All Reviews for Okinawa Kayaking / Canoeing

We visited Miyako Island for the first time on a family trip.

Since it was the off-season, I was worried that it might be too cold to go into the sea, but fortunately, it was sunny on the day of our visit! The wetsuit we rented felt almost too warm.

From Hachi, who was in charge, to everyone else, everyone was reliable, and I felt at ease enjoying the activities throughout. The inside of the limestone cave was more spacious than I expected, and I was able to feel the miracle of nature that took a long time to form.

My two scared daughters were anxious about being non-swimmers, but they said they wanted to go again. I'm glad they seemed to enjoy it.

Lastly, the boat was heavy to carry, and I almost felt like giving up. I think for an average person it wouldn’t be that tough, but I have a weak constitution. I'm feeling sore now, haha.

Overall, I highly recommend saying, "If you come to Miyako, you must go here!" Thank you to all the staff for your help. Thank you!

家族旅行で初めて宮古島を訪れました。

シーズンオフなので、海に入るのは寒いんじゃないかと心配しておりましたが、当日は運良く晴れ！お借りしたウエットスーツだと暑いくらいに感じました。

担当してくれたハチくんはじめ、みなさん頼りがいがあって終始安心してアクティビティを楽しめました。
思った以上に鍾乳洞の中も広く、長い年月をかけて作り上げられた大自然の奇跡を感じることが出来ました。

怖がりな娘2人もカナヅチでどうなるか不安でしたが、本人たち曰く、また行きたいと言っていました。楽しんでいたみたいで良かったです。

最後に男衆でボートを運ぶのだけ重くてへこたれそうになりました普通の人ならきっとそんなにキツくないと思うんですが、なにぶん虚弱体質なもので。筋肉痛です笑

全体通しては、宮古に来たらここへ行け！と言いたいくらいオススメです！スタッフのみなさん、お世話になりました。ありがとうございました！

The pumpkin cave tour I was looking forward to was canceled due to the waves, but I participated in the sea turtle snorkeling in the afternoon.

I was able to see two sea turtles, and our guide, Yusei, was handsome and very kind!

He took a lot of pictures with the sea turtles and clownfish, and I'm really glad I joined the tour!

When I come back to Miyako Island, I want to try the pumpkin cave again!

楽しみにしていたパンプキン鍾乳洞は波の影響で中止になってしまいましたが午後からウミガメシュノーケリングだけ参加しました。

ウミガメも2匹見れたしガイドの優生君はイケメンで凄く親切にしてくれました！

ウミガメやカクレクマノミと一緒の写真もたくさん撮ってくれてツアーに参加して本当に良かったです！

また宮古島に来た時はパンプキン鍾乳洞リベンジしたいです！

We were very lucky with the weather, enjoying a beautiful sunny day. We encountered several sea turtles, and the whole family was thrilled! We were surprised to see a clownfish, as we didn't expect to meet one. The explanations at Pumpkin Hall were easy to understand, and the kids were also very excited about the final dive. They were considerate of the children's pace, allowing us to fully enjoy a day at the sea.

天気にも恵まれとてもラッキーな快晴。
ウミガメにも何匹にも遭遇して家族皆、大興奮でした！！
カクレクマノミに会えると思っていなかったので見られてビックリ！！
パンプキンホールでの説明も分かりやすく、最後の飛び込みダイブに子供達も大興奮。
子供達のペースにも気遣ってもらって、１日海を、とても満喫出来ました。

There is a cave with an entrance in the sea, and since a guide accompanied us to a place we couldn't access on our own, we were able to enjoy the tour safely! They took many photos for us, creating wonderful memories of Miyako Island!

海の中に入り口がある鍾乳洞で、個人では行けないところにガイドさんが着いてくださったので、安全に観光できました！
写真もたくさん撮ってくださり、良い宮古島での思い出になりました！

Since it was a time of year with a lot of rain during the New Year holidays, I was concerned about the weather, but perhaps due to my usual conduct, we were not troubled by rain at all. Overall, I was able to create very enjoyable memories and am writing this experience report wrapped in a pleasant sense of fatigue.

We explored the mangrove wetlands by canoe, and for the first time, I experienced how the canoe could be unexpectedly swept away by strong headwinds. Everyone in the tour passed through safely without capsizing or crashing into the mangrove forest. The jungle trekking was cautious due to unstable footing from the rain the day before, and we proceeded carefully. After about a 25-minute march, we could see the roaring Pinai Sara Falls. The water volume had significantly increased due to the previous day's rain, and as we got closer, we were drenched by the spray, creating a waterfall-like atmosphere. Our guide took some wonderful commemorative photos for us. Originally, we planned to have our lunch at the base of the waterfall, but we changed our plans to eat after returning to the shop, and the warm miso soup provided by the staff was comforting.

