Okinawa
I saw a whale! Just a few glimpses of its back. However, it seems that it's difficult to spot them during this season, and there was quite a bit of time spent searching for the whales. The waves were also high (according to the captain, the sea was calm that day), so about one-third of the people couldn't see the whale due to seasickness.
くじら、見えました!背中を数回ですが。
ただ、時期的に見つけるのは難しいらしく、クジラを探している時間がけっこうあり、波も高い(船長さん曰く当日の海は穏やかだったそうです)ので、1/3ぐらいの人は船酔いでクジラを見ることはできなかったようです。
The mangrove boat tour, the water buffalo cart, and cycling around Taketomi Island were all very interesting. I think I enjoyed them more in a shorter time than if I had explored on my own. However, it was rainy and windy all day, and it was a coldness that you wouldn't expect in Okinawa. I believe I could have enjoyed it more if the weather had been better.
マングローブのボートも 水牛 車も、 竹富島のサイクリングも どれも とても面白かった。 個人で回るよりも 短い時間でたのしめたと思う。 でも1日中 雨風が強く、 沖縄とは思えない寒さ だった。 天気がよければ もっと楽しめたと思う。
The guide's assistance was very good.
The butterfly garden, pineapple park, and glass factory tour were not that great.
I participated in the tour with a 2-year-old, and I thought I might be able to use a seat for free, but despite it being an off-season weekday, it was crowded, and I had to hold my child. It was tough. I regretted not reserving a seat for the toddler.
ガイドさんの案内はとてもよかったです。
ツアーの蝶々園、パイナップルパーク、ガラスの見学はイマイチでした。
2歳児を連れてのツアー参加でしたが、無料であわよくば席が使えるかも?なんて思ってましたが、オフシーズン平日にもかかわらず、混んであり、抱っこで乗車。きつかったです。幼児席を予約しておけばよかったと後悔しました。
The tour price at 4,700 yen with all entrance fees inclusive plus one free meal is unbeatable. What was unexpected was a free glassware gift and pineapple ice cream! I do recommend the tour to my friends. However, the GPS-guide device does not work well at all. Although it comes with English, Chinese, or Korean, the recordings are only listenable intermittently, which may prevent international travelers from enjoying the journey in full.

I'm really glad I was able to make a reservation despite the last-minute application! I was worried because it was cloudy in the morning, but the cave was incredibly mystical! I definitely want to go snorkeling again!
前日の申し込みにもかかわらず予約が取れたので本当によかったです!
当日は朝から曇りで心配だったのですが、洞窟の中はとっても神秘的でした!
ぜひまたシュノーケルをしたいです!
Dear MIHO,
Thank you for participating in the tour.
I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed it, especially since the underwater scenery is vibrant and beautiful even on cloudy days.
Next time, how about trying snorkeling or an introductory diving experience? We look forward to your next visit.
MIHO様
この度はツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございます。
曇りの日でも海の中はとても色鮮やかでキレイなので特に天候は気にせず楽しんで頂けてよかったです。
次回はシュノーケルも体験ダイビングもチャレンジされてみてはいかかでしょうか。また来られる日を楽しみにお待ち致しておりますね。
I highly recommend this for those who enjoy clay crafts and sculptures. During less busy times, the staff will teach you carefully. When it gets crowded, it seems they show a DVD for explanations. There isn't much difference in color after firing. The packaging for shipping was also done carefully.
粘土細工や彫刻が好きな方には是非お勧めです。空いている時間帯だと係の方が丁寧に教えてくれます。混雑してくると説明用のDVDを見せているみたいでした。焼いた後も色の違いはあまりありません。郵送の梱包も丁寧でした。
We did everything from shaping to painting as a pair!
I was a bit anxious about how it would turn out since we did everything from shaping to painting, but it ended up being a pair of shisa that really reflects our mother-daughter style.
2人で一対を焼きから絵付けまで、やりました!
