I participated in the half-day plan. In the morning, they picked me up at the hotel on time and took me to the port. It was farther from the island terminal than I expected, so I was glad I didn't have to go there on my own.
With 14 passengers and 3 crew members, we set off on a boat with a sunshade. They lent us seasickness bands at the start, and thanks to that, even though it was a day with high waves, no one got seasick until the end.
That day, the tide was higher than ever, and the phantom island was only partially visible. Since it was crowded with other tour guests, we decided to snorkel first and then go to the phantom island.
During the transfer, there was a snorkeling lesson, and they provided very detailed instructions.
Finally, we arrived at Ishigaki Coral Lagoon. There were colorful fish and blue and yellow corals! I even saw a clownfish! It was a bit disappointing that the visibility wasn't as high as I had hoped, but I still had a great time.
It was a bit chilly during the transfer after getting in the water, so it would be good to have a cover-up that can get wet.
And finally, we reached the phantom island.
After swimming a bit from the boat, we landed on the island. It was truly a beach-only island, and I was moved! Since the tide had receded more than in the morning and the number of tour guests had decreased, I was glad that RISE adjusted the plan according to the situation. I took plenty of photos for 30 minutes, lay on the sandy beach, and thoroughly enjoyed the phantom island. I didn't have the courage to dress up as a mermaid, but it looked cute when I saw others doing it.
The morning tour ended at 12:00, and they took us back to the hotel afterward.
You can have plenty of fun even with the half-day plan! They provided all the necessary snorkeling gear, tea, and seasickness bands, so all you need to do is wear your swimsuit and bring a towel while waiting at the hotel, which is convenient. The service was very polite, so I highly recommend it. Since the tide was too high this time, I would like to participate again during low tide.
半日プランに参加しました。
朝、時間通りにホテルまで迎えに来てくれ、港まで送ってくれました。離島ターミナルからは思ったより離れた港だったので自力で行かなくて良かったです。
14名の乗客と3名のクルーが乗り込み、日除け屋根つきの船で出発。
出発時に酔い止めバンドを貸してくれました。そのおかげか、波が高い日でしたが最後まで誰も酔っていませんでした。
この日は今までにないほど潮が満ちていて、幻の島は少ししか出ていないそう。他のツアー客で混み合っているので、まずシュノーケルをして、その後に幻の島へ行くことになりました。
移動中にシュノーケル講習があり、細かいところまでとても丁寧に指導してくれました。
いざ石西礁湖へ。
色とりどりの魚や、青や黄の珊瑚!カクレクマノミもいました!透明度は思ったほど高くなかったのが残念でしたが、それでも充分楽しめました。
海に入った後の移動中は少し寒かったので、濡れてもいい羽織りがあると良さそうです。
そしてついに幻の島へ。
船から少し泳いで島へ上陸。
本当に砂浜だけの島、感動しました!
朝よりも潮が引きツアー客も減っていたので、状況をみながらプランを練りなおしてくれるRISEさんで良かったと思いました。
30分間思う存分に写真を撮り、砂浜に寝転がり、幻の島を堪能しました。
人魚のコスプレは勇気が出なくてしませんでしたが、見ていたら可愛かったです。
午前ツアーは12時に終了し、その後ホテルまで送ってくれました。
半日プランでも充分に楽しめます!
シュノーケルに必要な装備全てとお茶、酔い止めバンドも用意してくれ、水着を着てタオルを持ってホテルで待っていればいいので楽です。対応もとても丁寧なのでおススメです。
今回は潮が高すぎたので、引き潮の時にまた参加してみたいです。

The chirping of birds colors the jungle river. When I listened closely to the flapping of their wings and closed my eyes, I could feel a nature that is much kinder and harsher than myself. The mangroves don’t say anything, but they firmly root themselves in the riverbed, as if they are trying to convey something to us tourists. The waterfall spills beautiful water endlessly, creating a sense that it is inviting us into a healing space. In the natural cave, I felt a strong aura and was enveloped by the air of another world flowing within the cave. On the white coral island of Baras, the beautiful contrast of the vibrant light blue sea and white is striking, stimulating all my senses no matter where I am. I experienced things I could never normally feel all at once and learned about the world of remote islands that I had not yet known.
鳥のさえずりがジャングルの川を彩ってくれます。
鳥の羽ばたきに耳を澄ませて、目をつぶってみると自分よりもずっと優しくて厳しい自然を感じることができました。
マングローブは何も言わないけどしっかりと川底の地面に根を張っていて、観光客の私たちに何かを伝えてくれてるようでした。
滝からはきれいな水がとめどなく溢れていて、私達を癒やしの空間に誘ってくれているような感じがしました。
自然の洞窟には強いオーラを感じ洞窟内に流れる別世界の空気に包み込まれていきました。
白いサンゴの島、バラスでは色鮮やかな水色の海と白のコントラストが美しく、どこにいても五感が揺さぶられます。
普段感じることができない経験を一度に体験でき、まだまだ知らなかった離島の世界を教わりました。

