All Reviews for 浮潛（シュノーケリング）

I wasn't confident in my swimming skills or physical strength, but the person in charge, Kometchi, was very kind, and I had a fun experience! There were many photos taken, and they were all wonderful, so I am very satisfied⭐︎ I plan to ask for your services again when I travel to Miyako Island! Thank you!

泳ぎが苦手で、体力にも自信がなかったですが、担当してくださったこめっちさんがとても優しくて、楽しく体験できました！撮ってくださった写真もたくさんあり、どれも素敵な写真で大満足です⭐︎また宮古島に旅行に来るときはこちらでお願いしようと思います！ありがとうございました！

I participated with a friend because I wanted to see sea turtles. On the day of the tour, I was able to meet many sea turtles, swim with them, and take wonderful photos. I've used various tours before, but this one had the most beautiful photos and was the best I've experienced! The staff was friendly, kind, and provided thorough guidance. When I come back to Miyako Island, I definitely want to use this service again. Thank you! ♡

ウミガメを見たくて、友人と2人で参加させていただきました。
当日は、たくさんのウミガメに会えて、一緒に泳いだり、素敵な写真を撮ってもらうことができました。様々なツアーを利用したことがあるのですが、
写真がとても綺麗で今までで一番良かったです！
担当スタッフさんも、気さくで優しく、丁寧に案内してくださいました。
また宮古島に来た時は、ぜひ！利用させていただきたいです。
ありがとうございました♡

This is my impression from participating in snorkeling tours in Miyako Island several times. I think it's a safe and enjoyable tour for beginners and families with children, as you can encounter sea turtles and clownfish shortly after entering the beach. The instructor, Komecchi, was also kind and attentive, making the experience enjoyable. I would love to join again if the opportunity arises.

宮古島でのシュノーケリングツアーに何回か参加したことがある中での感想です。
ビーチエントリーから間もなく海ガメに出会えたり、カクレクマノミに会えたりできて、シュノーケリング初心者やお子様連れの方にも安心で楽しいツアーだと思います。
インストラクターのこめっち君も親切丁寧に引率して下さり、楽しく過ごさせて頂きました。
また機会がありましたらお願いいたします。

I had a lot of free time and enjoyed swimming as I pleased. It was amazing to see sea turtles so easily. They were very friendly and incredibly cute.

自由時間も多くて好きなように泳がせてもらって楽しかったです
ウミガメがこんな簡単に見れるなんて不思議でした
人慣れしていて凄く可愛かったです

The guide was very skilled at entertaining us.

We were able to see about four sea turtles, and they taught us how to take great photos, so we got some wonderful pictures with the sea turtles! Not only the sea turtles, but the starfish photos were also cute.

We came here for our honeymoon, and it became a great memory!

案内してくれた方はとても楽しませるのが上手でした。

海ガメは4匹くらい見れて、ちゃんと写真の撮り方を教えてもらえたので海ガメと素敵な写真が撮れました！
海ガメだけじゃなく、ヒトデの写真も可愛かったです。

新婚旅行できたのですがいい思い出になりました！

My time in Miyako Island became my most enjoyable memory! I was able to swim with sea turtles and received wonderful photos, creating the best memories! The staff member, Kometchi, was kind and friendly! Thank you so much!

宮古島に来て1番楽しい思い出になりました！
ウミガメと一緒に泳ぐことができ素敵なお写真も頂き最高な思い出です！
担当のこめっちさんは優しく親切に接してくださいました！本当にありがとうございました！

At Shinjo Coast, I encountered two sea turtles in the shallow beach where I could touch the bottom. I was able to swim right next to them and got some great photos, which made for wonderful memories.

However, we finished in one hour instead of the planned two hours. I did see some beautiful small fish, but if I could wish for more, I would have liked to see a larger school of small fish in a coral-rich area during the remaining time.

新城海岸は、遠浅のビーチで、底に手がつくほどのところで、２頭のウミガメに出会えました。すぐそばで泳ぐことができ、写真もバッチリ撮ってもらえて、良い思い出になりました。
時間的には予定の2時間ではなく、１時間で終了。
綺麗な小魚も少し見れましたが、欲を言えば、残りの時間で、サンゴの多いところで、もっとたくさんの小魚の群れも見れたら良かったなあと思いました。

Unfortunately, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave due to the weather, but we were able to explore the surrounding sea thoroughly. We experienced the thrill and excitement of sea kayaking while ensuring safety, navigating through the waves. We also took a lot of photos, which became the best memories of this trip. I would love to do this again!

