All Reviews for Okinawa Snorkeling

The staff provided detailed and careful explanations, allowing even beginners to enjoy snorkeling safely. I was able to enjoy a variety of colorful fish up close, swimming around the coral reefs. I used a waterproof case I bought at DAISO to take underwater photos with my smartphone. Unfortunately, due to the onset of the rainy season, the weather was bad, and the temperature was low, making it cold on the boat. I regret that I couldn't take beautiful photos since the sky wasn't clear.

スタッフが詳しく丁寧に説明してくれるので、初心者でも安全にシュノーケルが楽しめました。サンゴ礁に群がるたくさんの色とりどりの魚を間近で愉しむことができました。DAISOで買った防水ケースを使って、スマホで水中写真撮影もできました。残念ながら、梅雨入りの影響で、天気が悪く、気温も低く船上は寒かったです。青空ではないので、綺麗な写真が撮れなかったのが心残りです。

I experienced snorkeling for the first time in the Kerama Islands! Surrounded by the crystal-clear blue sea and colorful fish, it was truly a dreamlike time. The instructor was very kind, which made it easy to enjoy. My 7-year-old son, who initially said it was cold and scary, seemed to have a great time mixing in with the activities on the neighboring boat and diving from the ship. This is the best memory from our trip to Okinawa. I definitely want to go again!

慶良間諸島で初めてシュノーケリングを体験しました！透き通った青い海とカラフルな魚たちに囲まれて、本当に夢のような時間でした。インストラクターの方もとても親切で安心して楽しめました。最初は寒い、怖いと言っていた7才の息子も隣の船のアクティビティに混ぜてもらったり、船からダイブしたり、とても楽しめたようです。沖縄旅行の中で一番の思い出です。また絶対に行きたいと思います！

It was the perfect weather just before the rainy season! I participated with my daughter! The friendly staff provided great support, and my daughter enjoyed her first experience swimming in the ocean and snorkeling, creating wonderful memories! The changing room was bright and spacious, so it was fine for the two of us to use it together!

梅雨入りの前の最高のお天気日和でした！
娘をつれて参加しました！爽やかなスタッフがサポートしてくださって、安心して初めての海の泳ぎ、シュノーケルを娘も楽しめてよい思い出になりました！
更衣室も明るくて広かったので2人で入っても大丈夫でした！

I went on the morning course, and it was great. The sea was perfectly calm and shallow for as far as the eye could see. We moved to a nearby island with SAP, and you can feed the fish. You can take a lot of photos, but I hope the weather is nice. Also, there were fewer fish than expected.

朝のコースに行きましたが

天気が良いといいなと思いました
あとはお魚は少なめです

I participated alone, but we traveled by boat for about 10 minutes to get close to the cave. Thankfully, there was one instructor assigned to each group.

I was moved by the beautiful, clear sea and the mysterious blue world that spread inside the cave. They took high-quality photos for us, allowing us to capture many wonderful moments that will stay in our hearts.

Additionally, the facility was well-equipped with hot showers and lockers, making it very comfortable. I was worried about handling my car keys when going to the sea. However, there were locked lockers available, and the keys could be safely stored at the shop, so my concerns turned out to be unnecessary.

Above all, the instructor was very kind and made the day a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

ひとりで参加しましたが、ボートで約10分かけて洞窟の近くまで移動します。ありがたいことに1組にひとりのインストラクターが付き添ってくれます。

透明度の高い美しい海、洞窟内に広がる神秘的な青の世界に感動しました。高画質カメラで撮影してもらい、たくさんの心に残る素敵な瞬間を記録することができました。

また、店舗には温水シャワーやロッカーなど充実した施設が整っていて、とても快適でした。 海に行く際、車のキーの扱いについて不安に思っていました。しかし、鍵付きロッカーが設置されており、鍵はお店で安全に保管してもらえるため、訪れてみるとその心配は杞憂に終わりました。

何より、担当のインストラクターの方がとても親切で、一日を最高の思い出にしてくれました。本当にありがとうございました。

Compared to other tours, it was quite affordable, so I was a bit worried, but the guide was very kind and helpful. He also sent us photos for free via AirDrop, and took a lot of pictures for us. The sea in May was quite cold, and my wife ended up cramping, but the guide was very supportive.

