鍾乳洞ツアー参加予定が催行人数が足りず、代替ツアーとしてご紹介頂きました。「西表島の自然を満喫するツアー」として、大満足の一言に尽きます! 最初のマングローブ林では、2人でカヤック(SUP選択も可)に乗り、河口から上流に向かってマングローブを堪能しました。道中、動植物の説明やイリオモテヤマネコ・シロアリの元巣の紹介があり、「ここでしか見れない」貴重な経験をさせて頂きました! また、その後の鍾乳洞探検では3つの鍾乳洞を散策しました。最後のレベル10の鍾乳洞は腰あたりまで水に浸かって屈まないと進めない場所もあり、人の手が入っていない自然を感じることが出来ました。 随所で撮った写真をツアー終了後に送っていただきましたが、90枚越えの絶景ポートレートに感無量でした! 今回行けなかった場所もまだまだあるので、また西表島を訪れるときはお願いしたいと思っています! なお、持ち物に「濡れてもいい服装」とありますが、顔下全身水に浸かって滝下まで行くこともあるので、水着がオススメです!
