All Reviews for Okinawa Water Sports

This plan includes transportation, boat transfers, and rental of wear, equipment, and tanks all in one.

At the Miejyo Port waiting room, there are coin lockers available, but the number is limited. After arriving, you will check in (fill out a checklist and confirm your license) and immediately put on your wetsuit.

Participants will experience various plans together, with around 40 people, including many foreign tourists (from Europe, America, and East Asia). After about an hour, we arrived at the Kerama Islands, and diving began right away.

Since it had been a while since my last dive, I was nervous and struggled to breathe properly, but thanks to the staff's precise instructions (getting used to breathing with my face in the water and switching to an introductory diving course), I was eventually able to calm down. When I accidentally floated to the surface due to a mistake in handling my equipment, they clearly communicated that "that operation is not allowed" (I appreciate their focus on safety, and they were friendly during breaks).

On the second dive, I was able to dive calmly and enjoy the sensation of floating in the light blue waters under slightly cloudy weather, swimming alongside subtropical corals, fish, and sea turtles. I never tire of watching the fish and turtles. I would love to participate on a sunny day as well.

During the activity, there were several staff members monitoring safety on the surface and at least one on the second deck of the boat. They ensured safety checks regarding the number of people before and after boat transfers, and the supervision and guidance from the younger staff contributed to a high level of safety awareness, making me feel that this diving shop is very reliable.

The overall flow involved a second dive at a different location after the first, followed by a lunch break (the staff mentioned they usually serve curry), and then a third activity at another location. Most participants opted for the three-dive course.

I originally signed up for the two-dive course, so while others were doing their third dive, I took the opportunity to use the warm shower (just to rinse off) and change clothes and tidy up.

After returning to Miejyo Port in Naha, there was no logbook to fill out, and we simply disbanded. Additionally, there are several hotels nearby where you can enjoy day-use baths.

送迎・船の移動・ウェア&器材&タンクレンタル全て込みのプランです。

三重城港待合室にはコインロッカーありますが、数は少ないです。到着後、受付（チェックシート記入、ライセンス確認）後、その場ですぐウェットスーツを着用します。

参加者は様々な体験プラン一緒に、外国人観光客（欧米&東アジア系）多めで約40名ほど。1時間弱で慶良間諸島に到着後、すぐにダイビングが始まりました。

私は久々のダイビングのため、緊張で呼吸が上手くできなくなりましたが、スタッフさんの的確な指示（水に顔をつけて呼吸に慣れる、体験ダイビングコースへの変更）で、やがて落ち着くことができました。私の機材操作ミスで身体が海面まで浮き上がった時は、「その操作はしてはダメ」な旨、明確に伝えられました（安全重視の姿勢に感謝します、休憩中はフレンドリーな対応でした）。

2回目は落ち着いてファンダイビングでき、薄曇りの天気の中、淡い青色の海中で浮遊感を楽しみつつ、亜熱帯の珊瑚やお魚、そしてウミガメと一緒に泳ぎました。魚やウミガメの様子は見飽きません。晴天の日にもぜひ参加したいです。

アクティビティ中は、海面に数名&船上2階に少なくとも1名のスタッフさんが安全監視していました。船の移動前後の人数&安全確認、若手スタッフさんの監督指導など、アクティビティ以外の部分も含め、安全意識が高く、非常に信頼できるダイビングショップだと感じました。

全体の流れは1回目の後、場所を変えて2回目、昼食休憩（スタッフさん曰く、いつもカレー）を経て、場所を変えて3回目のアクティビティとなります。ほとんどの方が3回コースでした。

私は元々2回コースだったので、他の方が3回目をしていて空いているうちに、温水シャワー（体の表面を流す程度）や着替え、片付けをしました。

那覇の三重城港に戻り、ログ付けはなく、そのまま解散になります。なお、三重城近隣には、日帰り入浴可能なホテルが複数あります。

After the typhoon passed, it rained, but it wasn't cold. The staff were friendly and we were able to chat a lot, which was really fun. Next time, please schedule it for sunset time.

