All Reviews for Okinawa SUP (Stand Up Paddleboard)

Starting in the morning was great, and swimming in the cold water felt refreshing. The snorkeling was wonderful as the sea was very clear with little wave action, allowing us to see turtles and fish up close, and we were able to take some lovely photos! Paddleboarding was enjoyable as I could feel the wind while paddling. It was a tour that even beginners could enjoy, so I would love to try it again when I visit Miyako Island! The tour guide was also very kind, teaching us how to use the equipment and sharing hidden spots, and they were a bright and entertaining person.

午前中からのスタートだったので、冷たい水の中で泳ぐことができ気持ちが良いです。シュノーケリングは海がとても透き通っていて波も少なかったので、亀や魚を間近でみることができ、素敵な写真も撮っていただけました♪サップは風を感じながら気持ちが良く漕げました。初心者でも楽しめるツアーだったのでまた宮古島に来た際はもう一度やってみたいと思います！ツアーガイドさんも丁寧に用具の使い方や穴場スポット等を教えてくれ、明るく面白い方でした（＾ν＾）

The sea was beautiful, and I was glad to see sea turtles! The cave we paddled to by canoe was mystical, and it was a precious experience! Thank you!

海もきれいし、ウミガメも見られてよかったー！
カヌーを漕いで行った鍾乳洞は神秘的で貴重な体験ができました！
ありがとうございました！

The guide Mana was really friendly and she took really good photos for us. We found so many sea turtles that day. It was really amazing. I highly recommend it even if you are a foreigner.

I participated with a friend. The instructor provided a thorough explanation, and we had a lot of fun on the tour. They also took many photos during the snorkeling, which we received afterward, so that was great. It was my first time in Miyako Island, but I learned a lot about the island, and during the morning snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle, which was satisfying! There were also several participants who joined alone, so I think it's fine to participate solo as well.

2人で参加しました。インストラクターの方にご丁寧にご説明いただき、とても楽しくツアーに参加できました。
またシュノーケリング中にお写真もたくさん撮っていただきそのあといただけたので、とても良かったです。宮古島は初めてでしたが、島のことも色々と教えていただき、午前中のシュノーケリングでは、ウミガメもみることができ満足です！
1名で参加させれている方も複数おり、一名で参加されても良いかと思います。

It was my first time in Miyako Island! I had a great experience with PiPi when I visited Ishigaki Island before, so I used their services again!

We did canoeing and snorkeling, and the explanations were thorough from start to finish. I really appreciated how they engaged with each customer individually! During canoeing, the instructions were clear, and they made sure to check in with everyone while we were out on the water, which allowed us to enjoy ourselves!

In snorkeling, I was able to see a sea turtle, which made me very satisfied! They took photos for us multiple times, creating wonderful memories! I want to visit Miyako Island again and would love to use their services once more!

初めてのの宮古島でした！以前石垣島に行った時に、こちらのPiPiさんにお世話になりとてもよかったのでまた利用しました！
カヌーとシュノーケリングでしたが、最初から最後まで丁寧な説明で、一人一人のお客さんと向き合っている感じがとてもよかったです！
カヌーをしましたが、説明もわかりやすく、乗っている間もそれぞれ回って丁寧に声掛けをしていて、楽しむことができました！シュノーケリングでは、ウミガメをみることができて大満足でした！写真を何度も撮っていただき、素敵な思い出になりました！
また宮古島に行きたいですし、またこちらを利用したいです！

Right after the announcement of the end of the rainy season, we participated as a mature couple in late June. On the day of the event, the temperature rose from the morning, and it was a perfect sunny day for canyoning with eight participants in four couples. We were the oldest, of course!

Wearing life jackets and helmets, we headed to the starting point! Even though it was summer, the first photo spot where we had to immerse ourselves up to our necks made everyone scream from the cold water. As we jumped from a high point and played on the rapid slides, everyone naturally returned to their childhood. The sun, the subtropical greenery, and the splashing water from the flow gently relaxed our hearts, which usually live in the city.

At the end, we climbed a wall and jumped about 4 meters into the river! After sinking underwater for a moment, we popped up and took a breath, safely returning to the surface! It was the best moment, feeling one with Iriomote Island.

