小型船の経験が少ない方は事前に酔い止めを飲むことをお勧めします。

A few years ago, when I took a glass-bottom boat, I didn't have a very good experience due to the weather... but this time, we were blessed with great weather and even encountered the sea turtles that my wife had been eagerly waiting to see. It was also a great help that we were able to change our boarding time right after we arrived at the reception, as my sons were sleeping. We don't often have the opportunity to go to Ishigaki Island, but once my sons are a bit older, I would like to participate in this tour again.
数年前、グラスボートに乗ったときには、天気の関係で、あまり良い思い出がなかったのですが…今回は天候に恵まれ、奥さん待望のウミガメにも遭遇できました。

Fortunately, I was able to meet a lot of people. It was a bit far, but I was able to see a lot.
I recommend filming videos, but if you're not very skilled with a camera, it's better to leave it to the professionals and focus on enjoying the experience.
I thought I would see more during the winter, but I heard that in March, towards the end of the season, you can encounter quite a bit.
It's essential to have significant measures against seasickness. Just taking motion sickness medication is not enough, and I felt sorry for my son who came with me. I think the adults managed their own measures, but it was quite chaotic.
However, despite that discomfort, I'm glad I was able to see it!
幸いなことに、たくさん出会えることができました。少し遠かったのは残念でしたが、いっぱい見れました。
動画撮影はおすすめですが、カメラは余程の腕がない方は、もうプロにお任せして、見ることに専念する方が良いです(^^)v
冬の時期の方が見れるかと思いましたが、シーズン終わりかけの3月は結構遭遇できるとのことです。
かなりかなりの船酔い対策は必須です。酔い止めだけでは難しく、一緒に行った息子にはかわいそうなことをしました。大人の方もそれなりに対策されたと思いますが、バタバタと。。
ただ、その苦痛があっても見れて良かったです!!

I've visited Okinawa many times, but I had never experienced this before, so this time I signed up for this tour with hotel pick-up in Naha City!
I was worried because it was raining in the afternoon, but by the time we set sail, it was beautifully sunny, with no wind and calm waves, so I had no worries about seasickness at all!
In the first half of the tour, we didn't see any whales at all, and just when I was starting to give up, we spotted a blow (spout) in the distance, and thanks to the captain chasing it at full speed, we were able to see it up close!
I didn't get to see it jump dramatically, but just encountering it was moving!
According to the guide, we were able to see six whales. They all looked the same to me, but I learned that the patterns on their tails are different!
It was a great experience!
何度も訪れている沖縄
一度も体験したことがなかったので、今回那覇市内ホテル送迎付きでこちらのツアーに申し込みしました!
午後便で、雨が降ったりで心配でしたが、出航時には見事に晴れて、風もなく波も穏やかで、船酔いの心配は全くありませんでした!
ツアー前半は全くクジラの姿がなく、少し諦めてた矢先、ブロー(潮吹き)が遠くの方で見えて、船長が全速力で追いかけてくれたおかげで、近くで見ることが出来ました!
豪快にジャンプする姿は見れませんでしたが、遭遇出来ただけでも感動しました!
ガイドさん曰く、6頭ものクジラに会えたそう
私には全てが同じに見えましたが、尾びれの模様が違うことを教えてくれました!

It took about an hour to reach offshore, and we spotted a whale. On this day, around 11 boats gathered for the observation. Each boat seemed to keep a distance while chasing the humpback whales, and perhaps due to the blue whales, we had to search for their surfacing spots, which felt like they were about 200 to 300 meters away from the boats. We were able to see breaching.
When I participated last January, there was a mother and calf whale, so their diving time was shorter, and at times we were as close as 10 meters, which felt much closer.
Since there were many international guests on board, I think it would have been more enjoyable if there had been explanations about the whales. (On another boat, there was a lecture, and they used an underwater microphone to listen to their calls, but I couldn't hear it...)
沖合まで約1時間掛けて、クジラ発見でした。
この日は11隻程の船が集結しての観察となりました。どの船も間隔を空けてザトウクジラを追いかける感じでしたし、オスクジラの為か、潜水すると浮上する場所を探すこととなり、船からは200〜300m離れたところにいた感じでした。ブリーチングが見れました。
前回1月に参加した時は、親子クジラだったので潜水時間も短く、10m程の距離の時もあったので遠かったです。
海外の方たちが多く乗船されていた為なのか、クジラについての説明があるともっと楽しめたと思います。(別船ではレクチャーがあり、水中マイクを入れて鳴き声を聞く様なこともありました。でも聴けなかったですけど、、、。)

It can't be helped.
Since it's nature, it can't be helped...
However, the tour only allowed us to see a few small blows and the backs of the whales a couple of times.
This was my third whale watching experience, but we only saw their backs this time.
What was even more disappointing was that there were no explanations about the whales' ecology or their calls during the trip.
Since it was a special tour, I really wanted some explanations.
But it was nice that we were allowed to sit across the railing at the bow of the boat when we reached the viewing point (^ - ^)
仕方ない。
自然が相手だから仕方ない…
でも小さめブローが数回、背中が数回見えただけのツアーになりました。
今回で3回目のホエールウォッチングでしたが、背中だけは今回だけでした。
でも、それより残念だったのは道中、鯨についての生態や泣き声等、なーんの説明もなかったこと。
折角のツアーなんだから、説明欲しかったな。
だけど、見えるポイントに着く頃になったら船首で柵を跨いで座らせてもらえたのは良かったけどね(^-^)

I was also told that it would be fine to reschedule for the next day, but I had plans for the following day, so I couldn't reschedule.
天候が悪かったので、あまり見えないとの説明がありました。当日は雨の予報だったのでギリギリまで運行するかはわからないとお電話いただきました。翌日に振替でもいいという話もいただきましたが、翌日は予定があったので振替できませんでした。