他のツアーに比べると、かなり安かったので心配でしたが、ガイドのお兄さんもやさしく、すごく親切でした。
写真もエアドロップで無料で送ってくれますし、いっぱい写真もとってもらいました。
5月の海は結構水温が低く、ワイフは足がつってしまいましたが、ガイドのお兄さんがやさしくサポートしてくれました。

I had an amazing time. It was the best trip.
The guides were especially kind and helpful, which made me feel very at ease.
We are foreigners and not very good at Japanese, so I initially felt anxious, but the guides were gentle and provided solid guidance. Thank you very much.
I look forward to next time as well.

めっちゃ楽しかった。最高な旅でした。
特にガイドさんたちは優しくて親切で対応してくれて、とても安心されました。
私たちは外国人だけど、日本語があまり上手じゃない為、最初に不安な気持ちが持っていたがガイドさんたちは優しくてしっかり指導してくれて、ありがとうございました。
また、次回もよろしくお願いします。

The staff were all knowledgeable and provided thorough explanations, which made us feel at ease as first-time snorkelers, and it was really great! The female staff member's explanations were easy to understand! I was super excited when the male staff member dove down and brought up a sea cucumber! I tried to dive too, but I couldn't do it at all because of the water pressure, and I was really impressed! The marble was fast and so much fun! The driver noticed a sea turtle along the way and stopped, which made me really happy since it was my first sea turtle sighting. I was also touched that he was paying attention to such things while driving; I wanted to ride more! Thank you for taking so many pictures!!! It became the best memory!♡ This time, the weather wasn't clear, which was a bit disappointing (but the sea was beautiful, and I realized how gorgeous the waters of Okinawa are), so I would like to ask this shop again when I plan a comeback! Thank you!

スタッフの方が皆さん知識があり事前の説明も丁寧で、シュノーケリング初の私たちとしては安心できとても良かったです！
女性のスタッフの方の説明わかりやすかった！
男性スタッフの方が素潜りでナマコを取ってきてくださったのがめちゃテンション上がりました（笑）簡単に潜っていったから自分も潜ってみようとしたのですが水圧でまっっったくできなくて、すご！！！！って感動してました(ﾟ∀ﾟ)
マーブル速くてめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです(^^)運転手の方が途中でウミガメに気付いてくださって止まってくれて初ウミガメだったので嬉しかったし、運転しながらそんなところまで見てくれてるところに感動しました、もっと乗りたかった（笑）写真もたくさん撮ってくださりありがとうございました！！！最高の思い出になりました♡
今回は天気が晴天ではなく少し残念だったので（それでも海は綺麗で沖縄の海の綺麗さを実感しましたが）またリベンジする際はこちらのお店にお願いしたいです！ありがとうございました！

I had to change my reservation date before going, which was quite a hassle, but they responded graciously. On the day of the diving, I knew I couldn't board the plane, but I wasn't aware of the time constraints. I was very anxious since it had been 25 years since my last dive, but I was able to complete two dives as planned and had a great time. The three-dimensionality and scale of the coral reef are something you can't experience with snorkeling, so I'm glad I did it.

行く前に予約日をずらしてもらったり、随分面倒かけましたが、快く対応してくれました。
ダイビング当日、飛行機に搭乗できないのは知っていましたが、時間の制約まであるとは知りませんでした。
25年ぶりのダイビングでとても不安でしたが、予定通り2ダイブし、楽しく終了できました。
珊瑚礁の立体感やスケールの大きさは、シュノーケルでは味わえないので、やってよかったです。

I am filled with heartfelt gratitude for the opportunity to have my first experience in life.

Seeing fish that I've only seen in an aquarium in real life was amazing! This experience, at over 50 years old, has become a treasure for me.

Thank you to the captain and all the guides for your care.

