★★Google Review 5.0 Rating★★Here are some reviews we received-----I was satisfied to see the sea turtles up close and the beautiful fish. They came to pick us up and explained everything carefully. It was nice that they had shampoo, conditioner, and body soap. Above all, the cute lady was easy to talk to and very comfortable and wonderful. They said that even children aged 2 or 3 can do it, so I would like to bring my child next year! Thank you very much!! -----I thought it would be light snorkeling, but we encountered a rare manta ray at close range-----I had a very fulfilling and fun time. I went with my partner. Even though I'm not good at swimming, I enjoyed it because they used something like a kickboard to pull me. Also, they asked me in advance what kind of fish I wanted to see, so I was able to see the fish and sea turtles I wanted to see. I felt a lot of hospitality other than that. They gave me some small information about Ishigaki Island. They took me to a place where I could see Kabira Bay. They explained the Blue Cave to me carefully. They also let me see the waterfall. He also recommended some restaurants. I was also very happy with the welcome board! I would like to ask him again if I have the opportunity! -----I participated in the Blue Cave snorkeling tour. I was moved when I encountered a manta ray! Even when I got seasick on the way, the older sister was kind and helped me out, thank you very much♪-----Ishigaki Island's Blue Cave is a great place to enjoy snorkeling at a spectacular spot enveloped in a mysterious blue light. The Blue Cave offers a variety of great activities that will create unforgettable memories for beginners and experienced snorkelers, as well as families, couples, and groups of friends. Blue Cave snorkeling is sure to be a lifelong memory, as you can interact with a wide variety of sea creatures along with the blue light inside the cave. Please come and experience the spectacular views and moving experiences woven by Ishigaki Island's natural beauty on site. ♦♦Example schedule for the day of the tour♦♦9:00/14:00 Arrival at the clubhouse.

(Lunch is at your own expense), and you can have an adventure that fits your taste and physical fitness. You can enjoy the whole day, or you can finish it in a short time with only the delicious parts. The basic route is fixed, but everything depends on your request as an adventurer! (I can't do more than the guide's physical strength lol) It is an adventure where a local guide ensures safety and explains various wild birds, fish, and local culture. In addition, if you do not fail, we will give you photos during the guide and plotted GPS data on the map (data of the trajectory you traveled and navigated). Basically, we will send it within 2 hours after the end of the guided tour.

四万十川と黒尊川の合流付近〜川登大橋をバイクで登り、カヌーで下りました。「上流〜中流の変化を見たい」という無茶なオーダーに応えて、支流から本流への合流を体験させていただき大満足でした！下から地層や橋梁を見上げたり、のんびり川原の石を物色したり、ジオ旅としても素晴らしかったです。電動バイクのアシストが頼もしく、日頃スポーツをしている訳ではないですが１日元気に楽しめました。帰ると疲れがどっと出ますので、直後は予定を入れないことをオススメします笑

It is a plan to simply go down the river on a chartered tour. The Shimanto River and, if you are lucky, the tributary Kuroson River, which is cleaner than the main stream, will also be shown (depending on the amount of water). Children are welcome (from around 85 cm tall), so it is possible to go down the river while playing in the river. "Shimanto River is hard to come by, but the distance and time to go down the river is short! I want to play for a long time!" "I want to enjoy the freedom of a chartered tour!" I want to drift down the Shimanto River!” *You can even take a nap on the river. !” is the perfect plan for those who say. Leave all the trouble to the guide! So, basically, you can enjoy it empty-handed if you wear clothes that are suitable for the season and are suitable for exercise. The basic charge is for up to 2 people. Due to the availability of Okera Adventures vehicles, the maximum number of people is basically 3, but if you would like to participate with more people, please contact us. Please make a provisional reservation first. Children from around 85 cm tall can be accommodated. Please consult first.

★ Regarding "Request Reservations" If your desired date is "Request", it may not be sold out but may be available under certain conditions. (If it is an early morning departure or afternoon operation) After receiving your request reservation, we will inform you of the conditions and confirm your reservation, so please make a request first. *Due to rising prices, the tour fee will be increased by 500 yen from November 1, 2023. While enjoying a 25-minute underwater tour on a glass-bottom boat, we will guide you to "Hatenohama", an island made of sand and coral fragments floating about 3 kilometers southeast of Kumejima. The half-day tour takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes, and the stay at Hatenohama is 1.5 hours from April to October and 1 hour from November to March. It is recommended for those who want to visit other tourist spots for the remaining half of the day and those who have small children. Snorkel rental is also available as an option! ☆The charm of Hatenohama☆1: The main thing is the sea! The sea around Kumejima is known for its transparency, but the sea at Hatenohama is by far the clearest. You can even see the coral 2-3 meters below the surface in the emerald green sea. 2: Endless sandy beach The view of the white sandy beach lit up by the sunlight stretches out endlessly, giving you a feeling of air you can't experience in your everyday life. 3: A wide sky with a 360-degree view Since there is nothing around, you can see the sky that stretches out in 360 degrees. Just watching the cumulonimbus clouds moving on the wind and the plane trails flying high into the sky makes you feel the majesty of nature.

There are onigawara with open mouths and closed mouths, familiar to us as the harmony of Aun (Aun's harmony), Agyo and Ungyo, so please make the one you like. *I have been studying English for the past 3 years.

先日夫婦2人で参加しました。前日に連絡を頂きウミガメと会いたいと伝えました。当日、ホテルまで迎えに来てもらいビーチへ最初にドローン撮影との事で防波堤みたいなところに徒歩で向かいそこでいきなりウミガメと遭遇。(オッキーさんと妻は遠目にイルカも見えたらしい) いざシュノーケリングを始めるとウミガメ11匹とウミヘビと遭遇。他たくさんの魚たちと出会えました。一組限定でとても楽しく過ごさせてもらいました。その後のジェラードと鶏飯もオッキーさんと行けてとても楽しくいい思い出が出来ました。奄美に再訪の際はリピートは確実。次はダイビングに挑戦してみたいです。本当にありがとうございました。
