All Reviews for 沖繩活動

The whole family had our first snorkeling experience! The instructions were thorough, and we felt comfortable participating.

Since it was our first time, we didn't have the chance to film ourselves, so we had someone take photos and videos for us.

It was the day the rainy season ended, and the weather was great. We were able to see a beautiful ocean that exceeded our expectations. I thought the kids might be scared, but they were actively enjoying it instead. We got a lot of wonderful photos, making for great memories!

We want to go again! (*^^*)

家族全員、シュノーケル初体験！
丁寧に説明して頂き、安心して参加する事が出来ました。

初体験なので動画を撮る余裕がなかったので、デジカメ撮影と動画と同時に撮ってもらいました。

ちょうど梅雨明けの日で天気もよく、想像以上に綺麗な海を見る事ができました。
子ども達は怖がるかも…と思いきや、積極的に楽しんでいました。
素敵な写真もたくさん撮って頂き、いい記念になりました！

またいきたいです(*^^*)

This time, I participated with my husband and our 2-year-old daughter. Since our daughter is still 2 years old, I thought a tour where we could see fish from the boat would be just right. While waiting in the lounge, the level of the boat's sway and the visibility underwater were displayed, which was helpful. I believe the sway was at level 3, but in reality, the boat's movement was hardly noticeable.

Now, I was surprised that the Orca was quite an ordinary boat. I had imagined something like a submarine... like a Yellow Submarine. I wondered if this was going to dive underwater? No, right?

As we set sail, we enjoyed the view of Naha while feeling the wind on the boat. After a while, a staff member guided us to a room that led to the boat's lower deck. I understood what it was about.

It was a glass-walled room that opened up to the underwater world. The beauty of it instantly lifted my spirits. "Wow! So this is what the bottom of the sea looks like?" It was amazing. Schools of fish, coral, and jellyfish were floating around. They also provided explanations.

Our daughter was captivated by the underwater world and wasn't scared at all. Both my husband and I are not good at sports, and we thought diving would be scary and tiring, so we felt it was something we would never do. However, riding the Orca allowed us to discover the underwater world for the first time. It was truly mystical! The day before, we had visited the Churaumi Aquarium, but what we saw there was completely different. I had thought, "We're already seeing fish at the aquarium," but it was entirely another experience. Everything was a first for us.

The tour ended after about an hour. I didn't feel seasick at all. Since we booked the earliest time slot, we headed straight to the beach afterward to swim. It was great to make effective use of our time.

Oh, and before disembarking, we received a magnet from the Orca as a souvenir, enough for everyone. That made me happy too. If I have another opportunity to travel to Okinawa, I would like to invite my grandparents to join us. Thank you very much.

今回、私、夫、2歳の娘と参加しました。
娘がまだ2歳なので、船から魚の見れるツアーはちょうどいいかなと思って決めました。
待合で待っていると、本日の船の揺れや、海の中見える度が、レベルで表示されていて、参考になりました。確か、揺れますのレベル3でしたが、実際船の揺れは気にならない程度でした。
さて、案内されたオルカ号は案外普通の船でびっくりしました。私はいかにも潜水艦をイメージしていました。・・イエローサブマリンみたいな。これが海の中潜るの？違うよね、と。
出航して船上から風をきり、那覇の景色を楽しみました。しばらくして係の方が船の地下に続く部屋を案内してくれました。
そういうことか、とわかりました。
そこはガラス張りの部屋で海底の世界が広がっていました。あまりの綺麗さに一気にテンション上がりました。
えー！今いた海の底ってこんな風になってたの？すごいね。といった具合に。
魚の群れ、さんご、クラゲもフワフワしてました。解説もしてくれました。
娘も怖がらず、海底の世界に釘付けでした。
私も夫も、スポーツ苦手で、怖いし疲れそうだしダイビングなど一生縁がない感じでしたが、オルカ号に乗って初めて海底の世界を知ることができました。
本当神秘的！前日にちゅらうみ水族館行ったのですが、そこで見た世界とは全然違いました。
水族館で魚見てるしなぁ、と少し思ってたのですが、まったく別物です。全て初めて見た景色でした。
一時間程でツアーは終了。船酔いもまったくしませんでした。
朝一の時間帯で申し込んだので、その後すぐビーチに向かい泳ぎました。時間が有効に使えて良かったです。
あ、それと、下船の前にオルカ号のマグネットをお土産にいただきました。ちゃんと人数分。これも嬉しかったです。
次回沖縄旅行の機会があれば、おじいちゃん、おばあちゃんも誘って一緒に行きたいです。ありがとうございました。

I was able to visit all the places I really wanted to go, like Churaumi Aquarium, Kouri Island, Okinawa Fruits Land, and American Village in Chatan!

At Churaumi Aquarium and Chatan, I had plenty of free time to fully enjoy myself!

At Okinawa Fruits Land, there were so many people that I couldn't hear the guide's explanations about the fruits from the back, which was disappointing. I also wanted to try the large parfait, but I had to give up sadly due to time constraints. I definitely plan to make a comeback next time!

At Churaumi Aquarium, there were not only the main aquarium but also a planetarium and dolphin shows, so there were really a lot of facilities to enjoy, and it was so much fun!

American Village in Chatan is very spacious, and the buildings have unique shapes, making it feel like an overseas trip! I was able to ride the Ferris wheel just as the sun was setting, and I'm really glad I went. If you visit American Village in Chatan, I recommend trying the Kijimuna's Omutaco rice!

At Kouri Island, I recommend the dessert with shaved ice topped with Blue Seal soft serve! It was super delicious!

I would love to participate again!

