All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

I only stayed one night on Iriomote Island, so my schedule was a bit hectic. However, I definitely wanted to experience the forest and kayaking, so I was able to find just the right course. They picked me up at the hotel, and after dropping off my luggage at the shop and putting on marine shoes, we set off on the tour. There were a total of four of us, including two other people. We started with a mangrove kayaking experience. Paddling leisurely through the great outdoors was truly refreshing; my arms did get sore, but it was a pleasant time. After that, we trekked to the Pinaisara Falls, which took about 30 minutes. There were some places where we had to use our hands to climb, making it surprisingly challenging. Our guide, Aya, introduced us to various creatures and plants and guided us carefully. That day, we happened to see a giant eel. Afterward, we swam at Pinaisara Falls and had lunch. On the way back, we retraced our steps along the same route. I experienced severe muscle pain the next day... I realized how out of shape I was. It was so much fun, and the moment it ended, I smiled and said, "That was great!" I definitely want to participate again!

西表島には1泊のみだったので、ちょっと慌ただしいスケジュールでした。でも、絶対森とカヤックは体験したかったので、ちょうどいいコースを発見することができました。ホテルまでお迎えにきてもらい、ショップで荷物を預けたり、マリンシューズを履いて、ツアー出発です。私たちのほかに2人の方と合計4人でした。はじめはマングローブカヤックからスタートです。大自然の中をゆったりと漕いでいくのは本当に気持ちよく、腕は痛くなりますが、心地いい時間でした。その後はピナイサーラの滝までトレッキングです。30分くらいでしょうか。
手を使って登る場所もあって以外とハードでした。ガイドのあやさんはいろんな生物や植物を紹介して、丁寧に進んでくれます。その日はたまたまオオウナギが見れました。その後、ピナイサーラの滝で泳いで、お昼を食べました。帰りはそのまま逆のコースを戻ります。私は次の日筋肉痛が酷かったです。。自分の運動不足さを実感しました。とても楽しくて終わった瞬間はあー楽しかったって笑顔で言ってました。また絶対参加したいです！！

We decided on this tour for our fifth grader and first-year middle school boy who wanted an active experience. On the day of the tour, we gathered at Uehara Port and heard it could get crowded coming from Ishigaki Island, so we arrived early to depart. We felt relieved to meet the staff waiting for us on-site, but this year there has been a dry rainy season, and the cave's sanitary conditions weren't good, so we quickly changed to canyoning for the afternoon. After moving to the shop, we put our valuables in a waterproof bag we borrowed and received a canoeing lesson before heading to the location. There were tandem options available, but they assured us that our fifth grader could manage alone. While being watched over and given advice, we trekked for 40 minutes, listening to stories about the flora and fauna, and were healed by the negative ions at Pinai Saara Falls. We enjoyed homemade rice balls from our guide for lunch and returned via the same route before heading to canyoning. We experienced jumping in from upstream, and the descent downstream was filled with excitement for the kids on a hot summer day, making for a very active and enjoyable day. It went by in a flash, but we truly had a fun day. I would love to sign up for the same tour again next time. Lastly, I was happy to receive many photos as well. For those looking to spend an active day, even though the cave plan changed, the staff were kind and I highly recommend it. Thank you!

小学５年と中１男子、アクティブな体験したいとこのツアーに決定。当日は上原港に集合ということで石垣島から混雑すると聞いて早め待機で出港。現地で待っていただいてるスタッフの方と合流でき安心したのですが今年は空梅雨で洞窟の衛生環境がよくないらしく急きょお昼から代案のキャニオニングに変更。一度店の方へ移動させていただいてから貴重品のみお借りした防水バックにいれてカヌーのこぎ方レクチャーし現地へ。２人のりもあるそうだけど小学５年でも一人で大丈夫、と見守ってアドバイスいただきながら片道４０分、動植物のお話聞きながらトレッキング、ピナイサーラの滝でマイナスイオンに癒されました。ガイドさんの手作りおにぎり、昼食いただき元来たルートで戻り、次はキャニオニングへ。上流から飛び込みも体験しつつ下流までの沢下りは暑い夏日に子供たちもおおはしゃぎでとてもアクティブに心地よくハードに１日満喫できました。あっという間でしたが、本当に楽しい１日過ごせました。今度もまた同じツアーで申し込みたいくらいです。また最後にたくさんの写メもいただけ嬉しかったです。アクティブに１日過ごされたい方洞窟は変更になりましたがスタッフの方も優しくおすすめです。ありがとうございました！

Unfortunately, due to bad weather and high waves on the day of the tour, we couldn't reach the sea turtle encounter point. Although it was cloudy, we were able to land on Barasu Island. On Iriomote Island, we enjoyed nature with a 30-minute hike and a canoeing excursion. Since I don't often have the opportunity to ride a canoe, it was a great experience.

