The city was bright, and I was a bit worried because I couldn't see many stars, but the meeting place at the beach had a beautiful starry sky, and I was able to take photos just like in the examples.
One thing to note is that the road to the shooting location is quite dark, so it's best to allow extra time and drive safely. Also, since the beach is dark and the rocky area you climb during the shoot can be tricky, wearing sandals that are easy to climb in and won't slip off would be safer.
市内は明るく、あまり星見えなかったので少し心配でしたが集合場所のビーチは星空が広がっていて見本通りの写真を撮影していただけました
注意点は撮影場所までの道がかなり暗いので時間に余裕を持って安全運転で向かう事と、ビーチも暗い&撮影時に登る岩場に登りやすい脱げにくいサンダルだとより安全かと感じました◎

The shooting location had an incredibly beautiful starry sky visible to the naked eye, which was surprising. The photographer was very experienced and smoothly provided pose advice, allowing for natural shots. I received the photo data just a few days ago, and they are truly beautiful; I am very satisfied. I'm glad I participated. Thank you!
撮影場所は、肉眼でもものすごく綺麗な星空が見えて驚きました。カメラマンの方はとても慣れていて、ポーズのアドバイスなどスムーズに頂き、自然に撮る事が出来ました。つい先日写真のデータ頂きましたが、本当に綺麗で大満足です。参加してよかったです。ありがとうございました!

Two women nearing retirement participated. I was really glad I decided to join since I could never capture the starry sky with my own camera. I wasn't quite sure where the location was, but I heard it was close to the hotel, so I thought I would walk there. However, I was told it would be better not to because there were no streetlights, so even though it was close, I had them call a taxi to take me there. The taxi driver was a bit annoyed because it was too close, but it was definitely worth participating. The Milky Way was clearly visible, and the stars were shining brightly. The photographer was also very encouraging, which made for a great shooting experience. If I have the chance, I would love to visit Miyako Island again.
定年まじかの女子二人が参加しました。
自分のカメラでは絶対に星空は撮影できないので思い切って参加してよかったです。
場所がいまいちわからなかったのですがホテルから近いと聞いて、歩いて行こうと思いました。
でも外灯がないからやめた方がいいよと言われ、近いけどタクシーを
呼んでもらってその場所までいきました。
タクシーの運転手さんには近すぎて嫌がられましたが、参加して正解でした。
天の川は、はっきりと見えたし星が輝いていました。
カメラマンの人も上手にほめてくださるのでいい気分で撮影できました。
機会があったらまた宮古島に行きたいです。

It was a tour that allowed us to see all the highlights of Iriomote Island in one day! We were blessed with good weather and followed the schedule perfectly. The stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) was done in a river with a depth of about 50 centimeters, so it was safe even if you fell. It was fun to navigate while avoiding the trees that were stretching right above our heads in the mangroves of Iriomote Island! The guide constantly introduced us to various plants and insects, making the experience enjoyable and time flew by. I think it would be difficult for beginners to explore the mangroves on their own, so I felt it was the right decision to join this tour.
Regarding clothing, while it’s suggested to wear something that can get wet, I think it’s better to wear something like a rash guard top and bottom. I made the mistake of wearing a bikini underneath and a T-shirt and skirt on top that could get wet. In the limestone cave, we had to pass through a narrow area where the ceiling was about 50 centimeters high and the ground was wet. During the tracking, there were some really large bees and spiders that I had never seen before. Fortunately, I wasn’t stung, but I think long sleeves and long pants are safer. The shoes provided were mesh types that you can wear all day, so any footwear is fine. Although it was hot on Iriomote Island, we were mostly walking in water, which kept us cool. At the end, we were also able to use a shower, so we could change.
We stayed at Hoshino Resorts, and they even provided recommendations for accommodations and restaurants for dinner! Thank you for everything!
西表島の見どころを1日で全部回れるツアーでした!
お天気にも恵まれて、スケジュール通りに進みました。
SUPは水深50センチくらいの川でやるので転倒しても安心です。西表島のマングローブを見ながら頭のすぐ上に伸びている木を避けるように通ったりと面白かったです!
常にガイドさんが植物や虫の紹介をしてくれるので面白くてあっという間でした。
初心者が自らマングローブを見に行くのは難しいと思います、今回ツアーで参加して正解だったと思いました。
服装についてですが、濡れても良い格好とありますが、できればラッシュガードの上下のようなもので行った方が良いと思います。
ビキニタイプの水着を下に着て、上に濡れても良いTシャツとスカートで行って失敗でした。。。
鍾乳洞では下が水辺で天井が50センチほどの狭いところを通りますし、
トラッキング中は見たことないくらい大きなハチや蜘蛛もいました。幸い刺されるようなことはなかったですが、長袖長ズボンが安全だと思います。
靴はメッシュタイプのものを1日中貸していただけるので、何で行っても大丈夫です。
西表島の暑さはありますが、ほとんど足元が水辺の状態で進むため涼しく過ごせました。
最後にはシャワーも貸していただけるので、着替えもできます。
星野リゾートの宿泊でしたが、宿までの宿泊と夕食のオススメレストランまで教えていただきました!
何から何までありがとうございました!

