All Reviews for Okinawa SUP (Stand Up Paddleboard)

I went on a one-day course with a friend! We did stand-up paddleboarding in the morning and snorkeling in the afternoon. Both of us were almost beginners, but we had no problems and enjoyed ourselves. The rainy season had just ended, and we were blessed with great weather, so we were satisfied with all the photos we took! We also got to see sea turtles up close for the first time, and the excitement of seeing them so near was incredible. We even saw Nemo, which made us feel so happy. The staff provided thorough instructions, so we were able to enjoy the experience without any anxiety, even as beginners. Thank you very much!

1日コースを友達と2人で行きました！！
午前中サップで、午後からはシュノーケルでした。
2人ともほぼ初心者で行きましたが、問題なく楽しめました。ちょうど梅雨明けもして天気に恵まれ、たくさん写真を撮ってもらって満足です！！
ウミガメにもしっかり会えました。
初めてウミガメをみて、こんなに近くでみれるんだ！！と言う感動が凄かったです。ニモも見れました。幸せな気持ちになりました。
スタッフさんは丁寧にレクチャーしていただき、初めてでも不安感なく楽しめたので良かったです。
ありがとうございました。

First of all, it was simply fun! It was a time when big adults turned back into children, and the time flew by. Our guide, Matt-chan, was also a very nice person who patiently taught us and kept the atmosphere lively, even for us in our 50s. We learned a lot about the nature, animals, and flowers of Iriomote Island. I could really feel that Matt-chan loves Iriomote Island too. This was my second time with Pipi, and I heard everyone saying, "Work is fun, and the team is wonderful," which made me feel that it's a good company. I'm planning another trip to Iriomote Island in August, so I would like to rely on you again. By the way, it might be better to avoid wearing shorts for canyoning in the summer. It seems like wearing innerwear or leggings would be a better choice!

まずは楽しかったの一言に尽きます！
大の大人が子供に還った時間であっという間の時間でした。担当のまっちゃんさんもとても良い方で50代の私達にも丁寧に教えて頂き盛り上げてくれてました。西表島の自然や動物、花etc色々教えて頂いて。まっちゃんさんも西表島が大好きなんだなぁと感じました。pipiさんは今回2度目なのですが担当の方皆さん『仕事が楽しい、仲間が素晴らしい』と話してるのを聞いて良い会社何だろうなぁとも感じましたね。
又8月に西表島旅行を計画してるのでお世話になりたいです。
因みにキャニオニングは夏だからと半パン…は避けた方が良いかも。インナーやレギンスを履いた方が良さそうですね！

I participated in the snorkeling and cave exploration plan, and it was so much fun! I was worried about whether I would really enjoy it since I’m not confident in my physical abilities, but I was overwhelmed by the beauty of the cave and the sea, and I forgot all my worries and had a great time! The guide was very attentive, which made me feel very comfortable participating.

シュノーケルと鍾乳洞探検のプランに参加しましたが、とても楽しかったです！
運動に自信がなく、本当に楽しめるのか不安でしたが、鍾乳洞と海の綺麗さに圧倒されそんなことも忘れて楽しめました！
ガイドさんが丁寧だったのもとても安心して参加できました。

I heard there is a pumpkin-shaped cave in Miyako Island, so I decided to participate, and it completely changed my concept of caves. There is a large pumpkin right at the entrance, and you climb up from there to go deeper inside. It was very mystical from start to finish, and I was able to enjoy it! I also had a great time snorkeling and encountered many sea turtles. The guide was very attentive, and I had a lot of fun.

宮古島でカボチャの形をした鍾乳洞があると聞いて参加してみましたが、鍾乳洞の概念が覆りました。
入り口にすぐ大きなカボチャがあり、そこを登って奥に進んでいくのですが、最初から最後までとても神秘的であり、頼むことができました！
シュノーケリングでもたくさんの海がめに出会うことができたのでよかった！
ガイドさんも丁寧でとても楽しめました。

As a conclusion to my 3-night, 4-day trip to Ishigaki Island and Taketomi Island, I participated in this activity. Since it was a no-plan trip, I made a last-minute reservation the night before, but I was able to communicate smoothly with the staff and join the tour in the morning!

I saw many plants and animals living in the mangroves, felt the great nature, and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was especially lucky to see a rare migratory bird, which became a wonderful memory!

The morning plan lasts about 2 hours in total, so I was scheduled to return on an afternoon flight, but I made it to the airport just fine. Therefore, it's recommended for when you have a little free time!

I had a strong image of Ishigaki Island being all about the sea, but I was able to discover new attractions. Thank you very much!

