GWに夫婦で利用。ガイドさんが非常に親切で、ヤシガニやホタル以外のことも沢山教えてくださいました。 ホタルは、ヤエヤマヒメボタルという小さくて可愛い種類。ホタルを手に乗せることもできました。天然のイルミネーションにしばし忘我の時間。 その後はマングローブ探検に。懐中電灯を使ってヤシガニを探します。1匹くらいは見られたら嬉しいな…という期待を良い意味で裏切られ、沢山のヤシガニ(かなり大きい個体も)を見ることに成功。迫力ある姿を至近距離で捉えられました。 そしてクライマックスは星空フォト。なんと、我々の写真には運良く流れ星が映り込みました。都会では絶対に見られない満天の星空。遥々やってきて良かったと心から思わされます。初めての石垣島、夫との最高の思い出を作ることができた満点のツアーでした。おすすめです。

家族で初めて宮古島を訪れ、ナイトツアーに参加しました。 当日は日中に雨が降ったり止んだりの天気で、12月はヤシガニを見れるのか少し不安でした。 最初はなかなか見つからなかったのですが、途中で大きなヤシガニを見ることができました。綺麗でカッコイイ紫色の体に、プニプニのお腹。最終的には3匹ほど見ることができて大満足です! ヤシガニ以外にもヤドカリやヤモリ、コウモリや蛍も見ることができました。蛍も見たのは初めてなので感動でした。 ガイドのお兄さんは知識も豊富で、色んな生き物をすぐに見つけていて流石でした。 歩く距離もちょうどよく、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。ツアー後にもらった美味しいお店リストに載っていたガーリックシュリンプを食べましたが、とても美味しかったです。また宮古島に行く機会があればもう一度参加したいと思えました。

シュノーケルは、謙吾さんのガイドで参加しました。安全に気を配りながらの楽しいツアーでした。ラッキーなことにウミガメにも会えました。謙吾さんは深く潜ってたくさんの写真やビデオも送ってくださり、良い旅の思い出になりました。 ナイトツアーはゆめさんとミッキーさんの案内で、これも自分では行けない森に分け入り、ヤシガニを3匹、ほかの動物もたくさん見つけました。 ジャングルを抜けビーチで満天の星を観賞していたら、何とすぐ近くに大きなウミガメが上陸、産卵の準備を始めるではありませんか! 母ガメがあらい息遣いで砂を懸命に掘る様子を間近で観察でき、一生に一度の貴重な経験になりました。ガイドさんはツアー後参加者も交えてたくさん写真を共有してくださり、きめ細やかなフォローに深く感謝します。 想像をはるかに超える冒険の数々、本当にありがとうございました。

虫が苦手な一家なのですが笑、宮古島でしか体験できないと思い、4歳になったばかりの息子と、7歳の娘と参加しました。 とてもフレンドリーな虫好きのお兄さんのおかげで、本当に大満足な時間でした! ヤシガニ、ヤモリ、ナナフシ、コロギス、何種類かのクモ、コウモリ、天然記念物のムラサキオカヤドカリなど他にもたくさん見つけることができました! 生物はもちろん、植物も色々ご丁寧にご説明してくださって、本当に参加してよかったと思いました。 お兄さんだったからこそ、ここまで全員が楽しめた気もします。 一生懸命生き物を探して下さり、最後に満天の星空を見た時は涙が出そうになりました。 素敵なお写真も撮影していただき、ありがとうございました! 息子は、翌日もまた、昨日のところ行きたい!と言っていました。 いつかまた宮古島に来て、お願いしたいと思います。

The tour begins at the StarOcean Center House. Your guide will be a stargazing guide with extensive experience in stargazing photography, including local guides. We'll guide you to the best spots of the day, taking into account the weather and wind direction. We'll photograph in scenic locations unique to Ishigaki Island, such as quiet beaches and hills away from the city. Even beginners can feel at ease during the photography portion. We'll provide thorough support, from the ground up, on camera settings and composition, to using a free tripod rental. You can participate with any equipment, including DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and smartphones. You can also take starry sky portraits, capturing yourself silhouetted against a starry backdrop for a perfect memento of your trip. With the option to rent professional-grade equipment, even those without a camera can enjoy a full-fledged photography experience. During the tour, you'll not only see the starry skies, but also the natural beauty of Ishigaki Island. The sandy beach glistens with night dew, the shadows of gently swaying palm trees, and the sound of distant waves and insects. Your guide will move between photo spots, searching for angles with minimal light pollution to capture the perfect shot. The position of the constellations and Milky Way changes with the seasons, so no matter how many times you visit, you'll always find something new to experience. The Yaeyama Islands, including Ishigaki Island, were the first region in Japan to be designated a "Dark Sky Park." This recognition is a testament to the region's globally precious "starry sky preservation." Clear air, minimal light pollution, and a stable climate create ideal viewing conditions. As a result, not only is the Milky Way visible with the naked eye, but you can also observe Southern Hemisphere constellations like the Southern Cross and Centaurus. Seeing both northern and southern constellations simultaneously is a special sight, unique to Ishigaki Island in Japan. After your photo shoot, your guide will review your photos on the spot and offer advice on composition and exposure. You'll also receive 30 free high-resolution images. Relive your moments under the starry sky in the form of photographs. The tour lasts approximately one hour. Since it's a private tour, small children are welcome. This tour is recommended for couples, families, and solo travelers. It's also perfect for those who want to spend some quiet time under the stars. ~Schedule~ | Duration: Approximately 1 hour 20:00 Meeting (varies depending on the season) Meet in front of StarOcean Center House!

