In the morning, I went snorkeling, and in the afternoon, I experienced the water buffalo on Yubu Island.
In the morning, the instructor Kenken provided thorough guidance, allowing us to enjoy snorkeling safely and happily. He shared information about the fish and coral and took many great photos, which was fantastic! I also appreciated him recommending a lunch spot on the way back.
In the afternoon, Rikkun was our guide. During the car ride, he talked a lot about Iriomote Island and Yubu Island. The water buffalo were very cute, and I was able to touch them and take photos together, creating wonderful memories. The gelato shop is highly recommended.
It was a very fulfilling day. Thank you!
午前中はシュノーケリング、午後は由布島水牛を体験しました。
午前中、インストラクターのけんけんがしっかり指導してくれ、楽しく安全にシュノーケリングをすることができました。魚やサンゴの情報を教えてくれたり、映える写真をたくさん撮ってくれて最高でした!帰りの車でオススメのランチスポットを教えてくれたのもありがたかったです。
午後は、りっくんがガイドしてくれました。車での移動中も、西表島や由布島のことなど、たくさん話してくれました。水牛たちはとてもかわいくて、島の中では触ったり、一緒に写真を撮れたり、素敵な思い出ができました。ジェラート屋さんがオススメです。
とても充実した1日でした。ありがとうございました!

I had a stand-up paddleboarding experience and went snorkeling at Balas Island! It was my first time on a SUP, but we moved slowly together, making it a fun experience! They also shared knowledge about the Iriomote wildcat and nature, allowing us to really connect with the environment!
While snorkeling, I was amazed to swim near a completely white island made of coral and in deeper waters, where I could see so many fish in the crystal-clear sea! I even got to take photos from underwater, which made me very satisfied! Thank you very much!
Sup体験とバラス島でシュノーケリングをしました!
初めてのsupでしたが、みんなでゆっくり進めたので楽しく体験できました!

The Iriomote Island mangrove canoe tour was a lot of fun as we enjoyed the scenery while canoeing, observing the butterflies and plants that inhabit Iriomote Island. Throughout the tour, the guide provided explanations about the butterflies and plants of Iriomote Island, as well as the lives of the local people.
The water buffalo cart ride to Yubu Island takes you across the water from Iriomote Island to Yubu Island. Yubu Island is a botanical garden, where we could also see butterflies and plants. On the way back, we rode the water buffalo cart back to Iriomote Island. Inside the cart, we were treated to traditional sanshin music, which added to the tropical atmosphere and was very enjoyable.
西表島マングローブカヌーツアーはカヌーをしながら景色をみて、西表島に生息する蝶や、植物をみながら楽しめるので非常に楽しかったです。ツアー中はずっとガイドの方が西表島の蝶や植物、西表島の人々の暮らしなど説明していただけます。
由布島の水牛車は水の上を水牛車で渡り西表島から由布島に向かいます。由布島は植物園になっており、ここでも蝶や植物をみることができました。帰りも水牛車に乗り西表島へ向かいます。水牛車の中では三線を引いて頂けるので南国らしさ満開でとても良かったです。

I was a bit anxious since it was my first time doing SUP and snorkeling, but the guide was very attentive and I had a great time! Even though I was the only one participating among many pairs, I had no issues at all. During the SUP, we were taken to a waterfall basin, which was deep enough that I couldn't touch the bottom, but I could swim and enjoy the waterfall experience! I was nervous about snorkeling for the first time, but I was able to get used to it while holding onto the guide's float board.
Bara Island was a bit painful to walk on due to the heels, but it was a stunning island made of rare coral, with only two in the world! The view was breathtaking! There were plenty of fish and coral, and the deep trenches expanded the underwater world for sure. I was really glad to participate, especially since it had been 3 to 4 weeks since the last landing! The guide took lots of photos and videos, so I could safely leave my smartphone in the car.
Next time, I’d like to try the limestone caves and sea turtle snorkeling as well! Thank you for your thoughtful care; I enjoyed every moment!
初SUP&初シュノーケリングだったので不安な気持ちがありましたが、ガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくださり楽しめました!
お二人組が多い中1人参加でしたが全く問題なく参加できました◎
SUPの途中滝壺に案内して下さり、足がつかないほど深いところでしたが泳いで滝行もできます!
初シュノーケリングで不安だったのでガイドさんの浮輪ボードにつかまりながら馴らせていけました!
バラス島は途中歩くところがかかとが痛いですが世界に二つしかない貴重な珊瑚でできた島とのことで絶景でした!お魚や珊瑚はもちろん深い海溝もあり世界観が広がること間違いなしだと思います。3〜4週間振りの上陸とのことで本当に参加できて良かったです!!
ガイドさんが沢山お写真や動画を撮って下さったのでスマホも安心して車内に置いていけます◎
次回は鍾乳洞や海亀シュノーケリング等も行ってみたいです!
細やかな気遣いをしてくださり終始楽しめましたありがとうございました!!