3泊4日の石垣島・竹富島旅行の締めくくりとして参加させていただきました。
ノープラン旅であったため、前日夜に急遽予約させていただいたのですが、スタッフの方とスムーズに連絡取ることができ、朝から参加することができました！

マングローブの中に生きる動植物をたくさん見て、大自然を感じることができ、満喫させていただきました。
特に希少な渡り鳥も運良く見れ、いい思い出にならました！！

午前プランだと全体で2時間くらいになるので、
午後の便で帰る予定でしたが空港もばっちり間に合いました。
なので、少し時間が空いた時にオススメです！

石垣島は海のイメージが強かったですが、
新たな魅力を感じることができました。
ありがとうございました！！

It was my first time snorkeling‼️ I'm not very good at swimming, but the guide helped a lot with safety, so even as a beginner, I had a great time snorkeling. The guide also found a sea turtle for us, and we were able to see it up close; it was so cute‼️ I saw many other fish as well, and I learned a lot about Miyako Island‼️ It was a huge success. They also introduced us to a local izakaya for dinner. When I come back to Miyako Island, I would love to have the same guide again‼️

初めてのシュノーケルでした‼️
泳ぎは得意では無いですが、ガイドさんが安全面でかなり助けてくれて初心者の私でも楽しいシュノーケルができました
海亀もガイドさんが見つけてくれてかなり近くで見れてとても可愛かったです‼️
他の魚もたくさん見れて、宮古島の知識もたくさん増えました‼️大当たりです
夜の居酒屋も紹介してくれました
また、宮古島に来た時は同じガイドさんがいいです‼️
　

I was able to refresh myself while being healed by nature and getting a good workout. I dove into the river and then floated around, which was very soothing. Our guide, Mol-chan, provided excellent guidance along the way, and I was able to enjoy the experience without any injuries! I was also very lucky to encounter some rare animals on Iriomote Island. Mol-chan taught us various things about the creatures, making it a curious and enjoyable tour that brought back my childhood spirit. I felt the negative ions from the nature of Iriomote Island, which was very healing. Thank you very much!

大自然に癒されながら、しっかり体も動かしてとってもリフレッシュできました〜
川にダイブして、その後ぷかぷかと浮いてとても癒されました✨道中はガイドのモルちゃんがしっかりと案内してくれて、怪我もなく楽しめました！
道中に西表島の珍しい動物にも遭遇できたり、とてもラッキーでした✌️
生き物のこともモルちゃんが色々と教えてくれて、好奇心湧くツアーになり童心に帰れ楽しかったです︎︎✨西表島の自然に触れてマイナスイオンも感じとても癒されました！ありがとうございました✨

This was my first time participating in a snorkeling tour. It was my second visit to Miyako Island, but during my last trip, it was typhoon season, and it rained heavily, making it difficult to even enter the sea. This time, although it was the rainy season, the weather was wonderfully clear with no rain! After arriving at the beach, I put on my snorkeling set, marine shoes, and fins, and entered the water. Instructors T and A guided us, providing thorough explanations and checks multiple times, which made me feel safe while swimming. The water was very clear, and there were beautiful coral reefs with many colorful fish to see. ✨✨ And right after I started swimming, a turtle appeared! Being able to swim close to a wild turtle was such a joy. Thank you for the wonderful photos and unforgettable memories.

　今回初めてシュノーケルツアーというものに参加をさせていただきました。宮古島へ行くのは2回目でしたが、前回は台風の季節ということもあり、すべて大雨で海へ入ることさえ難しかったです今回は梅雨の時期でしたが、見事に雨は降らず良い天気でした！ビーチに到着してからシュノーケルセットとマリンシューズとフィンをつけて海に入りました。インストラクターのTさんとAさんに案内していただきましたが、丁寧なご説明や確認を何度もしてくださり、安心して泳ぐことができました。海の中は透明度が高く、サンゴ礁も広がっていて色鮮やかな魚たちをたくさん見れました。✨✨そしてなんと泳ぎ初めてすぐに亀さんが登場しました。間近で野生の亀さんと泳げるなんて、、幸せです。素敵な写真と一生ものの思い出をありがとうございました。

The cave exploration at the Pumpkin Cave was thrilling and a lot of fun. I was able to take many photos with sea turtles while snorkeling, creating the best memories. Shintaro and the staff were very entertaining. If I have the chance to come back to Miyako Island, I look forward to it.