台風の通り過ぎた後で、雨が降りましたが、寒くなかったです。スタッフの方も気さくでたくさんお話しができて、すごく楽しかったです。次回はサンセットタイムにお願いします。

Due to the impact of the typhoon, diving was canceled the day before, but I received a message saying that snorkeling in the shallow waters was still an option. Since it was a great opportunity, I decided to participate in snorkeling. In the end, the weather held up, and I was taken to the Blue Cave with my snorkel gear! It was truly beautiful and moving! On the contrary, it was lucky that the cave wasn't crowded. The staff member provided a lot of explanations and was very attentive, which made me very satisfied. Thank you so much!!!

台風の影響で、前日にダイビングは中止になってしまいましたが浅瀬でシュノーケリングならとご連絡をいただいていました。
せっかくだしシュノーケリングで参加することにしました。
結果的に天気も崩れず、シュノーケルで青の洞窟まで連れて行っていただきました！！
本当にキレイで感動しました！！
逆に洞窟内が混んでいなくてラッキーでした。
お姉さんもたくさん説明してくれたり
丁寧に対応してくださり大満足でした。
ありがとうございました！！！

We participated with three people, including a child✨. We were able to swim with turtles, and most importantly, the child was very happy❤️. The instructor, Kouki, was very polite and kind, which was fantastic👏👏. Thank you, Takahashi-san, for teaching us various things✨✨😊. I will definitely make a reservation with Veltra again next year😇.

子供と３人での参加でした✨
亀とも泳げ、何より子供が喜んでました❤️
インストラクターのこうき君もとっても丁寧で優しく最高でした👏👏
高橋さんにも色々教えて頂きありがとう御座いました✨✨😊
又是非来年もベルトラさんで予約します😇

This time, our guide was a veteran diver. They knew all the points thoroughly and provided me with precise advice, even though I still have little experience. I learned about the appropriate weight and received tips as well. It was great that the diving experience was not just about diving but also connected to future opportunities.

今回のガイドさんはベテランダイバーさん。
どんなポイントがあるかも知り尽くしていますし、まだまだ経験が少ない私にも的確なアドバイスをしていただき、適正ウエイトも知れたし、コツも教えていただきました。
ただ潜るだけでなく、次に繋がるダイビングになってよかったです。

First time snorkeling in my 50s 🤿
The blue sky and crystal-clear sea of Kerama were absolutely stunning. I dove at three different spots and even got to swim with sea turtles, which was amazing.

Thank you so much to Captain and Goto-san, who took care of our team.

I was able to enjoy the ocean with peace of mind, and it turned out to be a wonderful trip.
I would definitely like to request your services again when I visit Okinawa next time.

50代で人生初めてのシュノーケル🤿
慶良間の青い空と透明度の高い海、素晴らしい景色、3ヶ所のポイントで潜りましたが、ウミガメとも泳げて最高でした。

船長さんをはじめ、私たちのチームを担当してくださった後藤さん、本当にありがとうございました。

安心して海を楽しむことができ、とてもいい旅になりました。
また沖縄に行く時は、ぜひお願いしたいです。

The staff's talk about coral was very educational! Additionally, I appreciated the discussion about the ecology of the crown-of-thorns starfish that I requested, as well as the recommendations for books. I am truly grateful! During the experience, I was able to touch the coral, and since it was my first time, I made many unexpected discoveries!!!

お店の方のサンゴに関するお話がとても勉強になりました！また、リクエストしたオニヒトデの生態についての話もしていただき、おすすめの書籍なども紹介していただいて、本当にありがたかったです！体験では、実際にサンゴを触らせていただいたのですが、初めての体験だったので意外な発見が本当にたくさんありました！！！

I was truly surprised by how attentive the staff were. My 10-year-old daughter kept saying it was the best part of our trip to Okinawa because everyone was so kind to her. A friend is coming to Okinawa in July, so I plan to introduce them. Thank you so much!