It was such a fun experience that passed by in the blink of an eye, making us wish we could enjoy it for a longer time. Highly recommended!

梅雨明け宣言の直後、６月後半に熟年夫婦で参加しました。当日は朝から気温も上昇、快晴のキャニオリング日和で参加者はカップル４組の８人。私達が最高齢笑。
ライフジャケットとヘルメットを付けスタート地点へ！真夏の気温とはいえ最初に首まで浸かる写真スポットでは水の冷たさに一同悲鳴〜。高台から飛び込み、急流の滑り台に遊ばれと進むにつれ自然と童心に帰っている皆さん。太陽と亜熱帯の緑、飛沫を上げる流れにと南の島の豊かな自然が都会に暮らす私達の心を優しくほぐしてくれます。
最後はクライミングもどきに壁をよじ登り約4m程から川面へジャンプ！一旦水中に沈みブハッ！と顔を出し息を吸うと無事生還！西表島と一体感を味わう最高の瞬間です。
もっと長い時間を楽しみたいと思うほどあっという間に過ぎた楽しい体験でした。
おすすめです！

The staff member was very friendly, and during the移動中, he talked about dialects and plants, which made it interesting and kept us entertained! The Pumpkin Cave felt like an adventure and was truly fun; we were able to take a lot of photos✨ It was a place I really wanted to visit, so it became a wonderful memory.
Although we encountered turtles while snorkeling, it was quite challenging to take photos, but the staff member persevered until the very last moment, and we were finally able to get some pictures! I was about to give up on getting any, so I was really happy at that moment❣️
Thank you very much.

担当のお兄さんのノリもよく、移動中も方言や植物などの話もしてくれて飽きず面白かったです！パンプキン鍾乳洞は探検のようで本当に楽しく、写真もたくさん撮ってもらえました✨行きたかった場所だったので本当に良い思い出になりました。
シュノーケリングは亀とは出会えたものの、写真は撮るのはかなり厳しそうな状況でしたが、お兄さんがかなりお時間ギリギリまで粘ってくれて最後には写真が撮れました！撮れないかなと諦めかけてたところだったので、あの時は本当に嬉しかったです❣️
ありがとうございました。

I tried snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) for the first time! The guide was very attentive, and I was able to enjoy my time comfortably.

In snorkeling, I was able to see many fish the moment I entered the water, and I was even lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle, which became a truly wonderful memory.

Thanks to the detailed instructions on how to paddle and ride from scratch during SUP, I was able to enjoy it right away, and time flew by so quickly.

Thanks to everyone, I have fallen in love with Miyako Island and would like to come back again.

初めてシュノーケルとSUPをしました！
ガイドさんが非常に丁寧で気持ちよく過ごせました。
シュノーケルでは、入った瞬間からたくさんの魚たちを見ることが出来て、更に幸運にもウミガメに出会うことができて、本当にいい思い出になりました。
SUPではイチから丁寧に漕ぎ方、乗り方を教えてもらったおかげですぐに楽しめるようになり、本当にあっという間に時間が過ぎてしました。
皆様のおかげで宮古島が大好きになり、また来たいと思います。

In the morning, I went snorkeling at Shigira Beach to look for sea turtles! Right from the shallow waters, there were so many beautiful fish swimming around, and it was truly breathtaking! As I swam a little further, the sea turtle I had been hoping to see swam towards me, and I was able to witness the moment it surfaced for air! This seems to be a rare experience, and I’m really glad I participated to see such a precious moment! I was very satisfied with all the photos taken. In the afternoon, I tried stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) for the first time, and since they taught me how to paddle carefully, I was able to enjoy it while participating!

午前にシギラビーチでシュノーケル、ウミガメを探しに海に出ました！浅瀬すぐから魚たちがたくさん泳いでいてとっっっても綺麗で感動しました！少し泳いでいくと会いたかった海ガメがこちらに泳いで来てくれて、息継ぎのために海面から顔を出す瞬間まで見ることが出来ました！これはレアな体験のようですが、そんな貴重な瞬間を見ることができて参加して本当に良かったです！たくさんの写真を撮ってもらえて大満足です。午後からは初めてSUPをしましたが、丁寧に漕ぎ方を教えて頂けたので、楽しみながら参加することができました！

We participated as a family of four, including a second-year middle school student and a fourth-year elementary school student. In the morning, we went to the Pumpkin Cave, and in the afternoon, we snorkeled at Alagusuk Beach. The Pumpkin Cave was truly mystical and worth visiting. Additionally, during the afternoon snorkeling, we were able to see sea turtles! We encountered them twice, which was surprising. The guide was also very courteous throughout, making it a fun experience.