The view was incomparable to that from the hotel balcony; it really is a hidden gem for photography. The staff were also kind and attentive, which made me feel at ease while shooting. It became a once-in-a-lifetime experience for my family. Thank you very much.

At the beginning of July, my partner and I experienced snorkeling and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) together!
It was our first time for both activities, but the guide was kind and taught us very carefully, so we quickly grasped the techniques and were able to enjoy ourselves!
The waters around Miyako Island are incredibly clear, and during snorkeling, we were able to see many colorful fish and corals from a distance! We were lucky enough to find our target sea turtles right away, and during the tour, we got to swim with six of them, which was very satisfying!
The experience of looking out at the blue sea from the SUP board was also very pleasant! I think even those who aren't very good at sports can enjoy it right away, so I would recommend it to many people!
7月初めにシュノーケル+SUPをカップルで体験しました!
シュノーケルもSUPも初めてでしたが,ガイドの方が親切でとても丁寧に教えていただけたのですぐにコツをつかむことができ,楽しむことができました!
宮古島の海は透明度がとても高く,シュノーケリングではカラフルな色の魚やサンゴを遠くからでもたくさん観賞できました!お目当てのウミガメもすぐに見つけることができ,ツアーでは運よく6匹と一緒に泳ぐことができ大満足でした!
SUPボードの上から青い海を眺めながらの体験もとても気持ちよかったです!あまり運動が得意でなくてもすぐに楽しめると思うので,いろんな人にオススメしたいです!

The weather forecast had predicted thunderstorms on the day of our activity, which made me quite worried. However, we received a message the day before suggesting, "How about we move the meeting time up by an hour since the waves will be high in the afternoon?" This allowed us to enjoy the experience until the end!
It's reassuring to leave things to the sea professionals for a safe and enjoyable time.
On the day of the activity, we gathered at the Imugya parking lot, where three groups, including ours, participated. One group chose SUP while another opted for canoeing. I fell into the sea early on during SUP (laughs), but the instructors provided tips on how to stand, and by the end, I was able to paddle while standing.
We then moved to Shinjo Beach for snorkeling. Since we wore life jackets and fins, I felt safe even though I couldn't swim well. The instructor pointed out where to find clownfish and helped us look for sea turtles, showing great care for the participants, which made it enjoyable. I was thrilled to see three sea turtles at once!
The photos taken by the instructor captured both the sea turtles and us perfectly! They took many pictures, creating wonderful memories!
I would love to request this experience again when I visit Miyako Island! Thank you very much!
天気予報ではアクティビティの日は雷雨の予報でとても心配でしたが、前日の集合場所連絡で「午後は波が高いから集合時間を1時間早めませんか?」という提案をいただき、最後まで楽しむことができました!
やはり海のプロにお任せすると安心安全に楽しめます。
当日はイムギャー駐車場に集合で私たちも含めて3組が参加していて、私たちともう1組はSUP、1組はカヌーを選択していました。
SUPでは早々に海に落ちましたが(笑)、立ち方のコツなど随時指摘していただけて最後は立って漕げるようになりました。
場所を新城海岸に移動してシュノーケルをやりました。
ライブジャケットとフィンを付けるので泳げなくても多分大丈夫です。
インストラクターさんにクマノミの場所を教えてもらったり、ウミガメを探してくれたり、参加者のことを気にかけてくれたので楽しめました。
ウミガメが3匹同時に見れたのはとても嬉しかったです!
インストラクターさんが撮ってくれた写真にはウミガメと私たちがばっちり写っていました!