人生初体験をさせていただき心からありがとうございますって想いでいっぱいです♡

水族館でしか見たことない魚を生で𐤔𐤔𐤔見れたこと
50過ぎての経験は宝物になりました。

船長さんを始め、ガイドの皆様方お世話になりました。

The staff were kind and taught me how to swim since it was my first time snorkeling. I didn't experience any seasickness and was able to see sea turtles. Even as a couple in our 60s, we were able to enjoy ourselves, and I'm really glad we participated in the tour. Thank you for your help.

スタッフの方々は優しくてシュノーケルが初めての私に泳ぎ方を教えてくれました。心配してた船酔いも無く海亀も見れました。60代夫婦でも楽しむことが出来てツアーに参加して本当に良かったです。お世話になりました。

I didn't rent a car, so it was great that they provided transportation to near the hotel where I was staying, and the facilities at the store and on the boat were very well-equipped. Although it was unfortunately cloudy, the water temperature was just right, and the sea was clear, allowing us to encounter turtles, which was truly moving! The staff who accompanied us were also very kind, and their consideration was wonderful. I will definitely rely on you again when I visit Okinawa.

レンタカーを借りなかったので、泊まっているホテル近くまで送迎してくれるのと、店舗や船の中の設備がとても充実していたのがすごく良かった。
あいにくの曇りだったが、水温はちょうど良く海も透き通って亀に出会えたのは感動！
同行してくれたスタッフの方々もとても親切で、気遣いも素晴らしかった。
また沖縄に行くときは、お世話になります。

I think it was amazing that I could touch not only many fish but also turtles. The transportation service was available, and I recommend it for sightseeing in Okinawa.

たくさんの魚のほか、亀にも触れることができ最高だったと思いますm(_ _)m　送迎もあり、沖縄観光にはお勧めでします。

April 22
From cloudy ☁️ to sunny
It was beautiful 🐠~ 🩷🥹
My first snorkeling 🤿 experience
I participated alone 🛟, and the staff were very cheerful and it was fun. I want to do it again when I go to Okinawa 🏝️.

４月２２日
曇り☁️から晴れに
きれい🐠だった〜🩷🥹
はじめてのシュノーケル🤿体験
1人で参加しました🛟スタッフさんはとっても明るくて楽しかったです　また沖縄行ったらやりたいです🏝️

During our first experience, my 3-year-old daughter really enjoyed it, and this time it was an encore experience at her request. She looked like she was having a great time riding on an Anpanman float and watching the fish. When the instructor suggested, "Do you want to get off the Anpanman float?" she nodded with a smile and finally got off the float. She happily let the instructor hold her and enjoyed watching the fish without any fear.

This was also the first time in Okinawa for her older sister, who initially didn't want to go, but in the end, she was smiling and said, "I don't want to get out of the sea." It seems everyone had a wonderful time. Thank you very much!

初めての体験の時3歳の娘がとても気に入り今回娘の希望でアンコール体験となりました⭐︎
アンパンマンの浮き輪に乗ってとても楽しそうにお魚を見ていましたがインストラクターのお兄さんの、「アンパンマンおりてみる？」との提案に、笑顔で頷いて、ついに脱浮き輪♪
怖がることもなく嬉しそうにお兄さんに抱っこしてもらいお魚鑑賞を楽しんでいました。
今回沖縄が初めてだった年齢の大きい方のお姉ちゃんも最初は行きたくないとゴネていましたが最後は「海からあがりたくない」と笑顔になっていました。
みんなとても楽しかったようです(^-^)
ありがとうございました♪

I participated because I wanted my daughter, who is not fond of water, to experience the beauty of the ocean. At first, she wasn't used to snorkeling, but it seems she gradually got the hang of it, and from a certain point, she let go of my hand, and we both became engrossed in exploring the underwater world. My goal was to see a sea turtle, but unfortunately, we were too late and missed it. However, we were truly moved by the whales and the many beautiful fish, as well as the incredibly stunning ocean. Next time, I want to go diving together!