中学2年と小学4年の子供を含む家族四人で参加させて頂きました。
午前中にパンプキン鍾乳洞に行き、午後はアラグスク海岸でシュノーケルというスケジュールでした。
パンプキン鍾乳洞は、本当に神秘的で、行く価値ありです。
また、午後のシュノーケルでも、ウミガメにちゃんと会えました！二回も遭遇できて、びっくりしました。
ガイドさんも終始丁寧に案内してくれて、楽しかったです。

Mammoth Tour Company. Everything is messy. There are too many inefficiencies in the operations, and the quality of the guides is terrible. They advertise on their website that you can visit three places for 15,000 yen, but in reality, it's only two. I do not recommend this at all. I think it's better to go with a privately operated guide.

マンモスツアー会社。全てが雑。オペレーションも無駄が多いし、ガイドの質が悪すぎる。15000円で3つ行けるとホームページに書いておきながら実際は二つとかあり得ない。全くオススメしません。個人経営のガイドの方がいいと思います。

I participated with a friend. The instructors for the morning sea turtle snorkeling were two women, Nakamura-san and Yuki-san, who were very kind and provided detailed guidance. My friend, who cannot swim, required quite a bit of assistance, but they remained cheerful and even took pictures with the sea turtles until the end (≧∇≦).

The instructor for the afternoon SUP was a man named Jun-san. Despite the heat, he watched over everyone and taught us how to paddle on the SUP! Thanks to him, I was able to stand up by the end (^ -^)v Of course, he took plenty of pictures too ♪

This tour made me love Miyako even more, so I look forward to joining again next time!

友人と2人で参加していました。
午前中のウミガメシュノーケリングの担当者は中村さんとゆきさんの女性のお二人で、とても親切で丁寧に案内いただきました。特に友人は水泳できないため、結構面倒いただいたと思いますが、ずっと明るく最後までウミガメとの写真も撮ってくれました（≧∇≦）
午後のSUPの担当者はじゅんさんという男性の方です。暑い中みんなを見守りながら、SUPの乗り方も教えていただきました!おかげさまで、最後は立つことができました(^-^)vもちろん写真もいっぱい撮ってくれました♪
このツアーをきっかけに、宮古のことますます好きになりましたので、また今度もよろしくお願いします‼️

I experienced snorkeling and SUP with this plan, and it was so much fun! Since I participated in early July during the busy season, there were about five or six other groups along with me, and we did the activities under the guidance of our instructor, Kei. Although there were quite a few people, we could swim freely in the ocean, and it was wonderful to see sea turtles and beautiful fish! We also got to take many photos with the sea turtles and fish, which made for even better memories.

Since this activity involves spending a long time in the water and on the SUP board under the sun, I think it's a good idea to bring at least a rash guard.

It became a really great memory. Thank you!

こちらのプランでシュノーケリングとSUPを体験しましたが、とても楽しかったです！
繁忙期の7月上旬に参加した為、他にも5、6組程の参加者と共に慶さん(インストラクターさん)の元、アクティビティを行いました。割と大人数でしたが、自由に海を泳ぐことができ、ウミガメや綺麗な魚を見ることができたのはとてもよかったです！またウミガメや魚と一緒に写真を沢山撮って頂けて、より良い思い出になったかなと思います♪
長時間海の中やSUPのボードの上で日光を浴び続けるアクティビティの為、上だけでもラッシュガードを持参した方がいいかなと思います。
とてもいい思い出になりました。
ありがとうございました！

Although we moved by car three times, it was the best tour as they chose the perfect beach each time. At the Pumpkin Cave, we went snorkeling with sea turtles, and the three guides were kind and taught us various things during the SUP course.