Since the tour to Balas Island was canceled, I only participated in the morning mangrove canoeing. There were quite a few guests, and at first, I wondered if it would be okay, but the guides worked together efficiently and made sure that each guide team could rotate in an orderly manner. The transportation to the port was smooth, and all the guests were cooperative, making it a fun experience.
Guide R-kun constantly entertained the guests with interesting stories, ranging from jokes to serious jungle tales. At various points, he took photos of each guest, and when we managed to strike a good pose, everyone applauded, which was a lot of fun!
I intended to bring my waterproof camera, but I was told to leave it behind, so I complied. However, there were guests from other teams who brought their cameras, so I thought it would be even better if there was some consistency regarding that. Although I couldn't bring my camera, I was able to take many photos, and I received them via LINE at the end, which was great!
バラス島が催行されなくなったため、午前のマングローブカヌーのみ参加しました。
ゲストが結構な大人数で、最初は大丈夫かな〜と思ったのですが、ガイドのみなさんが仲良くテキパキ連携して、それぞれのガイドチームが順序よくまわれるよう工夫されていました。港への送迎もスムーズで、ゲストのみなさんも協力的で楽しくすごせました。
ガイドのRっくんは常にゲストを楽しませようとおもしろい話(ジョークから真面目なジャングルの話まで笑)をたくさんしてくれました。ポイントポイントで各ゲストごとに写真を撮ってくれて、良いポーズが撮れるとみんなで拍手したり、楽しかったです!
自分の防水カメラを持っていこうと思ったら置いていってほしいと言われたので、従ったのですが、持ってきてるチームのゲストもいたので、その辺り統一していただけるとさらに良いなぁと思いました。自分のカメラは持っていけませんでしたが、写真はたくさん撮って最期にLINEでもらえたので、よかったです!

I participated in a canoe trip with my girlfriend. It seems that during winter, most ferries to Uehara Port are canceled, so we took the ferry to Ohara instead. We almost missed it because we woke up late.
From Ohara Port, there was a replacement bus to Uehara Port, where we met up with our guide.
The canoeing started quickly after a brief explanation. It was quite charming and enjoyable. The stand-up paddleboarding seemed challenging for the women when they came out of the river against the headwind.
It seems that many shops are often closed for lunch, so everyone was eating at one place. We made do with the bread we had bought.
The ox cart ride was only about 400 meters to the island, so it felt a bit short, but I felt lucky to hear the driver play the sanshin while singing.
The journey was not boring thanks to the guide's explanations! We were taken back to Ohara Port and were able to return on the 5 PM ferry. I had a great vacation! Thank you!
彼女とカヌーで参加しました。冬はほぼ上原港行きの便が欠航なようで、大原行きの便に乗っての出発。起きるのが遅れて遅れかけました
大原港からは代わりのバスが出ており上原港まで。そこでガイドさんと合流しました。
カヌーは説明もそこそこに早速ライドオン。なかなかに風情があって楽しかったです。SUPの方は川から最後出てくるときに逆風で女性の方は大変そうだったな。
昼は店が開いていないことも多いようで皆さん1つのお店で食べられていました。我々は買っておいたパンで済ましました。
牛車は島まで精々400m程度なので若干物足りませんでしたが、御者のおっちゃんの三線弾き語りが聞けて得した気分でした。
道中もガイドさんの説明もあり退屈しませんでした!
帰りは大原港まで送っていただき17時の便で帰ることができました。良いバカンスを楽しめました!ありがとうございました。

I wanted to go mangrove canoeing on Iriomote Island and snorkeling at Barasu Island, so I made a reservation the day before despite the questionable weather. On the same day, I received a call informing me that due to bad weather, the activity at Barasu Island was canceled, but I could choose between a free cancellation or just the mangrove experience. On the day of the tour, the wind on Iriomote Island was strong, but the mangrove area was calm, and I was able to fully enjoy the mangrove canoeing in nice weather. The guide taught us a lot about the wildlife and plants, and even took photos for us, making it a very satisfying tour.

