All Reviews for 皮艇（カヤック）

My wife and I participated together.

Throughout the entire schedule, they paid close attention to the safety of the participants, allowing us to enjoy the activities with peace of mind.

I didn't feel anything negative at all!

They took a lot of photos and videos, so we could reminisce later, which greatly increased our satisfaction. Using LINE made it easy to receive the data, which was helpful.

Also, during the transportation, they chatted with us a lot, so they felt more like guides than just instructors.

They provided valuable information about the island and recommended spots, which was very helpful.

Mangrove Exploration @ SUP
Since it was early Friday morning, we were the only group. They picked us up at the hotel just after 5 AM to catch the sunrise, which was close to the summer solstice in June. The friendly instructor helped ease our nerves. It was my first time on a SUP, but they gave us a thorough lesson on how to ride, and I was happy to be able to stand up and paddle right away. We were able to witness the sunrise safely, which was a fantastic start! On the day, there were winds and waves, and I fell into the water several times, but they captured those moments, which will surely be a source of laughter.

Snorkeling & Blue Cave
We departed with four groups, including ours. The atmosphere in the vehicle during transportation was pleasant again, and the two instructors chatted a lot. Overcoming the challenging roads along the way became a good memory. They were considerate of each participant, including those who were not good at swimming or got cold during the activity, which was reassuring. They explained the characteristics of the marine creatures we encountered in an easy-to-understand way, making it enjoyable even for those who are not very knowledgeable.

The next day, we participated in activities at a sister store in Miyako Island. Thanks to the staff there, we had a very enjoyable time as well.

When I travel to Ishigaki Island again, I will definitely use this activity. Thank you for the wonderful time.

妻と2人で参加しました。

スケジュール全体を通して、参加者の安全には細かく気を配っていただけており安心してアクティビティを楽しむことができます。

マイナスに感じたことは何もなかったです！

写真や動画をたくさん撮影していただけるので、あとから思い出にひたることができ満足度がたかいです。
LINEを活用するので、データの受け取りも簡単で助かりました。

また、送迎中の車内でたくさんおしゃべりしてくださるので、インストラクターの枠にとどまらずガイドの様でもありました。

アクティビティ以外にも島のこと、おすすめスポットなど教えていただき大変参考になりました

マングローブ探検@sup
金曜日朝一ということもあり、我ら1組でした。
日の出に間に合うようにということで、夏至の近い6月は5時過ぎにホテルまで迎えに来てもらえました。
気さくなインストラクターさんだったので、緊張もほぐれました。
SUPは初めてでしたが、乗り方から丁寧にレクチャーいただきすぐに立ってこげるようになり嬉しかったです
無事に日の出を拝むことができ、大満足のスタートでした！
当日は風も波もあり何度も落水しましたが、その様子も撮影してもらえていて、笑いのネタになりそうです笑

シュノーケリング&青の洞窟
我ら含めて4組で出発。
送迎中の車内は今回も和やかな雰囲気で、インストラクターの2人がたくさんおしゃべりしてくれました。
途中の過酷な道路を攻略するのもいい思い出になりました
泳ぎが苦手な人や途中で体が冷えてしまった人など、参加者一人一人に配慮がなされていて、頼もしく、安心できました。
遭遇した海の生き物達について、特徴をわかりやすく解説してもらえました。あまり詳しくなくても楽しめます。

翌日宮古島でも姉妹店のアクティビティに参加しました。
そちらもスタッフの方々のおかげで大変楽しい時間になりました。

また石垣島に旅行する際はこちらのアクティビティを利用させていただきます。
素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

I signed up to experience the unique offerings of Ishigaki Island. It was my first time trying both SUP and snorkeling, but the instructions were thorough, and they even took photos for us, allowing us to enjoy without any worries.

I opted for a prescription snorkeling mask, and when I mentioned that my eyesight is quite poor, they prepared several options for me, so I was able to borrow a mask that fit well.

We received the photos after the activities, which made for a fun time on the flight home. I was able to fully enjoy Ishigaki Island, and it became a wonderful memory!

