All Ages Underwater Sightseeing Cruise Ship Orca with Departure from Naha

Extremely difficult to find the meeting venue

Reviewed by: Min

The cruise itself was ok and underwater coral reef is amazing.

It was rainy when I went on the cruise so didn't get to see much.

The worst part is the location of the meeting venue. The building was under construction and if you don't read Japanese, it's hard to find.

Don't expect English.

Even though the typhoon passed three days ago, I couldn't see anything due to the aftermath. It would have been nice to have a refund or a ticket for the next visit. I hope to see a beautiful ocean next time.

台風は3日前に去っていても余波で何にも見えませんでした。返金か次回観れる券があると良かったです。次回は綺麗な海をみたいです。

I signed up for this just two days ago after arriving in Okinawa. I participated with my two children, so there were four of us in total. The sea was incredibly beautiful, and while the view from the water was naturally stunning, I was also able to see the fish up close. It was a refreshing experience that made me forget the scorching heat outside. I highly recommend it.

沖縄現地に入ってから、二日前に急遽申込みました。子供２人と共に４人で参加しました。
海は非常に綺麗で、海上からの景色も当然綺麗ですが、魚も手に取るように見え、外の灼熱の暑さを忘れる、清々しい気持ちに包まれました。お薦めです。

The limited-time discount made it a great deal at 7,800 yen for my spouse and one child. I think the time spent underwater was about 15 to 20 minutes. Since it was in coastal waters, the visibility wasn't as good as I had hoped. I recommend it for families with small children.

Underwater sightseeing in Naha. 那覇で海中観光

Reviewed by: お姉様

I used the service last November. It wasn't a clear day, but we were able to depart, and since there were no waves, the boat didn't rock, allowing us to see a certain amount underwater. If the boat is not crowded, it's better to look out from the windows on both sides. Depending on the light, the color of the sea changes, and you can see different types of fish. I think I made the reservation the day before or two days before, hoping to join on a nice weather day.

The underwater scenery is beautiful, and there are new discoveries to be made. It's a reasonable experience with a diving sensation, and we also had lunch, making it an affordable and recommended sightseeing option.

昨年11月に利用致しました。快晴ではありませんでしたが、出発できましたし、波がなかった為、船が揺れませんでしたし、ある程度海中を見る事ができました。船が空いていれば、左右両側の窓から見た方が良いです。光の加減で海の色が違ったり、魚たちの種類が違ったりします。お天気の良い日を見計らって参加しようと、前日か前々日に予約したと思います。
海中は美しく、新しい発見があります。ダイビング感覚の体験とランチも頂けてリーズナブル、お手頃な観光でお薦めです。

I signed up for the tour because it promised a full refund guarantee if whales were not sighted, but the tour representative told me it was not within the refund guarantee period. In reality, I didn't see any whales and received no refund, which feels like being deceived.

At first, I was anxious, wondering if I had mistakenly booked the wrong tour since I didn't know where I would be able to see the fish from the boat. However, once we arrived at the designated spot, we were guided to the bottom of the boat and were able to see the fish underwater. Although the water was murky, I was glad to see a lot of coral.

I'm glad the weather improved, but for someone like me who isn't used to being on a boat, the waves seemed quite high. However, despite the height of the waves, the rocking was minimal and it felt safe. The staff took great care of those who were prone to seasickness.

As for the main event, the whale watching, they seemed quite skilled at it and accurately located and communicated the position of the whales.

Heavy rain. 雨激降り

Reviewed by: けろよ

It was soaking wet just about 20 meters from the building to the boarding area. They provided free raincoats, but they were too short, so my lower half ended up a mess... I was informed in advance that visibility wasn't great, and with little rain protection and the cold sea breeze, my spirits were pretty low.

However, when we arrived at the spot and moved to the viewing area below, I was pleasantly surprised to see quite a few people there! Although there weren't as many colorful fish as I had expected, I could see relatively far into the depths, and it was moving to realize that natural fish were living in the vast sea. I've done scuba diving before, but I thought it was great to be able to peek into the ocean without getting wet and without a headache.