パンプキン鍾乳洞での洞窟探検はスリルもあり、
とても楽しかったです。
シュノーケルでは念願のウミガメとの写真もたく
さん撮っていただき最高の思い出が出来ました。
SHINTAROさんをはじめスタッフの皆さんが
とても楽しませてくれました。
また宮古島に来ることがありましたら、よろしく
お願いします。

I traveled to Miyako Island with the intention of enjoying the ocean. I thought it would be better to join a tour that could introduce me to beautiful spots rather than going to the sea on my own!

At Shigira Beach, I finally got to see a sea turtle, and I encountered colorful fish, coral, and even a clownfish. It ended way too quickly! It was definitely the right choice to have someone knowledgeable guide us!

I could really feel the guide's professionalism, and I had a great time throughout the tour!!! The photos we received after the tour were beautifully taken and became wonderful memories! Thank you very much!

海を目当てに宮古島に旅行にきました。
個人で海にいくよりも綺麗なポイントを紹介してもらった方が良いなと思いツアーに参加しました！

シギラビーチで、念願のウミガメにも会え、色とりどりのお魚、珊瑚、カクレクマノミまで出会えてあっと言う間に終わってしまいました
詳しい人に案内してもらって正解でした！

ガイドさんのプロ意識がとても感じられ、終始楽しかったです！！！
ツアー終了後にもらった写真も綺麗に写っていてとても素敵な思い出になりました！
ありがとうございました！

I was scheduled to participate in a day tour to the Phantom Island and SUP, but due to strong winds, the Phantom Island tour was canceled, and the SUP was changed to a canoe for a half-day tour. However, paddling against the wind was quite a laborious task even in a canoe. When we couldn't make any progress, we had to pull the canoe through the water or the tour guide helped push the canoe, and we somehow reached our destination! After a short break, I thought it would be easy to return since the wind was against us, but we struggled to go in the direction we wanted and unexpectedly capsized the canoe, getting completely soaked. However, the sea was beautiful and the water was shallow, so it was no problem at all, and it turned out to be an incredibly memorable tour. I had a hard time keeping up with everyone, and I required quite a bit of assistance, but thanks to that, I was able to have a great time. Thank you!

幻の島とsupの1日ツアーに参加予定でしたが強風のため、幻の島は欠航でsupはカヌーに変更して半日のツアーに参加しました。
しかし強風のため、風上に向かって漕ぐのはカヌーでもなかなかの重労働。どうしても進めない時は海の中をカヌーを引っ張って歩いたり、ツアーのお姉さんがカヌーを押してくれたりして何とか目的の場所まで到達！しばしの休憩を経て、帰りは風が逆なので楽に戻れるかと思いきや、思う方向にはなかなか進めず、まさかのカヌーで横転し全身びしょ濡れに。でも、海はキレイだし水深は浅いので全く問題はなく、もの凄く思い出に残るツアーになりました。私はなかなかみんなの流れについて行く事が出来ず、ずいぶんとお世話をかけましたが、お陰様で楽しく過ごす事が出来ました。ありがとうございます！

On the final day of our 4-night, 5-day trip to Taketomi Island and Ishigaki Island, despite the weather forecast predicting rain from the morning, we decided to participate in a canoe tour at Kabira Bay, accepting the possibility of rain until our evening flight.

However, we were greeted with good weather and even glimpses of sunshine. The staff, Shin-chan and Gin-chan, arrived at the meeting point with smiles.

In addition to us, a family of four also joined, and perhaps because it was a small group, we received kind and thorough guidance, creating a warm, homey atmosphere that allowed us to enjoy canoeing.

At the canoeing location, we were almost the only ones there, and we spent a peaceful and wonderful time.

We also visited the hamburger shop that Shin-chan recommended, and it was very delicious.

竹富島と石垣島の4泊5日の旅の最終日
朝から雨の天気予報なのに
夕方の飛行機の時間まで
どうしょうかと思案した結果
雨天覚悟で川平湾でカヌーのツアーに参加することにしました。

ところが
晴れ間も覗く良い天気
集合場所にスタッフのしんちゃんと銀ちゃんが
笑顔で現れました。

僕たち夫婦以外に
4人家族も参加で
少人数なのもあってか
親切丁寧に指導して頂き
何だかアットホームな雰囲気で
カヌーを楽しめました。

体験カヌーの場所には
ほぼ我々のみで
穏やかで素敵な時間を過ごせました。

スタッフのしんちゃんがお勧めと言ってた
ハンバーガー屋さんにも行きましたが
とても美味しかったです。

I participated in a tour that included the Pumpkin Cave and sea kayaking, along with a choice of activities. Exploring the cave was mystical, and I enjoyed traveling by canoe. The snorkeling experience, especially swimming with sea turtles, was truly moving. The guide was kind, and safety measures were thorough. I highly recommend this tour for experiencing the natural beauty of Miyako Island!