I was really intrigued by Iriomote Island, which is mostly untouched by development and boasts stunning natural beauty. It's located deep among the remote islands, and you reach the caves and waterfalls by navigating through the jungle. The jungle is so dense that you can easily lose your sense of direction, making it a place you definitely shouldn't venture into alone. To get to the waterfalls, you kayak from the sea into the river. Everyone who went trekking in the caves enjoyed discovering such caves hidden in the jungle. On Barasu Island, countless corals shine white, surrounded by a turquoise sea, and the soothing sounds of the corals and waves were incredibly relaxing. It’s a place I would love to visit again.
あまり開発されてなく島のほとんどが大自然の西表島にすごく興味を惹かれて参加しました。
離島の中でも最奥にあって、洞窟や滝はジャングルの中を抜けて向かいます。
ジャングルの中は方向を見失うほど草木が生い茂っていて、絶対に一人ではいけないような場所ばかりでした。
滝に向かうには海からカヤックで川へとはいります。
洞窟のトレッキングは見た人全員がジャングルの中にこんな洞窟があるなんてと楽しんでました。
バラス島には無数のサンゴが白く輝いていて周囲は水色の海が広がりざらざらとサンゴの音、波の音だけで癒やされました。
また行きたいと思える島でした

I was able to enjoy the experience until the end with lectures tailored to each individual, without neglecting safety or fun. We collected seven starfish and took a group photo with them. Personally, I tried free diving for the first time while snorkeling. It was more exhausting than I expected. Next time, I want to work on diving deeper. Although we had to change locations due to the typhoon, the final diving competition was fun. I will participate again, so thank you in advance.
安全も楽しさも両方疎かにせず一人一人に合ったレクチャーで最後まで楽しめました。ヒトデが多買ったのでヒトデを7つ集めてみんなで写真撮りました。個人的にシュノーケリングで初めて素潜り挑戦。思った以上に体力消耗しました。次はもっと深く潜れるよう頑張りたい。ただ台風のせいでポイント変更にはなってしまいましたが、最後の飛び込み大会?は楽しかったです。また参加しに参りますのでよろしくお願いします。

I participated in a trip to Ishigaki Island in late June. There were just under 10 participants, and 2 staff members provided us with thorough explanations about snorkeling. My wife, who is not fond of the ocean, forgot her worries because the sea was so beautiful and there were plenty of fish, so she had a great time. I think it's also recommended for beginners. There was a group with children, and in addition to life jackets, they were also provided with children's floaties. On the phantom island, we were able to rent mermaid costumes, which made my wife very happy. There was plenty of time for both snorkeling and the phantom island, and with some free time as well, we were able to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. Since we were scheduled to return on an afternoon flight, we used the shower at the office right by the port, and they also recommended a great place for lunch. I was a bit worried that the tour on the last day might be too much, but I’m glad I signed up as we were able to enjoy our Ishigaki Island trip until the very end. It seems there are various other tours available, so I would definitely like to use them again.
6月の後半に石垣島旅行に行った際に参加しました。参加者は10名弱でスタッフは2名ついてくださり、シュノーケリングの説明も丁寧にして頂けました。妻は海が苦手でしたがそんなことを忘れるくらい、海が綺麗で魚もたくさんいたので、楽しんでました。初心者の方にもおすすめだと思います。子連れのグループもいましたが、ライフジャケットに加えて、子供用の浮輪も貸してもらえてました。幻の島ではマーメイドの衣装を借りれて、妻も喜んでました。シュノーケリングも幻の島も時間には余裕がありま