水が苦手な娘に海の中の美しさを体験して欲しくて参加しました。最初はシュノーケルに慣れなかったけどだんだん慣れたらしく途中から私の手をはなしてお互い夢中で海の中みてました。私の目的はウミガメ様に会うことだったけど私たち2人は遅くて見れませんでした泣
ですがクジラ様とたくさんのお魚さんたち、めちゃくちゃ綺麗な海にやはり感動しました。次はダイビング一緒にしたいです！

It was a great experiance. Tanks to the Team of Veltra.

My 6-year-old daughter went snorkeling for the first time!
At first, she was scared, but the staff were all very kind, and she had a great time!
She was able to touch creatures she usually doesn't encounter, like starfish and large sea cucumbers, and meeting a sea turtle was truly moving!
They took many photos, and we have so many wonderful memories, which makes us very happy!
For lunch, my daughter is quite picky, but there were several options, which was very helpful!

Thank you very much!

6歳の娘が初めてのシュノーケリングでした！
最初は怖がってたもののスタッフさんが皆さん優しくして頂きとても楽しんでいました！
ヒトデや大きなナマコなど普段接することの無い生き物に触れられたり、ウミガメに出会えて感動です！
お写真もたくさんとっていただき思い出がたくさんあってとてもうれしいです！
お昼のお弁当も好き嫌いの多い娘ですが、何種類かありとても助かりました！

ありがとうございました！

The staff were all very kind and helpful. Although most of the guests were foreigners, it was a friendly and enjoyable day.

スタッフさんが皆様親切で助かりました。
外国人がほとんどでしたが和気あいあいで楽しい一日となりました。

The kayaking and snorkeling at the Blue Cave were both amazing.

We had a private beach all to ourselves for the kayaking. Along the way, a drone flew by to take photos and videos.

I was able to leave my phone behind and relax, forgetting about time.

The snorkeling at the Blue Cave was the most wonderful experience I've had among all the snorkeling and diving I've done!

We swam to the cave, and the journey there was also great. The hospitality and guidance from our instructor, Kinjo, were 200% enjoyable.

The kids were able to spend time safely and securely.

I was surprised by the quality and quantity of the images and videos after the experience. I was happily shocked by how many there were!

Even after it was over, I could look back at the images and reminisce.

I would definitely love to do this again when I visit Okinawa.

カヤックも青の洞窟シュノーケリングも最高でした。

カヤックは人がいないプライベートビーチをなんと貸切で。
途中ドローンが飛んできて写真や画像を撮影してくれます。

ケータイも置いて時間を忘れてのんびり満喫できました。


青の洞窟シュノーケルは、今まで行ったシュノーケルやダイビングの中でもナンバーワンに素敵でした！

洞窟まで泳いでいくのですが、その道中もまた良くて。
インストラクターのキンジョウさんのホスピタリティ200%のトークや案内で楽しくドームイン。

子供も安心＆安全に過ごすことができました。

驚いたのか体験後の画像や動画の質と量です。
こんなに⁉︎と嬉しいビックリ。

終わった後も、画像を見返して思い出に浸れます。

沖縄に行く際にはまたぜひお願いしたいです。

It has been many years since I first visited the Blue Cave, and I never thought I would be able to bring my family along. It was still beautifully blue and clear! This time, I also paddled a kayak and had the experience of feeling the waves. It was my first time doing this, and while there were challenges, I felt a sense of accomplishment. If I have the energy next time, I would like to challenge myself again.

10何年が前に青の洞窟と初めて行ってから時が経ち、家族も連れて来れるとは思っていなかったですが、変わらず青く透き通っていて綺麗かったです！
今回はカヤックも漕いで、波を感じながらの体験をさせていただきました。
初めてのことをあり、苦労はありましたが、達成感はありました。
次回も体力があれば挑戦したいと思います。

We participated as a family of three. It was our first time snorkeling, and since we were going to a cave, I had some anxiety right up until the moment we started, even though I had read about the experience. I trusted the instructor's words that it would be totally fine even if I couldn't swim or was new to snorkeling, and off we went into the sea.