建物から乗り場に向かう20m程度でびっしゃびしゃでした。無料でカッパを配布して頂いたのですが長さが足りず下半身はぐちゃぐちゃに。。。視界もあまり良くないと事前に説明があり、あまり雨よけもなく海風で寒いしテンションだだ下がりでした。
スポットに着いて下の展望スペースに移ると、意外といる！！と嬉しかったです。思ったよりカラフルな魚は少なかったですが比較的奥まで見渡せ、広い海に自然の魚が生きてるんだなぁ、と感慨深かったです。スキューバもやったことがありますが、濡れずに頭痛もなく海の中が覗けるのは良いと思いました。

Motion sickness medication is a must. 酔い止めは必須です

Reviewed by: dormitorian

We went whale watching off the coast of the Kerama Islands. I think the one hour of slow cruising to search for whales has a high possibility of causing seasickness. I felt that taking motion sickness medication is essential. Since we are dealing with nature, it's hard to predict the necessary time. We departed at 9 AM and returned at 1 PM, but it took longer than expected, so we had to reduce the number of sightseeing spots.

慶良間列島の沖合まで出てホエールウォッチングをしました。
クジラを探すため低速クルージングしている１時間が船酔いする可能性が高いと思われます。酔い止めは必須と感じました。
自然が相手なので必要な時間が読めません。我々は9時出港で13時帰港となったのですが、予想よりも時間がかかったので観光する場所を減らさざるを得なくなりました。

First whale watching experience. 初めてのホエールウォッチ

Reviewed by: あっき

I've loved whales since I was young, and I wanted to see one up close at least once in my life, so I participated in this tour. Since they are wild animals, I listened to the guide's explanation that encountering them depends on luck, which made me nervous, but fortunately, we encountered a mother and her calf. I've seen footage on TV, but seeing them in person was incredibly moving. The kids were also thrilled! If you're not good on boats, it might be a good idea to take some motion sickness medication beforehand.

昔からクジラが好きで、一生のうちで一回は間近でクジラを見てみたくて参加しました。自然の生き物なので、時期的に遭遇出来るかは運だとガイドさんの説明を聞いて、ドキドキしましたが、幸運にも親子のクジラに遭遇できました。テレビなどで映像は見たことがありましたが、やはり実物は最高に感動しました。子供たちも大喜びしてました～。船が苦手な方は事前に酔い止めの薬を飲んでおいたほうがいいかもです。

It was a day that seemed normal, but there was no shaking, and the visibility underwater was not bad. The viewing spot stayed longer than I expected, so I was able to enjoy it slowly.
The comfort on the boat was also good. I was happy to hear explanations about the scenery visible from the deck.

After that, I had lunch at the Pacific Hotel, which offered a variety of Japanese and Western dishes, and there were plenty of drink options as well, so I was very satisfied.

I would like to use this again when I go to Okinawa.

Poor visibility. 視界悪し

Reviewed by: チュルッピー

I was looking forward to possibly seeing sea turtles based on reviews. On the day of the trip, the weather was partly sunny but mostly cloudy. After completing the check-in, just before departure, the staff announced the visibility level (level 5 being the best). That day, it was level 2, which meant visibility was poor. (I heard level 1 means you can't see anything... maybe we should cancel then.) Once we got out to sea, we moved to the lower deck of the boat. The visibility was indeed as the staff had said, bad... But even with that, we could see some things. Mainly corals, small fish, and sea snakes, with the occasional larger, less cute fish. Haha. I definitely think it's best to go during the peak season on a sunny day. I suggest not rushing your reservation; it might be better to check the weekly weather forecast first. Also, even if it's hot in town, it can be quite windy on the boat, so I recommend bringing a jacket.

口コミで、運がよければウミガメが見られるかも…とのことで、楽しみにしていました。
当日、天気はいくらか晴れ間が見えるものの曇り。受付を終わらせ、出発直前にスタッフから視界のレベルの発表がありました。(レベル５が最高)
この日はレベル２。見えづらい、とのこと。(レベル１は見えないらしい…それ、中止にしようよ)
船で沖に出たところで船内の地下に移動。視界は、スタッフの言う通り悪い…。
でも悪いなりに、それなりには見えました。
主にサンゴと小魚と、ウミヘビ。たまに大きめのかわいくない魚。笑
やはりベストシーズンで天気のいい日に行くのがいいと思いました。
予約は急がず、週間天気予報を見てからでも遅くないかなと。
あと、町は暑くても、船上は結構風が強いので、上着の持参をオススメします。

First ride on the Orca! オルカ号初乗船♪

Reviewed by: みぃな

It was our first boat ride with our child who just turned 4 years old. Since it was a windy day, we were informed during the boarding instructions that the fish would be hard to see.