残念なことにツアー当日の天気が悪く、波が高かったためウミガメ遭遇ポイントは行けませんでした。
曇っていましたが、バラス島には上陸できました。
西表島では30分程度のハイキングとカヌーでの散策で、自然を満喫できました。
カヌーに乗る機会もあまりないため、いい経験になりました。

Kayaking in the gentle flow, the views from above the waterfall and from below the waterfall were all amazing, and I had the best time.

Additionally, the staff who accompanied us on the tour were very polite and provided excellent service.

If I have the chance to go to Iriomote Island again, this will definitely be a tour I want to participate in.

穏やかな流れの中のカヤック、
滝の上から眺める景色、滝の下から眺める景色、
全てが最高で最高の時間を過ごすことができました。

また、ツアーで同行してくれたスタッフの方がとても丁寧で素晴らしい対応でした。

また西表島に行くことがあったら、必ず参加したいツアーになります。

It was a really nice experience and very romantic and tranquil. Star gazing was really fun. As person, who lives in a big city in Europe, I don't get the chance to see so many stars. Guide was very friendly and savvy.
No physically fitness required.

I experienced this with a friend, and the guide provided thorough explanations, making it a truly enjoyable day! We got to do activities like canoeing, waterfall play, and cave exploration—things we had never experienced before! It was really fun. Thank you so much!

友達と二人で体験させていただいたのですが、ガイドの方が丁寧に説明してくださり本当に楽しい1日になりました‼︎
カヌーに滝遊び、洞窟体験と今まで経験したことのない遊びをいっぱいさせていただきました‼︎
本当に楽しかったです♪ありがとうございました♪

I visited Iriomote Island for my graduation trip. Since I was there, I wanted to have an experience that I couldn't easily have elsewhere, so I chose this activity. On the day of the trip, we couldn't go snorkeling due to the waves, but we were able to switch to cave exploration, which left me very satisfied. The guide was also very kind, and I got along well with the other participants, which I think is one of the attractions of the experience. We paddled canoes, trekked towards a waterfall, and explored caves, making it a truly packed and fantastic graduation trip. I hope to go back someday for a snorkeling redo! (laughs)

卒業旅行で西表島を訪れました。
せっかく来たなら、なかなかできないような体験をしたいと思い、このアクティビティを選択。
当日波の影響でシュノーケリングはできませんでしたが、洞窟探検に変更していただくことができ、大満足でした。
また、ガイドの方もとても親切でしたし、一緒に行動した他の参加者の方とも仲良くなれたので、そこも魅力の一つかと思います。
カヌーを漕いだり、滝を目指してトレッキングをしたり、洞窟に行ったりと、本当に盛りだくさんで最高の卒業旅行になりました。
いつかまたシュノーケリングのリベンジをしに行きたいと思います！(笑)

I forgot to post this, but it's been a while... We canoed close to the waterfall and then trekked to the waterfall! We played in the water at the waterfall and had rice balls nearby. In the afternoon, we explored three caves! The trekking path was harder than I expected, but the excitement when we reached the waterfall was immense. The caves were natural, each with a different character, and there were some very large stalactites, as well as countless icicle-like formations on the ceiling that sparkled when light was shone on them. It was also fun to hear the guide talk about the mangroves and the flora and fauna of the island. I was very satisfied with the full day of activities. It was a tour that made me want to participate again. (I have the images saved on my computer, but I couldn't upload them successfully.)
Now that I can upload images, I have done so!