After kayaking through the mangroves, we went for a bit of canyoning to Nara Falls. We swam across the pool with a lively family. We had a fantastic time listening to our guide Kaede talk about the nature of Iriomote Island, the Iriomote wildcat, and the crested serpent eagle.
In the afternoon, we leisurely crossed to Yufu Island while being rocked by water buffalo. The gelato was exquisite. They didn't have that 30 years ago when I came. I hardly felt the passage of time; it truly is a World Heritage site.
マングローブをカヤックで進んだ後、ちょっとしたキャニオニングでナーラの滝へ。滝壺を泳ぎ渡る元気なご家族連れとご一緒しました。ガイドのカエデさんから西表島の自然やイリオモテヤマネコやカンムリワシの話を聞きながら、最高に楽しい時間を過ごしました。

I wanted to experience activities on Iriomote Island and also go snorkeling at Barasu Island, so I made a reservation here. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, the activities at Barasu Island were canceled, but I was able to choose between a full-day cancellation, a half-day cancellation, sightseeing, or other activities.
I received the cancellation notice around 1 PM the day before (I was delayed in returning the call due to my own circumstances), but they made the decision early, so I was able to spend my time without worry. Since it was a trip during the New Year holidays, I was informed that restaurants and supermarkets around the meeting point at the port would be closed, and that there might not be any bento available at the supermarket during the New Year. This valuable information allowed me to purchase a bento at a supermarket that was open that day.
We did canyoning in the morning and mangrove canoeing in the afternoon. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable, to the point that you wouldn't believe they were a newcomer.
We were able to take a shower after each activity, which warmed us up.
They provide marine shoes, but you will need to return them after arrival and switch to your own footwear, so I think it would be good to have flip-flops or something that can get wet. They took a lot of great photos for us, which were wonderful and ones we couldn't have taken ourselves. (The photos can be sent via LINE.)
There are plenty of other activities available, so I want to go back to Iriomote Island! I would like to request PIPI again! This is a fantastic shop that I can recommend to everyone!
西表島のアクティビティを体験したい、尚且つバラス島でシュノーケリングがしたくてこちらを申し込みました。
結果は天候不良の為、バラス島でのアクティビティは中止になりましたが、1日キャンセルか半日キャンセル、観光、別のアクティビティを選ぶことができました。
中止の連絡は前日の13時頃に連絡があり(こちらの都合で折り返しの連絡は遅くなりました)、早めに判断してくださったので不安なく過ごせました。年末年始の旅行だったので、集合場所の港周辺の飲食店やスーパーが閉まっていること、スーパーでは年始はお弁当は販売していないかも・・という貴重な情報も教えていただけたので、その日のうちに営業しているスーパーでお弁当を購入することができました。
私たちは午前キャニオニング、午後マングローブカヌーでした。
ガイドさんは移住者とは思えないぐらいに知識が豊富な方でした。
アクティビティ毎にシャワーを浴びることができ、体が温まりました。
マリンシューズは貸してもらえますが、到着後返却して自分の履物に履き替えることになるので、濡れてもいいビーサンなどがあるといいと思いました。

