All Reviews for 浮潛（シュノーケリング）

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。

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 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。

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 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！

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。

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。

This was my third time snorkeling in Miyako Island, and the service from the guide, as well as the quality of the photos taken by them, was outstanding! The day before, I participated in a snorkeling tour with another company but didn't get to see the sea turtles I was hoping for, so I booked this tour for a second chance. On the day of the tour, I was able to see several sea turtles!

While other companies only took a few photos, this one captured many throughout the entire time, which I thought was a wonderful gesture. The finished photos were of professional quality, making for even better memories. We received over 50 photos of us! (With the other company, I only had about five photos of myself, and they weren't very good.)

Additionally, although I had trouble reaching them by phone on the day, they called me multiple times. There were two groups participating: us as a couple and a family with children, and they tailored their approach to match our swimming abilities. On the way back, they also recommended spots and restaurants in Miyako Island, showing perfect consideration.

If I come to Miyako Island again, I will definitely use their services! Thank you very much!

宮古島でのシュノーケリングは3度目ですが、ガイドの方の対応はもちろん、ガイドの方が撮ってくださる写真の出来含め、ここがダントツで良かったです！
前日に他の業者のシュノーケリングに参加しましたが、目当てのウミガメが見れず、リベンジで予約しました。当日は見事、何匹ものウミガメに会うことができました！！
写真も他の業者は数枚のところを、こちらは時間いっぱい撮ってくださり、それだけでも素敵な対応だなぁと思ったのに、出来上がった写真はプロ並みの綺麗さで、更に良い思い出になりました＾＾
私たちを撮っていただいた写真は50枚を超えていました！！(他業者だと自身が写っているのは5枚程度だし、写りもあまり良くありませんでした。)

他にも、当日なかなか電話に出られませんでしたが何度も掛けてくださったり、私たちカップルとお子さん連れ家族の2組の参加でしたが、それぞれの泳ぎ具合に合わせた対応をしてくださったり、帰りには宮古島のおすすめスポットやご飯屋さんを教えてくださり、心遣いも完璧でした。

宮古島に来たら、また利用させていただきます＾＾ありがとうございました！！

I went snorkeling for the first time in Miyako Island!!
Making a reservation was really easy!!
Above all, our guide Wataru was truly the best✨
He even thought of us, coming from Kobe, and brought us recommended taco rice for lunch, which was really delicious!!
He was great at talking, and we had a very enjoyable time!

The weather wasn't very good, but we were able to see sea turtles safely and had a wonderful time!

He also recommended many places for dinner, lunch, cafes, and beaches, allowing us to fully enjoy Miyako Island (*^^*)
Thank you very much.

初めて宮古島でシュノーケルをしました！！
予約も簡単にできました！！
何より担当のわたる君は本当に最高でした✨
神戸から来た私たちに、お昼ご飯のお心遣いまでしてくれてオススメのタコライスを買ってきてくれて、それがまた本当に美味しかったです！！
お話上手で、とても楽しい時間でした！

天気はあまり良くなかったのですが、、
ウミガメにも無事に会えてとてもいい時間を
過ごす事ができました！

ディナー、ランチ、カフェ、ビーチ等
オススメのところも沢山教えてくださり
宮古島を堪能できました(*^^*)
ありがとうございました。

I participated with my dad when I was 9 years old.
We started with a simple explanation and practice in a shallow area.
Since I could touch the bottom and had a float, it was reassuring for those who couldn't swim because they could pull us along.
We started looking for sea turtles and found one in about a minute (it might have been the fastest ever!).
We took a lot of beautiful pictures, and it became an amazing memory.
After that, they took us to a spot with tropical fish, and we saw so many!

Our guide, Wataru, was kind and fantastic!!
Since he was from the local area, he told us about various shops and spots.
The Okinawa soba restaurant he recommended was delicious.
I hope to do this again!

9歳です。パパと参加しました
始めに浅いところで簡単な説明と練習をしました
足もつくし浮き輪を持っているので泳げない人も引っ張ってくれるので安心です
ウミガメを探し始めて１分くらいで発見（今までで一番早いかもって）
たくさんきれいな写真を撮ってくれて最高な思い出になりました
そのあとは熱帯魚のスポットに連れて行ってくれていっぱい会えました!

ガイドのワタル君は優しくて最高でした！！
地元出身との事でいろいろなお店やスポットも教えてくれました
教えて頂いた沖縄そばのお店も美味しかったです
またお願いしますね

It was my first time snorkeling, but Kometchi's personality was wonderful, and I had a great time. I was also very satisfied that we could capture the beautiful moments in the sea of Miyako Island with drone footage!

初めてのシュノーケリングでしたがこめっちさんの人柄もすばらしく楽しい時間を過ごせました。ドローン撮影も綺麗な宮古島の海にいた瞬間を映像として残せたので大満足です！

I participated in a snorkeling tour for the first time in Miyako Island! I was considering snorkeling on my own, but it was so much fun to swim in spots where there were lots of sea turtles and colorful coral teeming with fish! I signed up for a plan that included photos, and I thought I would only receive a few, but I was amazed to receive dozens of beautiful pictures of me swimming with the sea turtles! The instructor, Kometchi, was cheerful and friendly, and even after the tour ended, he shared many recommendations for spots in Miyako Island. I highly recommend this tour! Thank you!