あいにくのお天気で青の洞窟には行けませんでしたが、
周辺の海の中を存分に探索できました。
シーカヤックも安全を保ちながらも、波の合間をぬって
ドキドキわくわくを体験させていただけました。
写真もたくさん撮っていただいて、この旅で一番の思い出になりました。
またお世話になりたいです！

Wow, I never expected to meet so many sea turtles up close like this! It was a tour that greatly exceeded my expectations, and I was absolutely, incredibly satisfied! I'll leave the details of the tour to the photos and other reviews, but here’s some information about the departure point (Shinjō Coast).

■ Meeting Time
Depending on the sea conditions on the day of the tour, you might receive a call the day before requesting a change. I had my time changed from 11:00 to 09:00.
■ Meeting Place
The meeting place is the light van parked in the parking lot.
■ Parking
There are both free and paid options (2,000 yen/day), but the free parking was full by 08:30.
■ Changing Rooms
There are three changing rooms each for men and women, which are public shower rooms as well. Since the storage shelves are high up, it's convenient to bring a waterproof bag (a plastic bag is fine) and a hook.
■ Shower Room
This is shared with the changing rooms. You can use the shower (only water?) for 100 yen for 5 minutes.
■ Toilet
The toilet is in the same building as the changing room/shower room.

To make the most of your time, I recommend wearing your swimsuit when heading to the tour departure point.

I received over 50 photos via LINE. I will definitely participate again next time!

いやー、こんなに近くで、しかも何匹ものウミガメさん達に会えるとは。。。
参加前の期待値を大幅に超えた、大大大満足のツアーでした！
ツアーの内容は写真と他のレビューにお任せするとして、ここではツアー出発地（新城海岸）の情報を少しお伝えします。

■集合時間
ツアー実施日の海の状況によって、変更を依頼する電話が前日にかかってくることがあります。
自分は11:00→09:00に変更になりました。
■集合場所
駐車場に駐車している軽のバンが集合場所です。
■駐車場
無料と有料（2,000円/日）がありますが、無料駐車場は08:30の時点で満車でした。
■更衣室
公設？のシャワー室兼用の更衣室が男性用、女性用とも3室ずつあります。
物置き用の網棚が高い位置にあるので、防水バック（レジ袋でOK）とフックを持っていくと便利です。
■シャワー室
更衣室と兼用です。
100円で5分間シャワー（水のみ？）が使えます。
■トイレ
更衣室/シャワー室と同じ建物にあります。

時間を有効に使うためにも、参加時は水着を着てツアー出発地に向かうことをお勧めします。

LINEで送っていただいた写真はなんと50枚以上。
次回も絶対参加しまーす！！

I was able to swim with sea turtles! My friend, who was a bit anxious about swimming, seemed to really enjoy it as well. The instructor was friendly and cool, and he took a lot of photos that I couldn't have captured myself.

ウミガメと一緒に泳げました！
泳ぎに不安のあった友人もとっても楽しめたようで良かったです。
インストラクターのお兄さんも気さくでかっこよく、自分では撮れない写真をたくさん撮っていただきました◎

The sea is beautiful, and there were more fish than I expected, which was amazing! ✨
And above all, the guide was very kind and taught my beginner sister patiently, making it a fun experience!
Thanks to them, it became a wonderful memory! Thank you!
I want to go again soon! I hope to see you then!

海が綺麗はことは言うまでもなく、期待以上にお魚がたくさん居て感激✨
そしてなにより初心者のお姉様相手に丁寧に指導して楽しませてくれたガイドさん！
おかげでとてもいい思い出になりました！ありがとう
また近いうちに行きたい！その時はまたよろしくお願いします

The weather was great, and I was impressed by the beauty of the sea in Miyako Island. I saw many blue fish and the vibrant colors of the fish were amazing. I also got to see a sea turtle. I had a great time thanks to the handsome instructor! I will definitely make a reservation the next time I come to Miyako Island. Don't forget to swim energetically again!

天候にも恵まれ
宮古島の海の綺麗さには感動です。
青い魚などたくさんみれました
魚たちの色鮮やかさ、ウミガメにもしっかり会えました。
楽しめたのはイケメンインストラクターさんのおかげです！
また宮古島に来る時、予約しますね~
また元気な泳ぐで~忘れないでね。

A trip with my adult daughter, and our guide, Kometchi, was incredibly attentive and took great care of my daughter, who was having difficulty breathing. They quickly eased her anxiety. They were also great at spotting sea turtles and provided us with a wealth of information about Miyako Island, making our snorkeling experience and the rest of our trip truly enjoyable.