Even though I was fully equipped for waterproofing, I ended up soaking wet at Pinai Sara Falls (but this became a good memory), and honestly, I felt like giving up when heading to the caving. Upon entering the cave, the water level had risen to waist-deep due to the previous day's rain, and I had to bend down to keep my face just above the water's surface while moving forward. I worried whether I could finish safely, but I heard that the beginning was the toughest part, so I switched my mindset and continued while admiring the fantastical sights of stalactites and stalagmites. At the final destination, even though it was winter, we were enveloped in the warm, divine light of the tropics, and the fulfilling one-day activity made all my fatigue disappear.

Thank you to our tour guide, Yabu. Not only did you provide explanations about the sightseeing spots along the way, but you also included academic discussions about the characteristics of the flora and fauna and why they have changed into their current forms. I learned about the preciousness of Iriomote Island's nature, which I could never have known from a guidebook, and I was extremely satisfied.

　年末年始の雨が多い時期の参加でしたので天候が懸念されましたが、普段の行いのせいか、雨に見舞われる事もなく全体としては非常に楽しい思い出を作ることができ、心地よい疲労感に包まれ体験記を書いています。
　カヌーでマングローブの湿地帯を探検、向い風が強いタイミングではカヌーが思いのほか流される事を始めて体験しました。ツアー全員が転覆する事もマングローブの林に突撃する事もなく無事通過。
ジャングルトレッキングは前日の雨で足場が不安定で滑るため慎重に歩を進めました。約25分の行軍の先に轟音を立てて流れ落ちるピナイサーラの滝が見えてきました。ここも前日の雨で相当水量が増えており、近づくと水しぶきでびしょ濡れとなり滝行の様相を呈していましたが、ガイドさんに素敵な記念写真を撮ってもらいました。本来は滝つぼでお弁当の予定でしたが、お弁当はショップに戻ってから摂る事に予定変更、スタッフさんが提供くださった温かい味噌汁が身体に染み込みます。
　完全防水のいで立ちで臨んだものの、ピナイサーラの滝でびしょ濡れ（でもこれが良い思い出になりました）になり、正直ケービングに向かうときは心が折れそうになっていました。洞窟に入るといきなり前日の雨の増水で腰の深さまで水嵩が増えており、腰をかがめると顔が水面スレスレまで近づきつつの前進で、無事完走できるか？心配がよぎりましたが、最初が一番の難関と聞き、気持ちを切り替え鍾乳石や石筍等の幻想的な光景を見ながら前進再開です。終着地点では冬とはいえ暖かく射し込む南国神々しい光に包まれ充実した１Dayアクティビティで最後は疲れが吹き飛びました。
　ツアーガイドのヤブさんありがとうございました。道中観光スポットの解説にとどまらず、動植物の特性やなぜこの様な形状に変化したのかと言った学術的なお話も盛り込んで解説頂き、絶対ガイドブックでは知ることができない西表島の自然の尊さを知ることがで大満足です。

I wanted to experience activities on Iriomote Island and also go snorkeling at Barasu Island, so I made a reservation here. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, the activities at Barasu Island were canceled, but I was able to choose between a full-day cancellation, a half-day cancellation, sightseeing, or other activities.

I received the cancellation notice around 1 PM the day before (I was delayed in returning the call due to my own circumstances), but they made the decision early, so I was able to spend my time without worry. Since it was a trip during the New Year holidays, I was informed that restaurants and supermarkets around the meeting point at the port would be closed, and that there might not be any bento available at the supermarket during the New Year. This valuable information allowed me to purchase a bento at a supermarket that was open that day.

We did canyoning in the morning and mangrove canoeing in the afternoon. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, to the point that you wouldn't believe they were a newcomer.

We were able to take a shower after each activity, which warmed us up.

They provide marine shoes, but you will need to return them after arrival and switch to your own footwear, so I think it would be good to have flip-flops or something that can get wet. They took a lot of great photos for us, which were wonderful and ones we couldn't have taken ourselves. (The photos can be sent via LINE.)

There are plenty of other activities available, so I want to go back to Iriomote Island! I would like to request PIPI again! This is a fantastic shop that I can recommend to everyone!