I joined the tour hoping to see the Iriomote cat, even though I wasn't expecting much. I was happy when our guide, Mr. Koiwa, said he would do his best to find it, even though it would be tough! When we went to a jungle-like area, there was a single coconut crab at the water spot, and I took a lot of pictures! On the way to the stargazing point, the guide found an owl and took us close to it; it was super cute! The stargazing point had no clouds, so I felt lucky to see three shooting stars! Unfortunately, I didn't see the Iriomote cat, but I got to see many other creatures, so it became a great memory!
イリオモテヤマネコを一度見てみたくてダメ元でツアーに参加しました。

During the tour, time was managed to allow us to enjoy as many mangroves and caves as possible, and I was able to fully appreciate the charm of Iriomote Island in a short time!
On the way to the limestone cave, we passed through the jungle!
The trees were all large, and I was surprised to see plants bearing fruit on their trunks.
It seems that the leaves of the Totoro plant are toxic, so we were careful not to break them while taking commemorative photos.
As we passed through the naturally formed cave arch, it led us further into the jungle, where we spotted red birds, which was interesting.
Bara Island, formed by a collection of coral, offers a stunning ocean view that truly lives up to its name of "pure white paradise."
Thanks to the strong sunlight, the blue of the sea was vividly clear and beautiful.

I was captivated by the majestic nature of Kabira Bay without feeling the usual noise and stress of daily life. Standing on the SUP, the angle changed, allowing me to see the sea more beautifully from above, which was truly moving. Even though I was still in Japan, the atmosphere felt completely different; the sounds I heard were just the waves and the wind, and I realized I was experiencing a calmness that was the opposite of my usual feelings. I am deeply grateful for the nature of Ishigaki Island.
The Blue Cave was crowded with other people, but the laughter and joyful atmosphere made it not bothersome at all. I was able to observe clownfish and enjoy a luxurious time. The gaps in the coral felt like pathways in the sea, making swimming a lot of fun. Finally, I took a natural shower under the waterfall and had a great time, creating wonderful memories.

Canoeing in Kabira Bay was said to have the best ocean views in Ishigaki Island, and I paddled to my heart's content! At the waterfall basin, I could swim like in a pool and jumping in was surprisingly the most fun part!

I had been looking forward to the tour since I heard that I could do stand-up paddleboarding at the most famous spot in Ishigaki Island, Kabira Bay. I usually enjoy running and am confident in my stamina, and since I also like surfing, I was able to stand up and ride quickly.
During snorkeling, there were many people from other tours, and I discovered different charms of Ishigaki Island that I hadn't known before, which made me very satisfied. I felt reluctant to leave, saying I wanted to stay here forever, and the guide kindly allowed me to stay just a little longer, letting me swim until the very last moment. Thank you! Finally, I was able to wash off the salt at the waterfall and received the tour photos, leaving me with nothing to complain about!

I was half excited and half anxious about what would happen before the tour started. Everything explained was filled with creatures and plants I had never seen before, and while taking commemorative photos by the bean stalk, we quickly arrived at the waterfall. We walked along the gently flowing river to the waterfall, where we saw river fish, crabs, and gobies. I tried to chase and catch them, but they were too quick and escaped. It was interesting to get close to the mangroves by canoe, within reach to touch! The snorkeling at Baras Island was filled with abundant coral! I swam in such a beautiful sea for the first time.
ツアーが始まるまではどうなるのか期待半分、不安半分でした。
説明されるものすべて見たことない生き物や、植物ばかりで豆の木で記念撮影をしてると、あっという間に滝までついていました。

I had my first experience of shower trekking, walking along a beautiful river with unspoiled nature, on a course that is easy for beginners. If you love nature, you can enjoy it even if you're not good at sports. While stand-up paddleboarding in the mangroves, I bumped into a curve, but the board protected me.
The waterfall was about 5 meters high and compact, but it had a pool-like basin where you can swim and have fun. The beauty of the sunlight streaming into the dark cave made me feel wrapped in nature, allowing me to relax.
The boat ride to Balas Island revealed coral formations that looked like mountains, and you can enjoy a world of white and blue from anywhere. There were boats for snorkeling and diving at a distance, and it was a very popular spot with many people stopping by Balas Island.
Thank you for a full day of adventure. I will definitely recommend this to my friends who are going next time!
初心者でも簡単に行けるコースで汚れていない自然が残ったきれいな川を歩けるシャワートレッキングを初めて体験できました。