We had originally booked an afternoon course, but we received a call the day before suggesting we switch to the morning due to tide conditions. At the time, I didn't realize it, but they were right—snorkeling was much easier closer to high tide, so I definitely recommend going at a time when you can dive deeper. Also, it's a good idea to book on the first day and gather plenty of recommended information about Miyako Island!

成人した娘との2人旅、担当のこめっちさん、上手く呼吸出来ない娘にとてもゆっくり丁寧に対応してくださり、すぐに不安払拭。ウミガメを見つけるのも上手だし何よりも宮古島情報をたくさんくださって、シュノーケルだけじゃ無く、その後の旅も本当に楽しめました。
予約は午後からコースでしたが、前日にお電話があり潮位の関係で午前が良いとの事で変更。
その時は分からなかったけど、仰るとおり満潮に近い方がシュノーケルし易かったので、ぜひ深く潜れる時間をオススメします。あと、一日目に予約して宮古島のオススメ情報いっぱい聞き出すと良いですよー。

Five women around the age of 60 participated. There were some who were not good at swimming, but thanks to Ko-chan's meticulous care, we were able to enjoy snorkeling safely and securely. We saw a lot of fish as well. Personally, my first sea kayaking experience was physically tough. Sensing that, Ko-chan towed me back with her own kayak, which made it much easier. I have experienced snorkeling many times, including overseas, but the mystical beauty of the Blue Cave was exceptional. I want to go again.

還暦前後の女性5人で参加。泳ぎが苦手な人もいたけど、コーちゃんのきめ細かい配慮のおかげで、安心、安全にシュノーケルを楽しむことができました、
魚もたくさん見られました。
個人的に、初シーカヤックは体力的にきつかったです。
それを察知したコーちゃんが、帰りはご自分のカヤックに繋いで曳航してくれて、楽チンでした。
海外含め、シュノーケルは何回も経験がありますが、青の洞窟の神秘的な美しさは格別でした。また行きたいです。

I participated in a solo trip to Miyako Island for the first time. The guide was very friendly and easy to talk to, and the assistance was great, making it a very enjoyable experience. I also encountered a sea turtle, and they took beautiful photos, creating wonderful memories. Thank you very much.

初めての宮古島でひとり旅で参加させて頂きました。
ガイドの方がとてもフレンドリーでお話ししやすく、アテンドも良くとても楽しめました。
ウミガメとも出会え、綺麗に写真を撮ってくださって、とても良い思い出となりました。
ありがとうございました。

- The guide was very kind and provided easy-to-understand explanations, making it easy for first-timers to participate.
- There was also ample support for those who are not good at swimming.
- The duration and distance of swimming were just right, and it was nice to receive photos afterward.

・ガイドの方がとても親切、分かりやすい説明で初めてでも参加しやすい。
・泳ぎが苦手な人へのサポートも厚い。
・時間も泳ぐ距離も程よい、終わった後に写真も頂けるのが良かった。

The weather was great, and I was able to see many sea turtles! Kometchi-san taught me various facts about sea turtles, which was very educational. I also received information about recommended spots in the area, which was very helpful. Thank you!

天気にも恵まれ、たくさんの海亀を見ることができました！こめっちさんが色々とうみがめの知識を教えてくれたので勉強にもなりました。
また、周辺のおすすめスポットなどの情報もいただき、とても参考になりました♪
ありがとうございました！

I was able to meet a sea turtle and swim together at a very close distance. We also went to a place with a lot of coral, where I could see many colorful fish up close!

ウミガメに会えて、とっても近距離で一緒に泳ぐことが出来ました。サンゴが多くあるところにも行き、たくさんのカラフルなお魚と間近で見ることができました！

The guide was great, and I had a wonderful experience! The Blue Cave was very beautiful, and I want to come back! It was truly the best! Thank you!

ガイドの方も対応も良く、とてもいい思い出が出来ました！
青の洞窟もとても綺麗で、また来たいと思いました！
本当に最高でした！
ありがとうございました！

Due to the rain and strong winds, the tour content changed, but I was able to enjoy the beautiful Kabira Bay! The staff recommended some great places, making my trip even more fulfilling. ^_^

雨と強風で、ツアー内容が変わってしまいましたが、キレイな川平湾を楽しむ事ができました！
スタッフさんに、おすすめのお店を教えてもらい、より充実した旅行になりました^_^

I visited the Blue Cave for the first time, and it was very beautiful! I thought it might be crowded during the second half of Golden Week, but I chose the 7 AM option, which turned out to be a great decision. Fortunately, there were few people, and the Blue Cave felt like a private experience! I was able to take a lot of photos, and it became a wonderful memory! There were also many fish, which was great. I would love to participate again! Thank you!

