単身で参加させていただきました。フィールドへの移動中も含めて、気さくな職員さんに生き物の解説や雑談をしていただき、あっという間の2時間でした。ヤシガニはもちろん、セミの羽化やサソリモドキといったなかなかお目にかかれない生態を生で観察でき、大変満足です。これは運次第でしかありませんが、生憎の曇天で星空が見られなかったのだけは唯一の心残りです。いつかリベンジしたいですね。

Enjoy the dynamic location of the island, sky, sea, and mountains. The illuminations of nature that change over time are a fantastic sight that will take your breath away. Slowly, it gets dark, and when you look up at the sky while being surrounded by the sound and scent of the waves, you will see a sky full of stars. A moment with a shooting star...and the sound of waves and the chirping of red-winged birds gently echoing on the quiet beach. Depending on the time of year, marine plankton called ``noctiluca'' can be seen subtly glowing in the sea.

Yuta was an awesome guide! He spoke exceptional English (which was an unexpected bonus!!), very patient and was knowledgeable about Ishigaki. He was funny and great with my 11 year old nephew. Yuta took us to multiple spots on the island and shared info on the natural habitats. They even provided an underwater camera and an SD card to take home. We thought this was a simple snorkeling tour but we experienced much more than expected! I suggest this company for anyone looking to hit multiple spots in one day and learn about Ishigaki.

シーズン初開催日に参加させていただきました。そのためホタルの乱舞は見れなかったのですが(参加前に“乱舞は難しそう”と共有いただいてました)、宝探しのように、ツアー参加者の方とホタルをみつけあいっこしたのが楽しかったです(笑)。リュウキュウオオコウモリの姿をみれましたし、テツさんがフクロウの鳴き声や八重山特有の植物の紹介をしてくださったりして、総じて楽しいツアー時間を過ごすことができました。1歳の娘と3歳の息子を連れての参加でドキドキでしたが、テツさんもツアー参加者の方も優しくしてくださって嬉しかったです。次は乱舞してる時期に伺います!素敵な時間をありがとうございました。

You will then enter a river lined with mangroves where it gets gradually darker, and you may even see birds that were absent during the day returning to sleep. As you paddle across the ocean, you will see the stars appear one by one in the clear sky, and before you know it, the sky is full of stars. You will be amazed at the number of stars, which seem to be scattered like grains of sand. The Milky Way lies overhead, and you will be given a commentary on the starry sky.

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. (If you are using a shuttle service, we will pick you up around 17:00). At the shop, you will check in, use the restroom, change clothes, etc. (15 minutes) ② 17:50 ~ Move to the site where the tour will be held. (10 minutes) ③18:00~ Kayak lecture (tour explanation), photography (15 minutes) ④18:15~ Kayak tour starts (you can see the starry sky in the second half of the tour) (80 minutes) ⑤19:25~ Starry sky tour Explanation of the starry sky using a laser pointer (10 minutes) ⑥19:35~ Firefly tour (March to May only) We will move to a point where you can see fireflies and hold a firefly tour. (20 minutes) ⑦19:55~ If you are using a rental car, you will disband on the spot, and if you are using a shuttle, we will send you off!
前日の予約でしたが、連絡をまめに入れてくださり、安心して参加できました。 当日は月もなく空はクリアで波もほぼなかったので、水平線に沈む夕日、星空、海ほたるに夜光虫まで見ることができました。湾のことを知り尽くしているガイドさんだけに、珍しい海ほたるが見れたのだと思います!送迎から現地に着くまでの待ち時間が結構長く、少し不安もよがりましたが、星座の説明や一眼レフでの撮影などもして頂き、とても満足度の高いツアーでした。また機会がありましたら、よろしくお願いします!

A night tour where you can enjoy the starry sky and creatures unique to Ishigaki Island is a must-try activity on Ishigaki Island at night.
石垣島の星空を満喫したいとの家族の希望でこのツアーに参加しました。 その日はあいにくの曇り空だったので、残念ながら満点の星空とはいかず、雲の隙間からの鑑賞になってしまったのですが マングローブ、ガジュマルの木や、ここでしか見られない珍しい生き物がいて、ガイドさんがそれについて丁寧に解説してくれて、石垣島の夜の大自然を満喫できました。なかでも3月に見られるホタルには驚きました。全然本州のそれとは光り方も形も違うんです。 夜の世界を懐中電灯を片手に探索するツアーはまるで子供のころに戻ったみたいでワクワクしました。 最初は乗り気じゃなかった(^^;小学生の娘もどんどんテンション上がっていきました。 ガイドさん、ありがとうございました!次こそ星空を満喫します。その際はよろしくお願いします。

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!

A tour where you can enjoy the best starry sky in Japan and be surrounded by firefly lights 360 degrees around! A beautiful world of light created by the Yaeyama Hime fireflies and a starry sky spreading across the night sky! Come and see the seasonal natural illumination show! The main thing you can observe is the Yaeyama Hime firefly. The way they blink is different from the fireflies seen in Honshu. Fireflies actually light up to mate. When they fly off all at once as if they had arranged it, they are surrounded by fireflies and are enveloped in their lights. The viewing spot is in the mountains, a 20-minute drive from the city. This is a spot that both serious photographers and first-time firefly viewers can enjoy. ◆Firefly peak guideline Early March - 10-20% Mid-March to early April - 30-70% Mid-April to early May - 70-100% After mid-May - Gradually decreasing. After watching the fireflies, if the weather is good, make a little detour before heading home. Come see the starry sky in Yaeyama, one of Japan's leading stargazing spots!