西表島のアクティビティを体験したい、尚且つバラス島でシュノーケリングがしたくてこちらを申し込みました。
結果は天候不良の為、バラス島でのアクティビティは中止になりましたが、1日キャンセルか半日キャンセル、観光、別のアクティビティを選ぶことができました。

中止の連絡は前日の13時頃に連絡があり（こちらの都合で折り返しの連絡は遅くなりました）、早めに判断してくださったので不安なく過ごせました。年末年始の旅行だったので、集合場所の港周辺の飲食店やスーパーが閉まっていること、スーパーでは年始はお弁当は販売していないかも・・という貴重な情報も教えていただけたので、その日のうちに営業しているスーパーでお弁当を購入することができました。

私たちは午前キャニオニング、午後マングローブカヌーでした。
ガイドさんは移住者とは思えないぐらいに知識が豊富な方でした。

アクティビティ毎にシャワーを浴びることができ、体が温まりました。

マリンシューズは貸してもらえますが、到着後返却して自分の履物に履き替えることになるので、濡れてもいいビーサンなどがあるといいと思いました。
写真も沢山撮ってもらえて、自分たちでは撮れない素敵な写真ばかりでした。（写真はLINEに送ってもらえます）

他のアクティビティも豊富なので、また西表島に行きたい！PIPIさんでお願いしたい！みなさんにご紹介できるはなまるなショップさんです。

About a month ago, I participated in a snorkeling and Pumpkin tour for the first time! The weather was bad, and we couldn't go to Pumpkin, but the experience and our guide Yuya were amazing, so I wanted to try again and made another reservation this time!! The wind was very strong, and I thought we might not be able to go again, but finally, we made it to Pumpkin.

The mystical limestone cave was certainly moving, but I was also touched by the fact that it is an important place for the locals and felt the history. Once again, Yuya provided fun, interesting, and thorough explanations.

My husband and I have become fans of Yuya (laughs). Thank you so much!

約1ヶ月前、シュノーケルとパンプキンのツアーで初めて参加しました！
天候が悪くパンプキンにはいけませんでしたが、その時の体験やガイドのゆーやさんが最高だったので、リベンジしたいと思い今回また予約をしてみました！！
風がとても強く、またダメか〜と思いましたが、、とうとうパンプキン。
神秘的な鍾乳洞はもちろん感動しましたが、地元の方の大切な場所であること、歴史を感じ感動しました。今回もゆーやさんが楽しく面白く丁寧に色々説明してくれました^_^

私達夫婦は、ゆーやさんのファンとなりました（笑）
本当にありがとうございました！

Even as beginners in canoeing and trekking, we had a great time. We are very grateful to our guide, Y, who kindly taught us various things and took many photos for us, including our elementary school children. Thank you very much!

カヌーやトレッキング初心者の我々でも楽しめました。
小学生の子供たちにも親切に色々教えて頂いたり、写真をたくさん撮っていただいたガイドのYさんにはとても感謝しております。
ありがとうございました！

I had a great time kayaking since I'm quite skilled at it. I was grateful that I couldn't take pictures myself. As expected, I was on the verge of getting seasick while fishing from the boat. I took motion sickness medication, but it didn't help. It seems that being afloat while not moving is what really bothers me. From now on, I'll focus on shore fishing!

カヤックはお手の物なので楽しめました。自分で画像は撮れないので有り難かったです。船釣りはやはり予想通り酔う寸前でした。酔いどめ飲んだんですがやはりダメでした。動いている時よりプカプカ浮いている状況がダメみたいです。今後は岸釣りに専念します!

In the morning, we went canoeing and trekking, and in the afternoon, we did snorkeling.

Canoeing was relaxing as we could paddle while enjoying the scenery, making it a laid-back experience. During the trekking, listening to the staff's stories made it more enjoyable than tiring. We even saw a snake along the way, which was amusing!

In the afternoon, the weather was perfect for snorkeling, and I was able to see the sea turtles I had always wanted to see! The staff took photos for us, and they shared them later, allowing us to enjoy the experience twice. It created the best memories! ✨

Thank you very much!