形作りから絵付けまでだったので、どうなるのか不安でしたが、なんかわたち親子らしいペアのシーサーになりました。
I was glad to encounter five whales and see them up close until the end. The dive's tail fin was beautiful. The rain forecast was wrong, and the afternoon downpour waited for us, making it the best whale watching experience. As expected, the skills were top-notch, and thanks to that, I was able to create the best memories.
5匹のクジラに出合えて、最後までまじかで見れてよかった。ダイブの尾びれもビューテフル
雨の予報も外れて、午後のスコールも待ってくれて、最高のホイールウオッチングでした。さすが自負するだけの腕は最高、お陰様で最高の思い出作れました。
Since I was in Okinawa, just sightseeing was nice, but I thought it might be good to create something and have an experience, so I participated. I had previously made Ryukyu glass, but this time making a Shisa was very satisfying because I could experience everything from kneading the clay myself to coloring it! Although my creation wasn't perfect, it was great that the whole family could easily enjoy it together! The location is also close to Nago city, so it's recommended as a stopover while visiting somewhere else! I was also happy that I could take it home right away! Thank you very much!
折角の沖縄なので観るだけの観光もいいけれど、何かを作って体験してみるのも良いかも!?と思い参加しました。以前、琉球グラスも作ったことはありましたが、今回のシーサー作りは、粘土を自分で捏ねるところから、色付けまですべて体験できたので大満足でした!自分のデキはイマイチとして、家族みんなで手軽に楽しめたので良かった!場所も名護市街から近いので、何処かのついでに寄ることもできるのでオススメですね〜!その場で持ち帰ることが出来るのも嬉しい!ありがとうございました〜!
We visited Ishigaki Island for a 2-night, 3-day trip with our family of four. On the first and third days, we used a rental car to explore Ishigaki Island. On the second day, we participated in a three-island tour. There was also a shuttle service between the port and the hotel, which made my husband very happy as he could enjoy some drinks. I heard that the best season is until the rainy season starts in May, and we were lucky with the weather. During the Iriomote Island mangrove cruise, we encountered a crowned eagle, which was very exciting. The water buffalo cart on Yubu Island is especially recommended. We sang along while listening to the sanshin. (I heard some guides can't play, though! Haha.) On Taketomi Island, we chose a glass-bottom boat. The coral reef at a depth of 10 meters was beautiful. The weather on the islands can change quickly, and the forecasts are often inaccurate. It's important to prepare for the heat, and a windbreaker parka is essential. I forgot mine, so I bought a parka at Shimamura in Ishigaki on the first day. (Haha.)
2泊3日の予定で家族4人で石垣島を訪れました。初日と3日目はレンタカーを利用して石垣島観光。2日目に3島めぐりコースに参加しました。港とホテル間の送迎もあり、主人はアルコールも飲めるとご満悦。梅雨入りの5月までがベストシーズンと伺い天気にも恵まれラッキーでした。西表島マングローブクルーズでは、かんむり鷲に遭遇して大興奮。由布島の水牛車は特におすすめです。三線を聞きながら一緒に口ずさみました。(弾けないガイドさんもいるらいしですが 笑 )竹富島ではグラスボートを選択。水深10mの深さのサンゴ礁がきれいでした。島の天候は変わりやすく天気予報も当たらないことが多いそうです。暑さ対策も必要ですが、風よけパーカーは必需品です。忘れたため、初日に石垣島しまむらでパーカー買いました。(笑)
We traveled to Okinawa as a family of four. The kids wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium, so I did some research and found the Family Line and quickly made a reservation. However, on February 15, there was heavy snow in the Kanto region, and we couldn't leave our house. Transportation was paralyzed, and flights were canceled, so we postponed to March. We canceled all our reservations, and I was happy that Alan1 quickly handled the cancellations. For our rescheduled trip in March, we applied for the same course. The guide from Rad Tourism was excellent. I appreciated the pick-up from the nearby hotel, and the fun guide made the entire day's trip enjoyable. We encountered beautiful butterflies, stunning flowers, and wonderful fish, making it a tour that left us 150% satisfied.