滝は高さが5mくらいでコンパクトでしたが、プールみたいな滝つぼがあり泳いで楽しめます。
鍾乳洞は暗がりの中に差し込む太陽の光との美しさで大自然に包み込まれてるようでリラックスできました。
船で向かったバラス島はサンゴが山のような形をしていてどこにいても白と青の世界を楽しめます。

On the Sunday in the middle of the three-day weekend, I took a half-day tour. The weather was great, and I enjoyed the Phantom Island and snorkeling. The young girls also had fun taking pictures in mermaid costumes available for free rental on Phantom Island.
Since many tour companies gather in one place, it can get crowded, but that's to be expected. On the day of the tour, the port was just a short drive from the meeting point, where we parked and boarded the boat. There were about 20 participants and 3 staff members. They provided a brief snorkeling lecture and accompanied us during the actual snorkeling. We were able to see many fish in the beautiful sea. However, I would have appreciated a bit more time for snorkeling.
One downside was the lack of showers. I had to rinse off using a hose at the port. I recommend staying at a hotel for consecutive nights when using the tour, so you can use the hotel shower during the day.
3連休の真ん中だった日曜日に半日ツアーを利用しました。
天候にも恵まれ、幻の島とシュノーケリングを楽しめました。若い女の子達は幻の島で無料レンタルの人魚コスプレでの撮影も楽しんでいました。
各ツアー会社がわんさか集まるので混雑していますが、仕方ないですね。
当日は待ち合わせ場所から車でほんの少し移動した場所に港があり、そこの駐車場に車を停めて乗船。
参加者約20名に対し、スタッフ3名。シュノーケリングの簡単な講義をしてくれ、実際のシュノーケリングにも帯同してくれました。美しい海で魚をたくさん見ることができました。ただ、もう少しシュノーケリングの時間があると嬉しいところです。
残念だったのはシャワーが無かったこと。仕方なく、港にある水道のホースで体を流しました。ツアー利用の際にはホテルを連泊し、昼間でもホテルのシャワーを使える用意をしておくことをオススメします。

Walking through the jungle at night in the warm tropical climate, the starry sky viewed from the sandy beach was breathtaking. The service was incredibly attentive, and they took care of us, who were not used to traveling to remote islands, allowing us to comfortably experience nature exploration in the pitch darkness of Iriomote Island. The passage of time felt special, and I was captivated by the island's charm that made me forget the city. When we moved to a different location in the square, the starry sky came into view so beautifully that it was hard to tell if it was reality or a dream. They quickly informed us if there were muddy spots underfoot, and the photos taken with my friends at a spot where we could see the stars and the sea were fantastic!

流れる時間は特別に感じ、都会を忘れさせてくれる島の魅力に心動かされました。
場所を変え広場に移動すると星空が視界に飛び込んできて現実か夢か分からなくなるほどきれいでした。
足元がぬかるんでいるところがあればすぐに教えてくれたし、友人と一緒に星空と海が見えるところで撮ってくれた写真も最高でした!

The cave turns blue because the white sand reflects sunlight from the seabed. The cave had almost no waves and was used as a practice spot for beginner snorkelers. They provide marine boots to prevent slipping and falling, as the cave is made of hard, sharp rocks. They kindly advised us to crouch down and place our hands on the rocks when entering the cave. They also helped pull up children who seemed to have difficulty exiting and guided us well. We swam not only in the cave but also at other snorkeling points, which were incredibly beautiful and filled with many fish! At Kabira Bay, they made various announcements to ensure the tour was safe.
洞窟内が青くなるのは白砂が日射しを海底から照らすから光るみたいです。
洞窟内はほとんど波がなくシュノーケル初心者の練習場所として使われていました。
洞窟は硬くて尖った岩でできているので、滑って転んだりしないようにマリンブーツを貸してくれます。
洞窟内に入るときはなるべく腰を下ろし手を岩場に付けてくださいと親切に教えてくれました。
出るときが難しそうなお子さんの手を掴み引き上げてくれ、誘導もちゃんとしていました。
洞窟内だけでなくその他のシュノーケルポイントでも泳いだのですが、そこがすごく綺麗でお魚が沢山いました!
川平湾では安全にツアーができるように色々とアナウンスしてくれました。