初めて青の洞窟来ました、とても綺麗でした！
ゴールデンウィーク後半で混んでいるかなと思っていましたが、朝7時からのを選択したのが良くとても運がいいことに人が少なく青の洞窟が貸切状態でした！
たくさん写真も撮っていただきとてもいい思い出になりました！
魚も沢山いて良かったです
また参加したいです！ありがとうございました

Right after we dove in, there was a sea turtle right there, and by the end, we were able to swim with over ten of them up close!

Perhaps because it was high tide, the sea turtles came quite close to the shallow areas, so we could snorkel comfortably within a range where we could stand. Neither my husband nor I can swim well, but the life jackets kept us floating nicely, allowing us to enjoy ourselves without worry!

The instructor, Komecchi, was very fun and kind, and we were able to get along well with the other participants, which made us very satisfied! We also had over 20 wonderful photos taken, and we were grateful for all the recommendations for spots in Miyako on our way back. Thanks to that, we had a fantastic time in Miyako Island! If we have the chance, we would love to do it again.

潜った直後からすぐそこにウミガメさんがいて、終わるまでには10匹以上はすぐ近くで泳ぐことができました！

満潮の時間だったからか、かなり浅瀬のところまでウミガメさんが来てくれたので、最後まで足のつく範囲でシュノーケリングができました。夫婦そろって全然泳げませんでしたが、ライフジャケットがかなりぷかぷか浮けたので、安心して楽しむことができました！

インストラクターのこめっちさんもとても楽しくて親切で、参加者同士でも仲良く過ごせて大満足です！素敵なお写真も20枚以上撮っていただき、帰りに宮古のおすすめスポットもたくさん教えていただきありがとうございました。
おかげで宮古島大満足でした！機会があればまたお願いしたいです。

If you want to meet sea turtles, I definitely recommend this place. Before participating this time, I joined other snorkeling tours but couldn't encounter any.

The instructor, Komecchi, was very thorough in his explanations and friendly, making for a very enjoyable time!!

Thank you very much.

ウミガメに会いたいなら絶対ここをオススメします。
今回参加する前にほかのシュノーケルにも参加しましたが出会う事が出来ず

インストラクター（こめっち）さんの説明も丁寧で愛想も良く、とても楽しい時間を過ごすことが出来ました！！

ありがとうございました。

We went to the beautiful sea of Ishigaki Island to celebrate my partner's birthday. It was my first time doing a SUP tour and snorkeling, and the weather was perfect with a clear blue sea, which was amazing. During snorkeling, our guide, Arai, shared knowledge about Ishigaki Island on the bus ride and provided detailed explanations of the equipment in the water. He also took beautiful photos of us, and we were lucky enough to encounter a sea turtle, which was fantastic. However, I did feel a bit seasick while diving, so those who are prone to motion sickness might want to bring some medication.

During the SUP tour, we had a great time on the water thanks to our cheerful coach, Yusuke. The "Nice in!" cheers when we fell into the water were the best! We even sang a birthday song together on the water, which made my partner very happy. We took a lot of photos, creating wonderful memories. Thank you very much!

今回パートナーのBirthdayを祝うために石垣島の綺麗な海に行きました。SUPツアーとシュノーケリングを初めてやったのですが、よく晴れていて海も青く透きとおり最高でした。シュノーケリングではガイドの新井さんが行きのバスで石垣島の知識など説明し、海では丁寧に道具の説明、海での写真を綺麗に撮っていただき、またウミガメにも遭遇できてとても良かったです。ただ潜ってる最中にちょっと酔ってしまい酔いやすい人は酔いどめ必要かも。SUPツアーでは明るいユウスケさんのコーチングで海の上を楽しく過ごせました。途中何度も海に落ちてしまったときなどナイスイン！の掛け声最高です。また海の上でみんなでBirthdayソングを歌ってくれてこんなにも楽しい時間を過ごせるなんてパートナーもとても喜んでいました。写真も沢山撮って頂き最高の思い出ができました。ありがとうございました。

I had a rich experience even though it was just a half-day course! I got to see beautiful coral, feed the fish, and even see turtles. I recommend it for those who have a short stay and want to make the most of their last day.

半日コースなのに濃厚な時間が過ごせました！
美しい珊瑚、お魚の餌やり、亀も見れました。
滞在日数が少ない、最終日まで遊び倒したい方にオススメです。

I was nervous about whether I would get to see a sea turtle until the day of the event, but I was thrilled to encounter one right at the start! My elementary school daughter was also very satisfied with her first snorkeling experience! The instructor was cheerful and provided thorough guidance, which made me very happy. Thank you so much!

