All Reviews for Tours Departing from Naha

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😇

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。

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！

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.😀!

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。

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。

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。

I made a reservation for two dives, but I felt that the communication regarding which of the three locations we would be diving at and how long we would stay at each spot was a bit lacking. However, most of the participants were foreigners, which added to the feeling of being out of place. The refreshing and handsome instructor took photos with the sea turtles, and I was truly very satisfied with the experience. I would love to use this service again if the opportunity arises.

2ダイブで予約をしましたが、
3地点の内のどこでダイビングをするかとか、
ここで何分くらい滞在するのかとか、
情報伝達が少し雑な気もしましたが、
参加者の殆どが外国の方でアウェイ感もある中、
爽やかイケメンインストラクターさんが、
海亀との写真を撮ってくれて、
本当に大満足でした。
また機会があったら利用したいです。

I enjoyed a day of experience diving with my two 13-year-old grandchildren. It was a sunny day just after the start of the rainy season, and we were lucky to dive with calm sea conditions. The instructor was very skilled, and my grandchildren had a great time on their first dive.

13才の孫2人と体験ダイビング1日を堪能しました。梅雨入り直後の晴れた1日で運良く潜れ、海況も穏やかな一日でした。
イントラさんもとても上手で、孫2人も初ダイブを楽しみました。

I was quite worried about the bad weather in the morning, but by the afternoon, it cleared up and in front of me was the blue sea 💙🏝️. The underwater world was surrounded by coral, and I saw sea turtles, Nemo, blue and pink fish, sea snakes, small sharks, and even an octopus 🐢✨🐠🦈🐙!! I was able to swim a lot and see so many things; it was an incredibly fun and amazing experience on the tour 🎵. I definitely want to participate again 😊.

朝お天気が悪くかなり心配でしたが、午後には晴れて目の前にはブルーの海💙🏝️
海の中は珊瑚に囲まれウミガメもニモもブルーとピンクの魚もウミヘビも小さなサメも、なんとタコも🐢✨🐠🦈🐙！！
たくさん泳げてたくさん見れてめちゃ楽しく最高の体験をさせて頂けるツアーでした🎵是非また参加したいです😊

The weather on the day was cloudy, but the sea in Kerama was very beautiful. I was able to encounter sea turtles and see beautiful fish and coral reefs.

当日の天気は曇りでしたが、慶良間の海はとても綺麗でした。ウミガメにも出会えて綺麗な魚や珊瑚礁を見ることができました。

First time snorkeling in Kerama! The staff were very cheerful, kind, and attentive, taking great care of us. Thanks to them, I made wonderful memories in Okinawa! Thank you 😊

慶良間初シュノーケル！
とても従業員の方が明るく優しく丁寧に色々とお世話になりました。
そのおかげで沖縄でのいい思い出が出来ました！ありがとうございます😊

I boarded the ship at the end of the year, but I got quite seasick. I took motion sickness medication, but whether the weather is favorable or if you can see whales is all up to luck. It's not about the quality of the tour company. I did catch a glimpse of a whale's tail! (*^_^*)

年末に乗船しましたが、かなり船酔いしました。
酔い止めを飲んでいましたが、天候に恵まれるか、クジラに会えるかは運です。
催行会社の善しあしではありません。
クジラのしっぽ少し見えました(*^_^*)

I was able to see various kinds of fish, and I even got to meet a sea turtle, which made for the best memories! The guide was entertaining and explained everything clearly, and in the end, I jumped off from the second floor of the boat, haha! I thoroughly enjoyed the waters of Kerama!

様々な種類の魚が見れた他、
ウミガメにも会えて最高の思い出です！
ガイドさんも面白くわかりやすく説明してくださり、最後は船の二階から飛び込みww
慶良間の海を堪能できました！

The guide, Dora, was really great. The other staff members were also very cheerful and kind. There were repeat visitors, and I understood the meaning of that.

ガイドのドーアさんが本当に良かったです。他のスタッフの方々もとても明るく親切でした。リピーターの方もいらっしゃってその意味が理解できました。

I thought I would be able to see them up close, so it felt more like a confirmation of their existence, and I couldn't really gauge their size. Since whether a whale appears near the boat is a matter of luck, I guess I just have to accept that I wasn't lucky this time. I hope for better luck next time.