石垣島ならではを体験したく申し込みしました。SUPもシュノーケルも初めてでしたが、レクチャーもしっかりしてくださり、写真も取っていただけるので気兼ねなく楽しむことができました。
度付きシュノーケリングマスクをオプションで付けましたが、視力がかなり悪いことを告げたところ何点か用意していただいて無事合うマスクを借りられることができました。
写真はアクティビティが終わったあとに頂けるので帰りの飛行機で盛り上がりました。
石垣島を堪能できて、とてもいい思い出になりました！

I participated with my 80-year-old mother and my family across three generations. I was very worried due to her age, but the staff were incredibly kind, and by the end, my mother, who had been scared, enjoyed it the most. They took many photos and even drone shots, and by the end of the tour, we received edited materials, which was truly wonderful. I believe this tour company is very attentive and reassuring from start to finish. Thank you very much for this experience.

80になる母と3世代で参加しました。
高齢のためとても心配していましたが スタッフの方達がとても親切で 終わってみたら怖がっていた母が1番楽しんでいました。
写真やドローンも沢山撮って頂き ツアーが終わる頃には編集した物まで頂き本当に良かったです。
最初から最後までとても丁寧で安心出来るツアー会社さんだと思います。
今回は本当にありがとうございました。

It was my first experience with stand-up paddleboarding, and I was able to have a great time thanks to the careful instruction. They also took wonderful photos, creating the best memories.

初めてのサップ体験でしたが、丁寧に教えてくださり楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。
素敵な写真も撮っていただき最高の思い出ができました。

I had a great time operating the kayak. The sound of the water as I paddled, the chirping of the birds, and my view being at the level of the river were all wonderful. Slowly moving the kayak while looking up at the bridge was a very nice experience. The guide provided thorough explanations, and I could feel their love for plants and animals.

カヤックを操作出来て楽しかったです。
オールを漕ぐ水の音、鳥の鳴き声、目線が川の中。
橋を川から見上げゆっくりと進むカヤック。
とてもいい体験でした。
ガイドさんも丁寧な説明で、植物、動物が好きなんだなぁと感じました。

Although there was a typhoon forecast, it didn't rain in the first half, and I was able to take beautiful photos among the mangroves! In the second half, while returning, we encountered a downpour and had to paddle against the wind, but it turned out to be a fun and memorable experience, almost like taking a shower! The instructor's stories were enjoyable, and it was clear how much they love nature, which warmed my heart. It was a healing time that allowed me to forget the busy days in the city! Thank you very much.

台風予報でしたが前半は雨が降らず、綺麗なマングローブの中で写真を撮っていただきました！
後半は戻る時にスコール？で向かい風の中、シャワー浴びたみたいな中頑張って漕いだのが、逆に楽しく思い出になりました！！
インストラクターさんの話も楽しく、本当に自然が好きなんだと伝わってきて、ほっこりとしました。
都会での忙しい日々を忘れられた、癒された時間でした！
ありがとうございました。

The weather was good, although there was a bit of a strong wind on the day. The event took place at Ingyamarine Garden, which had public changing rooms and restrooms. It was my first time on a clear kayak, and I enjoyed being able to observe the underwater and seabed more than with a regular kayak, which felt very liberating. (While I was paddling hard, I didn't have much opportunity to observe the underwater details, though...) Additionally, the guide was very kind and helped me several times when it was difficult to move forward due to the strong wind.

What set this tour apart from others was the drone filming; they edited a story-driven video with music in a short amount of time, and it turned out to be quite wonderful, creating a great memory. Thank you very much.

当日は風がやや強いものの、天気は良好。
開催場所はインギャーマリンガーデンで、公共の更衣室やトイレもありました。
クリアカヤックは初めてでしたが、通常のカヤックより海中や海底が観察でき、開放感が得られ楽しかったです。（一生懸命カヤックを漕いでいる間は、あまり詳細に海中を観察する余裕はありませんが…）
また、ガイドさんが大変親切で、風が強く前に進みにくいときに何度も助けて頂きました。
他のツアーと決定的に異なる点はドローン撮影で、音楽付きのストーリー仕立ての動画を短時間の間に編集頂き、なかなか素晴らしい仕上がりで、大変いい思い出になりました。　有難うございました。

We are a couple in our fifties.
They taught us how to ride and paddle in a very detailed manner, and there were plenty of opportunities for drone and photo shoots. They also showed us spots where we could see fish. It wasn't physically demanding, and we didn't encounter any difficulties, so we had a great time.
Afterward, we received the video right away, which was wonderful and became a great memory.
I felt it was worth participating as I could enjoy the beautiful Miyako Blue and the feeling of kayaking in a seemingly deserted sea through the video multiple times.
Thank you very much!