車移動3回したものの、適した海を毎回選んでくれて最高のツアーでした。
パンプキン鍾乳洞、海亀シュノーケリング、SUPのコースで3名のガイドさんは優しく色々教えていただきました。

Since I came to the island alone, I looked for a tour that could fill my schedule. It was far more enjoyable than I expected!

I had no idea that I could actually enter and climb in the limestone cave, so it was a pleasant surprise!

Also, since I would get wet, I couldn't bring my phone, but the guide took a lot of photos for me!

Surprisingly, it was quite physically demanding, but it was a fulfilling day!

1人で来島したため、取り敢えずスケジュールを埋められるツアーを探しました。期待より遥かに楽しかったです！

鍾乳洞はまさか入って登っていけるとは事前に知らなかったので、良い意味でのサプライズになりました！

また、水に濡れてしまうので携帯は持っていけなかったが、ガイドさんにいっぱい写真をとっていただきました！

意外と体力も消費しましたが、満喫な1日でした！

It was a bit harder than I imagined, but thanks to our guide, Kei, I had a safe and very enjoyable day! We saw many turtles and were shown various types of fish. At Pumpkin, with both the youngest and the oldest participants, we received support during challenging times, and I had an experience like no other! We took a lot of photos, and it became a wonderful memory! Thank you very much!!!

想像していたより少しハードでしたが、ガイドのけいさんのおかげで安心安全でとても楽しい一日が過ごせました！
カメもたくさん見れ、他にも様々なのお魚を見せてくれました。
パンプキンでは最年少と最年長がいる中、大変な時サポートしてくれ、今までにない経験ができました！
写真もたくさん撮って頂きとてもいい思い出になりました！
ありがとうございました！！！

We gathered at 9:00 AM (Shinjiro Coast) and disbanded at 3:30 PM (Horarizumi Beach). Since I couldn't drive, I took a taxi in the morning, and for the transfers and to the hotel, I received shuttle service. It seems that taxis are hard to catch in Miyako Island, so it might be better to allow for extra time.

In the morning, we went snorkeling and encountered sea turtles and fish! I was amazed at how close I could see them. It was so beautiful. I personally have almost no swimming experience, and I could only put my face in the water by pinching my nose and closing my eyes, but I was glad I could see so much underwater.

I want to share some tips for beginners like me, as I got panicked and ended up drinking water or losing my sense of direction. 1) When clearing the fog from the snorkeling goggles, make sure to shake off the seawater well; I got a little water in my eyes at first. 2) If you laugh too much, gaps can form in the goggles, letting water in, so keep them a bit tighter. 3) Don’t overexert yourself while swimming to avoid gasping for air and inhaling water. 4) When you put your face in the water in a "attention" position and just kick your legs, you can move straight ahead more easily. 5) If you get too absorbed and keep your face in the water, you might not hear sounds, so occasionally lift your face to listen to the guide and check your position.

In the afternoon, we went to see the Pumpkin Cave. We kayaked to the entrance of the cave, and I think if you communicate with your fellow paddlers, you can make good progress (we almost got stuck a few times). The flow was: go through the entrance hole (you can't touch the bottom here) → see the pumpkin → get out of the water and climb up the cave → listen to the guide's explanation while exploring → dive from where we first climbed. Inside the cave, there were many other tour participants, and it was sometimes hard to find a place to step, but surprisingly it wasn't slippery, and I didn't fall or slip. It was cool, and I could feel the timelessness of nature; it was wonderful.

Regarding the pumpkin, here are some points to be careful about: 1) I think the path to the kayak and the sea is the maximum sunburn zone. Apply sunscreen generously. 2) When climbing the cave, a lot of water splashes on your face, which can be alarming, but try to stay calm, grab the rope, and climb slowly without rushing (I got a pretty bad scrape on my elbow because I panicked thinking, "I'm blocking the next person! Water on my face!"). It's better to take it slow or wear a rash guard. 3) When diving, I pinched my nose and closed my eyes as I fell. Since I was wearing a life jacket, I knew I would float eventually, so I stayed calm and waited until my face was out of the water.

I wrote a lot because I had quite a bit of anxiety, but I had fun from start to finish, was moved, and was very satisfied! Even though I can't swim, I gained confidence that I could do this much. If you have a real fear or trauma, that's a different story, but for those who are inexperienced and feel scared or anxious, I think it will surprisingly work out, so I recommend participating!