本当に気配りの出来るスタッフばっかりで驚きました。10歳の娘は、みんなから可愛がってもらって沖縄旅で一番良かったと何度も言うてます。7月に連れが沖縄に来るので紹介しようと思います。本当にありがとうございました！

月曜の1便だったため他の参加者がおらず、私たちだけの貸切状態でした！
2歳から参加可能とのことで選んだツアーでしたが、ガイドさんがいつも子供のことを気にしてくださり、とても助かりました。
途中少しぐずり出したこともあり、最後のポイントまでは行かない判断をしてくださったり、子供に生き物を近くで見せてくれたり、たくさんご配慮いただいたおかげで楽しくツアーを終えられました。
最後は子供も「楽しかった！」と言っていて、参加して良かったと思いました！

またガイドさんはランチのおすすめなども教えてくださり、そちらに行ってみたらとっても美味しくて最高でした！
良い思い出をありがとうございました！

I participated in a tour to see sea turtles, and I was moved to be able to see them! Just when I was about to give up and head back, thinking I might not see any, a sea turtle appeared! Thanks to the instructor who didn't give up! It was a lot of fun!

ウミガメを見れるか見れないかのツアーに参加しましたが、無事に見ることができて感動しました！今回は見れないかもと諦めて帰ろうとした時にウミガメが現れました！インストラクターのお兄さんが諦めなかったおかげです！楽しかったです！

The instructor was very kind and helped me many times, so even as a beginner, I was able to enjoy surfing! Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

インストラクターの方が優しく何度も助けてくれたので、初心者でも楽しくサーフィンが出来ました！とっても良い経験をありがとうございましたー！

The snorkeling and diving were fantastic. The workers are really kind and always smiling. When I was diving, they kept checking if I was fine or if I had any injuries. They are very responsible, teaching us safety rules and also hand signals that we could use. There are three points that we go to (the different parts of the sea), and we divided into groups. At the first point, one group did snorkeling while some groups did diving; it was really nice. The boat was medium-sized, but the inside was very clean. The water in the ocean is clear, so it was really cool—we saw five turtles! They also take videos and pictures and send them to us.

However, one thing that was a little uncomfortable was that there are only two restrooms and two shower rooms. But I think if you go quickly, it would be okay. I also did an additional dive; if you pay 7,000 yen, you can do an extra dive. If you don't want to do another one, you can go snorkeling. If you get seasick, they have bags for throwing up. The workers are really nice and kind. They speak a variety of languages, including Chinese, English, and Japanese. It was the best experience I had in Okinawa. I would go here again if I come to Okinawa again!

The snowkeling and diving was so fantastic.😍 The workers are really king and allways smiling.When I did diving they kept cheacking uf I am fine or if I have somewhere that I am hurt. They are really responcible teaching us safty ruies and also signs that we cohld do with hands. there are 3points that we go (the different sea parts that we go)we divied into groups and in the first point othrr group does snowkeling and some groups do diving it was really nice. the boat was like a middle size but inside was really clean the inside if the ocean is clear so it was really cool we saw 5turtles!! They also take vidors and pictures and send it to us. But something that was little bit uncomftoble was that there is only 2 resrooms and 2 shower rooms. But I think uf you go quickly then it would be okay. Also I did and additional diving if you pay 7,000yen you could do and extra diving. if yiu dont want to do another one then you could di snowkeling. If you have boat sick they dive bags to thowup. They are really nice and kind.The workers do chinese,english,japanese like varity of languges it was the brst expreencie that I had in Okinawa😆.I would go here again if I come to Okinawa again.😀!

To be honest, I was considering canceling because the weather looked bad. I had been praying to the teru teru bozu for good weather since before the trip.

Surprisingly, the morning of the event was sunny, perfect for a beach day. However, in the afternoon, it rained and there was thunder during snorkeling.

But the guide took a lot of photos, and I am very satisfied with how they turned out.

I would love to go again if I have the chance. Thank you for everything. Thank you very much! 😊

正直お天気が悪そうで、キャンセルしようかと考えていました。出発前からてるてる坊主に晴れますようにとお願いしていました。
なんと当日の午前は晴れた海水浴で万歳。
午後のシュノーケリングは雨と雷が。
しかし、引率のお兄さんがたくさん写真も撮ってくれて。その仕上がりに大満足です。

また機会があったら行きたいですね。
お世話になりました。
ありがとうございました😊

My wife and I participated in a sea turtle exploration snorkeling tour. The weather was rainy, but the water was very clear and beautiful. We were able to encounter sea turtles, which made for a very precious experience and memory. We are grateful to the kind staff.
☆ The female staff were beautiful!!