パンプキン鍾乳洞＆シーカヤック＋選べるアクティビティのツアーに参加しました。
鍾乳洞の探検は神秘的で、カヌーでの移動も楽しめました。
特にウミガメと一緒に泳ぐシュノーケリング体験は感動的でした。
ガイドさんも親切で、安全対策も万全。
宮古島の自然を堪能できるこのツアーは本当におすすめです！

I used pipi for the first time.

I made a last-minute reservation the night before, but the service was great and I had a very enjoyable time.

I even ran into other participants after the activity, and we chatted about our recommendations, which I think was thanks to the guide's excellent communication skills.

Additionally, the guide recommended some great restaurants and beaches during the tour, which added extra enjoyment beyond just the tour itself.

I would like to use this service again when I visit Iriomote Island next time.

初めてpipiさんを利用させて頂きました。

前日の夜に急遽予約をしたのですが対応が良くとても楽しい時間でした。

他の参加者とも、アクティビティー後に偶然にお会いする事があり、お互い何処がオススメだったか立ち話しする程だったので、ガイドさんのコミュ力のおかげだと思います。

又、ツアー中のオススメのご飯屋さんやビーチを教えて頂き ツアー中だけでなく＋αで楽しめました。

次回も、西表島に行く際は利用したいと思います。

I had been to Miyako Island before, but this was my first time participating in an activity tour. The Pumpkin Cave was more fun than I imagined, and it's an experience you can only have in Miyako Island, so I definitely recommend going! The cave was smaller than I expected, but it was packed with activities like canoeing, diving from the cave, and exploring inside the cave. I even got to see a sea turtle, which became the highlight of this trip. Above all, the guide was a really fun and cool person. Thank you for taking so many photos!

宮古島は以前行ったことがあったのですが、初めてアクティビティツアーに参加しました。パンプキン鍾乳洞は想像以上に楽しくて宮古島でしかできない体験なので、ぜひ行ってほしいです！鍾乳洞内は思ったより小さかったですが、カヌーや鍾乳洞からのダイブ、洞窟内探検など盛り沢山でした♪ウミガメにも会えて、この旅のハイライトになりました。何よりガイドさんがとても楽しい人でかっこよかったです。写真もたくさん撮っていただきありがとうございました！！

I participated in a half-day snorkeling and SUP tour. It was my first time on a SUP, but they taught me carefully, and I had a great time! The guide, Kacchan, shared various interesting tidbits, which my mother, who joined me, also enjoyed! Thank you very much!

After that, we moved on to snorkeling, and we were blessed with a beautiful sea and great weather. I had a truly precious experience as I encountered a sea turtle right after entering the water! Nao, who guided us during snorkeling, dove a lot to take photos, and I was really happy to have memories captured underwater!

I'm really glad I participated this time! When I come to Miyako Island again, I definitely plan to join another activity here!

半日のシュノーケルとsupのツアーに参加させて頂きました。
初めてのsupでしたが丁寧に教えてくださりとても楽しめました！ガイドさんのかっちゃんさんの色々な豆知識なども面白く、一緒に行った母も喜んでおりました！ありがとうございました！
そこから移動してシュノーケルでしたが、そちらも最高な綺麗な海と天気に恵まれ、海に入ってすぐに海亀にも出会えて本当に貴重な体験ができました！
シュノーケルを案内してくれたなおさんがたくさん海に潜って写真を撮ってくださり、海の中での思い出も残せて本当に嬉しかったです！
今回参加して本当によかったです！宮古島にきたら必ずこちらでまたアクティビティに参加しようと思います！！

I booked a plan that included sea turtles. It was a memorable experience to encounter sea turtles in the waters of Miyako Island and swim close to them. Even as a snorkeling beginner who isn't a great swimmer, I felt safe and enjoyed it thanks to the instructor! The Pumpkin Cave was also unique and interesting, definitely worth a visit! I would love to repeat this experience when I come back to Miyako Island. Thank you very much!

ウミガメとセットのプランで予約しました。
宮古島の海でウミガメにあえて、近い距離で泳げたのも催行の思い出になりましたし、シュノーケリング初心者で泳ぎが上手じゃない私でもインストラクターさんのおかげで安心して楽しめました★
パンプキン鍾乳洞も独特で面白くて行く価値ありです！！
また、宮古島に来た際はりぴーとしたいと思います。ありがとうございました！！

Before the sun rises, they pick you up by car and take you to the starting point. This time, there were many clouds and strong winds, so unfortunately, we couldn't see the sunrise. However, our guide was persistent until the last moment and even took us on a mangrove tour at the end. The SUP itself is fun, and they guide you in a way that you can enjoy it regardless of the weather, so I highly recommend it. I thought I would only be able to take a few photos since we couldn't bring our belongings, but the guide took nearly 70 photos, and I was very satisfied afterward. On the way back, they drop you off at the hotel around 7 AM. I want to try again next time I come to Ishigaki to hopefully see the sunrise.