アラフィフ夫婦の参加です
乗り方漕ぎ方など丁寧に教えてくださり、ドローン撮影や、写真撮影もたくさんで魚のいるスポットも教えてくださり、体力的にキツイこともなく、困ることもなく楽しめました
終わったあとで動画もすぐにいただいて、これがまた素敵でいい思い出になりました
キレイな宮古ブルーと誰もいないかのような海でカヤックをしている感じが動画で何度も楽しめるので参加して良かったなぁと思いました
ありがとうございました

I had a great time!
I participated on May 17 (Friday) from 15:00.
The location was Ingyamarine Garden.
I received a call about the location around 18:00 the day before.
It was my first time canoeing, but they provided a thorough explanation before we started, and there were no dangerous areas, so I really enjoyed it.
The many photos taken and the drone footage have become cherished memories, and I am very happy about that.
If I have friends traveling to Miyako Island in the future, I would definitely recommend this activity!

とっても楽しかったです！
5/17(金) 15:00〜参加しました
場所はインギャーマリンガーデン
場所の連絡は前日の18時頃、電話がありました
カヌーは初めてだったのですが始める前に丁寧に説明をしてくださいましたし危険な場所もなくとても楽しめました
たくさん撮っていただいた写真やドローンでの撮影画像も思い出深いものとなり嬉しく思います
この先宮古島へ旅する友達がいたら絶対オススメしたいアクティビティです！

I thought it was a bit expensive when I signed up, but considering the video I received at the end, it was cheap. They should promote the videos more. It was amazing!

申し込むときは少し高いと思ったが、最後に頂いた動画を考えれば安い。もっと動画推した方が良い
最高でした

I was worried about falling out or getting seasick before my first kayaking experience. However, I felt reassured when I received a prompt reply to my email (though I ended up forgetting to take my motion sickness medication).

Since it was after Golden Week, we were able to enjoy the nature of the Hija River with just two groups.

I was impressed by the instructor's knowledge of biology and plants, and the explanations were easy to understand. The other staff members were also very accommodating.

Next time, I would like to join the sunset tour!

初めてのカヤックで、乗る前まで落ちないか、酔わないかなど心配ばかりしていました。事前にメールしたところすぐに返信していただき安心することもでき（結局酔い止めを飲むのを忘れていましたが）
ＧＷ明けだったので２組だけで比謝川の自然を満喫することができました。

インストラクターの方の生物、植物などの知識にも関心し、説明もわかりやすく他のスタッフさんの対応もとても良かったです。

次回はサンセットツアーに参加したいです！

The weather was cloudy, but the scenery was beautiful and the view of the sea was clear. They took photos from sources other than the drone, and at the end, they even made a video from the photos, which made me very satisfied.

天候はくもりでしたが、景色もよく海の中もよく見えました。
ドローン以外からも写真を撮ってくれたり、終了時には写真を動画にもしてくれていてとても満足です。

I received the location details the day before the tour and experienced it at Imugya Marine Garden. I participated with my 1 year and 10-month-old child, and they provided life jackets and paddles for kids, which made the experience very reassuring.

Perhaps due to the heavy rain the night before, we didn't see many fish, but we were guided to spots where we could see clownfish and damselfish, and we were able to view them while riding in a clear kayak. We also took a lot of photos and videos, which became wonderful memories!

I was also happy to receive the photos and videos right after the tour. The drone footage, in particular, was stunning and absolutely amazing! They edited the recorded videos and photos on the spot into a one-and-a-half-minute video, which was also very well done!