The clarity of the water, the mystical colors of the cave, and the guidance from the instructor made it truly the best experience ever. I had so much fun that I can't even remember what I was worried about. We took a lot of photos and videos, which became great memories. I regret not participating sooner. It was so amazing that I even signed up for the hotel’s snorkeling tour the next day (although it ended up being canceled due to the waves). I definitely want to participate again!

家族3人で参加させていただきました。
初めてのシュノーケル、しかも洞窟まで行くということで、体験談は読んでいたものの寸前まで不安がありました。
泳ぎが出来なくても、シュノーケルが初めてでもぜんぜん大丈夫てです！というインストラクターの方の言葉を信じ、いざ海へ。
海の透明度、洞窟の神秘的な色、インストラクターの方の誘導、ホントにホントに最高の体験でした。何が不安だったのか思い出せないくらい、楽しくて夢中になりました。
写真、ビデオも沢山撮っていただいて、それも良い記念になりました。
なぜ今まで参加しなかったのか後悔です。
あまりの素晴らしさに、翌日ホテルのシュノーケルツアーに申し込んだくらいです。
（翌日は波の関係で中止になってしまいましたが）
また絶対参加したいです

The staff were very attentive and taught us well, so we were able to enjoy the experience with peace of mind! The activities included diving, snorkeling, and whale watching, making it a fantastic value for the price!

スタッフの方々が丁寧に教えて下さったので安心して楽しく体験することができました！
ダイビングにシュノーケル、ホエールウォッチングと盛りだくさんでコスパ抜群でした！

After paddling 1.5 km by sea kayak, we finally reached the entrance of the Blue Cave. We prepared for snorkeling on the rocky shore and then headed into the Blue Cave! The beautiful blue glow inside the cave is a sight you must see for yourself. After that, we enjoyed snorkeling among the coral reefs, greeting the colorful fish while playing with jellyfish. After snorkeling, we paddled back 1.5 km to the shop. The guide was very attentive and taught us many things, making it a truly enjoyable experience! It was a very satisfying tour! Thank you very much for your hospitality. Thank you!

シーカヤックで片道1.5kmをえっちらおっちらひたすら漕いで、青の洞窟の入り口まで。。。
岩場でシュノーケリングの準備をして、いざ青の洞窟へ！！！
美しい青色に輝く洞窟の中はぜひご自分の目でご覧いただきたい景色・風景です。
その後、珊瑚礁を海月と戯れながらシュノーケリングで美しい色のお魚さんたちにご挨拶♪
シュノーケリングの後は再びシーカヤックを1.5km漕いでショップまで。。。
ガイドさんがつきっきりで色々なことを教えてくださいますし、楽しいの一言です！
大満足のツアーでした！！
大変お世話になりました。
ありがとうございました♪

It was a wonderful plan where an instructor was assigned to our group, allowing even those who are not good at swimming to enjoy it with peace of mind! The moments when fish swam right by us or when we fed them made me feel just like Ariel!! I would love to participate again if I have the chance!

グループに1人インストラクターの方がついてくださり、泳ぐのが苦手な子でも安心して楽しめる素敵なプランでした！魚がすぐ近くを横切ったり、餌をあげたりする瞬間はまるでアリエルになったような気分になれました！！機会があればまた参加したいと思います！

On February 25th, I experienced kayaking and snorkeling with the guidance of staff member Yō-chan. Due to the wave conditions, we couldn't go to the planned Blue Cave, but it was still a thoroughly satisfying experience.

The purpose of this trip was to create enjoyable memories for my son, who is in sixth grade and has always been afraid of flying, as it was his first flight. We planned a schedule focused on activities, and this experience was one of them. Since it was his first time entering the ocean, he was amazed by the beauty of Okinawa's sea, and he particularly enjoyed snorkeling. His best memory is snorkeling, to the point where he said he would be okay with flying if he could snorkel!

Additionally, Yō-chan, who was in charge, was very pleasant and tailored the guidance to suit our family, especially considering my health condition.

From start to finish, it was truly enjoyable, and the time flew by. Thank you once again 😊 I would love to visit again.