午前にカヌーとトレッキング、午後はシュノーケリングの流れでした。

カヌーはのんびりと景色を見ながら漕ぐことが出来て、ゆったり楽しめる感じでした。
トレッキングはスタッフさんの話を聞きながらまわれたこともあり、キツさよりも楽しさの方が大きかったです。
途中でハブがいました笑

午後からのシュノーケリングは天気にも恵まれ、念願のウミガメを見ることが出来ました！
スタッフさんが写真を撮ってくださって、それを後で共有してもらえたので、2度楽しめました。
最高の思い出ができました✨

ありがとうございました！

I received a call the day before, informing me that the ferry to Uehara would likely be canceled, so I was directed to take the bus to Ohara instead. On the day of the tour, that turned out to be the case, and I ended up being the only participant, making it feel like a private tour. We started with a canoe ride down the river, and in the second half, we did some light trekking up to the waterfall. I was moved by the gradient of the sea and sky seen through the waterfall. It was quite windy, so I got soaked from the splashes, but there was also a beautiful rainbow. Since it was almost a private tour, the guide provided thorough explanations, and as someone who loves nature, it was very enriching for me. On the way back, we leisurely canoed, freeing myself from work stress, and it became an unforgettable memory. I may seem unsociable, but I was much more moved than I appear. Thank you to the Monsoon team and Mr. Fujiwara.

前日に電話をいただき、上原行きの船が欠航になるだろうから大原行に乗り、そこからバスへと案内いただいた。当日は、その通りとなり、ツアー参加するが、時期のせいなのか私一人しかおらず、個人ツアー状態となりました。前半はカヌーで川を進み、後半は軽くトレッキングで滝上迄。そこからの滝越しの海と空のグラディエーションに感動。風が強かったので飛沫があたりびしょ濡れでしたが、虹もでて素敵なんですよ。半個人ツアー常態なので、丁寧に説明していただき、自然が好きな自分なので、非常に為になりました。帰りもカヌーでマッタリ進み、仕事のストレスから開放され、忘れられない思い出となりました。私は無愛想なんですが、見た目より数倍感動してますので。モンスーンの方々、藤原さん、ありがとうございました。

I had an amazing time kayaking in the beautiful waters of Okinawa. Even in December, the seawater was pleasantly warm and felt great to touch. My sister was kayaking for the first time, and she was really scared at first, thinking she might drown because of my poor steering. However, the bright and kind instructor taught us patiently, which made her feel safe and allowed us to enjoy the experience.

We opted for the drone filming plan, and they filmed for a longer time than we expected, providing us with a lot of videos. It was a great memory since it was my sister's first trip in three years, and she has been busy with parenting.

The initial reservation date had bad weather, but we were able to change the schedule, and I’m really glad we could finally go kayaking as we had been looking forward to it. Thank you very much!

綺麗な沖縄の海で伸び伸びとシーカヤックができて最高に楽しかったです。（12月でも海水がほんのり温かくて、触ると気持ちよかったです。）
妹ははじめてのカヤックで、私の操作が下手すぎてはじめは溺れてしまうのでは・・ととても怖かったようですが、明るく親切なインストラクターの方が丁寧に教えてくださって安心して楽しめたと言っていました。
ドローン撮影プランにしたのですが、思っていたよりも長い時間撮影いただいて動画をたくさんいただきました。子育てに忙しい妹と3年ぶりの旅行だったので良い記念になりました。
最初の予約日は天候が悪く、日程変更いただくことができ、楽しみにしていたシーカヤックができて本当によかったです。ありがとうございました。

The sea turtle snorkeling allowed us to see beautiful coral reefs and many fish. Thanks to our guide, Yusei, who searched diligently, we were finally able to meet a sea turtle, and we were very satisfied. Thank you for the wonderful photos.

The pumpkin cave tour was also a huge hit with my son. Paddling through the sea and entering the cave through a small entrance was very magical and moving. Our guide, Yuya, was very kind, took many photos for us, and explained everything in detail, making it a fun exploration experience. Thank you very much.

I am glad we could have these unique experiences in Miyako Island. They became great memories.

I look forward to working with you again.

ウミガメシュノーケリングは綺麗な珊瑚礁やお魚をたくさん見ることができました。ウミガメもガイドの優生さんが必死に探してくださったおかげで最後に無事会うことができて大満足です。素敵な写真もありがとうございました。

パンプキン鍾乳洞ツアーも息子が大喜びで、海の中をカヌーで進んで小さな入口から入った洞窟の中はとても幻想的で感動しました。ガイドのユウヤさんもとてもご親切でたくさん写真を撮ってくださったり、色々丁寧にご説明くださり、探検気分を味わえて楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。

どちらも宮古島ならではの体験ができて嬉しく思います。いい思い出になりました。

またよろしくお願いいたします。

I had a very valuable experience canoeing by myself and exploring magnificent waterfalls and limestone caves. Thanks to the instructor who energized the tour, I was able to enjoy it even more. My family and I created another lifelong memory, and I am very satisfied.