投稿を忘れておりだいぶたっておりますが・・・滝の近くまでカヌーで進み、その後、滝までトレッキング！滝で水遊び、周辺でおにぎりを食べました。午後から３つの洞窟を探検しました！トレッキングの道は思っていたよりハードめでしたが、その分、滝に到達したときは感激が大きかったです。洞窟は自然のままの洞窟で、それぞれ表情が違い、鍾乳石は、とても大きいものがあったり、天井に無数のつららがあったり、光を当てると粒子がきらきらしていました。ガイドさんがマングローブなど動植物や島のお話をしてくれたのも楽しかったです。１日盛りだくさんの内容で満足できました。また、参加したいと思えるツアーでした。（画像をパソコンに取り込んでありますがうまくアップロードできなかったです。）
画像がアップできるようになったのでアップしました！

It was a rainy day for canoeing and hiking, but thanks to the warm soba and drinks provided, I was completely soaked yet felt no cold at all. I also encountered many plants and animals that are not found in Honshu, which was very satisfying. I recommend participating in comfortable pants and such.

The guide was very kind and cheerful. I felt the service was good as they sent the photos taken on the same day. It seems to get crowded in the summer, but from October to November, the weather is not cold and you can fully enjoy the scenery. I highly recommend this tour.

当日は雨のカヌー、ハイキングでしたが温かいそばと飲み物を用意して頂いたのもあり、びしょ濡れでしたが全然寒くなかったです。また、トレッキング中に本州には居ない動植物ともたくさん出会えまして満足です。歩き易いパンツ等で参加がオススメです。

ガイドさんはとても親切で明るい方でした。撮った写真も当日中に送って頂きましてサービスも良かったと感じました。夏場は混んでいるようですし、10-11月は寒くなくて景色を満喫出来ます。オススメのツアーです。

I participated with a friend. The tide was high and the waves were a bit rough, but the island made of coral, Barasu Island, was truly beautiful. We were able to see the sea turtles while they were napping. In the second half, the weather improved, and I was thrilled to see coral and colorful fish that looked like something out of a dragon palace, as well as a sleeping shark! We enjoyed a leisurely handmade lunch with our guide on Hatoma Island, who shared many fun stories with us. After swimming a lot and feeling tired, we relaxed on the beach during our time exploring Hatoma Island. I was also able to take a shower when we got back, so I was very satisfied.

友人と2人で参加しました。大潮で波が少し荒かったのですが、珊瑚でできた島、バラス島も本当にきれいでした。
ウミガメはお昼寝中でしたがバッチリ見れました。
後半はお天気も良くなり、竜宮城のような珊瑚とカラフルなお魚、またネムリブカなど見る事ができて大興奮！
鳩間島でのんびり手づくりランチをガイドさんと食べて、楽しいお話もたくさんしてくれました。たくさん泳いで、疲れていたので鳩間島散策の時間は海岸でのんびり。帰ってからシャワーも浴びられましたし、満足でした。

I was able to see many beautiful fish while snorkeling. Baras Island was so beautiful that I was moved! I definitely want to go again. It was a short course, but it was just the right amount of time for us without being too tiring, and we had a great experience.

シュノーケルでたくさんの綺麗な魚を見る事が出来ました☆バラス島は綺麗すぎて感激！ぜひまた行きたいです。短いコースでしたが疲れすぎず私達にはちょうど良い時間でとてもいい体験が出来ました。

I was able to see many fish while snorkeling! The guide was friendly during the canoeing and trekking, teaching us various things, and it was really fun. They also took many photos at the waterfall and showed us great spots! It was a fulfilling day that went by in no time.

ｼｭﾉｰｹﾘﾝｸﾞでは、たくさんの魚が見れました☆
ｶﾇｰ、ﾄﾚｯｷﾝｸﾞでは、ｶﾞｲﾄﾞさんも親しみやすく、色々なことを教えてくださり、とっても楽しかったです♪滝でもたくさん写真を撮ってくださったり、ィィﾎﾟｲﾝﾄも教えてくれました！！
充実した1日で、あっという間でした(^-^)

We participated as a couple. There were two other participants, making a total of four people. The guide was a young staff member from Iriomote Monsoon, and they were very efficient. They provided detailed explanations about the plants and took many photos, which they sent to us later, creating wonderful memories. During the trekking, they informed us in advance about points where injuries could easily occur, allowing us to proceed with caution.

For lunch, we had two handmade rice balls, pickles, fried chicken, and a boiled egg. It was a simple meal, but it tasted really good. The rice balls were made with one cup of rice, so I think even men would be satisfied.