2月25日スタッフようちゃんの案内で、カヤック＋シュノーケリングを体験しました。
波の状況で、予定していた青の洞窟には行けませんでしたが、充分満足できる体験でした。
今回の旅の目的は、飛行機が苦手で、ずっと避けてきた小6の息子の、初フライトを、楽しい思い出にしたくて、アクティビティメインの日程を組んでおり、その一つがこちらでの体験でした。
海に入ること自体が初めてだったので、まずは、沖縄の海の綺麗さに感動し、特にシュノーケリングは、本当に楽しかったようです。
彼の1番の思い出は、シュノーケリングだそうです。シュノーケリングできるなら、飛行機乗ってもいいと言うくらい！
また、担当してくださった、ようちゃんが、とても感じが良く、私たち家族（特に私の体調）に合わせてガイドしてくださいました。

最初から最後まで、本当に楽しく、あっという間の時間でした。
改めて、ありがとうございました😊
また是非伺いたいです。

I participated in late February. Unfortunately, due to bad weather, the northern side with the Blue Cave had high waves and was deemed dangerous, so the location was moved to the southern coast of the main island. It was my first time snorkeling, but the instructor provided thorough guidance, which made me feel safe and allowed me to enjoy the experience. Despite the bad weather, I was impressed by the beauty of the Okinawan sea. I was also lucky to be able to take a photo with a sea turtle.

２月下旬に参加してきました。
生憎の悪天候で、青の洞窟のある北側は波が高く危険ということで本島南側の海岸に場所を移して実施。
初めてのシュノーケリングでしたが、インストラクターの方が丁寧に指導して下さったので安心して楽しむことが出来ました。
悪天候にも関わらず、沖縄の海の綺麗さには感動しました。運良くウミガメと写真を撮る事が出来たのもラッキーでした。

This time, I challenged myself to diving for the first time in 35 years as a celebration of my 60th birthday. The weather wasn't great, and the boat was rocking, which made me quite anxious, but thanks to the staff's quick guidance and instructions, I was able to dive safely. Amid the excitement and nervousness, I truly enjoyed swimming in the beautiful ocean after such a long time. I had a wonderful experience touching the clownfish playing among the sea anemones. Thank you very much.

今回還暦の記念に35年ぶりのダイビングを挑戦しました。天候もあまり良くなく、船も揺れて、いろんな不安もありましたが、スタッフの方々のテキパキとした誘導や指示より安全に行うことができました。ドキドキワクワクの中、ほんとに久しぶりに海の中の素敵な遊泳を楽しむことができました。
イソギンチャクの中で遊んでいるクマノミに触れたりと素敵な経験ができました。ありがとうございました。

Unfortunately, the Blue Cave was closed due to the weather. It was also cold with low temperatures. If possible, since it was due to the weather, I would have liked the option to cancel if we couldn't go to the Blue Cave.

あいにくの天気で、青の洞窟は封鎖されていました。気温も低く寒かったです。
できれば、天候によるものなのでしょぅないですが青の洞窟に行けない場合は、キャンセル可能にしてほしかった。

The waves were a bit high while kayaking. At first, I felt uneasy due to the rocking, but as I continued, it became enjoyable. After returning to the beach and taking a break, unfortunately, we couldn't go to the Blue Cave, but we had a snorkeling experience in the sea in front of the store. I was able to see many different kinds of fish, which was really exciting and fun.

The staff member, Izumi, explained various things and took a lot of photos for us. She was very nice, and we had a great experience. I would love to request her again when I visit Okinawa.

少し波の高さがありカヤックを漕いでる時、
始めは揺れて不安だったが進んでるうちに楽しくなってきた。浜に戻り休憩後、残念ながら青の洞窟へは行けなかったけど店舗前の海でシュノーケル体験。たくさんの種類の魚を見れてテンション⤴︎⤴︎楽しかったです。
スタッフの泉(せん)ちゃんが、色々説明をしてくれたり写真をたくさん撮ってくれたり、
とても良い人で楽しく体験できました。
また沖縄に訪れた時はお願いしたいです。