For my father's 77th birthday celebration, I gifted him a trip to Okinawa and arranged for him to participate in a sunset cruise. I wanted to surprise not only my father but also my mother, so I asked the staff in advance to help with a cake. The surprise was a great success, and my mother was so happy that she ended up in tears. She said it became the best memory of this trip. Thank you to all the staff for your warm hospitality.
父の喜寿のお祝いに沖縄旅行をプレゼントし、こちらのサンセットクルーズにも参加してもらいました。
サプライズでケーキを用意していただきましたが、今回は父だけでなく母にもサプライズにしたかったので事前にスタッフにお願いしておきました。
結果サプライズは大成功で、母は嬉しくて泣いてしまったようです。
今回の旅行で1番の思い出になったと喜んでおりました。
スタッフのみなさん、温かいおもてなしありがとうございました。

The beaches of Tokashiki Island were incredibly beautiful. I wished I could have stayed longer. During the whale watching, I was satisfied to see whales a few times. However, it's a matter of luck, and the whales were farther away than I expected (laughs). The guide was friendly and kind, which made for a comfortable experience.
渡嘉敷島のビーチがものすごく綺麗でした。もっと長く居たかったです。ホエールウォッチングでは何回かクジラが見れて満足でした。ただ、こればかりは運の問題なのですが、思っていたよりクジラが遠かったです(笑)ガイドさんが気さくで優しい方で居心地が良かったです。

I applied the evening before and received a call from the staff, which allowed me to participate smoothly. There were also foreign guests among the passengers, and I saw the staff explaining things using a smartphone. It was a tour that conveyed the desire for everyone to enjoy themselves.
前日夕方に申込みしましたが、スタッフの方よりの連絡を頂き、スムーズに参加出来ました。
乗船客の中には外国人の方もみえましたが、スマホ利用でスタッフの方が説明してる姿を拝見しました。みんなに楽しんで欲しいという気持ちが伝わってくるツアーでした。
Dear Eromo,

Thank you for your review.

On the day of the trip, it was sunny and the waves looked calm, but once we set sail, the boat rocked quite a bit. We took motion sickness medication, so we were fine, but many others seemed to be struggling with seasickness, and the staff appeared to be busy helping them. About two-thirds of the passengers were foreigners. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any whales, which made half of our precious trip feel wasted. It seems that the chances of encountering them are quite low in late December. In February, however, they say you can see them almost every day. Although the internet advertised a high probability of sightings, it didn't specify the timing, so we were unaware. We received a re-boarding ticket, but it's difficult for travelers to return during that period.
当日は晴れて波も穏やかに見えましたが、出港すると船はかなり揺れました。
私達は酔い止めを飲んでいたので大丈夫でしたが、かなりの方は酔って辛そうでスタッフの方々もお世話に追われている感じでした。
客層は3分の2位が外国の方でした。
残念なことにクジラには会えず、貴重な旅行の半日無駄になってしまいました( ; ; )
12月下旬では遭遇確率はかなり低いらしいです。
2月になればほとんど毎日見られるとのこと。
ネットに高確率で遭遇と謳ってあっても時期が記載されてないのでわかりませんでした。
再乗船券をいただきましたが、旅行者がその期間に再訪するのは難しいです。

The weather was nice, but the view underwater seemed different from what we saw from the port. Due to rough seas, we couldn't go out far, and I was told before departure that visibility was rated a 4 out of 5, meaning it wasn't very good.
However, even though the wind was blowing, it was sunny, and being on the boat felt great. There were quite a few foreign participants who were very happy and taking lots of photos.
The guide provided instructions, and when we went down to the lower part of the boat, it felt like we were inside a transparent box in the sea.
Fish were swimming beside us, and we could see them and the corals quite clearly! (It might be presumptuous to say this,) but while we couldn't swim with the fish, I felt like I understood a bit of what divers experience.
Families and their children were also enjoying themselves.
Although it was a short time, the organizers and guides were kind professionals, and I felt at ease. Thank you very much.
I would like to participate again.
お天気は良かったのですが、海の中は港から見た様子とは異なるようです。
しけで沖まで出れなく、見れる度合いも1-5段階であまり見れない、4と出発前にいわれました。
ですが、風は吹いていたものの、晴天で船の上は気持ち良かったです。
(参加者に外国人も結構いて、とても喜んで写真撮影をしていました。)
担当の方から案内があり、船の下の部分に降りていくと海の中で自分たちが透明の箱の中に入っている感じがしました。
身体の両脇に魚が泳いでいて、結構クリアに魚が泳いでいる様子やサンゴがみれました! (おこがましいかもしれませんが)魚と一緒に泳ぐ、等はできませんが、少しダイバーの気持ちがわかった気がしました。
家族連れの参加者やそのお子さんたちも楽しんでいました。
短い時間でしたが主催者の方や案内の方が親切なプロで安心して過ごせました。有難うございます。
また参加したいと思います。

Thank you very much for boarding. During times of high visibility, you can see clearly up to a depth of 30 meters! The glass-bottom boat in Kabira Bay allows you to view a variety of beautiful corals, from shallow areas to deeper ones. If you have the opportunity, please join us again at a different season or time.
ご乗船くださいまして、誠にありがとうございました。
透明度が高い時間帯は、水深30mまで綺麗に見えます!
浅瀬から深いエリアまで、変化に富んだ珊瑚がご覧頂けるのが川平湾のグラスボートです。
また機会がありましたら、季節や時間帯を変えて、ご参加くださいませ。