家族4人で沖縄へ。美ら海水族館へ子供達が行きたいというので調べたらファミリー号が見つかり早速予約。ところが2月15日は関東地方大雪で、家から出られず、交通機関も麻痺、飛行機も飛ばず3月へ延期。すべての予約をキャンセル、alan1もすばやくキャンセル対応してくれうれしかった。3月振り替え旅行。同じコースを申し込んだ。ラド観光のガイドさんは非常によかった。近くのホテルへのピックアウトもうれしいが、楽しいガイドで1日の旅全体を楽しめた。美しい蝶、美しい花、素晴らしい魚たちと出会え150%満足できたツアーでした。
Thank you very much for enjoying our bus tour. We are very pleased that our guide was able to provide you with great hospitality. We look forward to serving you again next time. Thank you!
この度は弊社のバスツアーを満喫して頂き大変ありがとうございます。
ガイドもお客様をおもてなし出来たこと大変うえれしく思っております。次回また機会がございましたらご利用お待ちしております。
ありがとうございました!
My husband and I had some time off together, so we decided to take a spontaneous 2-night, 3-day trip. Since it was our first visit, we joined this tour.
Iriomote Island was at high tide, and we were able to go all the way to the Sakishima Suo tree on the mangrove cruise along the Nakama River. The bus ride from Ohara Port to Yufu Island was quick, thanks to the driver's entertaining explanations and folk songs.
On Yufu Island, we took a water buffalo cart pulled by the oldest buffalo, "Yuta," and enjoyed a leisurely ride while listening to the sanshin. On the way back, we rode with the younger buffalo, "Genki," and quickly reached the shore. It was fun to learn about the buffalo's personalities.
On Taketomi Island, we chose a bus tour and a water buffalo cart. The buffalo "Yui" skillfully navigated the narrow roads while considering the turning radius, and we were able to relax while being soothed by the sound of the sanshin played by our guide.
I highly recommend this for first-time visitors and those with limited time.
旦那と休みが合い,急きょ2泊3日の弾丸で行くことになりました。
初めて訪れるので,このツアーに参加しました。
西表島はちょうど満潮で仲間川のマングローブクルーズでは
サキシマスオウノキまで行くことができました。
大原港から由布島までのバスの送迎も運転手さんの楽しい説明や民謡で
あっという間でした。
由布島の水牛車は,一番年上の水牛「由太」君で,のんびり三線を
聞きながら向かいました。帰りは若い水牛の「元気」君であっという間に
岸に着きました。水牛の性格もわかって楽しかったです。
竹富島ではバス観光と水牛車を選択しましたが,水牛の「結」君が狭い道を
内輪差を考えながら上手に曲がり,また担当のお兄さんの三線の音に癒されながら
のんびり過ごすことができました。
初めて訪れる人,時間のない人にはおススメです。
We were blessed with great weather and calm waves, making it the perfect conditions to encounter whales multiple times. We were able to see performances like spouting and tail slapping, and the breach where the whale jumps with its body out of the water was particularly impressive. I think we were lucky to witness something that is not often seen. Unfortunately, I couldn't take good photos, so I would like to find another opportunity to go again.
お天気にも恵まれ、波も穏やかで絶好のコンディションの中、何度もクジラに出会うことができました。潮吹きやテイルスラップなどのパフォーマンスも見られ、なかでも上体を水面に出してジャンプするブリーチは大迫力でした。なかなか見られないものとのことで、ラッキーだったと思います。残念ながらうまく写真を撮ることができなかったので、また機会を見つけて行きたいです。
Thank you for your message! We're very happy to hear that you enjoyed your experience. It's truly rare to see such a variety of performances. Since these are creatures of nature, each sighting is different, but it sounds like you had a fantastic day! Capturing them in photos can be quite challenging. We hope you'll come back next time to get some amazing shots!