We were allowed to move freely between the first and second floors until we reached the point to see the fish. It was a bit cold, but our child, who loves rides and was experiencing a boat for the first time, was very excited!

When we arrived at the point, we entered the underground room where we could see the fish. I wasn't expecting much since we were told visibility would be poor, but there were actually quite a few fish! I was worried about seasickness, but it turned out fine.

While on the boat, there was a continuous explanation about the Orca, but it was a bit disappointing that the engine noise and other sounds were too loud to hear it well. I would like to ride again next time when the water clarity is better!

4歳になったばかりの子供を連れて初乗船でした。風が強い日だったので乗船前の説明でお魚は見えにくいとのことでした。
お魚を見るポイントに着くまでは1階と2階は自由に行き来して良かったです^o^
少し寒かったですが乗り物が大好きで船も初めて乗った子供は大興奮でした！！
ポイントに着くとお魚が見える地下のお部屋に入ります♪見えにくいとのことだったので期待はしていませんでしたが、結構沢山お魚さんはいました♪船酔いするか心配もしましたが大丈夫でした^o^
船に乗ってる間オルカ号の説明がずっと流れているんですが、エンジン音などその他の音がうるさくてあまり聞こえなかったのが残念です。

All Ages Underwater Sightseeing Cruise Ship Orca with Departure from Naha

Underwater Sightseeing - At its best

Reviewed by: Prasanna SP

Hi,
I was a little skeptical while booking the Underwater Sightseeing cruise . Saw a lot of reviews and choose this tour. I am so happy that I choose this tour. It was a perfectly sunny day with high tide. The tour organizers informed that the visibility level is low, even before the tour begun. We were made to travel in the boat for 15-20 minutes into the Sea, before being asked to get to the seabed observation deck that opens up only after the boat reaches a particular area in the sea.
My kids loved what they saw - It was absolutely beautiful to watch the amazing underwater seabed with its own flora/fauna , fishes. Its so much different from what we get to see in an aquarium like Churaumi. This is LIVE & pretty much Alive ! Though the organizers told us that visibility is going to be low, it was much better than we initially thought of. The Boat takes a full circle allowing the guests to have a full view of the ocean floor.
I would recommend anyone to take this boat ride & have great fun. The kids will absolutely enjoy it !

I was able to see a mother and baby whale quite up close. かなり近くで、親子のクジラを見れました。

Reviewed by: rope

I traveled to Okinawa with two friends in March for a two-night, three-day trip. Unfortunately, we weren't able to see much of the beautiful ocean due to the weather. However, on the last day, which was our whale watching day, the weather was perfect. The guide was very friendly and made the experience enjoyable.

At first, I was worried that we wouldn't see any whales, but we were able to see them clearly. It was also memorable to see a mother and baby whale together.

There were many people on the boat, including not only Japanese tourists but also a lot of foreign tourists, such as those from China. Since it had been rainy for several days, the waves were a bit high, and it seemed that more than half of the foreign tourists were seasick. However, our group had no issues. I tend to get motion sickness easily, so I took some medication beforehand, which helped. I recommend that anyone who is worried about seasickness take some medication as well.

Overall, it was a satisfying tour with good weather and no seasickness.

3月に友人と３人で利用しました。２泊３日の沖縄旅行でしたが、天候に恵まれずあまり綺麗な海を見れていませんでした。最終日のホエールウォッチングの日だけとてもよく晴れました。ガイドのお兄さんも、とってもフレンドリーで楽しかったです。
最初は、クジラが見れなかったどうしようと思っていましたが、しっかりと見ることができました。また、親子のクジラを見ることができたのも印象深かったです。
船には多くの人が乗っていて、日本人だけでなく中国人観光客など外国人が多かったです。雨の日が続いていたこともあり、若干波が高かったこともあり外国人の観光客の方の半分以上が船酔いしていたようでしたが、私たちグループは問題ありませんでした。もともと、酔いやすいタイプなので事前に酔い止めを飲んで防げたので、心配な方は酔い止めを服用するといいと思います。
船酔いすることもなく、いい天気で楽しいツアーだったので満足です。

Orca adventure

Reviewed by: George

Me and my girlfriend decided to go on a trip to ride on a underwater sightseeing cruise. It was really easy to find the place and it's about a 45 minute drive from kadena if your taking the expressway from kadena going to Naha and about an hour going 58 depending on how the traffic flow would be. Anyway, I'd say it's been an average experience cause we didn't exactly have of good view underwater cause of the unexpected weather so the sand under the water is everywhere but it was amusing on how the crew brings out the fish towards you, you'd be on this boat that carries about 20 to 30 people out to the ocean It was about 5 miles out of the port to reach our destination and has a way to go below the boat with seats in the middle and has glass on both sides so you can see the fish, I was really surprised and me and my girlfriend really enjoyed it but I got sea sick after 10 minutes of staring at the fish which took us a total of 1hr and a half tour.