勝手にもっと近くで見られるのかと思っていたので、生存確認した位の感じで大きさも分からない感じでした。船の近くに鯨が現れるかは運次第という事なので、今回は運がなかったと思うしかないかな?次回に期待したい。

The sea was very clear and it was amazing! I was really moved to see turtles, various fish, and corals. There were so many things that you can only experience here, and it was really great!

海がとても透き通っていて最高でした！
亀や色々な魚サンゴも見れてとても感動しました。ここでしか味わえないものがたくさんありとてもよかったです！

Unfortunately, the waves were high, and we couldn't spot the whales in the direction the guide pointed. I was fine, but many others got seasick.

あいにく波が高くガイドさんが指差す方向にクジラの姿を確認する事ができませんでした。私は大丈夫でしたが、船酔いする方もおおかったです。

We were able to see whales about every 15 minutes with the naked eye. Additionally, the staff provided explanations about the whales until we reached the viewing point, which helped reduce seasickness.

They also provided etiquette bags, and the restrooms and the interior of the boat were clean. The staff took many photos, which are uploaded to their website, so you can download beautiful images.

It feels like a roller coaster on the waves, and it shakes for about 20 minutes, so it's best not to eat for two hours before boarding.

肉眼でも15分に一回は見れました。またポイントに到着するまでもくじらについて説明をして頂き酔いが軽減されます。
エチケット袋も用意されて、トイレ、船内綺麗でした。
スタッフの方も写真を沢山撮られて、ホームページにアップされているため、綺麗が画像をダンロードできます。
波のジェットコースターみたいな感じで20分は揺れますので、乗船前2時間は食べない方が良いです。

I participated in the tour in the afternoon. I was looking forward to seeing a mother and child pair, as they had been spotted in the morning tour, but we couldn't find them at that location. We moved to another spot, and although it took a while, it seemed there was a pair of whales. Everyone moved to the front of the boat and waited for a while until we spotted them surfacing in the distance. We saw their tails, but then they dove back down, and we waited for about 20 to 30 minutes. During the second sighting, we were able to see them again, but they were still quite far away, just enough to confirm their presence.

Since they are wild animals, I believe it's all about luck regarding when, where, and how close you can see them. I asked the staff if they had seen them up close this year, and they said there had been a few occasions. While we did get to see them, I think it's better to manage expectations about the distance at which you might see them.

I realized that nature isn't as forgiving as one might think when actually participating in the tour.

I appreciated the staff's considerable efforts to ensure that the customers could see the whales.

午後便でツアーに参加しました。
午前便では親子が見れたとの事で期待していましたが、その場所では見つけられず別の場所に移動、次の場所でもなかなか見つけられないでいましたがペアのクジラがいたみたいで皆んなで船の前に移動してしばらく待ち続けていたら遠くで息継ぎの姿発見、尻尾が見えたのでまた潜ってしまい、そのまま2〜30分そのまま待機、2度目の発見で見る事ができましたがまた遠くている事が確認できる程度でした。
相手は自然の生き物なのでいつどこでどの位の距離で見れるかは運だと思います。
スタッフに今年近くで見れた事あるか聞いたけど数回ありましたよ、との事。
確かに見る事はできましたが思い描く距離では見れないと思っていた方が良いと思います。

それほど自然界は甘くないと思うのが実際参加して思いました。

スタッフの方はお客さんに見てもらうためにかなりの努力はしていると思うので感謝しました。

The captain and the crew worked hard to find the whales. Thank you very much. The cruising experience was also fantastic.

船長さんをはじめクルーのみなさんが懸命にクジラを探してくれました。ありがとうございました。
クルージングも最高でした。

It was my first time snorkeling domestically, but the facilities were well-equipped and the staff were friendly, so I had a fun and comfortable experience. I truly think the beauty of Kerama Blue is amazing. I was also satisfied to see whales.

国内シュノーケリングは初めてでしたが、設備が整っていて、スタッフも親切だったので楽しく快適に過ごしました。慶良間ブルーの美しさは本当に素晴らしいと思います。
クジラも見られて満足しました。

I had an amazing time! A whale came right next to us. Both adults and children were super excited! It was a very precious experience! The staff members were also very kind! Thank you very much.