メッセージありがとうございます♪
楽しんでいただけたようで、私共スタッフもとても嬉しいです♪
なかなか色んなパフォーマンスを見れるって本当に貴重です
大自然の生き物ですし、毎回見えj方はさまざまですが、この日は大当たりでしたね♪
写真に写そうと思うと、本当難しいんですよね
また次回、素晴らしいショットがおさめられるようリベンジしに来て下さいね♪
I didn't have a driver's license in Okinawa and was planning to travel by bus, but I'm really glad I found this bus tour package. There's no waiting time for the bus, so it's very time-efficient.
沖縄では免許を持ってなくてバスで旅行するつもりでしたが、このバス旅行商品があって本当によかったと思います。バスを待つ時間などがなくて、時間的にすごくお得です。
I couldn't find them for the first hour and was about to give up when, surprisingly, two appeared. Moreover, they were a couple on a date! Luckily, the whales even jumped sideways like a bridge, and I could clearly see their white bellies. There were three other boats, but this one was the best! That's because we were allowed to sit at the front deck, which was incredibly thrilling!
However, be careful with the payment! Most people paid in cash on-site, but if you book here, you pay by credit card, so it's best to double-check on-site. The receptionist told me that the reservation for Alan1 was also cash payment on-site, so I paid in cash. Later, when I showed the confirmation of the credit card payment on my phone, the cash I paid was refunded. Be cautious of double payments!
最初の1時間あまり見つけなかったので、諦めたところ、なんと2頭も現れました。しかもカップルでデート中だそうです。ラッキーなことに、鯨が橋のように横ジャンプもしてくれて、白いお腹もはっきりと見えました。他3艘の船も有ったが、この船が一番よかったです!なぜなら、先頭の甲板に座らせてもらえますので、迫力がすごすぎます!
ただ、支払いは気をつけた方がいいです!他の方はほとんど現地で現金払いだったのですが、ここで予約するとクレジットで払うので、現地で再確認した方がいいです。受付の人にはAlan1の予約も現地現金払いと言われて、そのまま現金で払いましたが、後で携帯でクレジットカードの支払い確認を見せたら、払った現金が戻ってきました。二重払いには要注意です。
Since we didn't rent a car, I participated with my elderly mother. The deciding factor for our booking was the shuttle service to our hotel. The itinerary felt a bit too packed, and I wish we could have spent more time at the Churaumi Aquarium. However, thanks to the consideration of our guide and driver for my mother, who uses a cane, we were able to keep up with the long tour until the end. We were also blessed with good weather, which allowed us to create wonderful memories.
レンタカーを借りなかったため、年老いた母と2人で参加しました。
宿泊しているホテルまで送迎していだだけるのが申し込みの決め手になりました。
内容的には、ちょっと詰め込み過ぎ感もあり、もう少しちゅら海水族館での滞在時間を増やして欲しいなぁと。
ただ、ガイドさんやドライバーさんが杖を使っている母に配慮してくださったお陰で
長丁場の観光もどうにか最後までついていくことができました。
お天気にも恵まれて、いい想い出作りが出来ました。
It was closer than I imagined, and I was really excited for the first time in a while! The staff were kind and created a fun atmosphere, making it a wonderful memory! I highly recommend it! ☆
想像以上に近くて、久々にテンションあがりました!!
スタッフの方々も親切で楽しい雰囲気をつくってくださり、とても良い思い出になりました!