ツアー前日に開催場所を連絡いただいて、イムギャーマリンガーデンで体験しました。
1歳10ヶ月の子供を連れての参加でしたが、子供用のライフジャケットやオールも準備いただけ、安心して体験できました。
前夜の大雨の影響か、魚はそこまで多くは見れませんでしたが、カクレクマノミやスズメダイ等が見れる場所を案内してもらい、クリアカヤックに乗りながら見ることができました。
写真や動画も沢山撮ってもらえて、とても良い思い出になりました！
ツアー後に写真や動画をすぐいただけたのも嬉しかったです。
なかでもドローン映像は圧巻で、最高でした！
撮影した動画や写真をその場で編集して1分半程の動画にまとめてくださり、その動画もとても良かったです！

We had a fantastic activity that was perfect for my parents in their 60s, and the whole family was very satisfied! We got to experience the beautiful scenery and ocean of Miyako Island, and at the end, we received wonderful videos and photos as a gift, which everyone loved. The guide was also very clear and attentive in their explanations, making it a memorable experience.

60代の両親を連れていけるアクティビティで、家族全員大満足でした！宮古島の綺麗な景色と海を体感できて、最後に素敵な動画・写真もプレゼントしてもらい、みんな喜んでいました。ガイドの方もわかりやすく丁寧に教えてくださり、楽しい思い出になりました。

We participated as a family, including elementary school children.
In the canoeing activity, we were taught how to paddle and navigate the course, allowing even the kids to paddle smoothly and explore the mangrove river with confidence.
During the lunch break, which lasted about an hour and a half, it would be effective to plan whether to spend time at the hotel or around the terminal, including lunch.
We swam reasonably well while snorkeling, and even those who couldn't swim much, including a child who started to tire, were able to hold onto floats and reach the Blue Cave while enjoying the colorful fish. It seemed to be a day with high water clarity, and we were able to see many fish, including clownfish, which was fantastic.
The staff were all polite and efficient, and they provided information about the highlights and dining options in Ishigaki Island, which was very pleasant.
The children, who love living creatures, were very satisfied with experiencing the nature of Ishigaki Island firsthand.
The service of taking photos at key points with a waterproof camera and sending them to participants later was also great.

小学生の子ども含む家族で参加しました。
カヌーは、漕ぎ方やコース取りを教えてもらい、子どもでもすいすい漕ぐことが出来て、安心してマングローブの川を探検出来ました。
昼休憩は、1時間半位あったので、ホテルで過ごすか、ターミナル周辺で過ごすか、ランチ含め想定しておけると、有効に過ごせると思います。
シュノーケルは、それなりに泳ぎましたが、あまり泳げない人も、途中でバテ始めた子どもも浮きに掴まらせていただいて、色とりどりの魚を眺めながら青の洞窟まで辿り着く事ができました。海の透明度が高い日だったようで、クマノミはじめたくさんの魚が見られて最高でした。
スタッフの方は皆さん丁寧でテキパキされていて、石垣島の見どころや食事どころも教えていただき、とても感じがよかったです。
生き物好きな子ども達は、石垣島の自然を肌で体験し、大満足でした。
要所要所で防水カメラで写真を撮って、後から参加者に送ってくださるサービスも良かったです。

We were able to see various creatures like crabs, gobies, and mongooses, and each time we received explanations, which made the elementary school children very satisfied. We also thoroughly enjoyed passing under the mangroves.

カニ、ハゼ、マングース等いろんな生き物に会え、その度に説明していただけ小学生の子供たちも大満足。
マングローブの下をくぐるのも大変楽しめました。

I had a great time on my first mangrove kayak tour! The explanations from the tour instructor were interesting!

初めてのマングローブカヤックとても楽しかったです！
ツアーのインストラクターの方の説明が面白かったです！

We went canoeing! Since we were able to paddle slowly, we could also take our time to look at the water! I was torn between stand-up paddleboarding and canoeing, but I think choosing canoeing was the right decision! We were able to see fish like Nemo, as well as many other fish and coral, which made for great memories! The people on stand-up paddleboards looked like they were having fun too, so honestly, I think you can enjoy either option! The sunlight was very strong, so sunscreen is a must! The staff were very kind, lending waterproof cases for phones and taking pictures for us! I definitely want to go again when I visit Miyako Island! It was a wonderful experience that made me feel this way!