One thing to note is that after gathering, the pace moves quickly, so it's better to pack lightly and be ready to move without unnecessary items. Also, you generally can't go to the restroom during the tour (we go to the restroom at Iriomote Monsoon before heading out for trekking), so be careful not to drink too much the day before!

It was a lot of fun. Thank you very much.

夫婦2人で参加。他にも2人参加者がいたので、計4人でした。ガイドさんは西表モンスーンの若いスタッフさん1名だけですが、手際が良かったです。植物など詳しく解説して下さったり、写真を沢山取ってあとで送って頂いて、すごくいい思い出になりました。トレッキング中は、怪我しやすいポイントなど事前に知らせてもらえるので、注意しながら進むことが出来ました。
昼食は手作りのおにぎり2つとお漬物、からあげ、ゆで卵でした。シンプルな昼食ですがすごく美味しく感じました。おにぎりは1合分あるので、男性でも満足できるかと思います。
注意点としては、集合後はせわしなく進行していくので、余計なものは持ち物は持たないですぐ動けるようにまとめておいた方がいいです。
あと、基本的にツアー中はトイレに行けないので（西表モンスーンで済ませてからトレッキングに向かいます。）、前日の飲み過ぎ注意！です。
とても楽しかったです。ありがとうございました。

The waves were high in the morning, so we couldn't see any sea turtles. What a shame.
Bara Island is a beautiful place, and the sound of the waves and coral created a magical atmosphere. It felt like a dream.
We had lunch on Hatoma Island. It was a peaceful spot, and we enjoyed a leisurely stroll for about an hour.
We also had plenty of time for snorkeling, and we were healed by the beautiful coral and fish.

朝から波が高くてウミガメは見ることが出来ませんでした。残念。
バラス島はキレイな場所で、波とさんごの音が幻想的な空間でした。夢のようでした。
鳩間島でお昼ごはんを食べました。穏やかな場所で、1時間くらいゆっくり散策出来てよかったです。
シュノーケリングもたっぷり時間があって、キレイなさんごと魚に癒されました。

First of all, thank you very much for your incredibly kind support! The content was just right, and the sense of achievement when we reached the waterfall was exceptional! If I had to suggest an improvement, I think it would have been even better if the lunch provided at the waterfall had more of an Okinawan feel to it. (There was a place next door serving Yaeyama soba, which I was a bit envious of.) That said, the homemade lunch was also very delicious. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you!

まず、誠に親切な対応をしていただき、ありがとうございました！内容もちょうど良く、滝に到達したときの達成感はひとしおでした！強いて改善点を申し上げるならば、滝到達時のお弁当を沖縄感のあるものであればもっと良かったかなと思いました。(八重山そば？を振舞っているとこが隣にあり、ちょっと羨ましかったので。)とはいえ、手作りお弁当もとても美味しかったです。非常に良い思い出になりました。ありがとうございました！

I was moved by my first visit to Iriomote Island.
We rode canoes and aimed for the Pinai Sara Falls on a trekking adventure.
Since the trail is quite challenging, I think the kids (ages 13 and 9) will need two bottles of water each for the August tour.
However, the waterfall was incredibly refreshing, and the homemade lunch was very delicious, making all the fatigue disappear.

The cave exploration in the afternoon was also quite something!
I was amazed at how we could pass through such places, and the world inside the cave was completely devoid of light.
It got pretty muddy, but on the contrary, we had a blast.
(A helmet is a must!)

I actually wanted to give a maximum rating, but there were quite a few fingers in the photos taken by the guide, and it was hard to hear the explanations towards the back, so I rated it ★★★★.
The tour itself was flawless.

The Ishigaki Island lizards were incredibly beautiful! ♥

初めての西表島に感動しました。
カヌーに乗って、トレッキングでピナイサーラの滝を目指します。
なかなかの道なので８月のツアーでは子供たち（１３歳・９歳）の飲料水は２本づつ必要かと。
ただ、滝の水はとても気持ち良く、手作りのランチもとてもおいしく、疲れも吹っ飛びます。

午後からの洞窟めぐりもなかなかのモノ！
こんな所通れるの～とか、洞窟の中で光の全くない世界。
結構ドロドロになりますが、逆に思い切り楽しめました。
（ヘルメットは必須です）

本当は評価マックスにしたかったのですが、ガイドさんに撮ってもらった写真に結構指が入っていたのと、説明が後ろの方まで聞き取りにくかったので★★★★でした。
ツアー自体は文句なしです。

石垣島トカゲ、すっごくきれいでした♥

I was simply amazed by the experience of being surrounded by nature while canoeing. The water at the waterfall was a bit cold on May 1st, but I thoroughly enjoyed playing in the water. The caves were more impressive than I expected, and I think this tour is a great deal.