オススメです☆
I participated on a weekday in late February. There were very few people, allowing me to slowly enjoy the beautiful scenery inside the cave. The blue color of the cave was even more stunning than I had imagined, and I was very moved. The staff were also very kind, and after the tour, I received a CD-R with photos, which I felt was a great value for the price. The water was a bit cold at first, but you quickly get used to it, and since you're constantly moving, I think the cold is manageable. I definitely want to experience it again! 😊
2月下旬の平日に参加させてもらいました。とても人が少なく、洞窟内の美しい景色をゆっくり堪能することが出来ました。
洞窟内の青さは、想像以上に綺麗で、とても感動しました。
お店の方もとても親切で、ツアー後には写真が入ったCD-Rを頂き、安い上に充実した内容だなと感じました。
海に入った最初は少し寒いですが、すぐに慣れますし、体をずっと動かすので、寒さは大丈夫だと思います。
またぜひ体験しに行きたいです(^^)
Dear Orisa,
Thank you for participating in the tour. Compared to summer, the water temperature is cold, but the clarity is much better in winter, and there are fewer people, allowing you to enjoy it at a leisurely pace.
When you come to Okinawa again, please be sure to have fun at Adventure Island!
おりさ様
この度はツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございます。夏に比べ水温は寒いですが、透明度は冬の方がとてもきれいで人も少なくゆっくり満喫できますね。
また沖縄に来た際は是非冒険島で遊んで行って下さいね。
とても良い選択!良い~~~~良い!!!!良い~~~~~良い良い良い良い
very good chiose! good~~~~good!!!!good~~~~~good good good good
■Participants: 0-year-old, 4-year-old, mother
■Fees: Adult 3,800 yen, Child 1,000 yen
■Positive Points
- Suitable for 0-year-olds
- Hotel shuttle bus available
- Children's captain experience (the 4-year-old boy was delighted)
- Consideration for children's seating positions
■Negative Points
- Other guests fell due to the ship's rocking (I would like to request prior guidance and caution)
I saw whales about three times from a distance. This is just luck, so it can't be helped.
My mother (who usually doesn't get motion sickness) was feeling exhausted from seasickness in the second half, but the 4-year-old was energetic. The 0-year-old was seated in a stroller wrapped in a life jacket, sleeping without crying.
■参加者:0歳児、4歳児、母
■料金:大人3800円 幼児1000円
■良かった点
・0歳児でも参加可能
・ホテル送迎バスあり
・子供の船長体験(4歳男児が喜んでいた)
・子供の座る位置が考慮されていた
■悪かった点
・船の揺れで他の客が倒れてきた(事前の指導や注意をお願いしたいです)
くじらは3回ほど遠くに見えました。これは運なので仕方ないですね。
母(普段乗り物酔いはしない方のはず)は船酔いで後半ぐったりしていましたが、4歳児は元気でした。0歳児は救命具に包まれた状態でベビーカーに座り、泣くことも無く寝ていました。
First, we took a tour of the mangrove forest along the Nakama River in Iriomote Island. There was a stop where we could get off the boat to explore. Surprisingly, there was quite a bit of wind on the boat, so a light jacket or a shawl comes in handy. After disembarking, we headed to Yubu Island while enjoying the relaxed natural scenery of the island from the bus window.
After crossing the sea to Yubu Island by water buffalo cart, we had free time on the island, but be sure to listen carefully for the meeting time and the number of the return water buffalo cart. It can get crowded, and if you miss your ride, you might have to walk back the same way as the water buffalo... (laughs)
On Yubu Island, during our free time, we had lunch individually, and the tour included a bento box featuring local Okinawan specialties. At the entrance of the same lunch venue, there are options for soba and soft serve ice cream, so if you want a warm meal, you can purchase it yourself.
From the Manta Hill in the park, you can access the sandy beach, so definitely stretch your legs and head to the coast!
We returned to Iriomote Island by water buffalo cart and then moved to our final destination, Taketomi Island, by boat. I chose the water buffalo cart tour for the activity, and for some reason, the water buffalo had an adorable charm that was hard to resist!
Swaying in the water buffalo cart while listening to traditional songs allowed me to completely forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life, and I had the best time.
