With the concept of the plan being "to make many people smile," our dedicated cameraman guides (divers) will provide thorough support to children, first-timers, and those who are not good at swimming. ■SDO (
The first outdoor leisure activity that we would like you to experience on the main island of Okinawa is "experience diving" that you can enjoy at the super famous activity spot "Blue Cave" that is well known to those who are thinking of traveling to Okinawa. .. "Experience diving" is a plan that even beginners who do not have a diving license can dive in the underwater world, and most divers are a gateway to diving aiming to acquire a license by knowing the charm of the sea with this "experience diving" It is a course. Of course, most people other than those who aim to be a full-fledged diver will enjoy it as a leisure activity during their stay in Okinawa, so if you are diving in Okinawa for the first time, we recommend that you dive in this "blue cave" without hesitation! !!

2. [Okinawa / Nago] Run comfortably in the forest of Yanbaru with a 4-wheel buggy! There is also a walking time [Buggy Ride Tour]
When you think of outdoor activities that you enjoy when traveling to tropical Okinawa, you tend to think of the "sea", but we also recommend events where you can fully enjoy the nature of the "mountains" such as the Yanbaru forest, which is overgrown with subtropical virgin forest. This "four-wheel buggy" experience tour is a vehicle-based activity that is enjoyed by many as a popular event in the main island of Okinawa area. At the nature experience-type tourist facility "Dokidoki Yambarunture" that we are introducing, you can experience a thrilling adventure where you can drive an off-road motocross course created in the forest with a four-wheeled buggy (ATV) utilizing the natural terrain. Let's enjoy the ups and downs and undulating course while sometimes getting muddy. No car license is required and children can enjoy it together.

Experience Churaumi Blue by exploring the Blue Cave. Since you are wearing a life jacket, you can participate with confidence even if you are not good at swimming or with children. Of tropical fish
Another plan from the standard spot "Blue Cave" for activities in Okinawa sightseeing introduced above is a "snorkeling" experience plan that anyone from children to adults can enjoy. Even those who are not good at swimming can participate with peace of mind, so it is often despised as "snorkeling", but it is a super classic marine leisure that always ranks in the top 3 in the Okinawa leisure popularity ranking. Not only how to enjoy looking into the sea by wearing a general snorkel mask, but also touching on the many scenic points guided by professional local guides and instructors and the "real way to enjoy the sea" that can only be taught by professionals. It is attractive to be able to do it. If you are a writer and want to enjoy it with your family, it may be the most recommended among the ones we have introduced.

Discount campaign in progress!! ★ Come empty-handed! Half-day offshore fishing tour ★ Free rental of fishing rods, bait, etc. ♪ You can catch colorful Okinawan fish such as Gurukun, parrotfish, filefish, jiangshan, and blue tangs ♪ Captain Uminchu, a veteran with over 15 years of offshore fishing experience, will guide you through the local sea! This boat is for the simplest type of fishing, sabiki fishing.
"Fishing" is the most recommended outdoor activity to enjoy during your trip to Okinawa during Golden Week like a writer. Fishing in Okinawa is completely different from that in other places. For example, you can enjoy fishing in the emerald green ocean just by cruising on a boat as a splendid activity, and you can also catch a little rare tropical fish. "Tropical" If you can enjoy "fishing", you may want to try it not only for those who like fishing but also for those who are not usually interested. Okinawa fishing is not a sea fishing that full-fledged anglers enjoy as a "hobby", but an Okinawan fishing that anyone, regardless of age or sex, can easily participate in as a "leisure". Of course, the rental fee for a set of tools necessary for fishing is also included in the experience fee, so you can participate empty-handed even when traveling. Please come and think that you have been deceived.

5. [Kouri Island / Haneji Inland Sea Area] Mangrove tour by sea kayaking (banana boat once service)
Mangrove kayak experience tour (Kouri Ohashi Bridge/Haji Inland Sea area)
- 4.7
- (114 reviews and experiences)
A healing mangrove kayak experience at a point that is not well known even locally! The tour will be tailored to high tide (high tide time and meeting time change daily) At low tide (time when the tide is low), the area around the mangroves will be dry, such as shallows and sandy areas. The area around the mangrove forest is narrow due to the widening water area.
Lastly, I would like to introduce a sea kayak cruising tour of the mangrove virgin forest, which is also synonymous with the outdoors of Okinawa. If you take a leisurely boat while observing the scenery of Yanbaru, which is also a national natural monument, and the flora and fauna that live there, you will be in the world of real jungle cruises. This plan uses a two-seater sea kayak, so it may be fun to participate as a couple or parent and child. Okinawa will guide you to a secret point that is not well known to the locals, so you will be waiting for a spectacular view that is sure to be "instagram". For outdoor leisure trips to Okinawa, please experience not only the activities of the sea but also the activities of the river.

Okinawa main island area sightseeing spot recommended leisure activity summary
The above are 5 recommended outdoor leisure activities for 2019 Golden Week, selected from the perspective of a writer who calls himself an Okinawa freak. Of course, please refer to this information when choosing an activity plan not only for Golden Week but also for other consecutive holidays such as summer vacation. Not only marine sports to enjoy the beautiful coral reef sea, but also mountains and rivers are absolutely essential points when talking about the nature of Okinawa.