美ら海水族館や古宇利島、OKINAWAフルーツランドや北谷のアメリカンビレッジ…本当に行きたい所全部行けた！って感じでした♪

美ら海水族館や北谷は自由時間が長く充分満喫出来ました♪

OKINAWAフルーツランドでは人が多くてガイドさんが果物の説明をしていても後ろの方まで聞こえなかったのが残念でした(´・ω・｀)
大きなパフェも食べたかったのですが、時間もなく泣く泣く断念(T_T)
次回絶対リベンジしようと思います♪

美ら海水族館ではメインの水族館はもちろん、プラネタリウムやイルカショーと本当に色々な施設があり、とても楽しかったです♡

北谷のアメリカンビレッジはとても広くて、建物が独特な形で気分は海外旅行♪
ちょうど日が沈むタイミングで観覧車に乗れました、本当に行って良かった( ´∀｀)
北谷のアメリカンビレッジに行ったら、きじむなぁのオムタコライスおすすめ♡

古宇利島はかき氷のぜんざいにブルーシールソフトクリームの乗ったデザートがおすすめ！
めっちゃ美味しかった♡

またもう一度参加したいです♪

A trip to Okinawa with my daughter!
We participated in a plan that gathered at 10 AM on June 27 (Monday).
A staff member from our group guided us from the boat to swim into the cave. There was an unusual traffic jam at that time, but we thought that if we didn't endure this, we wouldn't get to see the breathtaking views, so we floated and waited for 30 minutes.
It was worth the wait because the blue was so vibrant!!! It felt like it was glowing! I was amazed by the beauty and the natural phenomenon. The staff also took great photos for us.
After leaving the cave and before returning to the boat, they took pictures of us feeding the fish and floating in the sea.
We received a CD full of memories that we couldn't capture ourselves, and I think this price is quite a bargain.
Thank you for a fun and wonderful time.

娘と二人旅の沖縄旅！
６月27日（月）の10時集合のプランに参加しました。
1グループに１人のスタッフが、船から降りて泳いで洞窟に案内してくれました。この日この時間は、いつにない渋滞ができてました。でも、これを我慢しまいと、絶景には会えない訳だから、30分ぷかぷか浮かんで並びました。
でも並んだ甲斐あって、青い青い青い！！！青く光ってる感じ！きれいなのと自然現象に、びっくりでした。貴重な写真もスタッフがバッチリ撮ってくれます。
洞窟を出て、船に戻るまでの間は、お魚にエサをあげて戯れてる写真や海の忮から浮かんでる私たちを撮ってくれる。
自分たちでは、撮れない思い出がいっぱいのCDもついてて、この価格は、かなりお得だと思います。
楽しい、素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

The weather was a bit bad, so we couldn't do a beach entry. I'm glad we had made a reservation for a boat entry. It was reassuring to have one guide for each group. They took photos at various points, which became great memories. The color of the sea was beautiful as well.

少し天候が悪くビーチエントリーは出来ない日でした。
ボートエントリーで予約しておいて良かったです。
一組にガイドが1人付いてくれるので安心でした。
いろいろなポイントで写真も撮ってくれて記念になりました。
海の色も綺麗で良かったです。

I have visited the Churaumi Aquarium several times on tours, but I'm glad I made it to Kunigami Village. The emotion I felt when I saw Yoron Island from Cape Hedo was incredible, and especially, the Great Stone Forest was magnificent. If I had a bit more time, I would have loved to walk the Giant Rocks and Stone Forest course. While circling the Rock of Rebirth three times, I wished to be born as a human again. The "Picasso" rock was particularly interesting, as it looked like the "Devil Rock" from certain angles! There were various fascinating rocks like the Elephant Parent and Child Rock and the Cat Rock, and the view of the ocean from the Churaumi Observatory was the best. I thought that if we had a little more time to explore the Great Stone Forest, we could have enjoyed the sightseeing even more. As a flower lover, I was thrilled to take photos of the papaya flowers, which I can't see on the main island of Kyushu.

At the Okichan Theater in the Churaumi Aquarium in Motobu Town, I was healed by the adorable dolphin show, laughing many times and returning to my childhood. Being here, both young and old felt like there wasn't enough time, and before I knew it, it was time to gather, leaving me with a sense of regret as I boarded the bus. The purple sweet potato tart at the snack shop was the best, and the fresh tart that can only be eaten here left a lasting memory of its delicious taste.

This time, we older travelers had a great time, so I think it would be wonderful if this tour plan could be promoted to more people. It would be good to have more visibility online to catch the attention of older travelers.

何度か美ら海水族館までツアーで来てましたが国頭村まで来て良かったです。辺戸岬から与論島を見た時の感動、特に大石林山は素晴らしくもう少し時間があれば１コ－スの巨岩-石林感動コ－スも歩きたかったですね。生まれ変わりの岩など３回回りながら次も人間に生まれたいと願いつつ楽しみ『ピカソ』岩は特に面白く見る方向で『悪魔岩』に！象の親子岩、猫岩等色々な面白い岩や美ら海展望台から見る海原は最高で大石林山周遊時間をもう少し増やしたら観光ももっと楽しめたかなと思い、九州本土では見れ無いパパイヤの花等花好きの私はルンルンで写真撮影。本部町の美ら海水族館のオキちゃん劇場では可愛いイルカショーに心癒され何度も大笑いし童心に帰りました。此処に居ると老いも若きも時間が足りないと駆け足でみて回りあっと言う間に集合時間となり後ろ髪引かれる思いでバスに乗り込むことに。立ち寄りのお菓子御殿での紫芋タルト此処でしか食べられない生タルトは最高に美味しく思い出に残る味でした。
今回私達年配者も充分楽しめましたので今回のツアープランを沢山の方々にももっとアピールされたら良いのではと思います。もっと年配者の目に止まるようにネットでもされたら良いでしょう。

Since I was traveling alone and couldn't drive, I participated in this tour. The weather was also favorable, making it a wonderful day.

一人旅で車も運転できないので、こちらのツアーに参加させて頂きました。
天気にも恵まれ、素敵な1日になりました。

First of all, I'm a foreigner, so my Japanese isn't very good, and I hope everyone understands. I've wanted to go to Okinawa for a long time, and my wish finally came true! However, as a foreigner, I can't drive and don't understand the transportation system... So I thought about doing a one-day tour and decided on a plan from Veltra after searching online.