すごく楽しかったです！
クジラがすぐ側に来てくれました。
大人も子供も大興奮！？
とても貴重な体験をさせていただきました！

スタッフの方々もとても親切でした！
ありがとうございました。

Due to the weather conditions from the previous day, the waves were high 🌊. Although I was initially thrilled with the ride, feeling like I was already on an attraction, I gradually started to feel seasick 😫 and my mood went down ⤵️.

When we anchored at our destination, we were able to see the whale spouting a few times, even if just for a moment 🙌🏻. Since it was a small boat, they moved around to give everyone a better view, and everyone was overjoyed ☺️. Motion sickness medication is a must‼️ Depending on the weather, you might still get seasick even if you take it. It might be better to prepare yourself before boarding 💦.

The staff were all very pleasant and supportive, which was reassuring ✨✨✨. Overall, I had a great time 🙆‍♀️.

前日の天候の影響で波が高かく🌊
出発して早々にアトラクションに乗っているかの様な乗り心地で喜んでいたはずが
次第に船酔いになり😫気分は⤵️
目的地に停泊してたら🐳の潮吹きや
一瞬だけですが姿が数回見れました🙌🏻
小型の船なので見やすい様に移動してくれて皆んな大喜びでした☺️
酔い止めは必須‼️天気によっては、飲んでも酔うと思います。
覚悟して乗船した方が良いかもです💦

スタッフの方々は皆んな気持ち良い対応して下さり心強かったです✨✨✨
最終的な感想は楽しかったです🙆‍♀️

Since it's a tour involving nature, seeing whales depends on luck. However, fortunately, we were able to enjoy it. The staff were bright, fun, and kind, which was great. I think it's rare to see a whale jump like in the promotional photos, but if you encounter a whale, you can still have a decent time.

自然が相手のツアーなので、鯨が見られるのは、運しだいです。
しかし、幸い、堪能することができました。
スタッフの皆様も明るく・楽しく・親切で良かったです。
イメージ写真のように、鯨のジャンプを見ることは稀？だとは思いますが、鯨で出会えれば、そこそこ楽しめますね。

I think it was a boat with about 60 people. Since it was a weekday in January, I thought there would be a lot of empty seats, but there were quite a few participants, almost full. It might depend on the day, but it was quite rocky. There were moments where it felt like a roller coaster going up and down, and people were exclaiming "Wow!" I took motion sickness medicine, but I still felt quite nauseous. Some people were down for the count.

We had a hard time spotting whales, but the boats were communicating with each other, and we got a message from a boat that found them, which led to applause from everyone! The whales were far away, so we couldn't see them as they appear in magazines, but we were able to see small sprays of water and the tails and backs coming out of the sea.

They were small, but since it's rare to see them with the naked eye, it was quite satisfying. The staff also uploads photos taken with an amazing telephoto lens camera online.

60人ぐらいの船だったと思います。1月の平日なので空きが多いかと思いましたが、結構満席に近いぐらい参加者がいました。
日によるのかもしれないけど、だいぶ揺れます。ジェットコースターのように上から下への瞬間もあって「おお～」という声が。酔止めを飲んだのですが、かなり酔いました。ダウンしている人もいました。
クジラはなかなか見つけられなかったのですが、船同士で連絡しあってるとのことで見つけた船から連絡があり、一同拍手に！
クジラは遠くにいるので、雑誌等の写真でみるような姿は見えません。小さく塩を吹いたり、海から出ている尾ひれや背中を見ることができました。
小さいですが、めったに肉眼でみることはできないので、満足感はあります。
スタッフの方が、すごい望遠レンズのカメラで撮影した写真をネットに上げてくれます。

The ship is large and extremely stable. The underwater observation room in the hull offers an experience that surpasses that of an aquarium. I was able to fully enjoy the coral reefs and the fish spread out on the seabed.

船は大きく、安定感抜群。艦底の海中展望室は、水族館以上の臨場感。海底にひろがる珊瑚礁と魚たちを存分に観ることができました。

I was able to enjoy the trip on a large boat without getting seasick. The schedule included about an hour of searching for whales on the way there, an observation time of about an hour, and I think the return trip took around 40 minutes at the fastest. We went out to the front deck to observe the whales.

大きな船で船酔いもせずに楽しく見て帰ってこれました。
スケジュールも行きがクジラを探しながら１時間程度で、観察も１時間程度、帰りは早くて４０分程度だったように思います。
前方デッキに出て、クジラを観察します。