まずは西表島でマングローブ林の仲間川遊覧をしました。途中船を降りての見学もあります。船では意外と風があったので、羽織れる上着やストールなどが重宝します。下船後は、バスで島のゆったりとした自然を車窓から眺めながら、由布島へ向かいます。
水牛車で海を渡って由布島に行ったあとは、島内では自由行動ができますが、集合時間と復路の水牛車の番号をしっかり聞き逃さないようにしてください。混み合っているので、乗り遅れると、水牛と同じ道を徒歩で戻ることになるかもです…(笑)
由布島では、自由行動時間の間に昼食を各自とるのですが、ツアー付帯の昼食は沖縄の特産品が折り込まれたお弁当でした。同じ昼食会場の入り口には、そばやソフトクリームがあるので温かい食事をとりたいのであれば、各自で購入することも可能です。
園内にあるマンタの丘からは、砂浜に出ることができるので、是非海岸まで足を伸ばしてみたください!
再び水牛車で西表島に戻り、船にて最終目的地の竹富島に移動します。アクティビィティーは水牛車観光を選択しましたが、なぜか水牛が癖になる可愛らしさでした!
小唄を聞きながら水牛車に揺られると、完全に日常の慌ただしさを忘れることができ、最高の時間を過ごすことができました。
There are various packages available, and I think they are very reasonably priced and great. At first, I thought it might be a bit expensive, but after experiencing it, I don't think that's the case.
I was able to enjoy a lot of different things, so it was really good. It's much more economical to buy a set rather than purchasing items individually.
As a beginner in Okinawa, it was very good for me.
いろんなパックがあるけど、お手頃でとてもいいと思う。
最初は、ちょっと高いかな?と思ったけど、実際に体験するとそんなことないと思う。
いろんなものが楽しめたのでとてもよかった。
個別個別で買うよりセットなのでかなりお得です。
私は沖縄初心者だったので、とてもよかったです。
I was unable to match the originally scheduled time, but after contacting West Marine, they accommodated my request for a time change (boarding time and lunch time, etc.), which made for an enjoyable cruise. Thank you very much.
The sea conditions were not ideal. There was some murkiness and a bit of wave action, but it was still sufficient for viewing.
However, since there were many passengers, it was divided into two sessions, which may have shortened the viewing time a bit.
当初予約予定の時間に合わせることができず、ウエストマリンへ連絡調整したら、こちらの希望通りの時間変更(乗船時間、およびランチ利用時間等)に応じて貰え、楽しいクルーズになりました。 有難う御座いました。
海況は今一でした。濁りが多少あり、波っけもありでしたが、十分鑑賞はできました。
ただ、乗船人員が多く2部制となり、鑑賞時間が多少短くなったのかどうか。
Dear irukachan,
Thank you very much for participating in our cruise.
We strive to accommodate changes to the schedule to suit our customers' needs. We are delighted to hear that you were able to board at your preferred time.
As you pointed out, the Orca has a viewing room capacity of 80 people, and during busy reservations, we rely on our customers' cooperation for the operation. We sincerely appreciate your cooperation in taking turns for viewing.
Thank you also for sending us your feedback. We hope to use your comments as a reference for our future operational policies. We look forward to the opportunity for you to join our cruise again.
Sincerely,
West Marine Staff
irukachan様

2/6 ウエストマリン スタッフ一同
The day I participated, the morning course was canceled due to high waves. I joined the afternoon course, and I was able to see something, but I got really seasick and it was quite painful.
For those participating, don't forget to take measures against seasickness! And make sure to get plenty of sleep!
私が参加した日は午前中のコースが中止になるくらい波が高かったようです。
私は午後のコースに参加しましたが、何とか見ることができました。ですが、すごく船酔いをしてしまい苦しい思いをしてしまいました。
参加される方は船酔い対策を忘れずに!そして充分な睡眠を忘れなく!