カヌーを自ら漕いで荘厳な滝や鍾乳洞を巡ることができ、非常に貴重な経験ができました。
インストラクターさんがツアーを盛り上げてくれたおかげで、さらに楽しむことができました。
家族でまた一つ一生の思い出を作ることができ、非常に満足しています。

I was able to enjoy mangrove kayaking even in the rain! The instructor provided detailed explanations about the mangroves and guided us carefully, allowing us to have a fulfilling experience!

雨でもマングローブカヤックを楽しむ事ができました！
インストラクターの方がマングローブを細かく説明してくれたり、マングローブを丁寧に案内してくれたりして、充実した時間を過ごす事ができました！

I had the opportunity to experience the great nature of Iriomote Island, and the breathtaking view from the top of the waterfall has become an unforgettable memory. I'm really glad I participated in the tour with Kazeura.

From the time I applied for the tour until the day of the event, the guidance was thorough, and being able to use the store made me feel secure about joining the tour. I was able to calmly change and prepare in the organized store, and the shoes and life jackets provided were all well-maintained and clean. The restrooms and shower facilities were also very clean, which left a great impression on me. It was also helpful that they took care of my luggage.

Our guide, Hoshi, was very skilled and made the tour even more enjoyable. As a couple in our 50s who don't usually exercise, we were concerned about our physical stamina to reach the top of the waterfall. However, thanks to Hoshi's attentiveness, we were able to take breaks at appropriate times, making it easy to reach the top. Indulging in Yaeyama soba at the top of the waterfall was not only delicious but also helped replenish our salt levels and recover our energy. The handmade mochi was also exquisite. The view from the top of the waterfall and looking up at the waterfall from the basin felt exceptionally beautiful.

During the canoeing and trekking, we received introductions to the flora and fauna and explanations about Iriomote Island, allowing us to learn about the richness and depth of its nature, which was very educational.

I was delighted to have many photos taken during the tour, allowing me to reflect on the enjoyable experiences. Overall, I had a comfortable and wonderful time.

In the future, when I consider activities on Iriomote Island again, I would like to request Kazeura. I confidently recommend Kazeura to acquaintances and anyone considering tours on Iriomote Island.

西表島の大自然に触れることができ、滝の上からの絶景は決して忘れられない良い思い出になりました。
今回、風車さんのツアーに参加して本当によかったです。

ツアー申し込み時点から当日まで丁寧な案内があり、店舗を利用させていただけることで安心してツアーに参加することができました。
整頓された店舗で落ち着いて着替えなどの準備をすることができ、貸していただいた靴やライフジャケット他はどれも手入れされていてきれいで、トイレやシャワー室もとても清潔で大変好感を持ちました。
荷物を預かっていただけたのも助かりました。

ガイドの星さんはとても優秀な方で、ツアーを一層楽しいものにしてくださいました。
日頃、運動などしていない50歳代夫婦での参加で、滝の上まで行くことに体力面で不安がありました。
しかし星さんの気配りのおかげで、適切なタイミングで休憩を取ってくださったこともあり、苦も無く滝の上まで行くことができました。
贅沢にも滝の上で八重山そばを作っていただき、美味しいうえに塩分補給ができて体力回復になりましたし、手作りのムーチーもまた絶品。
自ら登ってきた滝上からの景色や滝つぼから見上げる滝には格別な美しさを感じました。

カヌーでの移動やトレッキング中に動植物の紹介や西表島の説明があり、西表島の豊かな自然の奥深さを知ることができ、とても勉強になりました。

ツアー中に多くの写真を撮っていただき、楽しかった体験を振り返ることができて嬉しいかぎりです。
徹頭徹尾、快適で素晴らしい時間を過ごしことができました。

今後また西表島に行き、アクティビティを検討する際には風車さんにお願いしたいと思っております。
知人にはもちろんのこと、これから西表島でのツアーを検討される方々に信頼できる風車さんを自信を持って推薦します。

Thank you for guiding us on the trekking tour this time!

This was my first experience with canoeing, and I was quite anxious about my physical strength since we were climbing up to a waterfall at a very high altitude. I was also worried about getting injured. However, before we set off, you reassured me with comforting words, and on-site, you explained the canoeing techniques in a way that was easy for beginners to understand. You also provided detailed instructions on where to place my hands and feet during the trekking, which allowed me to truly enjoy the experience!

The canoeing experience in the great outdoors was incredibly soothing, and I had a wonderful time. The breathtaking view from the top of the waterfall is something I will never forget! The casual conversations during canoeing and trekking were also a lot of fun, creating the best memories!