Due to bad weather, we couldn't go snorkeling at Barasu Island, but we participated in a mangrove canoe tour in the morning.
It was my first time on Iriomote Island, but our guide, Gakki, shared various stories about the island on the way to our destination, which made the journey exciting.
At first, I struggled to paddle as I had hoped, getting stuck and bumping into trees, but it was thrilling and a lot of fun.
We were able to see the beautiful Sagari-bana, which blooms briefly, and felt the power of nature while soaking in negative ions at the waterfall at the end. It was a truly precious time!
Gakki also took many wonderful photos, and just looking back at them brings back the fun memories. I thought it would be great to come back during the peak bloom of the Sagari-bana or for a revenge trip to Barasu Island. It became a lovely memory of our honeymoon. Thank you, Gakki! ♡
悪天候のためバラス島でのシュノーケリングは叶いませんでしたが、午前中のみのコースでマングローブカヌーのツアーに参加しました。
西表島は初めてでしたが、ポイントまでの道中でガイドのガッキーが西表島のいろいろな話をしてくださったので、ワクワクしながら向かうことができました。
最初は思ったように進めず、座礁したり木に突っ込んだりしましたが、スリルがあってとても楽しかったです。
すぐに散ってしまうというサガリバナが綺麗な状態で見られたり、ゴールの滝でマイナスイオンを浴びながら大自然のパワーを感じたりと、大変貴重な時間を過ごすことができました!
素敵なお写真もたくさん撮ってくださっていて、見返すだけで楽しかった時間が蘇ってきます。次はサガリバナが満開の時期か、バラス島のリベンジでまた来たいなと思いました。新婚旅行の素敵な思い出になりました。ガッキー、ありがとう♡

Due to the conditions of the waves the day before, we were informed that it was possible to change to a half-day canoe and trekking tour (7,000 yen per person). After considering it, I got back to them. When I followed up, I was told that caving was also available, so I requested that tour, but there was no explanation about the pricing at that time, and after the tour, I was charged 12,000 yen per person. I had the understanding that it would be around 7,000 yen, so I would have appreciated a clear explanation if there was a change in the price.
Additionally, after being informed that we could not land on Barasu Island, I booked another tour company, and we were able to land on Barasu Island and go snorkeling.
The introduction to the creatures during the cave exploration and canoeing, as well as the information about Iriomote Island, was very interesting and enjoyable. However, on the day of the tour, there were many people, and I was unsure where to wait for photos in narrow spaces. While taking pictures as we progressed in the canoe, there were times when we got stuck and were bumped from behind, so I would have liked clearer instructions and guidance. I was told that the hotel pick-up time was 16:30, but we actually arrived around 17:15.
We waited for the shower for the same group going to the port, and after being taken to the port, we were then taken back to the hotel. Since I had other plans afterward, I would have appreciated it if the staff, who were numerous at the office, could have taken that into consideration in case of significant changes.
前日に波等の関係でバラス島へ上陸できない為、半日のカヌー&トレッキングツアー(1人7,000円)の変更は可能とのご連絡があり、一度検討し折り返しをいたしました。
折り返しした際、ケイビングもできるとのお話でそちらのツアーをお願いしましたがその際料金についての説明はなく、ツアー後1人12,000円を請求されました。7,000円程度実施できるとの認識だった為、料金変更が場合はしっかり説明頂きたかったです。
また、バラス島上陸できない旨の連絡があった後別のツアー会社を予約したところしバラス島への上陸、シュノーケリングの実施ができました。
洞窟探検、カヌー時に生き物の紹介や西表島の紹介をして頂けた点はとても面白く楽しかったですが、当日のツアーも人数が多く、狭い場所での写真撮影はどこで待ってたら良いのか、カヌーで進みながら写真を撮る際にに後ろがつっかえて後ろから突っ込まれたりとしたのでしっかり指示、案内をして頂きたかったのと、ホテル送迎時刻を16:30と伝えられていたが実際到着したのは17:15頃でした。
同じグループの港行きのシャワーを待ち、港に送迎後ホテルに送迎され、
その後の予定もあったので大幅に変更になる際は事務所に多数のスタッフもいた為、ご配慮頂けたら嬉しかったです。