カヌーでは自然に囲まれ初めての体験にただただ感動しました。滝壺では5/1で少し冷たいですが、思いっきり水遊びを楽しめました。洞窟も思った以上に迫力満点で、このツアーはお得だと思います。

I participated with a friend, and the view from the top of the waterfall was truly amazing. The unique plants of Iriomote made it feel almost foreign, as if I were in another country.

友人と二人で参加しましたが滝の上まで上がったときの景色が本当に素晴らしかったです。西表ならではの植物など「日本？？」と思うくらい異国な感じがしました．

I visited in mid-June, and it was great that the rain from the previous day had stopped and the weather was nice.
The view from above the waterfall was amazing!
There were many reptiles and insects along the way, and it was really nice to see things that I don't usually get to see.
After walking in the heat, the plunge pool at the waterfall felt really refreshing!
I definitely want to visit again.

６月の中旬に訪れたんですが、前日からの雨も止んで天候もよくて良かったです。
滝の上の景色も最高でした☆
途中で爬虫類や昆虫が多くいますが普段見れない物を見ることができるのとても良かったです
。
暑い中、歩いた後の滝壺へのだいぶは本当に気持ちがよかったです！
ぜひまた訪れてみたいと思いました

Of course, Balas Island was great, but snorkeling at the points with coral reefs was very pleasant. I was also able to see sea turtles, which made for wonderful memories. The instructors were very nice people too!

バラス島はもちろんですがサンゴ礁のあるポイントでのシュノーケリングがとても気持ち良かったです。ウミガメも見ることが出来て良い思い出になりました。そしてインストラクターの方はとても良い人たちでした！

I wanted to go snorkeling in a beautiful sea, so I participated.

As a result, it met my expectations. I was able to see sea turtles and swim with many fish.

I would like to participate again when I revisit Iriomote.

綺麗な海でシュノーケルがしたいと思い参加しました。

結果、期待通りでした。
ウミガメにも会うことができ、沢山の魚とも泳ぐことができました。

西表再訪の際にはまた参加したいです。

My first snorkeling experience!
It was a tour while a typhoon was approaching, but I was able to participate with peace of mind!
I was completely satisfied with the crystal-clear sea, beautiful coral, and the wonderful guide♥︎ I was able to relax! The onigiri I had for lunch was so delicious that it moved me♪
I want to go to Hatoma Island again!
I highly recommend this tour❤︎

初めてのシュノーケリング！
そして、台風が近づいている中でのツアーでしたが、安心して参加出来ました！
透き通った海と、綺麗なサンゴと、素敵過ぎるガイドさんに大満足です♥︎のんびり過ごすことが出来ました！昼食で食べたおにぎりが美味し過ぎて感動♪
もう一回鳩間島に行きたい！
このツアーはオススメです❤︎

Barasu Island changes shape and number depending on the tides, which made me wonder what kind of island it really is... and it turned out to be an island formed by clusters of coral, both large and small. The surrounding sea was a beautiful blue, and I was very satisfied to see the corals, lovely fish, and even sea turtles.

I stayed at a small pension, and they came to pick me up properly. The car had waterproof seats, so I could sit down even while wet. Since I only did snorkeling, I ended up returning without changing.

I boarded the tour company's boat at Uehara Port and headed for Barasu Island. I was worried about seasickness, but I was so captivated by the scenery that I arrived in no time, so it wasn't a problem. We started with a simple snorkeling lesson at Barasu Island. They carefully taught us how to use the equipment and gave us tips. We swam from shallow areas to slightly deeper ones. Even if it's been a while since I last swam, this was not scary at all. I saw many colorful fish swimming gracefully among the corals.