私たちはカヌーに乗りました！
ゆっくり漕ぐことができたので水の中もゆっくり見ることができました！サップと悩んだのですがカヌーして正解だと思いました！
ニモみたいな魚、他にも沢山の魚、サンゴを見ることが出来たので思い出になりました！
サップに乗ってる人達も楽しそうだったので正直どっちに乗っても楽しめると思います！
日光はとても強かったので日焼け止めは必須です！
携帯の防水ケースの貸し出しをしていたり、写真を撮ってくれたりでスタッフの方々はとても親切な方々でした！
また宮古島にきた際は行きたい！そう思わせてもらえる優雅な時間でした!

On the day of the tour, there was a heavy rain forecast from the day before, so I thought it would surely be canceled. However, miraculously, it stopped just 30 minutes before we started!

The location was not revealed until the day before, but since Miyako Island is small, I think any beach would be relatively close. That day, we were at Ingyamarine Garden.

Even though the rain had stopped, it was still cloudy, so we couldn't see much underwater from the clear kayak, but the water was very clear, and we could see fish just by looking down! The staff also provided detailed information about spots with tropical fish.

Additionally, the staff took many photos for us, so we were happy to have lots of pictures that we wouldn't have been able to take ourselves. At the end of the tour, we received an edited video and photos mixed together, taken with a drone, and I was amazed by the high quality!

I would love to try again on a sunny day.

ツアー当日は前日から大雨予報で、きっとこれは中止だろうと思っていましたが、開始30分前に奇跡的にやんで決行！

開催場所は前日までわかりませんが、宮古島は小さい島なのでどこのビーチでも割と近いと思います。
その日はインギャーマリンガーデンでした。

雨はやんでいても曇天ということもあり、クリアカヤックからはそこまで水中は見えませんでしたが、海の透明度が高く上から除くだけで魚が見えました！
熱帯魚がいるスポットもスタッフさんが細かく教えてくださいます。

また、スタッフさんが写真もたくさん撮ってくださるので、自分たちだけでは撮れない写真がたくさん残せて嬉しかったです。
ツアーの最後にはドローンで撮影した動画と写真を混ぜて編集したものまで頂けて、そのクオリティの高さにびっくりしました！

晴れた日にまたリベンジしてみたいなと思います。

Last year, when I participated in a snorkeling tour, I received very attentive service from PiPi, so I decided to repeat it this time. I was surprised that the kayak guide was the same Mahiro as last year.

The kayaking had to be cut short due to sudden bad weather, but I appreciated the concern for everyone's health. It was disappointing not to see the sunrise, but I would like to participate again next time.

As for snorkeling, the weather changed dramatically from the morning to a very nice day. I was truly amazed at how quickly the weather can change in Ishigaki Island. The guide, Misaki, worked hard to find sea turtles, and I was moved to see the cute sea turtles. I was a bit worn out towards the end, possibly due to the fatigue from the previous day and the early wake-up, but I felt reassured because they checked on my condition multiple times during the tour.

Additionally, they provided various information about restaurants and other places, which was very helpful as I was able to visit some of them.

When I come back to Ishigaki Island, I would like to use PiPi again. Thank you!

昨年シュノーケリングのツアーに参加した時にPiPiさんですごく丁寧に対応していただけたので、今回リピートすることにしましたが、カヤックのガイドさんが昨年と同じマヒロさんでびっくりしました。
カヤックは天候が突然崩れ途中で切り上げることになりましたが、参加者のみなさんの体調を気遣っていただきありがたかったです。サンライズが見れず残念でしたが、次の機会にまた参加してみたいです。
シュノーケリングは、朝の天気から一転、とても良い天気になりました。本当に石垣島の天気は変わりやすくてびっくりです。ガイドさんのミサキさんが頑張ってウミガメを見つけてくれて、かわいいウミガメを見ることが出来て感動しました。前日の疲れと朝の早起きが影響してか、終わりの方は少しバテてしまいましたが、途中何度も体調確認していただけたので安心して参加出来ました。あとご飯屋さんとかいろんな情報を教えてくれて、実際に行ったりも出来たのでとても助かりました。
また石垣島に来る時は、PiPiさんを利用したいと思います。ありがとうございました！

The clear kayak experience, where you can see to the bottom of the ocean, was very mystical, and I had a lot of fun with this first-time experience. Unfortunately, we were caught in the rain along the way, but the instructors were very flexible and accommodating, which allowed us to enjoy ourselves thoroughly. Additionally, at the end, they filmed us with a drone and even created a video, making it a perfect 100-point tour! If I have the opportunity to visit Miyako Island again, I definitely want to try other activities like stand-up paddleboarding!