The mangroves and snorkeling were both breathtaking. The emerald-colored sea, the colorful coral reefs, and the mysterious mangroves created a scene that felt like something out of a travel guidebook. Our guide, Matsuko, provided clear explanations, and even though it was my first time kayaking and snorkeling, I was able to enjoy it as a beginner. The guide was very kind, ensuring that we could safely enjoy the marine sports. I was also very happy that they took photos and sent the data to us. Thank you very much.
マングローブも、シュノーケリングも絶景でした。
エメラルド色の海ら色とりどりのサンゴ礁、神秘的なマングローブ、観光ガイド本でしか見たことのないような、光景がそこには広がっていました。
ガイドのまつこさんの説明はわかりやすく、カヌーもシュノーケルリングも初めてだったのですが、初心者でも楽しむことが出来ました。
ガイドさんが、親切して下さり、安心安全に、マリンスポーツを楽しむことができました。
写真撮影をして、データを送って頂けたことも、とても嬉しかったです。
ありがとうございました。

The staff (Kaz) was easy to talk to and explained everything politely, which was great! It became a very enjoyable memory! I'm glad we took a lot of photos. If I had to say something, I wish I could have taken a photo with a sea turtle, haha.
スタッフ(カズさん)が話しやすく、丁寧に説明してくれて良かった!
とても楽しい思い出になりました!
写真も沢山撮って貰いよかったです。
強いて言うなら、ウミガメと写真撮りたかった笑

The waterfall and snorkeling were amazing! Every view was beautiful and moving! The guide's stories were also interesting and enjoyable. It was physically demanding, but I felt like I could really enjoy each part! I was able to swim a lot at the waterfall and even saw sea turtles. We got some great photos, so I have plenty of memories. I definitely had muscle pain the next day. The woman's angry voice in the shop was scary. The tour was very fun and made me feel happy!
滝もシュノーケリングも最高でした!どの景色もキレイで感動しました!ガイドさんの話しもおもしろくて良かったです。
体力のいる内容でしたが、一つ一つしっかり楽しめた気がします!滝でもたくさん泳げて、ウミガメもみれました。写真もとってもらえたので思い出いっぱいです。次の日からしっかり筋肉痛になりました
ショップ内にいた女の人が怒る声が怖かったです。ツアーはとっても楽しくて幸せな気持ちになりました!!

I decided to participate based on the words snorkeling, Hatoma Island, and Barasu Island, and it was a great decision. Despite the approaching Typhoon No. 14 after the previous one, the morning was calm, and we were able to land on Barasu Island, fulfilling a long-held wish. I was amazed by the beauty of the coral reefs in the morning. Following the staff's lead made me feel at ease. For lunch, we landed on Hatoma Island. It was unfortunate that we couldn't explore the island due to the high number of COVID cases, but I was glad to experience Hatoma Blue. In the afternoon, we went to pick up the next group at Uehara Port and then headed to a different point. I was happy to encounter a sea turtle this time. Meeting Nemo was also fantastic, but I started to feel seasick around the fourth point as the waves picked up.
シュノーケリング、鳩間島、バラス島、このワードで参加を決めましたが大正解。台風後、また、14号接近するなかの参加。午前中は、波も静かでバラス島にも上陸でき念願叶いました。午前中は珊瑚礁があまりにもきれいで驚き。スタッフの先導でついていくスタイルだと安心します。昼は鳩間島に上陸。コロナが多数でたこともあり島の中は見学できなかったのが残念でしたが鳩間ブルーにも出会えたし良かったです。午後組を一度迎えに上原港まで迎えに行き、また、違うポイントへいく。今度は海亀に出会えて嬉しかった。ニモにも会わせてくれて最高でしたが4ポイント目辺りから波が出てきて船酔いしてしまった。