当日までウミガメに会えるかドキドキでしたが、開始早々に出会えて感激しました♪
小学生の娘も大満足の初シュノーケリングとなりました！
インストラクターの方も明るく丁寧にレクチャーいただき嬉しかったです。本当にありがとうございました^ ^

My husband and I participated together. I was a bit nervous since it had been a while since I last went snorkeling, but the accompanying staff were very kind and made it a wonderful experience! We got to see many sea turtles and tropical fish, and I was thrilled to take lots of photos with the sea turtles. I definitely want to use this service again next time.

主人と2人で参加しました。久しぶりのシュノーケリングで少し緊張していましたが、同行スタッフの方が親切に対応してくださり、素晴らしい体験ができました！
海亀や熱帯魚にもたくさん会えて、海亀との3ショット写真もたくさん撮って頂き感激です。次回もぜひ利用させていただきたいと思います。

I only went snorkeling and didn't participate in any optional tours, but miraculously, a very large sea turtle swam right up to the boat. It was easy to see from the boat, so I quickly jumped into the water and waved at the turtle, which swam over to me. It was a very friendly turtle, and I was able to gently touch it! I was moved by the colorful fish and the beautiful sea! The staff provided very careful and thorough support, so I felt safe in the water. Thank you so much! I made the best memories! ♪

シュノーケリングだけで、オプションツアーには参加しなかったのですが、奇跡的に、とっても大きなウミガメさんが船まで泳いで来てくれました。船から良く見えるので、直ぐに海に入りウミガメに手を振ると私の方へ泳いで来てくれる、とても人慣れたウミガメさん、そっと触れる事が出来ました！
色とりどりの魚達や綺麗な海に感動！
スタッフさんがとても丁寧に抜かりなくサポートしてくれるので、海でも安心でした。本当にありがとうございます！
最高の思い出が出来ました♪

I experienced snorkeling and sea kayaking this time. In conclusion, I had a very meaningful time and a wonderful experience by participating. The staff who guided us were attentive to our safety, asking if we were tired or okay, while providing various lectures since it was our first time. They also took photos as an optional service, ensuring that participants had a great time.

I think that participatory experiences can sometimes feel like a conveyor belt, but the guide this time was different. They included surprises, such as points of interest that were truly moving, making it enjoyable. It was a wonderful experience that made me want to come back.

The flow of the tour started with changing clothes, followed by a kayaking lecture. We then got into the kayak and paddled to the cave. After a short break near the cave, we finally entered it. Although I learned how to swim during the breaks and the actual experience, I surprisingly got used to it. The time spent swimming inside the cave was just under an hour.

Since it was during a holiday, it was a bit crowded, but it wasn't overwhelming, and we could move around each other. The three-hour duration felt short, but after kayaking back and snorkeling, I felt a bit tired, perhaps from the sense of relief at the end. So, I think it was just the right amount of time.

今回シュノーケリングとシーカヤックを体験しました。
結論から、参加できてとても有意義な時間と素敵な体験を経験することができました。
ガイドしていただいたスタッフの方は、初めて参加する私たちに色んなレクチャーをしながら、疲れてませんか？大丈夫ですか？と安全にもとても気を配ってくださり、合間にオプションで依頼した写真を撮ってくれて、参加者をしっかりと楽しませてくれていました。
こうした参加型の体験は流れ作業になってしまうところもあると思いますが、今回ガイドしてれた方はそうしたことがなく、感動する場所のポイントなどサプライズを入れて楽しむことができました。
それは、また来たいと思える素晴らしいものでした。

ツアーの流れは、着替えてからカヤックのレクチャーを受け、カヤックに乗って、洞窟まで漕いでいきます。洞窟近くで少し休みいよいよ洞窟内へ。泳ぎ方も休みの間＋本番で覚えながらでしたが、不思議と慣れてきます。
洞窟内で泳ぐ時間は1時間弱くらい。
連休中ということもあり、少し混んではいましたが芋洗い状態ではなく、お互い行き来はできる状態ではありました。
3時間という時間は短く感じますが、実際往復カヤックとシュノーケリングをすると、終わった時に安心感からか少し疲れます。
なのでちょうどいい時間だと思います。

It was fun to be surrounded by many fish before reaching the Blue Cave. Inside the cave, I was moved by the indescribably beautiful blue color. There was a 6-year-old child with us, but the guide provided great support, making it possible for us to enjoy the experience, which was wonderful.

青の洞窟にたどり着くまでも、たくさんの魚に囲まれてたのしかったです。そして、洞窟ではなんとも言えないきれい青をみることができて、感動しました。
6才の子供もいましたが、ガイドさんが、しっかり
フォローしてくださり頑張ることができて、とても良かったです。