日が昇る前の暗い中、車で迎えにきてくれて、スタート地点まで連れて行ってくれます。
今回は雲が多く風も強かったので、残念ながら日の出を見ることはできなかったです。
ただ、ガイドさんがギリギリまで粘ってくれた上に、最後の時間にマングローブ側のツアーをしてくれました。SUP自体も楽しいですし、天候に関わらず楽しめるように案内してくれるのでおすすめです。
手荷物が持っていけないので写真は数枚かなと思っていたらガイドさんが70枚近く撮ってくれて、終わった後も大満足でした。
帰りは7時くらいにホテルまで送ってもらえます。
また石垣来た時はサンライズが見られるようにまた挑戦したいです。

This was my first visit to Miyako Island, and I decided to join a tour.

It was so much fun!

We took a canoe from Peach and headed to the Pumpkin Cave, which can only be accessed from the sea. Once inside, it was truly a Pumpkin Cave!

Thanks to our guide's enjoyable and attentive support, we were able to have a safe and fun experience!

The sea was, of course, beautiful, and it turned out to be the perfect day that healed my soul!

Thank you to our guide! I will definitely come back to Miyako Island!

今回初めて宮古島を訪れ、せっかくならツアーに参加しようと思いこちらを選びました。

とにかく楽しかったです！

ピーチからカヌーに乗り、海の中からしか入ることができないパンプキン鍾乳洞というところまで向かいました。入るとわかるのですが、まさしくパンプキン鍾乳洞でした！

ガイドさんの楽しく丁寧なサポートによって安全に楽しめました！

海は言わずもがなで綺麗で心も癒される最高の1日になりました！

担当してくださったガイドさんありがとうございました！また、宮古島へ帰ってきます！

The itinerary was smooth and it was really great. Unfortunately, it was cloudy and we couldn't see the stars we were hoping for, but other than that, we got to see various creatures and enjoyed canoeing in the dark, which was really nice. I think it would have been even better if everyone could have turned off their lights for some effects. This time we did the night canoe, but I heard there is also a sunset canoe, so I definitely want to try that next time. The tour guide was bright and fun, which made the experience very relaxing. Thank you!

行程もスムーズですごくよかったです。
あいにく曇りで目的の星空は見えなかったけど、
それ以外はいろんな生き物見れたり、暗闇の中のカヌーだったりですごくよかったです。
できれば全員が電気を消して等の演出があればなおよかったかなと思います。
今回はナイトカヌーでしたが、サンセットカヌーもあるということなので、次回はぜひサンセットカヌーの方も体験したいと思いました。
ツアーガイドの方、明るく楽しい方で非常に和みました。ありがとうございました

My first night canoe experience.
It was darker than I expected, with a mystical atmosphere and silence, accompanied by the sounds of nature. I was even moved by the mangrove jungle, which felt completely different from during the day.

The explanation on how to paddle was thorough, allowing me to start canoeing without any confusion. I was able to experience fish and other natural creatures through sight, sound, and touch.

I thought it might rain, but it didn't at all, and it cleared up a bit so I could see the stars. I've heard that the weather in Iriomote often turns out better than expected.

It was early June, but there were many bugs, so I recommend bringing insect repellent. Since you might get splashed while paddling and your bottom may get a little wet, I think wearing a swimsuit is better than just clothes that can get wet.
I would love to participate in this tour again. Thank you for the fun experience!

初めてのナイトカヌー体験。
思っていたより真っ暗で、神秘的な雰囲気と静寂さ、その中に響く自然の音。。
昼とは違うマングローブジャングルに感動さえ覚えました。

漕ぎ方の説明も丁寧で、戸惑うことなくカヌーを漕ぎ出すことができました。
魚やその他の自然の生物を、視覚、聴覚、触覚全てで体感できました。

雨が降るかと思ったけど、全く降らず少し晴れて星も見れました。西表の天気はいい方に外れることもよくあるそうです。

6月頭でしたが、虫が多いので虫除けを持って行くことをお勧めします。
漕いでいる時に水がかかったり、お尻が少し濡れることも多々あるので、濡れてもいい服装と言うよりも水着で行くのがベターかと思います。
またぜひこのツアーに参加したいです。
楽しい体験ありがとうございました。

We experienced SUP and canoeing as a family of four. The guide was kind and explained everything, and even though it was our first time, we were able to do it right away. At the snorkeling point, we could see many fish and corals from both the SUP and the canoe, which was a lot of fun.