海の底まで見えるクリアカヤック体験はとても神秘的で、初めての経験ができてすごく楽しかったです。途中であいにくの雨に見舞われてしまいましたが、インストラクターの方々が柔軟に対応してくださったのでとても楽しむことが出来ました。また、最後にはドローンでの撮影もしていただき、動画まで作っていただき大満足100点満点のツアーでした！また宮古島を訪れる機会があった際には、サップ等の別のアクティビティも是非体験してみたいと思いました！

I was able to fully enjoy both the mangroves and the sea. Although I only had one full day to stay, I think it was a great plan to enjoy the natural beauty of Ishigaki Island. The staff were kind and shared various recommendations for shops and spots in Ishigaki. I would like to try another plan when I visit Ishigaki Island again.

マングローブと海の両方を満喫できました。丸一日滞在できる日が1日しかありませんでしたが、石垣島の大自然を楽しむにはとてもよいプランだと思います。スタッフの方も親切で石垣のおすすめのお店やスポットを色々教えてくださいました。また石垣島に行く際には別のプランも体験してみたいです。

The staff took a lot of photos for us, and they also edited them into a digital album along with the drone footage, creating wonderful memories.

スタッフの方がたくさん写真を撮ってくれまたドローンで撮影してくれたものと合わせデジタルアルバムに編集していただき、とても良い思い出になりました

The instructor is very kind and teaches well, so it's reassuring even for beginners. You might need a change of clothes since you get a little wet. You can also use the shower for free. They take beautiful photos and send them to you right away.

インストラクターのお兄さんが優しく教えてくれるので、初めてでも安心です。少し濡れるので、着替え等必要かなと思います。無料でシャワーも使えます。
写真も綺麗に撮っていただき、すぐに送ってもらえます。

I applied because I wanted to canoe with my son in the beautiful, calm sea. The staff were very kind, and I fell in love with Miyako Island! There are also places to eat nearby, so we could relax after we finished. I hope to have the opportunity again!

綺麗な落ち着いてる海で息子とカヌーをしたくて応募しました。スタッフの方もすごく親切で宮古島が大好きになりました！近くに食べるお店もあるので終わってものんびりできます。また機会があればよろしくお願いします！

During a heavy rainstorm with thunder, I contacted for consultation about the departure time from the hotel, and they insisted that the event would go on as planned, stating it would be held rain or shine. They mentioned that I should have understood the precautions and that the cancellation fee would apply as per the regulations, insisting that there were no issues at the location.

As a parent with a small child, my concerns for safety grew, and I was left astonished by their heartless words. I do not recommend making a reservation. It is truly disappointing, especially considering that there were local people who provided excellent hospitality.

Given that we are dealing with nature, some rain is to be expected. The hotel insisted multiple times that the weather varies by location and that everything was fine at the site, but their insistence without checking the hotel's location only increased my distrust.

現地集合でホテルから出発する時間に大雨に雷が鳴り響く中、相談の連絡を入れると、開催します、雨天決行です、注意事項を理解して予約いただいているはず、キャンセル料は規定通り、現地は問題ないとの一点張り。

小さな子どもを抱えてたら安全面の心配がます中、心ない言葉に怒りを通り越して呆れます。ご予約はオススメしません。本当に最高のおもてなしをしていただいた現地の方もいる中、本当に残念でたまりません。

自然相手なので、多少の雨は想像がつきます。ホテルは現地近くで天気が場所により変わる、現地は大丈夫と何度もゴリ押しされましたが、こちらのホテルの場所も確認せずのゴリ押しの主張で、不信感がますばかりでした。

During my first visit to Ishigaki Island, I searched for activities and discovered a great plan.

Morning: Canoeing in the mangroves
Afternoon: Snorkeling in the Blue Cave

As expected from the nature-rich Ishigaki Island, both the mangroves and the Blue Cave were breathtakingly beautiful, allowing me to experience a special and extraordinary moment that I usually can't.

Last year, I also booked activities in Miyako Island, but with three activities (stand-up paddleboarding, canoeing, snorkeling), it was quite packed. However, this plan offered a comfortable pace.