Now, let's get to the main topic, lol. First, we were welcomed at various meeting points in Naha. We boarded near Tomarin, right on schedule! First, we headed to Kouri Island! The road was a bit long, but with the automatic guide machine that had seven languages, it was no problem. Plus, the guide was kind and explained everything. Kouri Island is as beautiful as the pictures! The view of the blue sea connecting the islands is a highlight. Kouri Beach wasn't too crowded, and I got some great photos! Next, we headed to the legendary Churaumi Aquarium, lol. The bus stopped at the station, and we followed the guide to arrive. As expected from the world-famous Churaumi, there were fish and creatures I've never seen before! The Kuroshio tank is truly breathtaking! After lunch, there was a dolphin show, and it was a great performance. I also saw sea turtles and manatees; the three hours flew by! Next, we went to Pineapple Park, where there were various tastings, so I was full, lol. Finally, we arrived at Mihama American Village. Because summer in Okinawa has long days, it wasn't night when we arrived, which was a bit disappointing.

We arrived at the hotel at nine o'clock. My body was very tired, but my heart was full! Thank you for such a wonderful day!

まず、自分は外国人だから、日本語があんまり上手ではない、皆さんがわかると嬉しい。
ずっと前から沖縄に行ってほしい、ようやく願いが叶った！でも外国人として車も運転できないし、交通もわからない。。じゃ一日ツアーにしようっと考えた～ネットで探すとveltraのプランを決定した。
そろそろ本題にしようｗｗｗ最初は那覇の各集合場所で迎えた。私たちはとまりんの近くの所で乗車した、予定時間がぴったりだ～まずは古宇利島に出発！道はちょっと遠いが、7か国言語つきの自動ガイド機があれば問題なし、それにガイドさんもやさしく使い説明をした。古宇利島は写真通りとてもキレイ！青い海に島と島を接続する景色が見どころだ。古宇利ビーチは人も多くない、いい写真が撮られた！次はあの伝説の美ら海水族館に出発www～バスは停車場にとまってガイドさんについて到着した。さすが世界有名な美ら海、今まで見たこともない魚や生物ばっかり！黒潮水槽が絶景に言われる間違いない！ランチの後ちょうどイルカの演出があって、いいパフォーマンスを感じた。ウミガメやマナティーも見えた、3時間はあっという間になくなった～次はパイナップルパークに行った、いろんな試食があるからお腹いっぱいwww最後は美浜アメリカンヴィレッジ。沖縄の夏は昼が長いせいで、到着の時まだ夜景ではない、ちょっと残念。
夜九時ホテルに到着した、体が大変疲れなのに、気持ちがいっぱいでした！とても素晴らしい一日暮せてありがとうございます！

We participated as a pair in mid-June. The conditions were fantastic, especially since it was just after the rainy season!

When we arrived at the meeting point at Manza Cape, we were greeted by a beautiful blue sky with not a cloud in sight, crystal-clear waters, intense sunlight that felt like it was piercing our skin, and a very enthusiastic instructor, Osaka-san.

This is truly THE OKINAWA!! Our excitement was already building before the tour even started!

After changing into our wetsuits and descending the stairs to enter the sea from the rocky area, Osaka-san exclaimed, "Woohoo!! It feels amazing when water gets into the wetsuit!!" He looked like he was having the most fun! With Osaka-san leading the way, we enjoyed snorkeling while heading towards the Blue Cave.

Thanks to the great conditions that day, the water was so clear that we could see deep into the coral, and we spotted quite a few large fish in the distance. Colorful tropical fish were swimming close to the surface, completely distracting us from the Blue Cave as we got lost in snorkeling! We played with many different types of fish and were already feeling satisfied even before reaching the Blue Cave. (Just between us, the underwater photos we received later had so many fish that our faces were barely visible! Haha!)

As for the Blue Cave itself, it was breathtaking! The cave was illuminated by a blue light from below, creating a stunning emerald blue view all around! It was truly impressive! The photos we received were beautiful, and we were very satisfied! They looked so good they could be featured in a magazine!

Overall, it was an incredibly satisfying tour! The scenery, the tour content, and instructor Osaka-san were all top-notch! I guarantee 100% value for money!

*As a side note, since our schedule was undecided, we were approached by Osaka-san and ended up trying out sea bob the next day, which he said is currently the most recommended marine sport. It's like a motorized boogie board that you can steer yourself, allowing you to dive and swim among the corals or chase schools of fish! (*^o^*) It's said to be a new marine sport with only a few units available in Japan, so I highly recommend it too!

6月中旬に2人で参加しました。梅雨明け直後という事もあってコンディションは抜群！
待ち合わせの場所の真栄田岬に到着すると雲ひとつない綺麗な青空、透明度MAXの美しい海、肌を突き刺すような強烈な日差し、そしてかなりテンション高めなインストラクターの大坂さんが迎えてくれます。

これこそまさにTHE・OKINAWA！！ツアー前からテンションが上がります！！

ウェットスーツに着替えて階段を降りた岩場から海に入ると、「フォー！！ウェットスーツに水入れると超気持ちいいですよー！！」と誰よりも楽しそうな大坂さん！笑
そんな大坂さんに案内され、シュノーケリングを楽しみつつ青の洞窟へと向かいます。
が、、、、当日のコンディションに恵まれたおかげか水中もかなり深くのサンゴまで透き通り、遠目ですが結構大きめのお魚さんもチラホラ。。。海面でも色鮮やかな柄の熱帯魚が引くほど寄ってきて、もう青の洞窟そっちのけでシュノーケリングに夢中！！
かなりたくさんの種類の魚と戯れ、青の洞窟に到着する前からもう満足度高めです。笑
(後ほどお送り頂いたシュノーケリングの水中写真では魚が多すぎて我々の顔がほとんど写っていなかったのはここだけの話！！笑)