(The photo is of a sea turtle I took myself. The guide will take better photos and share them.)

9:00集合(新城海岸)、15:30解散(保良泉ビーチ)でした。車の運転ができないため、朝はタクシー、間の移動とホテルまでは送迎していただきました。宮古島はタクシーが捕まりにくくなっているそうなので、時間に余裕を持った方が良いかもしれません。
午前はシュノーケリングで、ウミガメと魚に遭遇できました！こんなに近くで見られるんだ…と感動しました。とてもきれいでした。私自身泳ぎの経験がほぼなく、鼻をつまみ目を閉じないと顔を水につけられないレベルでしたが、たくさん水中を見ることができて良かったです。
パニくると水を飲んでしまったり方向が分からなくなって不安になるので、私レベルの初心者が気をつけた方がよいことを書いておきます。 ①シュノーケリングのゴーグルの曇り取りの時に海水をよく切らなかったせいで、最初少しだけ目に水が入ってしまったので、水はよく払っておく。②大きく笑うとゴーグルに隙間ができて鼻に水が入るので、ややキツめにしておく。③頑張って泳ぎすぎて息を切らして口から水を吸わないようにする。④気をつけの姿勢で顔を水につけて足だけバタバタしたら、早めに真っ直ぐ進めました。⑤夢中になってずっと顔を水につけていると音が聞こえなくなりやすいので、時たま顔を上げてガイドさんの声を聞き位置を確認する。
午後はパンプキン鍾乳洞を見に行きました。
カヤックで鍾乳洞の入り口まで行くのですが、同乗者と声をかけながら漕ぐと割と上手く進めることができるのではないかと思います。(数回座礁しかけましたが)
鍾乳洞は入り口の穴をくぐる(ここから足つきません。)→パンプキンを見る→水から上がって鍾乳洞を登っていく→ガイドさんの説明を聞きながら回る→最初登ったところからダイブ、という流れでした。鍾乳洞の中は他のツアー参加者も多く、足の踏み場に迷うこともありましたが、意外とすべりにくく、転んだり落ちたりはしませんでした。ひんやりしていて、悠久の自然を感じられて、素敵でした。
パンプキンについても、上と同様に気をつけるポイントを記載しておきます。①カヤックや、海までの道が最大の日焼けゾーンだと思います。日焼けを大げさに塗る。②鍾乳洞を登るとき、顔にかなり水がかかってビビりますが、できるだけ落ち着いてロープを掴み、焦らず冷静にのぼる。(次が詰まってしまう！顔に水が！と思って焦り、ひじにけっこう染みるすり傷ができました。落ち着いてゆっくり挑むか、ラッシュガードを着るといいと思います。)③飛び込むときは鼻をつまんで目を閉じて落ちました。ライフジャケットを来ておりそのうち絶対に浮くので、顔が水から出たと思うまで落ち着いてゆっくり耐えます。
かなり不安があったので色々書いていますが、最初から最後まで楽しかったし、感動したし、大満足です！泳げないけどここまでできたぞという自信にもなります。
本当に恐怖でトラウマがある場合は別ですが、経験なくて怖い、不安だという方でも意外となんとかなると思うので、参加してみることをおすすめします！
(写真は自力で撮ったウミガメです。ガイドさんがもっといい写真を撮って共有してくれます。)

We participated as a couple, and it was both of our first experiences with snorkeling and SUP. The instructor was very clear and thorough in their guidance, and they also monitored the health of all participants, which made us feel safe during the experience! Not only did we observe the fish, but we also enjoyed explanations about them at various points, which made it even more fun.

It was great that they took photos for us, so we didn't have to bring a camera into the water. We were able to encounter a sea turtle right away, and they filmed it with us.

One thing that concerned me was that the schedule at the time of booking was significantly different from the actual schedule. It was planned to include lunch and last until around 3 PM, but it actually ended in the morning. It wrapped up sooner than expected. While it was nice to have time afterward to enjoy other beaches and sightseeing, I think it would be helpful to have a more accurate schedule at the booking stage, as some people might be preparing lunch.

Overall, I was satisfied with this tour and would like to participate again if the opportunity arises! Thank you very much.