妻と2人で海亀探索シュノーケルに参加させて頂きました。天候が大雨でしたが、海の中はとても透き通った綺麗な海でした。海亀にも出会うことが出来て、とても貴重な時間と思い出になり親切なスタッフ一同に感謝しています。
☆女性スタッフが美人でした‼️

Kayaking while observing mangroves and wildlife from the water was the best activity that allowed me to feel a sense of the extraordinary and immerse myself in nature! The guide was kind and taught us how to paddle the kayak, and also shared various information about Okinawa's vegetation, making it enjoyable to learn about Okinawa's nature while kayaking!

カヤックを漕ぎながら、水上からマングローブや生物を見ることができ、非日常かつ自然をたっぷり感じれる最高のアクティビティでした！ガイドの方が優しくカヤックの漕ぎ方を教えてくれますし、沖縄の植生物についてもいろいろ教えてくれるので楽しくカヤックを漕ぎながら沖縄の自然を知ることができますよ！

Thank you for allowing me to experience diving in the best spots despite the bad weather during the rainy season. Since it had been a while since my last dive, I appreciated the updates on equipment usage and knowledge. The instructor, who was both strong and graceful while swimming, was ideal, taking care of my nervousness on the day. It was reassuring to have a pickup service to the hotel, and I was delighted when the captain took us on a leisurely tour of recommended spots visible from the sea on the way back. The views were breathtaking, and I wish I had brought my smartphone on board (though it's important to take responsibility for the risk of getting it wet or losing it).

梅雨の悪天候の中、最高の場所を見極めてのダイビングを体験させていただき、ありがとうございました。
久しぶりにダイビングを体験する私に対して、機材の使い方や、知識をアップデートさせていただきました。
当日慌てる私の面倒を見ながら、時にしっかり強く、優雅に泳げるインストラクターさんが理想の泳ぎ方でした。
ホテルまでピックアップあり安心、船の帰りしなに船長さんが、海上から見えるオススメスポットを船でゆっくり回ってくださったのも嬉しい出来事でした。絶景で、スマホを船内に持っていけばよかったです。(濡れる可能性や失くす可能性は自己責任、しっかり対策を)

I'm not very good at swimming, but I felt safe and enjoyed myself because the guide closely monitored our group, and wearing a wetsuit helped me float well. We went snorkeling at three different locations, and I could choose from three types of lunch boxes. They also provided towels, making it really easy to have fun. They took a lot of photos, which became great memories. I highly recommend this tour.

泳ぐのが得意じゃないのですが、グループでガイドの方が良く監視してくれるのと、ウエットスーツ着用で身体が良く浮くの安心して楽しめました。3つの場所でシュノーケリングをして、お弁当も3種類から選べるし、タオルも貸してくださったので、本当に気軽に楽しめました。写真も沢山撮ってくれて、良い思い出になりました。このツアーはおすすめです。

The tour was filled with anxiety from start to finish. After being picked up at the hotel, we signed in at the office counter. We were instructed to wait nearby, but no one provided any guidance. Around us, foreign guests were happily choosing wetsuits with the staff, while we felt completely left out. A staff member happened to notice us and helped us select and change into our wetsuits. However, there was still no explanation about what to expect next, how long we would wait, or what we should do. Even when we wanted to ask questions, the staff seemed to be absent, making it difficult to get information. Suddenly, we were told by another staff member to get on the bus outside, so we just went along with it. Surrounded by foreign guests, we felt quite anxious.

Once on board, they did provide a brief explanation of how to snorkel. However, when it came time to enter the water, there was no instruction on how to get in or how to breathe; we were just expected to jump in. I had to figure out how to breathe through my mouth on my own. They took a couple of photos when we first entered the water, but after that, they focused solely on taking pictures of the fish, and we didn’t get many photos of ourselves. The underwater scenery was truly beautiful, and we even encountered a sea turtle. I think it’s worth trying at least once.

The environment was quite challenging for snorkeling beginners, and it seems better suited for those who are experienced or who don’t mind the staff's casual attitude. I wouldn’t recommend this tour for those looking for a more attentive and guided experience.