肝心の青の洞窟ですが、海の下から青いライトで照らされているかのように洞窟の中が一面エメラルドブルーの絶景！！圧巻です！！
お送り頂いた写真もきれいで大満足！そのままま雑誌に載せられるんじゃないかというほど綺麗な出来栄え！笑

全体を通して大満足のツアーでした！
景色もツアー内容もインストラクターの大坂さんも最高！コスパ100%保証です！

※余談ですがスケジュールが未定だった我々は大坂さんにナンパされ、翌日に大坂さん曰く今1番のオススメマリンスポーツというシーボブに挑戦させて頂きました。
モーターのついたビート板のようなもので、自分で操縦して潜水しながらサンゴのあいだを泳いでみたり、魚の群れを追いかけてみたりなんて事も出来ちゃいます(*^o^*)
まだ日本に数台しかない新たなマリンスポーツとの事ですのでそちらもオススメですよ～！

I just returned from Okinawa, where I brought snorkeling gear right after the rainy season ended, but unfortunately, snorkeling is prohibited in most areas due to the high number of accidents. It seems the only way to snorkel is to join a tour, and there are age restrictions that require participants to be at least 6 years old. So, I found this tour that allows children under 5 to participate for free, which is perfect for families with many kids!

Additionally, younger children aged 2 to 4, who might be scared of the ocean, will likely enjoy this experience very much.

Once on board, you can sit on the first or second deck and enjoy the sea breeze while waiting to reach the destination. When you arrive, you move downstairs to sit and observe the fish in the water. Although it's hot outside, the air-conditioned lower deck is cool and comfortable for viewing. Little kids get excited spotting the fish.

While it may lack the thrill of snorkeling or diving for us adults who know the joys of those activities, this tour prioritizes the children's experience.

The meeting point is conveniently located near the airport and in Naha city, and the tour lasts about an hour, making it easy to sign up and go. There is paid parking right in front, but since you won't be parked for long, it's just a few hundred yen.

With the airport nearby, planes were constantly flying overhead, and the kids were thrilled to spot them from the boat.

This was an excellent tour for families with small children!

梅雨明けしたばかりの沖縄にシュノーケリンググッズを抱えて行ってきましたが、ナント沖縄の海は事故が多いからと、ほとんどの海でシュノーケリングは禁止。シュノーケリングはツアーで参加するしかないとのこと。しかしそのシュノーケリングツアーも6歳以上と参加条件あり。。。で、5歳の子どもを連れて沖縄の海を満喫するには、、、と見つけたこのツアーです。

5歳以下の子どもは参加費無料なので、子沢山の子連れファミリーには最高！！
その上、実際の海はまだ怖がる2〜4歳くらいの子どもは、とっても喜んでくれると思います。

乗船したら1、2階席に座って、海風を感じながら目的地まで待ちます。
目的地まで着いたら、地下に移動し、座って海の中のお魚を観察できます。
外は暑いですが、この地下はエアコン効いてて涼しく、快適に見れます。
小さな子どもはお魚を見つけてはキャッキャッと喜んでいます。
シュノーケリングやダイビングの醍醐味を知っている私達大人とっては感動に欠けますが、ここは子ども優先のツアーということで。


集合場所も空港や那覇市内から近く、ツアー所要時間も1時間くらいなので、気軽に申し込みでき、行けます。駐車場は目の前で別途有料ですが、長時間停めないので数百円です。

空港が近いので飛行機がバンバン飛んでて、船上からそれを見つけては喜んでいました。

小さい子ども連れには最高のツアーでした。

I signed up for this tour because I can't drive. In addition to visiting four popular spots, I felt that the time allocated at each location was sufficient compared to other tours, and it turned out to be perfect! ★

車が運転できないため、このツアーに申し込みました。人気スポット4か所に行けるということに加えて、各箇所の滞在時間がそのほかのツアーに比べ十分設けられていると感じたためこのツアーに参加しましたが、ばっちりでした★

I participated with my parents, but I think it's a tour that anyone can enjoy, whether you have kids or are a couple.

Since it goes through multiple hotels, it takes some time to reach the destination, but it was fun to see various hotels, and it gave me ideas like, "I want to stay at this hotel next!"

At Nago Pineapple Park, we received ice cream, at the Glass Museum, we got a small gift, and at Ryukyu Mura, we received discount coupons for souvenirs... there were many little perks that made me happy.

We also had a three-hour stay at the Churaumi Aquarium, which allowed us to leisurely explore the aquarium and shop for souvenirs.

私は両親と参加しましたが、お子様連れでもカップルでもだれでも楽しめるツアーだと思います。
多数のホテルを経由して行くので目的地に着くまでに時間はかかりますが、いろいろなホテルを見ることができて楽しいし、「次はこのホテルに泊まりたいな！」と参考になりました。
ナゴパイナップルパークでアイスがもらえたり、ガラス館で粗品がもらえたり、琉宮城でお土産の割引券がもらえたり…とちょこちょこお得な特典が多くて嬉しかったです。
美ら海水族館での滞在も3時間あり、ゆっくり水族館を見学・お土産巡りをすることができました。

This is my second trip to Okinawa this year. Last time, I tried scuba diving for the first time, which was fun, but I struggled with equalizing my ears, so this time I decided to take the Olga boat for a more relaxed underwater experience.

First, we moved to the viewpoint on the Olga boat. The boat is two stories and doesn't sway at all, allowing us to enjoy the scenery during the ride. I went to the first floor, which was cool and felt great with the sea nearby. The second floor only had a thin sheet for a roof, so it seemed like it would be hot up there.

Once we arrived at the viewpoint, we went down to the glass-bottomed cabin. When I was there, there were many passengers, so we boarded in two groups. Starting with the first floor passengers, I definitely recommend the first floor.