The guide was very clear in their explanations and kindly taught those in our group who were new to the activities. For us who had some experience, the level was just right, and we were guided through the activities together, making for a very satisfying day.

I would like to repeat this plan when I visit again.

今回、初めての石垣島でアクティビティを検索していたら、良さげなプランを発見しました。

午前　マングローブでカヌー
午後　青の洞窟でシュノーケリング

さすが自然豊かな石垣島。
マングローブも青の洞窟も圧巻の美しさで、普段味わえない特別な非日常を体験できました。

昨年に宮古島でもアクティビティを申し込んだのですが、3つ(サップ、カヌー、シュノーケル)で結構余裕が無かったのですが、今回のプランはゆとりがあるプランでした。

ガイドの方が非常に分かりやすく、同じグループの初めての方にも優しく教えており、経験している私たちには程よいレベル感で一緒にアクティビティを誘導してもらったおかげで、非常に満足感のある一日になりました。

また旅行に伺う際には、こちらのプランをリピートしたいと思います。

Since we came all the way to Miyako Island, we thought we would try some marine sports, so we joined this tour that seemed enjoyable even for a couple in their late fifties. The kayak is transparent, so we could see the beautiful corals and fish that are hard to spot from the surface, clearly through the bottom of the boat! The instructor was also very engaging and made the time fly by. If you keep looking down at the underwater scenery, you might get seasick, but if you look up, you can enjoy the beautiful surrounding views, so just floating on the water is fun in itself. At the end, we received photos and videos taken with a drone, which became wonderful memories of our trip to Miyako Island.

せっかく宮古島に来たのでなにかマリンスポーツをと思い、アラ還夫婦でも楽しめそうなこちらのツアーに参加。カヤックが透明なので、海面からは見にくいきれいな珊瑚や魚が、船底ごしによく見えます！インストラクターのかたも楽しく話をしてくださり、あっという間に予定の時間がすぎました。下をむいて海中ばかり見ていると船酔いしそうでしたが、顔をあげれば美しい周りの景色を見れるので、のんびり海面に浮かんでいるだけでも楽しいです。最後に写真やドローンで撮ったビデオをいただき、宮古島での旅の良い思い出になりました。

It was my first time kayaking, but I felt at ease participating since they provided a lecture on how to operate the paddle and important points to keep in mind.

Once the kayaking started, I was amazed by the transparent Miyako Blue sea! They also pointed out spots where I could see clownfish (the fish from Finding Nemo) and tropical fish with emerald green and striped patterns, allowing me to enjoy a mini snorkeling experience without getting wet.

The best part was the drone footage; they captured some truly "Instagram-worthy" videos. I received about 1:30 minutes of edited footage along with raw photos and videos, which I highly recommend for those who want to edit their own. If you have an iPhone, you can conveniently receive it via AirDrop right there.

By the way, I wore a swimsuit, but I didn't get too wet except for my backside. This made it easy to participate without needing a shower afterward, so I highly recommend it!

初めてのカヤックでしたが、最初にオールの操作方法や注意点をレクチャーして貰えるので安心して参加できました。

いざカヤックが始まると、まず透明感のある宮古ブルーの海に感動！
クマノミ（ニモに出てくる魚）やエメラルドグリーンや縞々模様の熱帯魚のスポットも教えてもらい水に濡れずにプチシュノーケリング気分も味わえます。

一番良かったのはドローン撮影の動画で、大変「映える」動画を撮影してもらえます。
1:30程の編集してもらった映像と素材の写真、動画を貰えるので自分で編集される方にもおすすめです。
iPhoneだとAirDropでその場で貰えるのでありがたいです。

ちなみに水着着用でしたがお尻以外はそんなに濡れませんでした。
そのためシャワーとかも必要なく気軽に参加出来るのでおすすめです！

Under the kind guidance of the instructor, I was able to enjoy kayaking safely. I think I was able to fully appreciate the nature of the Hija River. I saw a fiddler crab for the first time, and it was very cute.

インストラクターさんの親切なご指導の下、カヤックを安全に楽しむことが出来ました。比謝川の自然を満喫出来たと思います。シオマネキというカニを初めて見ることが出来ましたが、とても可愛らしいかったです。