ずっと不安なまま進むツアーだった。
ホテルでピックアップしていただいた後、事務所のカウンターでサインをして受付。近くで待つよう指示されたが、誰も何も案内してくれない。周りでは外国の方々が外国のスタッフさんと和気藹々とウェットスーツを選んでおり、完全に置いて行かれている感。偶々通りかかったスタッフさんが私達の存在に気づき、何とかウェットスーツ選びと着替えを行った。その後も何も説明がなく、どこでどれくらい待つのか次に何をすれば良いのか何もわからない。聞きたくてもスタッフさんが何故かその辺に留まっておらず、聞けない。するとまた突然スタッフさんに外にあるバスに乗るよう言われ、とりあえず乗る。周りは外国の方だらけでとにかく不安。
乗船後は一応シュノーケリングのやり方は一通り説明してくれる。しかし実際に海に入る時には、入水方法や呼吸の仕方等何もレクチャーしてくれず、とりあえず海に入ってみる方式。何とか口呼吸の方法を自力でやってコツを掴むしかなった。写真は入水した時にとりあえず1、2枚程度撮ってくれたが、その後はずっと魚を撮っているだけで、私達の写真は特に撮ってはくれなかった。海の中は本当に綺麗で、ウミガメにも会えた。一度やってみる価値はあると思う。
終始シュノーケリング初心者には厳しい環境で、経験者、スタッフさんの陽気さや適当さが気にならない人向きだと思う。
丁寧に案内してくれるツアーを求めている人には、おすすめできない。

It was my first time kayaking and snorkeling, but the guide was very thorough in teaching us, and it turned out to be a very fulfilling experience. If I have the chance to go to Okinawa again, I would love to experience it once more!

初カヤック、シュノーケリングでしたがガイドさんが丁寧に教えてくださり、とても充実した時間になりました。
また、沖縄に行く機会があれば体験したいです！

There was fog, but the sea was clear and not murky 🥰 The instructors were kind and taught us gently, so I felt at ease 👍 I will definitely ask for your services again when I go to Okinawa 🤲

霧がありましたが海は濁ってなくて綺麗でした🥰インストラクターの方達が親切で優しく教えてくれるので安心でした👍また沖縄に行く時はお願いします🤲

In the water, the staff member asked us to wait a moment and showed us a pufferfish, saying it was not a good swimmer. We were completely captivated by its incredibly adorable appearance. Including that lucky encounter, there were many colorful fish, making it a wonderful memory. I was moved to see the Blue Cave with my own eyes, which I had only seen in pictures.

From the explanation of the equipment to being underwater and until the end, everything was explained thoroughly and enjoyably, so I had no worries at all. They took care of all the tedious preparations and clean-up, making it a luxurious experience that was easy to enjoy. Even when I was about to be swept away by the current during the underwater photography, the staff member quickly reached out to support me, allowing me to enjoy myself without any concerns. It was great that they provided skincare products like lotion and a hairdryer. I thought it would have been even better if the shower had warm water.

Thank you for taking so many wonderful photos and videos! I would love to experience this again!

I apologize for any inconvenience caused in the parking lot.

水中で、スタッフのお兄さんがちょっと待っててと言って

コクテンフグ
泳ぎが下手

と言って私たちに見せてくれました。
そのめちゃめちゃ愛くるしい姿に魅了されまくりでした。たまたま出会えたその子も含め、たくさんの色とりどりの魚がいて最高の思い出になりました。
写真で見ていた青の洞窟をこの目で見ることができ感動しました。

機材の説明から水中、終わりまで、丁寧に楽しく説明していただけたので不安は一切ありませんでした。
準備や片付けなど面倒なことは全てやっていただけて、手軽に楽しめる贅沢な経験でした。
水中写真撮影のとき水の流れに逆らえず流れそうになっても、すぐお兄さんが手を伸ばして支えてくれるので安心して楽しむことができました。
化粧水や乳液、ドライヤーも完備されてて、とても良かったです。
シャワーは温かいお湯が出たらさらに良かったなと思いました。

たくさんの素敵な写真や動画を撮ってくださりありがとうございました！
また体験したいです！

駐車場ではご迷惑をおかけして申し訳ありませんでした。

I had planned a trip to Okinawa with a friend, but they couldn't make it, so I ended up going alone. Honestly, at first, I thought, "Oh, I'm going alone..." but by the end, I had so much fun that I completely forgot about it!

It was great that I was the only Japanese speaker that day, allowing me to fully enjoy the atmosphere of an overseas resort. In fact, it was very relaxing to spend time without having to worry about anything (laughs).