I would love to visit Iriomote Island again. Thank you very much!

今回はトレッキングツアーのガイドをしていただき、ありがとうございました！
私はカヌーは人生初で、トレッキングもとても高いところにある滝の上まで登っていくということで体力に自信もなく、また怪我しないか、など不安な部分は沢山ありました。しかし出発前に大丈夫と安心できる言葉をかけていただき、また現地では初心者にもわかりやすくカヌーの漕ぎ方や、トレッキングでは手や足をかける場所まで詳しく教えていただき、とっても楽しむことができました！
大自然の中のカヌー体験は心癒され、素敵な時間を過ごせました。滝の上からの絶景は二度と忘れません！カヌー、トレッキング中の雑談もとても楽しく、最高な思い出ができました！
また西表島に行きたいと思います。
ありがとうございました！

It had been since Kerama that I went snorkeling. I arrived very early at the meeting point that was sent to me the day before, but the tour guide, Yuya, was already there waiting. From the start, he had a really cute smile and was easy to talk to, which left a great impression. He said, "The chance of seeing a sea turtle is about 30%," and just a few seconds after entering the water, he pointed down and exclaimed, "There it is! A sea turtle!"... Haha, where did that 30% go? I might have the same luck again, but I was able to see another sea turtle and even witness it coming up for air, so I didn't feel the difficulty of encountering one at all. I highly recommend Yuya. You can see sea turtles right away! He also took us to many fish spots, and he was really interesting to talk to; it was truly the best experience. The water was warm once you got in, but it was really cold when you got out. There was a hot spring nearby, so I went there right away to warm up. It was a very enjoyable tour. Thank you, Yuya. It was amazing!

シュノーケルは慶良間以来でした。
前日に送られてきた待ち合わせ場所には、すごく早く着いてしまってたんですが、ツアーガイドのユーヤさんはもう着いてまっててくれていました。最初から、すごく笑顔が可愛くて、喋りやすいとてもいい印象でした。「海亀みれる確率は30%くらいなんですよー、と言いながら海に入ってものの数秒で下を指差し、海亀です！いましたー！って…笑笑30%はどこにいったのやら、そのあとも同じかもしれませんがまた海亀に会うことができ、息継ぎも見ることができ、海亀に出会う難しさを感じることはなかったです。
ユーヤさんオススメです。すぐ海亀あえますね！
あとはたくさん魚のスポットへつれていってくれたりとお話しも面白いし、本当に最高でした。
海は入ってしまえばあったかいのに出たらむっちゃ寒かったです。ちかくに温泉があったのですぐ行ってぬくもりました。とても楽しいツアーでした。ユーヤくん、ありがとう。最高でした

I went canoeing, explored a limestone cave, and went snorkeling! I participated in the tour in mid-November, and the weather was great that day; it was even hot while canoeing! The Pumpkin Cave was larger and more mysterious than I had imagined, and it was truly amazing! It was quite cold inside the cave, though! During snorkeling, I even encountered a sea turtle! Even if I hadn't seen one, I would have been satisfied because the sea was so beautiful and clear, with plenty of fish! Thanks to our guide Yuya, I had a really fun day, and I truly felt that booking this tour was a great decision! I want to go again!!!

カヌー、鍾乳洞探検、シュノーケルをしました！11/中旬にツアーに参加しましたが当日は天気も良くてカヌーしてる間は暑いくらいでした！
パンプキン鍾乳洞は想像してたよりも広くて神秘的で、本当に凄かったです！鍾乳洞内は結構寒かったです、、！
シュノーケルではウミガメにも出会えました！出会えなくても満足できるくらい海が綺麗で透き通ってて魚もいっぱいです！
今回ガイドしてくれたゆうやさんのお陰で1日本当に楽しくてここのツアーを予約してよかったなって心から思えました！また行きたいです！！！

Due to the weather, there were changes in the schedule, but I received polite phone support and explanations. Thanks to that, I was able to enjoy a wonderful activity in great weather.
Thank you to Yusei, who provided support and took photos on the day! It was a lot of fun, and the photos turned out great! It became a wonderful memory of my trip.
I will definitely participate in the tour again when I come back to Miyako Island!

天候の影響で時間帯など変更となりましたが丁寧な電話対応、説明をいただきました。おかげさまで良い天候の中、素晴らしいアクティビティを堪能することが出来ました。
当日サポートや写真撮影をしてくださった優生さんありがとうございました！とても楽しかったし写真も良きでした！旅の良い思い出となりました。
また宮古島に来た際にはツアーに参加させていただきます！

I participated on December 4th. Even though it was December, it felt like midsummer! I joined without a wetsuit.