First experience! 初体験！

Reviewed by: 石川 純子

It was my first cruise, and I had a wonderful time. It was also my first time in Okinawa, and with favorable weather, I experienced this with my family, feeling a bit anxious at first. However, we were able to enjoy ourselves immensely.

Before boarding, I had some worries about seasickness and hoped there would be fish to see. But once the cruise started, there was hardly any rocking of the boat, and I didn't get seasick at all. I could sit back and elegantly gaze at the sea, and other passengers were also smiling and enjoying themselves.

Near the boarding area, there was an airport where we could see planes taking off and landing, which was very exciting. Through the glass windows, we could see various types of fish, and with the guide's explanations, I learned a lot about them, which was fascinating. The fish with six stripes was particularly impressive. However, since the explanations were only in Japanese, I was a bit concerned whether the foreign guests understood.

The duration of about 50 minutes was just right, but if I could wish for more, I would have liked to see fish at another spot. It was such a fun experience, and my family and I had a valuable time together. By the way, near the boarding area, there was a diner where we could enjoy delicious, affordable, and hearty meals. The staff at the diner informed us about it, allowing us to have a good meal before departure. Overall, the staff's attentive service was greatly appreciated, especially since it was our first time for so many things.

Next time I come to Okinawa, I would like to participate in a cruise with a lunch voucher. Thank you very much. Additionally, this trip was a memorial for my mother, and I greatly appreciated the accommodating response to our sudden changes, which made for very good memories.

初めてのクルーズでしたが、とても楽しい時間を過 初めての沖縄、初めてのクルーズ、天候にも恵まれ初めての沖縄、初めてのクルーズということで、親親子共々少し不安ななかでの体験でしたが、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
船に乗る前は、船酔いしたらどうしよう‥‥魚がいなかったら悲しいな‥‥などと、少し不安な気持ちもありました。しかし、実際にクルーズが始まると、
船の揺れもほとんどなく、船酔いはしませんでした。椅子に座って優雅に海を眺めることができ、他の乗客の方々も笑顔で過ごされていました。
乗り場の近くには飛行場もあり、飛行機の離着陸が見られたことも、とてもワクワクして楽しかったです。ガラス張りの窓からは、いろいろな種類の魚が見え、添乗員さんの説明もあり、魚のことを知ることができておもしろかったです。特に、６本の線がある魚が印象的でした。ただ、説明が日本語だけだったので、外国の方は理解できているのかなとちょっと気になりました。約５０分間という時間も丁度よかったのですが欲を言えば、別のポイントの魚も見てみたかったです。それくらいとても楽しく、親子で貴重な体験をすることができました。ちなみに、船の乗り場の近くには、安くて美味しくボリューミーな料理が堪能できる食堂もありました。その食堂は受付の方が教えてくださり、出発前に腹ごしらえをすることができました。全体的にスタッフの方々の対応が丁寧で、いろいろと初めて尽くしの私たちにはとてもありがたかったです。
今度、沖縄に来た時はランチ券付きのクルーズに参加したいと思います。

After the typhoon passed, the timing was unfortunate, but if the weather is calm, it would definitely be a magical underwater experience! 台風が去った後でタイミングが悪し、穏やかであれば絶対に幻想的な海底体験！

Reviewed by: ポポロ工作室

To board the large passenger ship Orca, which has an underwater viewing room, you first head to the waiting area at Naha Port, located about a 15-minute walk from Asahibashi Station on the monorail (Yui Rail). When we visited, the left side was under renovation. Upon entering, there is a display next to the ticket counter showing "Today's Water Quality, Today's Swell" in stages. This display has five levels, and we were at the second lowest level (a state with some swaying and slightly murky water).

After waiting for a while, we boarded the ship, which headed to a point suitable for underwater viewing. During the journey, we enjoyed the blue sky, sparkling sea, and refreshing sea breeze from the upper deck. Upon arrival at the point, we descended to the underwater viewing room, where we could observe the seabed through glass. The room has benches in the middle, with guests seated on both sides.