It had been a while since my last snorkeling experience, but I felt secure knowing the guide was with us, and they led us while letting out a rope in case anything happened. Once I got used to it, we snorkeled around on our own, and when we got tired, we took a little break on the island with some tea and brown sugar. After leaving Barasu Island, we went to a point to see sea turtles and clownfish. Sea turtles were a bit hard to spot, but they guided us well at the point, and I was able to see two of them. I wanted to see them swimming, but there's nothing that can be done about that.

It was a short half-day course that was enjoyable and efficient, and I was very satisfied. However, since Barasu Island is a popular spot in Iriomote, many boats came in the morning, making the snorkeling a bit crowded. I heard that it gets much less crowded in the afternoon. I also thought it would be nice for women if the boat had a shaded roof and a restroom.

バラス島は潮の関係が時期によって形が変わったり数が増えたりする、いったいどんな島なんだろう・・・と思ったら、ほんとに大小の珊瑚が集まってできた島でした。
周辺の海の青さと、珊瑚ときれいなお魚達、ウミガメまで見れて、大満足です。

小さなペンションに宿泊してましたがちゃんとお迎えに来てくれました。
車は防水シートが敷いてあるので、濡れたままでも座れます。シュノーケルだけだったので、結局着替えずに帰ってきました。

上原港で催行会社のボートに乗り、バラス島を目指します。
船酔いが心配でしたが、景色に見とれていたらあっという間に着いたので問題ありませんでした。
バラス島でまず簡単なシュノーケリング講習。
丁寧に使い方とコツを教えてくれます。
浅いところからまず泳いで行って、少し深めのところまでいきます。
泳ぐのが久しぶりでも、これなら怖くありません。
珊瑚にカラフルなお魚たちが優雅に泳ぐ姿が沢山見られました。
久しぶりのシュノーケリングでしたが、ガイドさんがちゃんとついていてくれること、また何かあったときに引っ張れるロープなようなものを流しながら先導してくれたので安心でした。
慣れてきたら、自分達で周辺をシュノーケリング、疲れたら島でお茶と黒糖でちょっとひとやすみ。
バラス島を離れ、ウミガメとニモ(かくれくまのみ)のポイントへ行きます。
ウミガメはちょっと見つけづらいですが、ちゃんとポイントで教えてくれたのでしっかり2匹見れました。
泳ぐ姿が見たかったけど、こればかりは仕方がないですね。
半日の短い時間でサクッと楽しめるコース、効率も良く大満足です。
ただ、バラス島はやっぱり西表では人気スポットのため、午前には多くの船が来ていてシュノーケルもやや混みでした。午後になるとかなり空いているそうです。
女性には、ボートに日陰となる屋根と、お手洗いがあると嬉しいなと思いました。

The weather was nice, and I had a very enjoyable time. The sea around Balas Island wasn't as beautiful as I had expected, which was a bit disappointing, but the spots around Hatoma Island were very beautiful. Neither location had strong currents, so even small children can enjoy it. My only complaint is that the free time for snorkeling was short; overall, I couldn't snorkel as freely as I would have liked. The course was predetermined, like during diving. However, I love snorkeling, so I would like to participate again. Thank you very much.

天気も良く、大変楽しい時間を過ごさせていただきました。
バラス島の海は思ったほどきれいではなく、少し残念でしたが、
鳩間島のポイントは大変きれいでした。
どちらも潮の流れがきつくないので、小さな子供でも楽しめます。
唯一の不満点は、シュノーケルの自由時間が短かい、
全体的にシュノーケルをあまり自由にできなかったことです。
ダイビングの時のようにコースが決まっていました。
でも、シュノーケルは大好きなのでまた参加したいと思います。
ありがとうございました。

I participated in a day trip from Ishigaki. I was picked up at Uehara Port, and there were four of us traveling alone, including myself. Since it was during the rainy season, I was prepared for rain, but it turned out to be sunny! Our guide took us to two snorkeling points, and among them, Barasu Island was amazing. There seemed to be turtles as well, but I got so caught up in taking photos that I ended up feeling seasick and had to give up in the second half. It would be better to have an underwater camera.

In the afternoon, we headed for a waterfall with canoeing and trekking. Our guide was knowledgeable about the flora and fauna of Iriomote Island. I heard that at Iriomote Island Monsoon, where we were taken care of, you can also stay overnight, so next time I want to enjoy Iriomote Island with an overnight stay.