I'm a photographer born and raised on Miyakojima Island. The ocean and starry skies were a given as a child, but now I can proudly say, "There's no other place like it." Yonaha Maehama Beach is perfect for stargazing, allowing you to capture lifelong memories with the Milky Way and a star-filled sky as a backdrop. Why not capture your precious moments as a couple, family, or friends? We'll provide at least 12 photos for each couple, carefully capturing your precious moments to preserve as special memories. Summer: This is the season when the Milky Way is clearly visible. Lie on the beach and gaze at the stars, and you'll often spot a shooting star. Winter: In the winter night sky, the constellation Orion and the Winter Triangle shine brightly. The clear winter air makes the starry sky even more beautiful. After your photo shoot, be sure to lay a sheet or mat on the beach and enjoy the stars while relaxing and relaxing.

Why not take a kayak on the west coast of Ishigaki Island, where the sun sinks into the sea, and enjoy the sunset and starry sky? In order to lie down on the kayak and enjoy the sunset and starry sky, we use a large model (3-seater) that is larger than the kayaks used in regular tours, with a total length of 440 cm, a width of 80 cm, and a maximum load of 300 kg, so two people use it, which is very stable. In addition, we do not conduct tours during the day, and we are particular about preparing 4 hours before the start of the tour to choose the best point from 7 points depending on the wind direction, tide level, etc. of the day. ~ Flow of the day ~ (For example, in the case of March 1st) ① 17:35 ~ If you are renting a car, please meet directly at the clubhouse parking lot at 17:35.

Float in the sea at night and look at the starry sky, or watch the glowing nocturnal insects underwater... It is a "Healing Night tour" to enjoy such a fantastic atmosphere.
海中では夜光虫のキラキラした光りやパチパチという音がとても心地よく、夜空を見れば無数の星が輝いてました。 これをプカプカ浮かびながら見るのは最高に気持ちがよく、これだけでも石垣島に来た甲斐があったと思いました。 天体観測が趣味の人の気持ちが凄い解りました。 本当におススメです。 ガイドの方も丁寧で、星の説明もしてくれました。 風向きなどで波が立たない場所を選んでくれましたが、最高の環境でした。 ありがとうございました!また来たときはお願いしたいです!

Very popular in Miyakojima! Starry sky photo tour! A plan with hotel pick-up and drop-off, so you can feel safe even at night♪ Miyakojima at night has no street lights and the photo spots are difficult to find, so it is convenient to have a pick-up and drop-off♪ In addition, we have a long shooting time, so you can take photos while checking the photos together. It is very popular with those who want to take their time and don't want to rush♪ Same-day reservations are also welcome! When you look up at the sky, you can see countless stars. The Milky Way can be seen with the naked eye (from around June)♪ A starry sky photo tour is a way to leave a shape of the starry sky you see with your eyes♪ During the summer vacation period, you can take photos with the Milky Way♪ (There are cases where you cannot take a photo due to the movement of the clouds) Please join us when you come to Miyakojima♪ [Plan experience flow] Pick up 15 to 30 minutes before the start time ↓ Arrive at the shooting location (tour start time) ↓ Shoot while watching the movement of the clouds and the stars ↓ Drop off at the hotel (arrive about 2 hours after the tour pick-up)
今回はじめて参加させていただきました。 たくさんの星の数に驚きました! まるで、宇宙の中に入り込んだようでした。 雲の流れや、他の車のライト等が入らないよう、素敵なスポットをいくつもまわっていただきました。 途中、偶然現れたヤシガニや蛍にも驚きました。 星座のお話しもたくさんしていただき、本当に良い体験になりました。 送迎付きで、何から何までお世話になりました。 また、あの星空を見に行きたいと思います。 その時はまたよろしくお願いいたします。