In the morning, we visited the Pumpkin Cave! It was an exciting place filled with a very solemn atmosphere. I understand why it's called a power spot. Additionally, the tour guide was fun and easy to understand, teaching us various things! It seemed like there were many participants that day, so we had two tour guides with us. I haven't had many experiences with group tours in the past, but I thought this was also enjoyable. Since it had just rained, there was a beautiful rainbow in front of the cave!

We had lunch individually and gathered in the afternoon for snorkeling! Oh, the beauty of the sea! And we even encountered sea turtles twice! They were so cute!

Throughout the day, I truly had a fun and happy time! The guides were very kind, and in addition to their entertaining talks, they also shared great dining spots and scenic views. I want to participate again! 😊

12月4日参加。この日は12月なのに真夏日！！ウェットスーツなしで参加。
午前中はパンプキン鍾乳洞！！
ワクワクする場所であり、とても厳かな雰囲気に満ちておりました。パワースポットといわれる所以が分かります。それに加えて、ツアーガイドの方が楽しく分かりやすく、色々なことを教えてくださります！！参加した日は人数が多かったようで、２名のツアーガイドさんがついてくれました。過去複数人でのツアー体験はすくなかったのですが、これもまた楽しいものだな、と思いました(^^)この日は雨上がりということで、洞窟前に綺麗な虹もでていました！！

お昼各自でとりまして、午後集合。
シュノーケリング！！まぁ、海の綺麗さ！！そして、なんとウミガメさんとも2回も遭遇出来ました♡
本当可愛いかったです！！！！

1日を通して、本当に本当に楽しく幸せな時間を過ごせました♡
ガイドさんもとても親切で、楽しいトークに加え、美味しいお食事処や絶景スポット等も教えてくださりました。また参加したいです☺️！！！

Our guide, S, was very kind, and we were able to enjoy the experience even with our small children. He always answered the children's simple questions, making it a wonderful experience. I would definitely like to request the same guide next time.

ガイドのSさんが、とても親切で小さな子供連れの私達でも楽しむことができました。
子供たちの素朴な疑問にも常に答えてくれ、とてもいい経験となりました。
次回もぜひ 同じガイドさんにお願いしたいと思いました。

It was disappointing that we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to the rough waves, but we went snorkeling in a different location and were thrilled to see such beautiful fish. The guide was friendly and made the experience enjoyable. The mangrove kayaking was also relaxing, with the gentle flow of the river and the scenery being very soothing.

波が荒れていて青の洞窟に行けなくて残念でしたが、違う場所でシュノーケリングをしましたが、とても綺麗な魚達が見れて感激しました。
ガイドのお姉さんも気さくな方で楽しめました。
マングローブのカヤックも穏やかな川の流れと景色に癒やされました。

I participated in a one-day course that included a pumpkin cave experience, snorkeling, and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). During the cave experience, as soon as I swam in from the entrance, I found a spot that looked just like a pumpkin. Climbing up from there and going further in, I was greeted by a truly mystical sight. At the end, there was also a jump from the top of the pumpkin, which was exciting. In the afternoon, while snorkeling, I quickly encountered a sea turtle! After swimming together for a while, we went to see Nemo next. He was so cute. Finally, I enjoyed a relaxing time paddleboarding. The breeze felt nice, and I had a very peaceful time. I was also able to take a lot of photos, which was great. Thank you very much.

パンプキン鍾乳洞体験とシュノーケリング、supの1日コースに参加しました。鍾乳洞体験では、入り口から泳いで入るとすぐパンプキンそっくりの場所があります。そこをよじ登ってさらに奥に行くと、とても神秘的な光景が広がっていました。最後にパンプキンの上からの飛び込みもあり、ワクワクしました。午後はシュノーケルで、割とすぐにウミガメに会いました！しばらく一緒に泳いだあと、今度はニモに会いに行きました。とても可愛かったです。最後はゆったりとsupを楽しみました。風が気持ちよくて、とっても穏やかな時間を過ごせました。たくさん写真も撮っていただけて、良かったです。ありがとうございました。

The wind was strong, and there was rain in the forecast...
We ended up just snorkeling without the pumpkin.
But that's okay!
I heard there was only a 30% chance of seeing a sea turtle.
We entered the water feeling lucky if we spotted one.
The beautiful fish and various shapes of coral were already breathtaking.
We found Nemo and took a commemorative photo. So cute! I was glad I didn't cancel.
Then we encountered a sea turtle while it was eating.
We swam together for a bit, took more photos, and I got to see it come up for air, which was incredibly moving as it swam away...
Thank you. My first time in Miyako Island.
Thank you. The sea, the fish, and the little sea turtle.
Thank you. Yuya.