石垣から日帰りで参加しました。
上原港でピックアップで、女性一人旅の方が自分含め4人いらっしゃいました。梅雨時でしたので雨を覚悟していましたが晴れました！ガイドさんに二つのシュノーケルポイントに案内して頂き、その中でもバラス島は素晴らしかったです。亀もいたみたいですが、写真を撮るのに夢中になってしまい、後半酔ってギブアップしてしまいました。水中カメラはあった方が良いです。
午後からは滝を目指してカヌーとトレッキングです。ガイドさんは西表島の動植物にも詳しく勉強されていました。お世話になった西表島モンスーンさんでは宿泊もできるそうなので次回は泊まりで西表島を堪能したいです。

It was very refreshing to experience negative ions and forest bathing. Canoeing was a lot of fun, and the trekking was at a perfect distance.

Although we couldn't go to the turtle point due to rough seas, we were able to swim very close to sea turtles around Baras Island. It was healing. I was very satisfied! Thank you for your hospitality.

マイナスイオンや森林浴ができて、とても清々しかったです。
カヌーもとても楽しかったし、トレッキングも程良い距離でよかったです。

海が荒れてウミガメポイントには行けなかったのですが、バラス島周辺でもウミガメととても近くで泳げました。癒されました。
大満足でした！
お世話になりました。ありがとうございました。

I participated alone, but I had a great time. First, we spent about an hour canoeing, followed by an hour of trekking. Along the way, we received explanations about the plants and animals. The top of the waterfall is a bit scary, but the view is amazing. We had lunch while enjoying the stunning scenery at the top of the waterfall! On the way back, we went down to the base of the waterfall for tea time. After that, we returned by canoe. I highly recommend this tour.

一人で参加しましたが、楽しめました。
まずカヌー１時間程度、その後トレッキングで１時間ほど。
途中、植物や動物の説明を受けられます。滝の上はちょっと
怖いけど景色が素晴らしいです。滝の上で絶景を眺めながら昼ごはん！
帰りは下におりて滝つぼでティータイム。その後カヌーで帰ってきます。
お勧めのツアーです。

Trekking and canoeing were both my first experiences. I was filled with anxiety, but the staff explained everything clearly, and even as a beginner, I was able to manage it smoothly. I definitely want to bring my children next time. The trekking path was steeper than I expected. I was already feeling muscle pain on the way back. I thought it would be manageable, but it might be tougher than I anticipated. It was challenging for someone like me who lacks stamina. However, I saw children around three years old participating, so I think it's suitable for small kids as well.

トレッキングもカヌーも初体験。
不安で一杯でしたが、
担当の方がわかりやすく教えてくれて、初心者の私でもすんなりこなすことが出来ました。
次はぜひ子供達も連れて来たいと思いました。
トレッキングは思ったよりも険しい道。
帰り道ですでに筋肉痛でした。
これなら〜っと思って参加しましたが、
思っている以上にキツイかもしれません。
体力のない私はきつかったです。
ですが、3歳くらいかな？
そのくらいの子供でも出来ていたので、小さなお子様でも大丈夫だと思います。

My first canoe experience was not difficult and was fun. The guide taught us various things about the plants. We walk over rocky areas to get to the waterfall, but even beginners can easily make it.

初カヌーは難しくなくて楽しかったです。
ガイドさんは植物の事も色々教えてくれました
滝までは岩場を歩きますが、初心者でも簡単に行けます

A day trip from Ishigaki Island to Iriomote Island. I was happy to find this plan because I wanted to experience canoeing, trekking, and a water buffalo cart all in one go. The canoeing and trekking were just the right length for beginners, so I managed to avoid muscle soreness. Since the ferry to Uehara Port was canceled, we went to Ohara Port, but the downside was that we had to take a local bus to the shop. We were lucky to get seats, but some people had to stand for 30 minutes. It's a bit of a distance from the bus stop.

石垣島から西表島への日帰り旅行。
カヌー、トレッキング、水牛車を全て体験したかったので、このプランがあって嬉しかったです。
カヌーやトレッキングも初心者には程よい長さで、筋肉痛にならずに済みました。
上原港行きが欠航時は大原港集合とのことだったので、大原港に行きましたが路線バスでショップまで行かなくてはならないのがマイナスポイントでした。私たちはラッキーで座れましたが、30分間立ってる方もいました。バス停留所から少し距離があります。