夫婦で参加し、二人ともシュノーケリング・SUPともに初体験でしたが、インストラクターの方がわかりやすく丁寧に指導してくださり、また、参加者全員の体調を見ながら進めてくれるので安心して体験できました！またお魚を観察するだけでなく、ところどころお魚の説明付きでより楽しめました。
写真を撮っていただけるので、海にカメラを持っていかなくても済んだのも良かったです。ウミガメにはすぐに遭遇することができ、一緒に動画で撮影してくださいました。
ひとつ気になったことと言えば、予約段階のスケジュールが実際のスケジュールとは大きく異なっていたことです。各自昼食をはさみ1５時頃までの予定でしたが、実際は午前中で終わりました。思いのほか早く終わりました。その後に行きたかった海や観光を楽しめたため良かったのですが、昼食の準備をされる方がいるかもしれないので、予約の段階で、ある程度正確なスケジュールがわかると良いのかなと思いました。
総じて、このツアーは満足しており、また機会があれば参加したいと思います！！ありがとうございました。

The staff were very friendly and made me feel comfortable participating. The beautiful sea and sky were all breathtaking! I was half worried about whether I could paddle the canoe, but there was hardly any wind, and it was just a wonderfully pleasant time. I also received many images for free. I would like to go with PiPi again next time. Thank you!

スタッフさんがとても気さくに話しかけてくれて安心して参加できました。
綺麗な海、空　全てに感動❣️カヌーも漕げるかなと半分心配しながらのエントリーでしたが、風もほとんどなく、ただただ気持ちいいだけの時間でした。
無料で画像もたくさんいただけました。次もPiPiさんでお願いします。ありがとうございました。

In the morning, I participated in a snorkeling activity, and in the afternoon, I did stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) in the mangroves!

The snorkeling was amazing, with beautiful fish and coral. Even as a near first-timer, I was able to enjoy it easily thanks to the life jacket. We swam at two spots, including Baras Island, so I got to see various underwater scenery, and I was deeply moved when I saw a sea turtle swimming up close at the end!

In the afternoon, the mangrove experience was great too. They carefully taught us how to paddle and ride, making it easy for beginners like me! I felt connected to nature in a way I usually can't, and I was healed by the natural plants and animals around the Kuura Falls!

Overall, I think it was a truly fulfilling tour that filled my heart throughout the day! The guide's explanations and the many photos we received afterward became wonderful memories.

I joined this tour as a solo traveler on a tight schedule, but the other participants and the guide were so kind that I was able to enjoy it fully on my own! Thank you very much!

午前中にシュノーケリング、午後からはマングローブでSUPというアクティビティツアーでした！

シュノーケリングは魚もサンゴもすごくキレイで、ほぼ初体験に近い私でもライフジャケットのおかげで難なく楽しめました。バラス島を含めて2か所のポイントを泳げたので色んな水中の景色が見れたのと、最後にすごく近くでウミガメが泳ぐ姿を見ることが出来たのでとても感動しました！
午後からのマングローブも、始めに乗り方漕ぎ方を丁寧に教えてくれたので初めてでも簡単に乗れました！
普段見ることのできないような大自然を感じることができ、クーラの滝にも自然の動植物にも癒やされました！
1日通して本当に心が満たされたツアーだったと思います！ガイドさんの説明や、ツアー後にたくさんもらえる写真もとても思い出になりました。

今回は弾丸の一人旅で参加したツアーでしたが、他の参加者やガイドさんも優しくて一人でも充分に楽しめました！ありがとうございました！

At 9 AM, we gathered at Shinjo Beach, surrounded by shallow waters and coral, where the waves were calm and perfect for swimming. During snorkeling, we were able to see small fish hiding among the corals, and to our surprise, we encountered three sea turtles just about four minutes after starting to swim! ^_^ It was a wonderful experience. Mao, our tour guide, shared various sightseeing knowledge with us, and he was warm and attentive to every detail. I would love to experience this tour again with my family.