After descending into the cabin, we sat in two rows facing the glass. While it can't compare to scuba diving, you can see the fish swimming. (Since there is glass, the fish don't show up very well...) This cabin sways quite a bit, and since you're looking down, those who are prone to seasickness should be cautious.

After about 15 minutes of viewing, we switched with the second floor. I returned to the first floor to enjoy the sea while waiting. About 20 minutes later, we arrived at the port and disbanded.

今年2回目の沖縄旅行。
前回は初のスキューバダイビングをして、楽しかったけど耳抜きに苦労したので...今回は気楽に水中をみれるオルガ号に乗ることにしました。

まずは、ビューポイントまでオルガ号で移動します。船は2階建てで全然揺れないので、楽しく景色を見ながら移動できます。私は1階に行きましたが、涼しくて海が近くて気持ち良いです。2階は薄いシートの屋根のみなので暑そうな感じでした。

ビューポイントに着いたら、地下のガラス張りの船内に行きます。私の時は乗船客が多く、2回に分けて入りました。1階のお客さんからなので、やっぱり1階がオススメです。

船内に降りたら、外のガラスに向かって横2列に座ってみます。さすがにスキューバダイビングには負けますが、魚が泳いでいるのが見えます。（ガラスがあるので魚があまり写りません...）この船内がものすごく揺れる&下を見るので、船酔いしやすい人はご注意ください。

15分くらい鑑賞したら、2階目方と交代。1階に戻って海を鑑賞して待ちます。そこから20分くらいで港について解散です。

It was during the rainy season in June, but somehow the weather held up, and I was able to participate without any issues. The other participants on the same flight included a family with three small children and a group from overseas.

As we set sail, I heard that the waves were a bit bigger, so I took some motion sickness medication just in case, but it didn't seem to be that bad. We safely crossed the waves, and the boat came to a near stop. Finally, we headed down to the underwater viewing room.

Since there were quite a few people, I was a little worried about whether everyone would have a seat, but there was absolutely no problem, and everyone was comfortably seated. I had heard before we set sail that the seabed was a bit cloudy, but perhaps because the boat moved slowly, I thought it looked quite beautiful. The fish, which were initially scattered, gradually started to swim in groups and gathered around the boat.

As I mentioned earlier, I tend to get motion sickness, so I was concerned, but they announced beforehand that looking down continuously can make you feel sick, which helped me enjoy the experience. There were also names of the fish posted above the windows, which was helpful.

The cruising experience went by in a flash, but this time, I had to give up snorkeling due to a companion's injury, so I was very satisfied with the experience overall.

6月の梅雨の時期でしたが、なんとか天候ももち、無事に参加ができました。同じ便での参加は、三人の小さなお子さんを連れた家族と、海外からのグループのかたがたでした。

出航して、少し波が大きめとのことでしたので、一応、酔い止めも飲みましたが、そこまでではなかったような気がします。無事に波を超えて、船もほぼストップ。いよいよ、階下の海の除けるお部屋へ。

そこそこの人数がいたので、「全員座れるかな？」と少し心配したのですが、まったく問題はなく、全員がゆったり座れる状態でした。出航前に、海底が少し曇ってると聞いていたのですが、船がゆっくりと進むからでしょうか、私としてはかなりきれいに見えたと思います。お魚も最初はぱらぱらとしていたのが、だんだんと集団で泳ぐようになり、船に群がってきました。

先にも書きましたが、何分、乗り物酔いをしやすいので、心配したのですが、見るときの注意として、下を見続けると酔いやすいです、といったことを事前にアナウンスしてくださいましたので、それもあり、楽しく見ることができました。魚の名前なども窓の上に貼ってあり、参考になりました。

あっという間のクルージングでしたが、今回、同行者が怪我のため、スノーケリングはあきらめましたので、その分、大満足でした。

Okinawa was unfortunately under rainy skies, but the sea was unaffected! On this day, there was no wind and the waves were calm. My niece and I set off with our guide, Mr. Osaka.

After changing, we walked down the stairs at the cliff and entered the sea from the rocky area below. After some instructions, we quickly began snorkeling towards the cave! Underwater, we could see not only fish but also people diving.

It was about 100 meters to the cave, but we chatted and took our time, making it there easily. We entered through a slightly narrow opening, and there were several groups around us. One by one, we went in, and with our eyes closed, we were pulled to the best position… and when we opened our eyes, the beautiful blue light spread out before us!

We happened to be the only ones in the cave at that moment, and we took many wonderful photos!

After playing for a while, we headed back from the cave. On the way, when we tried feeding the fish… they all came rushing in! Energetic fish swarmed around us, it was so much fun!

Thank you for a delightful and safe experience! I would love to bring my mother along next time.

沖縄は生憎の梅雨空でしたが、海は関係な〜い！
この日は風もなく波が穏やか。私と姪の二人でガイドの大坂さんと出発。

着替えた後崖下の階段を歩いて下り、すぐ下に続く岩場から海に入っていきます。インストラクションのあと、早速洞窟に向かってシュノーケリング開始！海中では魚以外にダイビングをしている人達も見えます。
洞窟までは100メートル程ですが、お話ししながらゆっくり進んでラクに到着。
少し狭まった入り口から入るのですが、周りには何組かのグループもいます。
順番に入っていき目をつぶったままベストポジションまで引っ張ってもらい…目を開けると！あの綺麗な光を放つブルーが目の前に広がります！
ここでたまたま洞窟内には私達だけになり、沢山の素敵な写真を撮っていただきました！

ひとしきり遊んだ後、洞窟を後に引き返します。途中でお魚達にエサをあげてみると…‼︎ みんなものすごく食いついてくる！元気な魚たちがドバーッと周りには群がり、楽しい〜＼(^o^)／

楽しくて安心な体験、有難うございました！
次回は母を連れてまた参加したいです。

The hotel in Naha provided a shuttle service, making it easy to participate. Once you chose a seat on the bus, you could return to it, which was helpful as I could leave unused items on the bus.