Initially, I was scheduled to go to Balas Island, but due to weather conditions, it was changed to caving and canyoning. The mangroves were breathtaking. I was truly moved. Canyoning was a bit scary, but I was able to fully enjoy the great outdoors, something I don't experience in my daily life. The guide was fun and interesting, and the photos they took were all wonderful.
However, due to the state of emergency, most of the recommended shops were closed during the day, which was disappointing. I think it would be very helpful if you could do some research in advance.
当初バラス島に行く予定でしたが、天候の影響によりケービングとキャニオニングに変更になりました。マングローブは圧巻でした。感動しました。キャニオニングは少し怖かったですが、日常で味わうことのない大自然を満喫できました。ガイドの方が楽しく面白く説明してくださり、撮ってくださった写真も素晴らしいものばかりでした。
ただ、緊急事態宣言下ということもあり、昼にお勧めして頂いたお店がほとんど閉まっており、残念でした。事前に調査して頂けるととても助かると思います。

I participated in a day trip from Ishigaki Island. The waves were calm, and the boat ride was hardly shaky, which heightened my expectations for snorkeling at Barasu Island. Upon arriving at the Uehara Port on Iriomote Island, I quickly met up with the tour guide. Due to the tides, we were scheduled to visit Barasu Island in the morning and go mangrove canoeing in the afternoon. I borrowed the necessary equipment and boarded the boat. Onboard, the guide carefully explained how to use the equipment, making it easy for beginners to understand. After about ten minutes, we arrived at Barasu Island. Unfortunately, the island was not visible above the water that day, but the shallow waters reached up to my knees, and I could really feel that this was Barasu Island. We then began snorkeling. The water was very clear, and I was able to see colorful fish gathered around the coral reefs. Additionally, I was lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle while it was feeding. After finishing snorkeling, we returned to Uehara Port for lunch. We ate at a diner near the port and prepared for the canoe tour. After a short drive, the canoe tour began. Guided by our guide's thorough explanations, we paddled up the Kura River. The guide provided insights about the flora and fauna along the way, which was very educational. After paddling for a while, we got out of the canoe and walked to Kura Falls. Although the temperature exceeded 30 degrees Celsius, the area around the waterfall felt refreshing and cool. It was a fantastic experience to enjoy both the sea and mountains of Iriomote Island in one day.
石垣島からの日帰りで参加しました。波は穏やかで行きの船もほとんど揺れず、バラス島シュノーケリングへの期待が高まります。西表島上原港に到着すると、さっそくツアーガイドの方と合流。この日は潮の関係で午前中にバラス島、午後にマングローブカヌーとのこと。早速道具一式をお借りして船に乗り込みます。船上では道具の付け方など丁寧に説明していただき、初心者でもすぐ理解することができました。10分ほどでバラス島に到着。この日はあいにく海面に島は出ていませんでしたが、膝くらいまでの浅瀬になっており、ここがバラス島なのだと実感が湧きました。そこからシュノーケルを開始。海はとても透明度が高く、サンゴ礁に集うカラフルな魚たちを見ることができました。また、運よく食事中のウミガメにも遭遇できました。シュノーケルを終えると、いったん上原港に戻り昼食です。港近くの食堂で食べ、カヌーツアーに備えます。その後、少し車で移動し、カヌーツアーがスタート。ガイドさんの丁寧な案内のもとクーラ川を上っていきます。都度動植物の解説をしてくださり、とても勉強になりました。ある程度上り終わると、カヌーを降りて歩きでクーラの滝へ。気温は30度を超えていましたが、滝の周りは清涼感があり、とても涼しく感じました。1日で西表島の海と山の魅力をどちらも体感でき、最高の体験となりました。

I was able to experience the unique mangrove forests of Iriomote Island through kayaking and stand-up paddleboarding, as well as trekking to appreciate the abundant nature of the island. If I had gone to Iriomote Island on my own without participating in such a tour, I wouldn't have felt that connection to nature. I was also thrilled to go snorkeling at Barasu Island, which I had longed to visit. This is definitely a place you can't easily reach on your own. The tour fees were quite high, but it was worth it. If I could wish for more, I would have liked to try free diving at Barasu (laughs).
西表島ならではのマングローブ林カヤックやSUP,、トレッキングで西表島の溢れる自然を確認できました。このようなツアーに参加せず個人で西表島に行ってもそんな自然は感じられなかったでしょう。 そしてバラス島に憧れていたのでシュノーケリングできて嬉しかったです。 これも個人ではまず行けないところです。 ツアー代金はけっこうかかりますがその価値はありました。 欲を言えばバラスで素潜りしたかった(笑)