There are two parking lots. It's best to be careful not to get confused.

家族4人でSUPとカヌーを体験しました。ガイドさんが優しく、説明してくれて、初めてでしたが、すぐにできました。シュノーケルポイントで、SUPとカヌーからでも、沢山の魚とサンゴが見れて楽しかったです。

駐車場が2つあります。間違えないように気をつけたほうが、よいです

I would be happy if the information I share here can be helpful for everyone currently looking at this tour page.

First, for those who are unsure about participating in this tour, I want to emphasize that it is the only tour where you can fully enjoy the top-notch activities of Ishigaki Island by coming, seeing, and experiencing them. We were concerned about the weather, so we made a last-minute reservation the day before.

On the day of the tour, due to the unpredictable weather, we switched to a canoe experience, which turned out to be a fantastic experience. The water was a beautiful color, almost transparent, and as we paddled, we were greeted by rare animals, making it hard to contain our excitement as time flew by.

The staff member who guided us shared many interesting stories about the island along the way, creating a friendly atmosphere that made us laugh a lot.

The sea was calm, and whenever the current picked up, the staff quickly provided support with the boat, so we never felt anxious. They also made sure to give us adequate breaks to avoid exhausting ourselves, and we enjoyed talking while learning about the island's unique features when we were on land.

When taking photos, they were considerate about not showing our faces, which made us feel at ease during the tour.

They provided marine shoes and life jackets, and even prepared water for us to wash off the sand before leaving, making this tour highly recommended for those considering a last-minute participation.

On our way back, we enjoyed the recommended restaurants and local fruits suggested by the staff, which made for a fulfilling day both physically and mentally.

This was my first visit to Ishigaki Island, and I am incredibly excited to have experienced such a special feeling of receiving energy from nature in the midst of a World Heritage site.

I hope everyone reading this review can have a wonderful experience as well.

The guide is extremely entertaining, so be sure to ask about various travel tips!

いまこのツアーページをご覧になってる皆様が参考になったと思うようなお話ができてたら嬉しいです。

まずこのツアーに参加するか迷ってる方にお伝えしたい事は、来て・見て・体感する石垣島の最高級のアクティビティを堪能できる唯一のツアーであるという事です。私たちは天候の心配もあったので前日に飛び込み予約をさせていただきました。

当日は天候不順もありカヌー体験に変更されましたがこれがまた素晴らしい経験をさせてくれました。
カラッと晴れた空に透けて下が見えそうな水の色、漕いでる途中には珍しい動物達に迎えられ興奮した気持ちが抑えられぬまま時間が過ぎて行きました。

ガイドを務めてくださったスタッフさんは道中も含め島の面白い話をたくさんして下さり、和やかな雰囲気も楽しみつつ沢山笑ってしまいました。

海の流れも穏やかで時折波が早く流れる際はスタッフの方がすぐに船のサポートをして下さり不安になる場面が一度もありませんでした。体力が消耗してしまわない様に適度なお休み時間も作っていただき、陸に上がって島の特色に触れながらお話し話聞かせてもらいました。

お写真を撮る際もお顔が映らないようにするか配慮していただき細やかな気遣いをしていただき安心してツアーに参加することができました。

マリンシューズやライフジャケットも貸していただけて、帰り際に砂を落とす為のお水も用意して下さったので飛び込み参加を考えている方にもオススメのツアーです。

帰り際にはスタッフさんにオススメしていただいたご飯屋さんや地元の果物を堪能して心も体も満たされた1日でした。

石垣島を訪れたのは今回が初めてでしたが、世界遺産の真ん中で自然からエネルギーを貰うような特別な感覚を味わえた事にすごく興奮しています。

このレビューを読んでくださった皆様も素晴らしい体験ができますように。

ガイドさんめちゃくちゃ面白い方なので旅行のあれこれ等もぜひ聞いてみて下さい！笑

Unfortunately, we couldn't go to Balas Island due to the weather, but I was very satisfied with the mangrove canoe experience, which felt much longer than just an hour and a half! It was a truly extraordinary experience, and I'm really glad I participated in this tour!

Thank you so much to our tour guide, Hikaru, for delivering my forgotten items to the port at the end! I don't think there are any other tour companies or guides as attentive as this one. I highly recommend them!

I plan to book with this tour company again next time.