The long Kouri Bridge leading to Kouri Island, featured in the guidebook, was stunning, and the beautiful white coral beach at Kouri Beach was breathtaking. I would have loved to be taken to the place where the guide mentioned a storm occurred.

The Churaumi Aquarium is quite far from Naha, so including it in the plan was one of the reasons I chose this course. The large tank with three whale sharks was impressive, and the dolphin shows, as well as the tanks with sea turtles and dugongs, were also worth seeing.

At Nago Pineapple Park, the stay was very short, and I wished we could have spent a bit more time there.

Mihama American Village faces Sunset Beach, and I was looking forward to the sunset, but due to the rainy season, I couldn't see a beautiful sunset. However, the lighting of the buildings in the area was beautiful and romantic, and I was glad there was enough time for a proper dinner.

From morning to night, I was thoroughly guided around Okinawa, making for a very enjoyable and meaningful day. Thank you very much.

那覇の宿泊してるホテルまで送迎があったので参加しやすかったです。バスの中は一度席を決めるとそこに戻る事が出来たので使わない物をバスの中に置いていく事が出来て助かりました。

ガイドブックにも載っていた古宇利島にかかる長い古宇利大橋、すごく海の水がキレイで白い珊瑚の海岸が素敵な古宇利ビーチは絶景でした。ガイドさんが言っていた嵐が来た場所、せっかくだから連れていってもらいたかったです。

美ら海水族館は那覇からとても遠くて行きにくいのでプランに入っているのはこのコースを選ぶポイントの1つでした。ジンベイザメが3体もいる大水槽は圧巻でしたし、イルカ達のショーやウミガメやジュゴンの水槽も見応えがありました。

名護パイナップルパークでは滞在時間がとても短かったのでもうちょっとゆっくり出来たら良かったと思いました。

美浜アメリカンヴィレッジはサンセットビーチに面していて夕焼けが楽しみだったのですが梅雨の時期というのもあってキレイな夕焼けは見れませんでした。でもこの一帯の建物のライトアップがキレイでロマンチックでしたし、しっかり晩御飯が食べれる時間があったので良かったです。

朝から晩までしっかり沖縄を案内してくれてとても楽しくて有意義な1日になりました。ありがとうございました。

This time, I participated with a foreign friend who speaks only basic Japanese, but all the staff, including the instructor, were very friendly and kind, and my friend was extremely satisfied. I definitely want to use this service again on my next trip to Okinawa and would like to recommend it to other foreigners as well.

今回日本語が片言レベルの外国人の友人を連れての参加でしたが、インストラクター含めスタッフの方はみなさんとっても愛想が良く親切で、友人も大変満足していました。是非次回沖縄旅行の際にも利用させて頂き、外国人にも紹介させて頂きたいと思います。

I would recommend this. It works out about the same as getting public transport and buying a ticket to the aquarium alone. It was a little rushed, I think the glass place and the pineapple place are a waste of time. The butterfly place was cool as was the dolphin show. The aquarium is amazing! A must see. Overall a good well organised day out.

It wasn't my first time doing similar activities. I had been to Langhawi and Bali but it wasnt as interesting as this time. There was a briefing of 5 minutes before the start of the boat trip. the staff memeber let you know about the visibility and the condition of the sea, which i think was very thoughtful for it let you know what you would expect. fortunately the visibility was ok and the sea was not rough. Although the website said the boat could carry 200 people, i just saw a group of tour and a family of japanese, which made the boat spacious and wouldnt feel cramped while all people stay on the lowest level watching the fish. i was able to see lots of fish around, it was very amazing and exciting. i took a lot of photos. this is really a great experience and is a must try when you are in okinawa

I experienced mangrove kayaking and sunset kayaking, and the sunset over the clouds in Okinawa was beyond words; it was absolutely amazing!

マングローブカヤック&サンセットカヤックを体験しましたが、沖縄での雲の上に落ちるサンセットは言葉になら無い位に
最高でした！

Since I came to Okinawa, I wanted to see the beautiful underwater scenery, so I signed up for the underwater sightseeing boat Orca cruise. The price was reasonable, and I had never experienced seeing the ocean from the bottom of a boat, so I was really looking forward to it. Also, since I was with a 0-year-old, the fact that it was a plan we could participate in was another reason I signed up.

On the day of the cruise, there were some waves, but it was sunny. The visibility was rated 2 out of 5, but I was able to see schools of beautiful fish swimming. Since it was the rainy season, I was a bit worried about rain, but it seemed to be no problem.

However, when the boat stopped at the watching point, it swayed quite a bit, so I think people who are not used to being on boats might get seasick. The boat approaches the schools of fish and provides explanations about them, and the bottom of the boat is air-conditioned, so it seemed fine even in the middle of summer.

It’s a rare opportunity to see various fish swimming in the ocean up close, so I’m glad I had such an interesting experience. On the way back, I received a magnet souvenir, which made for a nice memory.

沖縄に来たので折角なので、沖縄のキレイな海底をみたいという事になり、水中観光船オルカ号クルーズに申し込みました。
値段もリーズナブルで、船底から海を見れる経験もした事がなかったので、とても楽しみにしてました。また、0歳児も一緒なので、参加可能なプランであることも、申し込んだ理由でした。
当日は波は少しありましたが、晴天でした。透明度は2/5段階でしたが、綺麗に魚が泳いでる群れの姿も見れました。
梅雨なので、少し雨が降った場合も心配しましたが、どうやら問題なさそうです。
ただ、ウォッチングポイントで船が止まると割と船が揺れるので、普段船に乗る機会がない人は酔いやすいかと思います。
船がお魚の群れの方に近づいて、魚の説明をしてくれますし、船底は冷房が効いてて真夏でも問題なさそうです。
海で泳いでる色んな魚を生で観れる機会もほとんどないので、面白い体験が出来て良かったです。
帰りにマグネットのお土産を頂きまして、いい思い出になりました。

The instructor was very friendly and attentive. They took us to the Blue Cave at a slow pace that matched our ability, and provided a lot of explanations about the fish. Both my mother and I weren't very confident in our physical strength, but thanks to the instructor, we were able to enjoy ourselves with peace of mind. They also took many photos for us, and the time flew by. Thank you very much.