I participated in a plan that included a limestone cave, SUP, and canyoning. Initially, the plan was to land on Barasu Island, but due to weather conditions, it was changed to canyoning.
I was a bit anxious since I had never done SUP before, but I was able to paddle happily without falling, even as a beginner! The guide taught us various things about the unique nature of Iriomote Island, including insects, lizards, flowers, and trees, which was very meaningful.
Canyoning involved diving into waterfalls, swimming, and sliding down, which was scary but felt amazing! You will basically get wet! I recommend using a waterproof camera. However, the guide took plenty of photos and sent the data on the same day, so it was all good.
鍾乳洞&SUP&キャニオニングのプランに参加しました。当初、バラス島上陸のプランでしたが、天候の都合によりキャニオニングに変更になりました。
SUPはやったことがなかったので不安だったのですが、初心者でも落ちることなく楽しく漕ぐことができました!虫やトカゲ、花や木など西表島固有の自然のこともガイドさんに色々教えていただき有意義でした。
キャニオニングは滝つぼにダイブしたり、泳いだり、滑り台をしたり、怖かったけどすごく気持ちよかったです!
基本的に水に濡れます!カメラは防水をオススメします。でも、ガイドさんがたくさん撮ってくれて、当日中にデータを送ってくれたので大丈夫でした。

I participated with two friends as a final memory of my 50s. It was my first experience with stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and I was able to stand up and paddle through a river lined with mangroves. Along the way, we went trekking and explored the jungle while wading up to our waists! I also saw the "sagaribana," which can only be seen once a year, for the first time. At the Kuura Falls, I was able to recharge my energy. Our guide was kind and interacted with us, who were moving at a slower pace, with a smile while explaining various things as we progressed.
Snorkeling at Balas Island was also wonderful; we enjoyed the beautiful sea with coral and tropical fish, and we even encountered a turtle. It was definitely an experience worth having at least once in a lifetime.
50代最後の思い出にと女子3人で参加しました。
初めてのSUP体験でしたが立つこともできマングローブの生い茂る川を進み、途中トレッキングで腰まで浸かりながらジャングル探検!年に一度しか見れない「サガリバナ」も初めて見ました。クーラ滝ではいっぱいパワーチャージできました。ガイドさんも親切でペースの遅い私たちにも笑顔で接し色々説明しながら進んでくれました。
バラス島でのシュノーケリングも綺麗な海で珊瑚や熱帯魚を満喫し、亀にも出会えました。人生一度は体験する価値ありでした。

I was nervous about whether I could ride a SUP for the first time, but thanks to the instructor's clear explanations and support, I was able to stay on without falling even once! The instructor was friendly, easy to talk to, and funny, making the experience very enjoyable. The sea was a bit rough, so we couldn't go too far, but I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery and the ocean. I would like to try again when the sea is calm!
In the afternoon, I was taken to a very beautiful snorkeling spot where I saw sea turtles multiple times. We took a lot of photos, creating wonderful memories.
はじめてのSUPで、うまく乗ることができるか不安でしたがインストラクターの方のわかりやすい説明とサポートのおかげで一度も落ちずに乗れました!インストラクターの方は気さくで話しやすくおもしろい方でとても楽しく体験することができました。少し海が荒れていて、遠くまでは行けませんでしたが、綺麗な景色と海を堪能できました。また海の穏やかなときに再チャレンジしたいです!
午後はシュノーケリングでとてもきれいなスポットへ連れて行っていただき何度も海ガメに会えました。写真もたくさん撮っていただき、よい思い出になりました。

The day before was cloudy, so I had almost given up on the shoot being postponed. I was anxious about the weather on the day itself, but I was moved by the stunning starry sky that exceeded my expectations. It was the first time I could see the Milky Way so clearly. The photographer was also a wonderful person, playing music during the shoot and providing kind support, making it a fun time. Thank you very much.
前の日は曇りだったので撮影が延期になってほぼ諦めていた状況でした。
当日のお天気も不安でしたが、期待以上の満点の星空で感動しました。
こんなに天の川がはっきりと見えたのは初めてでした。
カメラマンさんも素敵な方で、撮影中も音楽を流して下さったり、優しい対応で楽しい時間でした。
ありがとうございました。