残念ながらバラス島へは天候の影響で行くことが出来ず、マングローブカヌーのみの参加になりましたが、１時間半とは思えないくらいの内容で大満足でした！非日常の体験をすることができ、このツアーに参加して本当によかったです！

ツアーガイドのひかるさん、最後に忘れ物を港まで届けてくださり本当にありがとうございました！こんなに手厚いツアー会社さん・ツアーガイドさんは他にはないと思います。皆さんおすすめです！

また次回もこちらのツアー会社さんで予約をしようと思います。

I lead quite an indoor lifestyle, so I was honestly worried about whether I could swim, but the guide provided thorough support for every activity, which really eased my mind. Moreover, they communicated with all the guests without any discrimination.

This plan also includes transportation and photo services, which is a great bonus. In particular, the photos of me swimming with the adorable sea turtles are treasures! I would love to request PiPi again. Thank you!

かなりインドアな生活をしてるので、正直泳げるか自体心配でしたが、どのアクティビティでもガイドさんが丁寧にサポートしてくれて、とても心救われました。しかも、どのお客さんにも分け隔てなくコミュニケーション取っていました。

このプランは、送迎と写真サービスがついているのも嬉しいポイント。特に、可愛いウミガメと泳いでる写真は宝物です！またPiPiさんにお願いしたいと思います。ありがとうございました！

This time, I traveled to Ishigaki Island during the rainy season! I was hoping for at least one good day of weather. I heard that the weather in Ishigaki Island doesn't always match the forecast, so I didn't make any reservations in advance and decided to wait and see which day would be the best to go...

On the last day of the trip, I booked a day tour to the elusive island, snorkeling, and canoeing to experience nature! A lively young man was in charge, and seeing his well-trained body was very reassuring, haha. It turned out that it was his last working day, so we were motivated to have a great time!

The canoeing took place in an area within Ishigaki Island, and I was amazed at how much the scenery changed with just a slight shift from the sea area. It felt like an adventure with mangroves and abundant nature all around, making me feel like I was on an expedition!

As for the elusive island, it was surprisingly sunny, which is rare lately, and the sea was so clear and emerald green that it hardly felt like Japan. I was truly moved! Thank you for a wonderful trip!

今回、梅雨の時期に石垣島へ旅行に！
天気が1日でもいいことを信じて行くつもりでした
石垣島は天気予報通りなことはなかなかないと聞き、事前にプランを予約しては行かず、様子を見て何日目のタイミングで行こうかは検討、、、
旅行最終日に晴れをかけて念願の幻の島と、シュノーケル、自然を体験できるカヌーの1日ツアーを予約！
元気なお兄さんが担当してくださり、鍛え上げられた体をみてとても心強かったです笑
そして、お兄さんがその日たまたま最後の出勤日だったらしく、私達も思いっきり楽しまなければ！と気合いがでました！笑
カヌーは、石垣島内のエリアで行われましたが、海のエリアと場所が少し変わるだけでこんなに変わるのかってくらいアドベンチャーって感じのマングローブといっぱいの自然が前面に広がってて冒険してる気分でした♪
幻の島に関しては、最近の中では珍しいくらい晴れたらしくとても日本とは思えないくらい透明でエメラルドグリーンな海で本当に感動です！
素晴らしい旅行をありがとうございました！

I participated in a half-day tour of SUP and sea turtle snorkeling! During the SUP, I was healed by the natural beauty of the beach, and the guide taught me some fun activities using the board, making for a very enjoyable time.

Although I didn't encounter any sea turtles during the snorkeling, I was satisfied to see beautiful creatures up close, such as coral reefs, tropical fish, and sea anemones. The guides for the SUP and snorkeling were different people, but both were cheerful and easy to talk to, and they paid attention to safety, allowing me to enjoy the activities with peace of mind!

They also took many photos during the activities and provided transportation, so I was able to focus solely on enjoying the activities. I heard that there are affiliated shops in Ishigaki Island and Iriomote Island, so I would love to use their services again there!

SUPとウミガメシュノーケリングの半日ツアーに参加しました！
SUPではビーチの自然に癒されつつ、ガイドさんにボードを使った楽しい遊びも教えてもらい、とても楽しい時間を過ごせました。
ウミガメシュノーケリングでは今回はウミガメには会えませんでしたが、サンゴ礁や熱帯魚、イソギンチャクなどキレイな生き物たちを間近で見ることができて満足できました。
SUPとシュノーケリングのガイドさんはそれぞれ別の方でしたが、お二人とも明るくてお話しやすく、安全にも気を配ってくださり、安心してアクティビティを楽しめました！
アクティビティ中の写真もたくさん撮っていただき、送迎もしていただいたので、自分自身はアクティビティにだけ集中して楽しめてよかったです！
石垣島や西表島にも系列のお店があるそうなので、そちらでもまたお世話になりたいです。

Snorkeling:
- Saw a small sea turtle and many colorful fish
- The tour guide was informative and took some amazing pictures of my partner and me with the fish and sea turtle

Kayaking & caving:
- Paddled along the coast to a waterfall and limestone cave
- Saw some incredible scenery and I was awestruck by the cave

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE TOUR. Well worth the price!