What should have been a beautiful view of coral and tropical fish in a deep blue fantasy world was unfortunately not the case for us. It seemed we had bad timing, as the sign indicated that the sand on the seabed was stirred up, resulting in a slightly murky view. Coral and tropical fish were barely visible. It is said that after a large typhoon passes, the seabed changes to this state.

If the seabed were calm, the underwater viewing room on the Orca would be enveloped in a fantastical world. There are also plans that include lunch, so if the timing of the ocean currents is right, this optional tour could be a meaningful Naha experience that combines cruising and underwater exploration.

海底を除く地下室のある大型客船オルカ号に乗車するには、まずモノレール（ゆいレール）の旭橋駅から徒歩15分ほどの場所にある那覇埠頭の待合所へ向かいます。私たちが訪れた際は左側が改修工事中でした。中に入りますと窓口の横に「今日の水質、今日の揺れ」が段階的に示された案内が設置されています。この案内は５つのレベルがありまして、私たちは下から二番目（ある程度揺れがある状態、海が濁っていて少し見にくい状態）の状態でした。

しばらく待機した後は船に乗り込みます。船は海底鑑賞に適したポイントへと向かいます。その間、私たちは上の階から青い空ときらきら光る海、そして爽やかな潮風を堪能します。ポイントへ到着すると地下室へと降り、ここでガラスを通じて海底を鑑賞します。部屋は長椅子が真ん中にあり、両側に客が座るような構造となっています。

この窓から見るも美しい、サンゴと熱帯魚が舞う紺碧の幻想世界が広がっているーーはずだったのですが、残念ながら私たちはタイミングが悪かったようです。看板の案内にあった通り、海底の砂が巻き上がっているようで、少し濁った状態でした。サンゴや熱帯魚はほんのりと見える程度のものです。大型台風が過ぎた後は、海底がこのような状態へと変わるのだと言います。

穏やかな海底であれば、このオルカ号の地下室はファンタジー溢れる世界に包まれる事でしょう。昼食付きのプランもありますので、海流のタイミングが良ければ、こちらのオプションツアーはクルーズと海底探査を兼ねた意義のある那覇体験になると思います。

大型水中観光船オルカ号クルーズ 海底ウォッチング　0歳から参加可能！選べる出発時間！＜半日／那覇発＞

The whole family was deeply moved. 一家で大感動

Reviewed by: あさみ

This time, I participated with my husband and our 2-year-old daughter. Since our daughter is still 2 years old, I thought a tour where we could see fish from the boat would be just right. While waiting in the lounge, the level of the boat's sway and the visibility underwater were displayed, which was helpful. I believe the sway was at level 3, but in reality, the boat's movement was hardly noticeable.

Now, I was surprised that the Orca was quite an ordinary boat. I had imagined something like a submarine... like a Yellow Submarine. I wondered if this was going to dive underwater? No, right?

As we set sail, we enjoyed the view of Naha while feeling the wind on the boat. After a while, a staff member guided us to a room that led to the boat's lower deck. I understood what it was about.

It was a glass-walled room that opened up to the underwater world. The beauty of it instantly lifted my spirits. "Wow! So this is what the bottom of the sea looks like?" It was amazing. Schools of fish, coral, and jellyfish were floating around. They also provided explanations.

Our daughter was captivated by the underwater world and wasn't scared at all. Both my husband and I are not good at sports, and we thought diving would be scary and tiring, so we felt it was something we would never do. However, riding the Orca allowed us to discover the underwater world for the first time. It was truly mystical! The day before, we had visited the Churaumi Aquarium, but what we saw there was completely different. I had thought, "We're already seeing fish at the aquarium," but it was entirely another experience. Everything was a first for us.

The tour ended after about an hour. I didn't feel seasick at all. Since we booked the earliest time slot, we headed straight to the beach afterward to swim. It was great to make effective use of our time.

Oh, and before disembarking, we received a magnet from the Orca as a souvenir, enough for everyone. That made me happy too. If I have another opportunity to travel to Okinawa, I would like to invite my grandparents to join us. Thank you very much.