It became an unforgettable time.
Yuya was truly the best!
Thank you for the fun time! ^_^

風が強く、雨予報、、、
パンプキンはなしで、シュノーケルだけになりました。
でもそれはしょーがないので全然OK！
ウミガメに会えるのは30%とのこと。
会えたらラッキーな感じで海に入りました。
綺麗な魚たち、色んな形のサンゴ、それだけで感動。
ニモを見つけてくれて、記念撮影。可愛すぎ、、。キャンセルしないで良かったーと思っていたら。
『いました！』とウミガメの食事中に遭遇。
少し一緒に泳いで、記念撮影もして、海面に顔を出して呼吸する姿も見られて、去っていく後ろ姿に超感動、、、。
ありがとう。初宮古島。
ありがとう。海、魚たち、ウミガメちゃん。
ありがとう。ゆーやさん。

忘れられない時間となりました。
ゆーやさんが本当にサイコー！
楽しい時間をありがとうございました^_^

At first, we were a bit flustered, but we gradually got used to it. The weather was absolutely fantastic, with the blue sky and the ocean shining in Miyako Blue, and we even got to see sea turtles! The Pumpkin Hall tour also sparked our sense of adventure and was a lot of fun. It became a wonderful memory, thank you!

最初はおろおろだった私達も次第に慣れ、なんと言っても凄く天気が良く、空の青さに海も宮古ブルーに輝いて海ガメにも会えました❗
パンプキンホールツアーも冒険心をかきたてられ楽しかったです。
良い思い出になりました、ありがとうございました❗

I participated in fishing from a kayak. The guide, Ami, was very kind and taught us about the types of trees and their history, which made the experience much more enjoyable than just riding normally. We caught about 20 fish, and after getting off the kayak, we took the fish to an izakaya she recommended, where they prepared sashimi, fried fish, and oil sautéed dishes for us. We enjoyed them deliciously with sake and were very satisfied!

カヤックからの釣りに参加しました。
カヤックでは、案内してくださった亜美さんがとても親切で^ ^木の種類や歴史などを教えてくれて、普通に乗るより数段楽しめました(^-^)
釣りも20匹ほど釣れて、降りてから紹介してくれた居酒屋に釣れた魚を持っていき　刺身や揚げ魚　オイルソテーにしてくれて・・日本酒と美味しくいただき大満足でした(^O^)

We experienced kayaking for the first time as a couple! The guide was very kind and taught us a lot, and she also took many photos for us! The mangroves were incredibly mysterious, and I was thrilled to learn about the ecology and names of the plants. The Blue Cave was canceled due to weather conditions, but we still had so much fun kayaking! Additionally, she recommended a great yakiniku restaurant in Ishigaki, so we had yakiniku for dinner! We spent the whole day feeling happy. I definitely want to join this tour again when I come back to Ishigaki!

初めてのカヤックを夫婦で体験しました！
ガイドのお姉さんが優しく教えてくださり、写真もたくさん撮ってくださりました！
マングローブはとても神秘的で、植物の生態や名前などいろいろ教えていただき感激しました。
青の洞窟は天候の関係でキャンセルになりましたがカヤックだけでもとっても楽しかったです！
また、石垣島のお勧め焼肉屋さんも教えてくださり晩御飯は焼肉！一日中幸せな気分で過ごせました☆
また石垣島に来る際はもう一度このツアーに絶対参加したいです！！

It was my first time participating, and I was very satisfied! The exploration of Pumpkin Head and snorkeling with the sea turtles were even more fun than I imagined.

The guide was flexible and really made the experience enjoyable, and they took a lot of great photos, so I have wonderful memories! I am truly grateful.

初めての参加でしたが、大満足でした！
パンプキンヘッドの探検も、海亀とのシュノーケリングも想像以上で楽しかったです。

ガイドの方も臨機応変に盛り上げて下さり、
また写真を沢山撮ってくれるので、
良い思い出が出来ました！
本当に感謝しています。

I participated in a tour where we went snorkeling in the morning and mangrove canoeing in the afternoon. During the tour, the guide kept the atmosphere lively and took many photos for us.

午前はシュノーケル、午後はマングローブカヌーをするツアーに参加しました。ツアー参加中にガイドの方が盛り上げてくれたり、たくさん写真を撮ってくれました。