Thank you! ♡

-saw some incredible scenery and I was awestruck by the cave

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE TOUR. Well worth the price!

In June, I participated with my 6th-grade daughter and two adults. Although we couldn't go to the phantom island due to the sea conditions, we enjoyed mangrove SUP. Both instructors were kind and friendly, teaching us about the types of mangroves, how to distinguish them, and how they grow in an easy-to-understand manner, which was very interesting. They took us to mangrove tunnels and cave-like areas, adding a sense of adventure, and both my daughter and we adults had a great time. They took many photos and sent them to us on the same day, creating unforgettable memories.

Additionally, the instructors provided us with recommendations for beaches and restaurants, making our trip to Ishigaki even more enjoyable. I am filled with gratitude.

In this tour, you can choose between kayaking and SUP, but I think SUP is more enjoyable for active people since you can stand or sit and have various ways to enjoy it! I highly recommend participating in the tour.

６月に小学6年生の娘と大人2名で参加させていただきました。
海の影響で幻の島へは行けなかったのですが、マングローブSUPを楽しませていただきました。
インストラクターの方は2人とも優しく親切で、マングローブの種類や見分け方、増え方などを分かりやすく教えて下さり、とても興味深かったです。マングローブのトンネルや洞窟の様なところに連れて行ってもらい、アドベンチャー感もあり、娘はもちろん、私たち大人も楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。
写真もたくさん撮っていただき、その日のうちに送っていただき、忘れられない思い出になりました。
さらに、インストラクターの方にはおすすめのビーチやレストランの情報をいただき、石垣の旅がより楽しいものになりました。感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。

このツアーでは、カヤックとSUPを選べるのですが、SUPの方が、立ったり座ったりといろいろな楽しみ方ができるので、アクティブ派の方はより楽しめると思います！！
是非ツアーに参加してみてください。

I participated with my wife in early June. In the morning, we did stand-up paddleboarding at Kabira Bay, and in the afternoon, we had a snorkeling tour at the Blue Cave.

It was right in the middle of the rainy season, and the weather wasn't great; there was thunder and it was quite rough, so we couldn't start at the scheduled time. However, we were taken to a Shisa farm while waiting for the thunder to subside, which kept us entertained. Miraculously, the weather improved, and we were able to enjoy paddleboarding! I felt that if it had been sunny, it would have been incredibly beautiful. Even in the rain, I was glad to enjoy the changes in the color of the water.

For lunch, we had a meal at Ishigaki Port Terminal, so I think it's necessary to have some change of clothes. The hamburger place they introduced us to was amazing, and I was really impressed.

In the afternoon, we went on the Blue Cave tour. The instructions were very thorough, but those who have participated in similar activities multiple times might find it a bit lacking. The snorkeling itself was a bit murky due to the heavy rain in the morning, but we were able to enjoy it.

The Blue Cave was beautiful, but I had expected something even more spectacular, so it was a bit disappointing, haha. Overall, we had a really fun time. Thank you!

6月上旬に妻と2人で参加しました。午前中に川平湾でのsup、午後から青の洞窟シュノーケルツアーでした。
ちょうど梅雨の真っ只中で天候があまり良くなく、朝から雷がなっている大荒れだったので予定時刻から始められず、雷がおさまるまでの間シーサー農園などに連れて行ってもらえて暇を持て余すことなく過ごすことができました。奇跡的に天候が回復してsupをたのしむこともできました！ただ晴れてたらめちゃめちゃ綺麗だったんだろうなという感じでした。雨の中でも、水の色の変化などは楽しめてよかったです。
お昼は石垣港ターミナルで昼食になるのである程度の着替えが必要かと思います。紹介していただいたハンバーガー屋さんが激うまで感動でした。
午後からは青の洞窟ツアーでした。かなり丁寧に教えていただいたのですが、何度もアクティビティに参加されてる方には少し物足りなく感じるかもしれません。シュノーケル自体は午前中の豪雨もあり少し水が濁ってましたが、楽しむことが出来ました。
青の洞窟は綺麗でしたが、なんかもっとすごいのを期待しちゃってたので少し期待はずれでした笑
全体的にすごく楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。ありがとうございました！