朝9時に遠浅で珊瑚に囲まれた海は波も穏やかで、泳ぎやすいビーチ新城海岸で集合し、シュノーケリングでは珊瑚の陰に小さな魚を見ることもでき、泳ぎ始めて4分くらいでまさかのウミガメさん！(3匹)に会えました^_^
とてもいい体験でした。　
ツアーのマオさんからいろんな観光知識を教えて頂きました。暖かくて細かいところまで気を配りました。また家族と一緒にこのツアーを体験したいと思います。

My first canoeing experience was easier than I expected, and even someone like me who isn't good at sports was able to enjoy it without any problems. The cheerful instructor, the beautiful river, and the joyful laughter all made for the best memories. I participated in my swimsuit and got into the car just as I was. I think a larger towel might be necessary. It was helpful that we were taken directly to the hotel.

初めてのカヌーは思ったより簡単で、スポーツ苦手な私でも問題なく楽しめました。
明るいインストラクターと美しい川平の海、楽しい笑い声、全てが最高の思い出になりました。
水着のまま参加して、終わったらそのまま車に乗ります。大きめのタオルは必要かな。ホテルに直行してもらえたのは助かりました。

The experience itself and the personality of the instructor were perfect. It was a lifelong memory. They taught us everything from the basics of snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding to helpful tips with great care. I was really happy that they took so many photos for us. I would love to use their services again, and if I know anyone going to Miyako Island, I would definitely recommend them! During the session, there was a family with children, and I saw the instructor calling the child's name and interacting with them, which made me think this would be great for families as well.

体験自体も、教えてくださる方の人柄も完璧でした。一生の思い出です。
シュノーケリング、supの基本部分から、アドバイスまで一貫して丁寧に教えてくださりました。
写真もたくさん撮っていだだけで本当に嬉しかったです。次も利用させてもらいたいし、宮古島に行く知り合いがいればおすすめしたいです！！
一緒に参加している中で、お子様連れの方がいましたが、そのお子様の名前を呼んであげたりして、仲良くしている姿を見て、家族連れの方にもおすすめしたいと思いました。

With clear skies and during the low tide of a big tide, I was able to enjoy the best conditions. I had my first experience with stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) in a bay surrounded by wave-dissipating blocks, gliding over the crystal-clear sea. It turned out to be surprisingly easy, and I felt like I was riding on the Nimbus cloud with Son Goku. You can ride standing up or sitting down, both are fine. I even spotted a sea snake swimming below, which was a bit scary. Mashi took a lot of photos, and I have plenty of memories to cherish. I definitely want to try it again!

快晴の中、大潮の干潮時間と言うことで、最高のコンディションで楽しめることが出来ました。
波消しブロックの中の湾で、透き通るような海の上を初めてのSUPを楽しめました。
やってみると意外なほど簡単で、孫悟空のキント雲に乗ってる気分です。立って乗っても、座って乗ってもOK。
下を泳ぐウミヘビも見かけ、ちと怖かった(^^;
まーしーがたくさんの写真を撮ってくれて、思い出がいっぱい残りました。
是非また乗ってみたいです。

The guides were kind enough to teach us, beginners in both SAP and snorkeling, in a way that we could understand. They also supported us in areas where we felt anxious or struggled, allowing us to enjoy the experience.

There were a few other groups on the tour with us, but the guides made sure to facilitate conversations among participants, which helped us bond and have a great time. The guides seemed to genuinely enjoy their work, creating a wonderful atmosphere.

If the opportunity arises, I would definitely like to participate again.

SAPもシュノーケリングも初心者のわたしたちでもできるよう、親切に教えてくださりました。また、不安なところ、苦手なところはガイドの方にフォローいただき楽しむことができました。
自分達以外の数組も一緒のツアーでしたが、参加者同士も仲良くなれるよう会話など配慮いただきとても楽しむことができました。
ガイドの方も心から楽しそうにお仕事されており、雰囲気がとても良かったです。
また機会があれば是非こちらに参加したいと思っております。

I was guided with some little information about Iriomote Island and explanations about nature, which made the experience fresh as I could understand more about the island! Additionally, I was lucky enough to encounter a turtle while snorkeling, so I am very satisfied.