インストラクターの方がとても気さくで、丁寧でした。私たちのペースに合わせゆっくり青の洞窟まで連れて行ってくれ、お魚の説明も沢山して下さいました。私も母も余り体力に自信がなかったのですが、インストラクターの方のおかげで安心して楽しむことができました。
写真も沢山とっていただき、あっという間の時間でした。ありがとうございました。

I was looking for activities that a 2-year-old child could enjoy, and that a 0-year-old could experience together, so I booked the Orca, which offers a boat ride and underwater watching. It was conveniently located near Naha Airport, with parking right in front of the meeting point. The parking fee seemed to be 160 yen per hour.

On the day of the activity, there were two groups totaling 90 people. I was worried about the crowd, but we were guided to the underwater viewing room in two batches, so there was no issue with not having a place to sit. The water clarity was at a "can see" level in the middle, and I thought it would be tough if it got any murkier. It was quite difficult to take photos with a compact digital camera.

When we reached the viewing point, the staff scattered food, which attracted a lot of fish. It was clearer to see from the boat than from the viewing room.

My 2-year-old was super excited, even though there weren't many visible fish, because they got to ride on the boat and see airplanes. They were also happy to receive a souvenir magnet at the end.

The total duration was about an hour, and since it’s close to the airport, you can easily fit it into a short break. I recommend it for those who want to enjoy activities casually or for families with small children.

２歳の子供が楽しめて、０歳も一緒に体験できるアクティビティを探していましたが、船に乗れて、海底ウォッチングが楽しめるオルカ号を予約しました。那覇空港から近く、駐車場が集合場所の目の前なので、アクセスがよくて便利でした。駐車料金は１時間１６０円のようでした。

当日は、団体２組と一緒で、総勢９０人。混雑を心配しましたが、水中鑑賞室へは２回に分けて案内されたので、座る場所がないということはありませんでした。
海中の透明度は真ん中の「見えます」レベルで、これ以上透明度が低いと厳しいかなと思いました。コンパクトデジカメで写真を撮るのは、なかなか難しかったです。
ポイントにつくと、係員の方が餌をまくので、魚がたくさん集まってきました。鑑賞室よりも、船上からの方がはっきり見えました。

２歳の子供は、魚があまり見えなくても、船に乗れたことと、飛行機がよく見えたことで、大興奮でした。
最後にお土産のマグネットをもらってご機嫌でした。

所要時間はおよそ１時間で、空港から近いので、少しの空き時間に予定を組むことができます。気軽にアクティビティを楽しみたい方や、小さなお子様連れにはおススメです。

I participated on Sunday ☻. I was a bit anxious since it was my 5-year-old son's first time snorkeling, but the staff treated us kindly, and my child was completely unafraid and had a great time! It seems he has fallen in love with playing in the ocean, and we, as parents, were very satisfied ☻. They took a lot of photos and sent them to us right away! Snorkeling in the Blue Cave with my child was a small dream of mine, so I am truly grateful! I would like to use this service again!

日曜日に参加しました☻
5歳の男の子(シュノーケル初めて)との参加で、少し不安もありましたが…
スタッフさんが丁寧に接してくれ、子どもも全く怖がらず楽しい！また行こうね！と海遊びが大好きになった様で親も大満足でした☻
写真も沢山撮って頂き直ぐに送って下さりました！
青の洞窟で子どもと一緒にシュノーケルをするのが小さな夢だったので本当に感謝です！
また利用したいと思います！

I was torn between sea walking and the glass boat, but I chose the glass boat because I heard I could see Okinawan fish from underwater rather than from above.

When we arrived at the terminal, we were on the same boat as two other groups, but we were given priority and allowed to enter the underwater room first, where we could enjoy the beautiful Okinawan sea without needing to change clothes!

The more I looked, the more I was moved, but I did get a little seasick, so I recommend those who are prone to motion sickness take some medication before participating.

After 15 minutes of enjoying the sea breeze and the view of Naha City from the sea, we finally entered the underwater room. The underwater scenery was truly beautiful, and we were able to see many colorful fish. They were also fed, so a lot of fish gathered around us. We could see colorful coral reefs as well, and there were explanations about the fish and the coral reefs, allowing us to learn while having fun.

It's enjoyable for all ages, so I would like to take my parents as well. Additionally, the experience lasts about an hour, making it easy to participate and allowing for other activities as well. We also received a magnet as a souvenir, which was a lot of fun.

海底ウォーキングかグラスボートか迷いましたが、上からではなく海の中から沖縄の魚たちを見れると聞いてグラスボートに2名で利用しました。

ターミナルにつくと、２つの団体と同じ船でしたが、優先で先に通していただき、海中部屋にも先に見えやすいとこに通していただき着替えが必要ないまま、沖縄の綺麗な海を楽しませていただきました！

感動してみればみるほど、少し船酔いしてしまったので酔いやすいかたは酔い止めを飲んで参加がオススメです。

海風と海からの那覇市内の景色を楽しみながら走ること15分。いよいよ海中部屋へ入ります。
海の中は本当に綺麗で、いろいろなカラフルなお魚をたくさん見ることができました。
餌付け？もされていて、お魚がとてもたくさん集まってくれました。カラフルな珊瑚礁も見れて
魚の説明や珊瑚礁の説明などもあり勉強しながら楽しむことができました。
年齢問わず楽しめるので、両親なども連れていきたいと思います。
また、時間が約一時間と手軽に参加できるのも、他の体験もいろいろできるメリットと思います。
お土産にマグネットもいただきとても楽しめました。

I participated in the Kouri Island, Manza Beach, and Bise Fukugi Tree Road course during Golden Week. I chose this tour because the stay at the Churaumi Aquarium was long, but I would have appreciated a tour conducted only in Japanese if possible. On the bus back to Naha, there was a family showing Chinese cartoons to their child on a smartphone or tablet, and the volume was loud enough to be heard from the back seat. I really wished someone would have addressed that. I was very satisfied with the tour content and the guide, so it was a bit disappointing at the end.