I thought it would be a busy tour around the three islands, but there was plenty of time, and it was very good. I wasn't expecting much for lunch, but it was quite a delicious bento. I want to plan a trip to another island.
3島忙しく回るツアーかと思っていましたが、時間の余裕もあり、とても良かったです。
お昼も期待してませんでしたが、かなり美味しいお弁当でした。
別の島へ行く予定を立てたくなりました。
I was taken care of during the cold mid-January period. In conclusion, it was really great! I hope this review will be helpful for those planning to go in winter.
First of all, the store was very clean and stylish. There were hanger racks in the changing rooms, as well as makeup tables, hair dryers, lotions, and more... The facilities were well-equipped for women, making it very user-friendly! The guide who assisted us was also very friendly and kind. Since this tour is a private group, they take plenty of photos and provide explanations, making it a lot of fun.
We took a boat tour, so we arrived at the Blue Cave in about 5 to 10 minutes. I usually don't swim, so I was nervous about getting into the sea, but once I got in, thanks to the wetsuit, I wasn't cold, and my body floated, allowing me to enjoy it with peace of mind.
I won't go into detail about the snorkeling and the Blue Cave, but it was just so much fun! You will definitely be moved by the atmosphere and scenery that you can't experience in everyday life. Please be sure to experience it for yourself!
What I felt during this tour is that this tour in winter is a hidden gem! It's a bit cold, but there are fewer people, so you can have the Blue Cave all to yourself!
Lastly, thank you very much to all the staff! Thank you!
1月中旬の寒い時期にお世話になりました。
結論、とっても良かったです!
これから冬に行かれる方の参考になればと思い、以下レビューします^^
まず、店内がとても綺麗でお洒落☆更衣室にハンガーラックがあったり、
化粧台やドライヤー、化粧水乳液などなど…女性もすごく利用しやすいように設備が整ってました!
今回ガイドしてくれたお兄さんもとても気さくで優しい方でした♪
このツアーは1グループ貸切なので、写真もたくさんとってくれるし説明もしてくれるのでとても楽しめます。
私たちはボートで行くツアーだったので、5~10分程で青の洞窟に到着しました。
私は普段泳げないので海に入るのは緊張しましたが、入ってみるとウエットスーツをきているおかげで寒くないし、
体も浮いてくれるので、安心して楽しむことができました。
シュノーケルや青の洞窟の内容はあえて詳細には書きませんが、とにかく楽しかった!
日常では味わえない雰囲気や景色に感動すること間違いないです^^
ぜひご自身で味わってみてください☆
今回参加して感じたことは、冬の時期のこのツアーは超穴場!
ちょっと寒いけど、人も少なくて青の洞窟を独り占めできますよ~!
最後にスタッフの皆様、大変お世話になりました!ありがとうございました~☆
Dear Masha,
Thank you for participating in the tour. We are very pleased to hear that you were satisfied with the experience.
Winter is cold, but there are fewer people, and the water clarity is much more beautiful compared to summer. It truly is a hidden gem. Please consider challenging yourself again in winter!
We will continue to upgrade our services to ensure even greater satisfaction for our customers, so please do visit Adventure Island again when you come to Okinawa! ☆
ましゃ様
この度はツアーにご参加頂きありがとうございます。内容に満足して頂けた様でスタッフ一同大変嬉しく思います。
冬は寒いですが人も少ないし透明度も夏に比べとても綺麗です。ほんとに穴場ですよね。。また冬にチャレンジしてみて下さい!
