My friend and I took part in the mangrove and sea kayak combo tour and they were both awesome! You can totally feel the difference while paddling through the river and the sea. Unlike our experience kayaking in other countries where you're basically thrown into the water, our guide taught us how to steer, lead the way, took pictures and kept an eye on us the entire time so it felt extremely safe.
Even if you don't understand Japanese, it's definitely worth a try! With the mangroves disappearing on various parts on earth, I felt this was a very important and valuable experience.