古宇利島・万座毛・備瀬フクギ並木コース にＧＷに参加しました。美ら海水族館の滞在時間が長いのでこちらのツアーに決めましたが、出来れば日本語のみのツアーがあると嬉しいです。那覇に向かう帰りのバス内で子供にスマホかタブレットで中国語のアニメをみせている家族がいたのですが、後ろの席にまで聞こえる音量でした。さすがにこれは注意して欲しかったです。ツアー内容、ガイドさんに関してはとても満足のいくものだっただけに、最後にちょっと残念でした。

My partner is an experienced scuba diver, but I was very anxious since it was my first time snorkeling and I can't swim. However, I participated as a birthday challenge and to create memories. Contrary to my anxiety, thanks to our instructor Shion, I was able to experience an absolutely wonderful time in the sea. This has inspired me to try scuba diving next. The atmosphere among the other staff was also great, and I will definitely join Adventure Island's tours again when I visit Okinawa. Lastly, thank you for all your thoughtful care and for taking so many photos.

相方はスキューバー経験者ですが、私は初シュノーケリングに加えて泳げないので、とても不安でしたが、お誕生日の挑戦＆思い出にと参加しました。。不安とは裏原に、インストラクターのシオンさんのお陰で最高に素敵な海時間を体験する事が出来ました。これを機に次はスキューバーに挑戦したいと思います。他のスタッフの皆様の雰囲気も良く、又、沖縄を訪れる際には冒険島さんのツアーに参加させて頂きます。
最後になりましたが、色々なお気遣い、そしてたくさんの写真を撮って頂きありがとうございました。

I participated in this experience diving in May! It was the start of the rainy season, so I was worried about the weather, but it turned out to be a sunny day, which was great!

Before entering the water, the instructor kindly explained how to breathe and how to handle situations when water gets in, making it very easy to understand. Thank you so much! Since it was our first time diving for both my sister and me, we were really nervous. At first, it was tough even to breathe underwater, and we couldn't stay submerged for long (･_･;).

Even though we received thorough explanations, I got flustered and struggled to apply what I learned in the water. However, with assistance, I managed to stay underwater for a few minutes, which was a relief!

I’m really sorry for the trouble we caused to the instructor because we couldn't dive well together (´･_･`).

Although we couldn't make it to the Blue Cave, we were truly moved by the beauty of the ocean in Okinawa, and it became a wonderful memory!

After diving, there was a space in the shop with a hairdryer and mirror, which was very helpful for us as we were heading out for sightseeing afterward!

Next time, I want to try again and make it to the Blue Cave! Thank you very much!!

5月にこちらの体験ダイビングに参加させて頂きました！
梅雨に入る時期で天気が不安でしたが、その日は晴れてくれてよかったです＊

海に入る前に、呼吸の仕方から水が入ったときの対処法など丁寧に分かりやすくご説明して頂いて、ありがとうございました☆
姉妹揃って初めてのダイビングということで、とても緊張していて、始めは水中で息をすることすら辛くてなかなか長く潜ることが出来きませんでした(･_･;)

せっかく丁寧にご説明して頂いたのに、焦ってしまってなかなか海の中では実践できないところもありましたが、補助をして頂きながらなんとか数分潜ることが出来ました笑

私たちが2人揃って上手く潜ることが出来なく、担当して頂いたお兄さんには沢山ご迷惑を掛けてしまい本当申し訳ありませんでした(´･_･`)

青の洞窟までは行けなかったのですが、沖縄の海の綺麗さにとっても感動でき、素敵な思い出になりました！

ダイビング後は、お店にドライヤーや鏡などが座って使えるスペースがあり、これから観光をしに行く側としてはとても助かりました！！

次は青の洞門まで辿り着けるようリベンジしたいです♬
ありがとうございました！！

Churaumi Aquarium was a lot of fun! The guide and the driver were both nice, and it became a wonderful memory.

However, it was indeed written in the itinerary that "all-you-can-eat pineapple is included!" but it was not actually provided.

I went with my fiancé, and since we both love pineapple, we were really looking forward to the all-you-can-eat option.

So, I have some dissatisfaction... It was very disappointing.

美ら海水族館、とても楽しかったです！
ガイドさんも運転手さんもいい方で、素敵な想い出になりました。

ただ、旅程に確かに｢パイナップル食べ放題付いてます！｣と書いてあったのですが、実際はありませんでした。

婚約者と一緒に行ったのですが、パイナップルが大好きなので食べ放題をとても楽しみにしていました。

なので不満が残っています･･･
非常に残念でした

We booked our tour on a Saturday to go to the Blue Cave. As this was my first ocean snorkeling experience, I was not sure what to expect but the minute I put my mask in the water I was hooked! The water was crystal clear and the wave action was very gentle. The only major issue that I had with the whole event was that the cave staging area was PACKED with people and boats. It was fun getting to see the fish and coral and other sea life and we didn't care too much about the congestion outside of the cave but inside was a different matter. There were so many scuba divers and other snorkelers in the cave that you sometimes hit them with your swim fins and it was really crowded waiting for you turn at the photography area. Feeding the fish was fun and they swam very close. Our guide was very apologetic about the congestion, and we were having so much fun we assured him we understood and were still happy with our first experience. It remains one of our favorite memories even with the traffic jam. Next time we will book the tour on a weekday to help reduce the congestion but overall the trip was great for a first time!