The staff explained everything carefully, alternating between Japanese and English, which made it easy to understand and allowed me to participate with confidence. Moreover, the water was incredibly clear that day, and I even got to see sea turtles, which made me very satisfied.

This was my first time in Kerama, and I had wanted to go for a long time, so I'm really glad I didn't give up just because I was going alone.

Another highlight was receiving photos taken with a GoPro, which allowed me to capture memories. I plan to show them off to my friends when I get back!

沖縄旅行を一緒に予定していた友人が来られなくなり、急遽ひとりで参加しました。正直、最初は「ひとりか…」と思っていたのですが、終わる頃にはそんなことを忘れるくらい楽しめました！

たまたまこの日は日本語話者が自分だけで、海外リゾートらしい雰囲気を存分に味わえたのも良かったです。むしろ気を遣わずに過ごせて、とても気楽でした（笑）

スタッフの方は日本語と英語を交互に使いながら丁寧に説明してくださったので、内容も分かりやすく安心して参加できました。さらに、この日は海の透明度がとても高く、ウミガメにも出会うことができて大満足です。

初めての慶良間だったので以前から行ってみたいと思っていましたが、「ひとり参加だから」という理由で諦めなくて本当に良かったなと。

GoProで撮影した写真をもらえたのも嬉しいポイントで、思い出を写真に残すことができたので、帰ったら友人に自慢しようと思います。

I received accurate advice and was able to stand up right away. I was very satisfied to experience the joy of surfing. Thank you very much.

的確なアドバイスをいただき、すぐに立つことができました。
サーフィンの楽しさを体感でき大満足です。
ありがとうございました。

I participated with my sibling in our 20s. When you think of Okinawa, you imagine the beach, but we discovered a different side of Okinawa. Paddling the kayak was more challenging than I expected, but it became a great experience.

20代の兄妹2人で参加しました。沖縄と言えばビーチを想像しますが、また違った沖縄を発見出来ました。カヤックを漕ぐのは思った以上に大変でしたが、とてもいい経験になりました。

I learned about the bald cypress from the instructor. They also shared interesting facts about the banyan tree and mangroves. If you're curious, be sure to ask about it when you're there!

インストラクターさんにはげの木を教えてもらいました。他にもガジュマルやマングローブなどの豆知識を教えてもらいました。気になる人現地で聞いてみてください！

Thank you very much for taking care of the four mature women the other day. The Blue Cave was absolutely wonderful. Thanks to Risa's amazing support, I was able to enjoy the underwater world with peace of mind. If I have the opportunity again, I would like to rely on VELTRA. Thank you so much! ♡

先日は熟女４人、大変お世話になりました。青の洞窟、めっちゃ素敵でした。
りさちゃんの神対応のお陰で、安心して海の世界を楽しむことができました。また機会がありましたら、VELTRAさんにお世話になりたいと思います♡ありがとうございました♡

It was my first time diving and snorkeling, but the guide was very polite and kind, which was great. The sea was very beautiful.

初めてのダイビング、シュノーケリングでしたが、ガイドの方がとても丁寧で親切で良かったです
海はとても綺麗でした

It was unfortunately rainy, but I enjoyed the beautiful sea.

There were a lot of participants, and it felt a bit hectic, but I had a great time.

Thank you for everything.

あいにくの雨でしたが、綺麗な海を堪能しました。

参加人数が多く、なんとなく、セカセカしてる感じがしましたが、楽しかったです。

いろいろとありがとうございました。

The guide took us, so even as a beginner in diving, I felt safe going underwater. The weather was a bit cloudy, but I was happy to see the beautiful blue.

ガイドさんが連れて行ってくれるのでダイビング初心者でも安心して潜れました。
お天気は少し曇ってたけど綺麗な青が見れて嬉しかったです。

The changes in air pressure made it difficult to equalize my ears, and I felt a bit floaty while trying to walk underwater, which was a refreshing experience I don't usually have in my daily life. The water was clear, and the guide safely led us, allowing me to enjoy the experience without any worries.

気圧変化で耳抜きしたり水中で上手く歩けなくてフワフワしたり日常では経験しない新鮮な体験でした。
水中はクリアでガイドさんが安全に案内してくれて不安なく楽しめました。