西表島のプチ情報や、自然についての解説をしながら案内してくれたので、西表島のことを理解しながら体験できるというのが新鮮でした！
またシュノーケリングでは運良くカメくんにも出会えたのでとても満足しています。

In the afternoon, I participated in SUP and sea turtle snorkeling with my wife. It was so much fun! The weather was great, and the water clarity was good. The guides were both kind and worked hard to support us. Thank you very much. I wasn't confident about SUP, but I managed to stand up well, and I also encountered turtles while snorkeling. They take photos for both activities, which makes for great memories. I participated in this tour in Ishigaki Island last year as well, and I am always very satisfied. Thank you!

午後からSUPと海亀シュノーケリングに妻と参加しました。楽しかったー。天気も良く、海の透明度もGOOD。ガイドさんもどちらも親切で、一生懸命にサポートしてくれました。ありがとうございました。SUPも自信がなかったのですが、上手く立てましたし、シュノーケリングも亀にも出会えました。どちらも写真も撮ってくれるので、良い思い出になります。こちらのツアーは石垣島で昨年も参加しましたが毎回とても満足します。ありがとうございました。

I was very moved to see about seven sea turtles up close while snorkeling! Even those who are not good at snorkeling can feel at ease participating, as the staff explained everything very thoroughly. In the second half, we chose to go canoeing, and it became the best memory as we played in the beautiful sea while relaxing! The stand-up paddleboarding also looked like a lot of fun. Additionally, the staff took photos for us, so I look forward to reminiscing while looking back at them. The tour duration was just right, and I'm glad I participated.

Thank you for such a fun tour! I would love to join again when I come back to Miyako.

シュノーケリングではウミガメが7匹ほど至近距離で見れてとても感動しました！シュノーケリングが得意ではない方も、とても丁寧にスタッフの方が説明してくださったので安心して参加できると思います。後半は私たちはカヌーを選んだのですが、リラックスしながらきれいな海でカヌーで遊べ最高の思い出になりました！サップの方もとても楽しそうでした。またスタッフの方が写真も撮ってくださるので、見返して思い出に浸りたいと思います。ツアーの時間も丁度良く、参加してよかったです。
とても楽しいツアーをありがとうございました！また宮古に来たら参加したいと思います。

I participated in a snorkeling and SUP tour on May 9th. I was worried about whether I would see sea turtles, but I was able to see many of them! There was plenty of time for both snorkeling and SUP, so I was very satisfied. The staff were friendly and made it enjoyable. It was a great trip, thank you!

5/9にシュノーケル&SUPのツアーに参加しました。
ウミガメに会えるか不安でしたが沢山会うことが出来ました！
シュノーケルの時間もSUPの時間もたっぷりあったので大満足でした。
スタッフの方も気さくで楽しめました。良い旅行になりました、ありがとうございました！

In the morning, we went snorkeling at Barasu Island. Our guide, Kaz, was very kind and explained everything in detail. There were two snorkeling spots, and at the first spot, we saw plenty of coral and fish. The next stop at Barasu Island had an astonishing level of transparency, and we were lucky enough to land there, which was breathtaking! Even though I participated without a camera, Kaz kindly sent us photos later, which was very appreciated.

After our lunch break, we experienced canoeing through the mangroves. We got off partway and took a short walk to a waterfall, which was refreshing. Our guide, Shimicchan, was all smiles and shared interesting information about Iriomote Island. He also took photos for us here.

On the way back, we were able to take a shower in a large changing room at the office, and the service was exceptional from start to finish. I am filled with gratitude for the wonderful guides!

朝はバラス島でのシュノーケリング。担当のカズさんはとても親切で、丁寧にいろいろと説明してくれました。シュノーケリングのポイントは2カ所で、最初のポイントはサンゴやサカナがいっぱいみれました。つぎのバラス島はびっくりするくらい透明度で運よく上陸でき、景色に感動！カメラなしで参加しても後からガズさんか写真を送ってくれたので、非常にありがたい。
お昼休憩のあとはマングローブの間をカヌーで体験。途中で降りて、滝までちょっと歩き、リフレッシュ。担当のしみっちゃんは笑顔全開でガイドしてくれて、西表島のことを色々話してくれておもしろかったです。ここでも写真を撮ってくれたました。
帰りはオフィスで大きな更衣室でシャワー浴びれで最初から最後まで至れり尽くせり。とてもすばらしいガイドさんたちに感謝でいっぱいです。