今回、私、夫、2歳の娘と参加しました。
娘がまだ2歳なので、船から魚の見れるツアーはちょうどいいかなと思って決めました。
待合で待っていると、本日の船の揺れや、海の中見える度が、レベルで表示されていて、参考になりました。確か、揺れますのレベル3でしたが、実際船の揺れは気にならない程度でした。
さて、案内されたオルカ号は案外普通の船でびっくりしました。私はいかにも潜水艦をイメージしていました。・・イエローサブマリンみたいな。これが海の中潜るの？違うよね、と。
出航して船上から風をきり、那覇の景色を楽しみました。しばらくして係の方が船の地下に続く部屋を案内してくれました。
そういうことか、とわかりました。
そこはガラス張りの部屋で海底の世界が広がっていました。あまりの綺麗さに一気にテンション上がりました。
えー！今いた海の底ってこんな風になってたの？すごいね。といった具合に。
魚の群れ、さんご、クラゲもフワフワしてました。解説もしてくれました。
娘も怖がらず、海底の世界に釘付けでした。
私も夫も、スポーツ苦手で、怖いし疲れそうだしダイビングなど一生縁がない感じでしたが、オルカ号に乗って初めて海底の世界を知ることができました。
本当神秘的！前日にちゅらうみ水族館行ったのですが、そこで見た世界とは全然違いました。
水族館で魚見てるしなぁ、と少し思ってたのですが、まったく別物です。全て初めて見た景色でした。
一時間程でツアーは終了。船酔いもまったくしませんでした。
朝一の時間帯で申し込んだので、その後すぐビーチに向かい泳ぎました。時間が有効に使えて良かったです。
あ、それと、下船の前にオルカ号のマグネットをお土産にいただきました。ちゃんと人数分。これも嬉しかったです。
次回沖縄旅行の機会があれば、おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんも誘って一緒に行きたいです。ありがとうございました。

大型水中観光船オルカ号クルーズ 海底ウォッチング　0歳から参加可能！選べる出発時間！＜半日／那覇発＞

Perfect for families with children under 5 years old!! 5歳以下の子連れファミリーに最高！！

Reviewed by: まんぷく丸

I just returned from Okinawa, where I brought snorkeling gear right after the rainy season ended, but unfortunately, snorkeling is prohibited in most areas due to the high number of accidents. It seems the only way to snorkel is to join a tour, and there are age restrictions that require participants to be at least 6 years old. So, I found this tour that allows children under 5 to participate for free, which is perfect for families with many kids!

Additionally, younger children aged 2 to 4, who might be scared of the ocean, will likely enjoy this experience very much.

Once on board, you can sit on the first or second deck and enjoy the sea breeze while waiting to reach the destination. When you arrive, you move downstairs to sit and observe the fish in the water. Although it's hot outside, the air-conditioned lower deck is cool and comfortable for viewing. Little kids get excited spotting the fish.

While it may lack the thrill of snorkeling or diving for us adults who know the joys of those activities, this tour prioritizes the children's experience.

The meeting point is conveniently located near the airport and in Naha city, and the tour lasts about an hour, making it easy to sign up and go. There is paid parking right in front, but since you won't be parked for long, it's just a few hundred yen.

With the airport nearby, planes were constantly flying overhead, and the kids were thrilled to spot them from the boat.

This was an excellent tour for families with small children!

梅雨明けしたばかりの沖縄にシュノーケリンググッズを抱えて行ってきましたが、ナント沖縄の海は事故が多いからと、ほとんどの海でシュノーケリングは禁止。シュノーケリングはツアーで参加するしかないとのこと。しかしそのシュノーケリングツアーも6歳以上と参加条件あり。。。で、5歳の子どもを連れて沖縄の海を満喫するには、、、と見つけたこのツアーです。

5歳以下の子どもは参加費無料なので、子沢山の子連れファミリーには最高！！
その上、実際の海はまだ怖がる2〜4歳くらいの子どもは、とっても喜んでくれると思います。

乗船したら1、2階席に座って、海風を感じながら目的地まで待ちます。
目的地まで着いたら、地下に移動し、座って海の中のお魚を観察できます。
外は暑いですが、この地下はエアコン効いてて涼しく、快適に見れます。
小さな子どもはお魚を見つけてはキャッキャッと喜んでいます。
シュノーケリングやダイビングの醍醐味を知っている私達大人とっては感動に欠けますが、ここは子ども優先のツアーということで。


集合場所も空港や那覇市内から近く、ツアー所要時間も1時間くらいなので、気軽に申し込みでき、行けます。駐車場は目の前で別途有料ですが、長時間停めないので数百円です。

空港が近いので飛行機がバンバン飛んでて、船上からそれを見つけては喜んでいました。

小さい子ども連れには最高のツアーでした。