宮古島で初めてシュノーケルツアーに参加しました！
自分達でシュノーケルをしようかな？とも思ってましたが、
ウミガメがたくさんいるスポットや、魚がたくさん見れるサンゴスポットで泳げてすごい楽しかったです！！
申し込んだのは写真付きのプランで、写真は貰えても数枚かな？と思っていたのですが、
何十枚ものウミガメと泳いでる綺麗な写真を送ってくださり感動しました！
インストラクターのこめっちさんは明るく気さくな人で、ツアー終了後も宮古島のおすすめスポットをたくさん教えてくれました。
ほんとにオススメのツアーです☺︎！ありがとうございました！

I participated in this activity on Miyako Island for the first time! The tour guide, "Komecchi," was very easy to talk to, and I had a great time swimming with the sea turtles, which I had been looking forward to! It was also helpful that at the end of the tour, I received a lot of recommendations for spots and gourmet information on Miyako Island! Thank you very much!!!

初めての宮古島で今回のアクティビティに参加しました！
ツアーガイド「こめっちさん」はとても話しやすく、念願のウミガメと泳ぐことができて楽しい時間を過ごせました！
ツアー終わりに宮古島のオススメスポットやグルメ情報をたくさん教えてもらえたのも助かりました！
ありがとうございました！！！

I had a great time snorkeling with a friendly instructor! I was able to see the sea turtles I was hoping for, along with many corals and fish, so I was very satisfied! There are also considerations and care for those who might be a bit scared of the ocean or have a fear of it, making it recommended for women and children as well!

気さくなインスタラクターの方で楽しくシュノーケリングさせて頂きました！目当てのウミガメに会えて、たくさんのサンゴやお魚も見ることができたので大満足です！！海が少し怖い人や苦手意識がある人でも楽しめる配慮や気遣いもあるので女性や子供にもおすすめです！

We participated as a couple. I was anxious because I can't swim, but they kept pulling my float, and even someone like me was able to go out to the sea and see sea turtles. When we returned, I got seasick and felt unwell. They even bought me a drink, which was very kind of them. I am grateful for their kindness. It was a really great experience, and I'm glad we did it. Thank you very much. It's a wonderful memory.

夫婦2人で参加させて頂きました
私が泳げない為不安でしたが、ずっと浮き輪を引っ張ってくれて、こんな私でも沖まで出て海亀を見ることが出来ました。
戻ってきた時に、波酔いをしてしまい、気分が悪くなりました。
飲み物まで買ってきてくれて、とても優しく、
親切にして頂き、感謝しています。
とてもいい経験が出来て、良かったです
本当にありがとうございました。いい思い出です

We set off from the beach to go snorkeling in search of sea turtles, and it wasn't long before we found them. The turtles seemed accustomed to people and continued munching on seaweed without a care as we approached. Eventually, a small turtle came close, and we were able to meet four turtles in total. The guide was a picture-perfect young man, and the underwater photos turned out great. I would love to go again if I have the chance.

ビーチからシュノーケリングしながら、ウミガメを探しに出発し、ほどなく発見
カメさんたちは、人に慣れてるみたいで、近づいてもまるで気にせず海草をパクパクしてました。
そのうち小さいカメも近づいてきて、4匹のカメ達に会うことができました。
ガイドの方は絵に描いたような好青年で、海中での写真もバッチリです。
また機会があれば行きたい。

I was blessed with great weather and was able to encounter many sea turtles. I participated alone, so I was a bit anxious, but the mother and daughter I joined were very nice, and the handsome guide was very kind, explaining various things to us. He took us to places where we could see sea turtles, coral, and beautiful fish. I was so happy to swim with the sea turtles, and I was moved by the beautiful sea of Miyako Island and the sea turtles. They also sent me the photo data, which truly became a wonderful memory. If I ever go to Miyako Island again, I will definitely sign up for the tour. Thank you very much.

お天気にも恵まれ沢山のウミガメに出会う事が出来ました。
1人で参加したので少し不安でしたが
一緒に参加した　お母さんと娘さんも
いい方達だったし　ガイドのイケメンお兄さんが
とても優しくて　色々と説明もしてくれて
ウミガメやサンゴや綺麗なお魚達がいる場所に案内してくれました。
念願のウミガメと泳ぐ事が出来て幸せです。
宮古島の綺麗な海とウミガメに感動です。
写真データーも送信して下さり
本当に　いい思い出になりました。
宮古島に行く事があったら　絶対にツアーに申し込みます。
ありがとうございました。

I took my mother, who was experiencing snorkeling for the first time. Since we had a guide for a small group, we were able to enjoy it with peace of mind!

We were blessed with great weather and encountered so many sea turtles, it was amazing! We even received wonderful photo data, which was the best!

My mother, who was a bit scared of the ocean, seemed to have such a great time that by the end, she said she wanted to do it again. Thank you very much! ☺️

シュノーケリング初体験の母を連れて行きました。少人数でガイドしてもらえたので、安心して楽しめました！

天気にも恵まれて、こんなにいるのかってくらいたくさん海ガメに遭遇できて、素敵な写真データまでいただけて最高でした！

海怖いかもー、と言ってた母も、終わった時にはまたやりたいというくらい楽しかったようです。
ありがとうございました☺️

Thank you, Wataru!
You considered the crowds and the children's health, making it an exceptional tour.
The kids were thrilled to see the sea turtles up close and swim with them, making for an unforgettable day.
You also sent us many beautiful photos and fun videos, creating the best memories.
If the opportunity arises, I would definitely like to ask you again!
Thank you so much!

わたるさん、ありがとうございました！
混雑や子供たちの体調まで考えて下さり、至れり尽くせりのツアーでした。
子供たちも間近でウミガメを見て、一緒に泳げて、興奮冷めやらぬ一日になりました
綺麗な写真や楽しい動画も沢山送っていただいて、最高の思い出になりました
機会があれば、またわたるさんにぜひお願いしたいです！
本当にありがとうございました！

It was a bit rough, but I was able to see the sea turtles perfectly! The photos were dynamic and amazing. I would like to use this service again if I have the chance.

少し荒れ模様だったがウミガメがバッチリ見れた！写真も躍動感があり最高でした。また機会があれば利用したいです