At first, I was a little scared to dive into the sea, but thanks to the kind and fun guidance, I was able to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind. I was able to see many sea turtles, and it was moving to swim not only with the turtles but also with the fish. The sea and the coral were very beautiful, and it felt great to swim. I was happy to receive many photos that were taken and sent to me. It became a wonderful time that will remain as a memory of our honeymoon. Thank you very much.
初めは海に潜るのも少し怖かったのですが、親切に楽しく教えていただき、安心してシュノーケリングを楽しめました。
ウミガメもたくさん見ることができましたし、カメだけでなく魚たちとも一緒に泳げて感動しました。
海もサンゴもとても綺麗で、泳いでいて気持ち良かったです。
写真もたくさん撮って送ってくださり、嬉しかったです。
ハネムーンの思い出に残る素敵な時間になりました。
ありがとうございました。
Thank you for participating in the Miyako Island ADVENTURE PiPi tour!
I'm glad we were able to have the tour with good weather and high underwater visibility, even though the rainy season hasn't ended yet. ✨ During the snorkeling, there were more sea turtles than usual, and I was really happy to see the two of you swimming so closely with them.
この度は宮古島ADVENTURE PiPiのツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございます!
まだ梅雨明けしてない中で天気に恵まれ海中の透明度も高いなかツアーができてよかったです✨
シュノーケルではウミガメもいつもより沢山いてくれて、とても仲良くウミガメと泳いでいるお2人を見て私も嬉しかったです

I participated with my 4-year-old child. I think it was the right decision to join this tour since we couldn't explore with a rental bike with a small child. The glass-bottom boat, water buffalo, and star sand made my child very happy. When my child gets older, I would like to take my time exploring with a rental bike next time.
4歳の子と参加しました。
小さな子連れだとレンタサイクルでまわることはできないので、こちらのツアーに参加して正解だったと思います。
グラスボート、水牛、星の砂と子どもも喜んでいました。
子どもが大きくなったら、つぎはレンタサイクル等でゆっくりまわりたいと思います。

Due to poor sea conditions on the day, we were unable to go to Barasu Island, so we received a refund of 3,000 yen and instead participated in the SUP and cave tour. The SUP was difficult to balance on, and I capsized several times, but once I got used to it, I was able to paddle and enjoyed it. The cave exploration introduced on Itte Q had some formations that showed how stalactites are formed, which was great. On the way to the cave, there was a tunnel where the Iriomote cat passes through.
当日の海のコンディションが悪く、バラス島に行くことができなかったため、3000円返金となり、SUPと洞窟ツアーになりました。SUPは、バランスをとるのが難しく、何度も転覆しましたが、慣れると漕げるようになって楽しめました。イッテQで紹介された洞窟散策は、鍾乳石できるようすがわかるものがあり、よかったです。洞窟に行く途中に、イリオモテヤマネコが通るトンネルがありました。

It was amazing. I think I'm going to get hooked on SUP. There were moments when I felt really close to nature. They also took a lot of wonderful photos, and I'm very satisfied.
最高すぎました。サップにハマりそうです。すごく自然を近くに感じる瞬間もありました。
素敵な写真もいっぱい撮ってくださって、大満足です。

I used this activity as my main event during my first visit to Okinawa. I was a bit anxious because I wasn't confident in my swimming skills, but thanks to the guidance from the instructor, I was able to enjoy snorkeling in the stunning scenery of Barasu Island and even had the luck of encountering a sea turtle.
In the afternoon, we explored the mangroves with kayaking and trekking. Since we were the only participants due to the timing, we were able to enjoy it thoroughly. I also learned that there is a night plan for stargazing available for those staying on Iriomote Island, and I would like to experience that next time.
I visited Okinawa to enjoy the extraordinary and nature, and thanks to this activity, I was able to create even more wonderful memories. Thank you very much.
初めての沖縄でメインのアクティビティとして利用させていただきました。
泳ぎに自信がなく不安もありましたが、ガイドさんにレクチャーいただきバラス島の絶景の中、安心してシュノーケリングを楽しむことができ、運良くウミガメにも遭遇できました。
午後はカヤック・トレッキングでマングローブを散策しました。
時期をずらしたこともあり我々だけの参加者でしたのでたっぷり楽しむことができました。
西表島の宿泊者であれば星空を眺めるナイトプランもあるとのことで、次回はそちらも体験したいと思いました。
非日常、自然を味わうために沖縄を訪れましたがこのアクティビティのおかげでより一層いい思い出を作ることができました。
ありがとうございました。