In the untamed jungle, you can hear the sounds of bats and owls, and there are places where you can gaze at the star-filled sky. It's recommended to observe the stars in a cool tropical environment while listening to the calls of wild birds.
Even near the coast, bats are flying around, and there was a cave close to the sandy beach that was home to coconut crabs. The stars are so beautiful that the area has been designated as a starry sky protection zone, and you can usually see famous constellations like the Milky Way depending on the season.
I've heard that fireflies can be seen from March to May, so if I get the chance, I would like to participate in that as well.
整備されていないジャングルの森にはコウモリやフクロウの鳴き声が聞こえ、満天の星を眺められる場所もあり、野鳥の声を聞きながら南国の涼しい環境で星を観察できオススメです。
海岸近くでもコウモリは飛んでて、砂浜すぐ近くの洞窟にはヤシガニのお家がありました。
星は星空保護区に指定されるほどきれいで、天の川など時期によって有名な星座はたいてい見れまました。
3月から5月までホタルが見れるとのことなので機会があればそちらの方も参加してみたいなと思います。

As a greedy and lazy person, I was looking for a tour that would allow me to enjoy various places all at once, and I stumbled upon this one! I was drawn to the great value package tour and decided to join! Since I was also interested in the gourmet scene of Iriomote Island, I was able to have stylish restaurants selected for me, which was perfect for someone like me who loves fashion!
The canoe experience, entering from the sea and progressing into the river, was welcomed by the natural plants of Iriomote Island, leaving a lasting impression with their unique shapes that you wouldn't find in the city. I heard that there were fish swimming in the river, going back and forth to the sea. The natural limestone cave had a hole that looked like a tunnel. I was told that it was the result of rainwater dissolving over thousands of years.
Bara Island was like a cute little uninhabited island where you could land without swimming. Since it's made of coral, I didn't have to worry about getting hurt. Each tour was packed with the best parts, and I was extremely satisfied!
欲張りで面倒くさがりな私はなるべくまとめて色んな所で遊びたくてツアーを探してて偶然発見!
お得なセットツアーに惹かれて参加しました!
西表島グルメにも興味があったのでオシャレ好きな私にピッタリのお店をセレクトしてもらえました!
海からエントリーして川に進むカヌー体験は西表島の自然の植物がお出迎えしてくれて都会にはない不思議な形が印象に残っています。
川には魚も泳いでいて、海を行ったり来たりしてると聞きました。
自然の鍾乳洞はぽっかり穴が空いてトンネルみたいになってました。
何千年も時間をかけて雨水が溶かした結果なんですと、が教えてくれました。
バラス島は泳がずに上陸できる小さな無人島みたいでかわいかったです。
サンゴでできてるので、ケガを心配しなくて良いです。
それぞれのツアーの良いところを最大限に詰め込まれていて大満足!

I participated in a night jungle tour because I wanted to see nocturnal creatures. I was able to enjoy a variety of animals, including small frogs, large frogs, owls, bats, and coconut crabs! The starry sky was also beautifully visible, and I was very satisfied. Thank you!
夜の生き物を見たかったので夜のジャングルツアーに参加させていただきました。
小さなカエルに大きなカエル、フクロウやコウモリ、ヤシガニなど他にも色々な生き物が見れ存分に楽しませて頂きました!
星空も綺麗に見れ大満足でした。

I participated in a one-day tour. In the morning, we did SUP and caving, and after having lunch, we went to Barasu Island.
At first, I struggled a bit with SUP, but by the end, I got the hang of it and was able to play around with my friends, which was fun. In the caving, I felt the grandeur of the stalactites that grow only a few millimeters each year.
Finally, we landed on Barasu Island, took photos, and collected some coral. It seems like I can make cute chopstick rests from the coral! I'm glad I chose this tour, and I want to come back to Iriomote Island again.
1日ツアーに参加しました。午前中にSUPとケイビングをして、お昼ご飯をはさんだ後にバラス島に行きました。
SUPの時、始めはなかなか思うようにのれなかったけど終盤になってからは友達と落とし合いなんかができるくらいになれて、楽しかったです。ケイビングでは年に数ミリしか伸びない鍾乳洞の壮大さを感じました。
最後にバラス島に上陸して写真やサンゴをとって帰りました。サンゴで可愛いお箸置きが作れそうです!また西表島に来たいと思うツアーで良かったです。