お客様に更に満足して頂ける様にこれからもグレードアップしてきますのでまた沖縄に来た際は是非冒険島にいらして下さいね☆
Due to the climate, the water was murky and didn't look very beautiful. I wished I could have been taken to a place with clearer coral and a variety of fish. It was advertised as a 50-minute experience, so I thought we would be able to enjoy at least 40 minutes underwater, but we only got to see things for about 15 minutes, and the rest was just moving around, which was disappointing. However, I think it's great for those who can't snorkel or dive to experience the underwater world. (*'∀'*)
気候の影響もあって、にごっていてあまり綺麗に見えませんでした。
もっとサンゴが綺麗で、いろんな種類の魚がいる場所に連れて行って欲しかったです。
50分と書いていたので少なくとも40分くらいは水中を楽しめるかと思っていましたが、見れたのは15分程で、後は移動だけだったのが残念です。
けど、シュノーケルやダイビングができない方には水中を味わえて良いと思います(*'∀'*)
On January 2nd, we set off on our first family trip to Okinawa. We participated in a whale watching tour. The ride to the hotel was filled with excitement as we headed to the local port. However, I was honestly skeptical about whether we would actually see any whales. But... we did see them!! And a mother and calf too!! They were spouting water and jumping... it was amazing. I heard that February and March are particularly good months for whale watching, so I definitely recommend that anyone traveling to Okinawa should participate. Just a heads up, the boat does rock quite a bit, so it might be a good idea to take some motion sickness medication (laughs).
1月2日 初めての沖縄旅行に家族で出発しました。
ホエールウオッチングツアーに参加しました。
宿泊するホテルまでのお迎え⇒現地港までワクワクな気持ちでした。
でも、クジラなんて本当に見えるのか本当は半信半疑でした。
しかし・・・見えました!!それも親子!!
潮を吹き、ジャンプし・・・すごかったです。
2月3月は、特に見ごろだと聞きましたので、是非沖縄旅行をされる方は
参加されるといいと思います。
ただ、船はかなり揺れますので、酔い止め薬は飲んでいた方がよいかも(笑)
I used the service on New Year's Eve. It was stated that it would take about an hour to finish, but I got so into it that I spent almost two hours working in near silence (laughs). My husband, who is not good at crafts, also enjoyed making it, and now we have it cutely displayed at the entrance as our guardian deity☆ The baking time was only about 10 minutes, so it was great that we could take it home right away (^▽^). However, I was a bit worried that it might break easily since it was baked in just 10 minutes, but it has become a wonderful memory.
大晦日の日に利用させていただきました。
1時間くらいで仕上がると記載があったのですが、夢中になり2時間かけてほとんど無言の状態で作っていました(笑)
工作が苦手な旦那も楽しんで作ってくれて、今は玄関に守り神としてかわいく飾っています☆
焼き時間も10分もあればしてくれるのですぐに持ち帰りもできてよかったです(^▽^)ただ10分で焼き上げるのですぐに壊れてしまわないか心配ですがとってもいい思い出になりました。
We participated as a family of four on December 30. It seems that the tour hadn't been held for two weeks due to bad weather, but that day the weather was nice, and we were able to experience it. There were some waves, but the instructor skillfully pulled us with a float, allowing us to be the first to enter the cave smoothly. It was a mystical and fantastical place that is hard to express, simply beautiful!! We were able to take photos as if we had the place to ourselves, and the blue water was stunning, with many fish coming close, making it a wonderful experience. My father, who is not a good swimmer, was moved by this experience for the first time in his life. Next time, I definitely want to try diving. Thank you to all the instructors at the adventure company for the wonderful experience.
12月30日に家族4人で参加しました。2週間悪天候で催行されてなかったそうで、その日だけお天気が良くなり体験できました。波は少々あったのですが、インストラクターの方が浮き輪でうまく引っ張ってくださりスムーズに洞窟に一番乗りで入れました。何とも表現できないくらいの神秘的な幻想的な場所で、美しい!!の一言でした。貸し切りのような状態で写真を撮ることができ、とにかくブルーがきれいで、魚もたくさん寄ってきて素晴らしい体験ができました。泳ぎの苦手な父親も生まれて初めての体験に感動していました。次回は是非ダイビングに挑戦したいと思います。
冒険等のインストラクターの皆さん、素晴らしい体験をありがとうございました。