Originally, I had signed up for the SUP @ Mangrove and snorkeling tour at Barasu Island, but due to poor conditions around Barasu Island, I received an inquiry the day before asking, "Would you like to cancel? Or switch to another tour?" Since I was already there, I decided to book the trekking and SUP @ Mangrove tour, and that turned out to be a great decision! The instructor, Matsuko, had only been there for a few months, but she was very knowledgeable about Iriomote Island. She shared many interesting tidbits during our travel, including stories about the road construction that was halted and a simulator game at the wildcat museum.
After arriving, we all moved to the point with a simple mountain climb. Along the way, she introduced us to the flora and fauna of Iriomote Island. Coincidentally, there were four couples participating, including my husband and me: a couple who were masters of remote islands, a chatty couple from Kansai (Shikoku), and a calm yet friendly couple. Everyone was very approachable, and we became close through activities like diving. My usually quiet husband seemed to have a lot of fun, adding his own flair during the dives and really enjoying himself. At the end of the activities, the remote island master couple recommended a dining spot, which we promptly visited. The other couples also enjoyed hearing stories about different remote islands from them. Thank you so much for the wonderful memories, instructor Matsuko, and to all the couples! Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Oh, and about the clothing: I thought I would be wearing a wetsuit over my swimsuit, so I wore my swimsuit, but the equipment provided included only a helmet, shoes, and a jacket. Everyone else was dressed in T-shirts or rash guards over their swimsuits, and shorts or leggings. I didn't have those, so I ended up wearing pajamas (short-sleeved & relaxed fit) over my swimsuit, which felt quite silly and embarrassing, especially since it would be captured in photos (though it could make for a funny story). I think it would be wise to consider your outfit if you participate!
もともと、SUP@マングローブとバラス島上陸のシュノーケルツアーを申し込んでいましたが、バラス島周辺のコンディションが悪く、「キャンセルしますか?別のツアーにしますか?」の問い合わせが前日にありました。折角なのでトレッキングとSUP@マングローブでツアーを申し込んだ所、それがもう大正解!インストラクターのマツコさんはまだ来て数ヶ月との事でしたが、西表島の事をよくご存知で、道路工事が途中で中断してしまった話や、ヤマネコの博物館(?)のシュミレーターゲームの話などなど、移動中に小ネタを沢山話してくれました。到着後、皆でポイントまで簡単な山登りをしながら移動。途中、西表島の動植物についても紹介してもらいました。たまたま参加していたメンバーが、私達夫婦を含めて4カップル。離島マスター夫婦、お喋り関西人夫婦(四国)、穏やかだけど気さくに話せる夫婦、とメンバーも皆親しみやすく、飛び込みを始めとしたアクティビティを通じて仲良くなりました。普段寡黙な主人も相当楽しかったようで、飛び込み時にアレンジを加えたり、凄く楽しんでいました。アクティビティ終わりには離島マスター夫婦からおススメの食事処を教えてもらい、早速訪ねてみました。他の夫婦達も離島マスター夫婦から別の離島の話を聞いたりして楽しんでました。本当に最高の思い出をありがとうございました、インストラクターのマツコさん、それぞれの夫婦の皆さま!残りの旅を楽しんでください!
そうだ、あとは、服装ですが、私は水着の上からウェットスーツを着用すると思ったので、水着を着て行ったのですが、装備として渡されるのは、ヘルメットとシューズとジャケットのみなので、皆は水着の上にTシャツやラッシュガード、下はスパッツにハーパンのような格好でした。私はそれらの用意がなかったので、水着の上からパジャマ(半袖&リラコ)を着用して臨みましたが、大分ダサくて恥ずかしかったですし笑、写真にも残ってしまうので(ネタにはなりますが笑)ご参加される際は、格好を考えたほうがいいかもなって思いました。

We participated as a family. My son and I got seasick, and the whole family had to give up on the tour midway. Despite giving up on the tour, we were still able to have lunch, and the follow-up service was very kind.
家族で参加。私と息子が波酔いしてツアーを家族全員途中で断念しました。ツアー断念したにもかかわらず昼食もいただけて、その後の対応もすごく親切にしていただきました。

Snorkeling at Barasu Island in the morning.
In the afternoon, we did mangrove stand-up paddleboarding.
It was a full-day course, and it ended so quickly because we had so much fun.
Our guide was Gakki.
Her powerful guidance was at just the right pace—not too fast and not too slow!
Thanks to her, we talked about so many things throughout the day about the ocean and the mangroves, making it an incredibly enjoyable day!
I made great memories on my first visit to Iriomote Island!
朝からバラス島シュノーケリング。
お昼からはマングローブsup。
一日コースでしたが楽しくあっという間に終わりました。
案内してくれたのはガッキーさん。
パワフルな彼女の案内ははやすぎず暇すぎず丁度良いスピードでした!
お陰様で海もマングローブも色んな事を終始お話ししてもらえてめっちゃくちゃ楽しい1日でした!
初めての西表島にいい思い出ができました!