I wanted to make the most of my short stay on Iriomote Island, so I joined this tour that takes you to the mangrove limestone cave and Barasu Island. I was worried about whether I could enjoy it while being pressed for time, but the tour was designed with participants like me in mind, so I was able to enjoy it without any wasted time. I also managed to catch the ferry to Ishigaki Island without being late! The tour staff was very responsive to requests from participants, which left a great impression on me regarding their consideration for us. I didn't have many opportunities to express my gratitude, so I sent a thank-you message via LINE, and I received a prompt reply, showing that their aftercare was excellent!
とにかく短い滞在期間で西表島を遊び尽くしたかったので、マングローブ鍾乳洞バラス島に行けるこのツアーに参加しました。
時間に追われながら果たして楽しめるのかと思いましたが、私のようなタイトな参加者も考慮されているツアー内容だったので、無駄なく楽しめました。
石垣島行きのフェリーにも遅れることなく乗れました!
他にも参加者がいる中でかなり要望に答えてくれたので、参加者への気配り精神がしっかりしてるなぁと好印象!
なかなかお礼を言う瞬間がなかったのでラインでお礼のメッセージを送ると、すぐに返事が来てアフターケアもバッチリでした!

I had a one-on-one experience with a diver. They carefully taught me everything I was worried about regarding diving, which was really great.
During the dive, I felt secure knowing they were right behind me.
They took 60 photos for me, so I didn't even need to bring my GoPro.
The changing area and shower room were a bit limited, but I don't think it was a problem.
The diver was incredibly attentive, and the service was excellent.
マンツーマンでダイバーが付いてくれました。ダイビングで心配になることを全て丁寧に教えていただきすごくよかったです。
ダイビング中も後ろからついてくれているため、安心です。
写真も60枚もとっていただき、goproなど持って行かなくても良かったです。
脱衣所、シャワー室は少し少ないですが、
特に問題ないと思います。
ダイバーさんがとにかく丁寧でサービスも良かったです。

I wanted to see a lot of shooting stars, so after doing some research, I found out that Iriomote Island also offers a view of the Milky Way, and I made a reservation. The weather was clear, so I enjoyed the stars near an observation deck with a sense of openness. I was able to see shooting stars, and I successfully achieved my goal. I also saw Mars, Jupiter, and Venus. The soothing sound of the gentle waves allowed me to experience the tranquility of nature. The small jungle on the sandy beach was filled with rare nocturnal natural monuments. When I encountered a coconut crab and a hermit crab, I was understandably startled, but I was gently reassured that as long as I didn't approach and kept my distance, there was nothing to worry about. I hope that the unchanging nature will remain forever...
流れ星がたくさん見たくて色々調べたら西表島がさらに天の川も見れることが分かり、申し込みました。
天気も晴れたので開放感のある展望台近くで星を満喫。
流れ星も見えて、目的も無事達成。火星木星金星も見れました。
静かな波の音に癒やされて、自然の時間を体験できました。
砂浜にあるちょっとしたジャングルには夜行性の珍しい天然記念物の生き物で溢れてました。
ヤシガニにオカヤドカリ、ハブが出てきたときは流石に動揺しましたが近づかず警戒させなければ何も心配はいらないよと優しく声がけしてくれました。
いつまでも変わらない自然が残ればいいなと思いました…

Dear Sato,
Thank you very much for participating in our one-day snorkeling tour the other day.
As you mentioned, it really does take more energy than expected, doesn’t it? But I hope that the fatigue was a pleasant one for you!
It’s unfortunate that we had to change the location due to the typhoon. We truly hope you can enjoy the clarity of the waters in Kerama next time. There are spots where the chances of encountering sea turtles are quite high!
We look forward to your next visit.

先日は当店の1日シュノーケルツアーにご参加していただき誠にありがとうございます。
さとさん様のおっしゃるように想像以上に体力を消耗しますよね( *´艸`)
でもその疲れも心地いい疲れだったのではないでしょうか(*^▽^*)??!
台風の影響でポイント変更になり残念(´・ω・`)
是非とも今度はケラマの透明度を堪能していただきたく思います。
ポイントによってはウミガメとの遭遇率が高い場所もあります☆彡
さとさん様のまたのご参加スタッフ一同お待ちしております。
