Visit Lake Biwa's Shirahige Shrine from the lake surface with a SUP experience! Enjoy an activity at a power spot!

2018/04/02

Visit Lake Biwa Shirahige Shrine from the lake surface with a SUP experience! You can do activities at a power spot! This is a course where you cruise on a swaying SUP for 2 hours. I wrote about the charm of SUP with great enthusiasm last time (link), so I will skip it, but it seems that you can go through the large torii gate of Shirahige Shrine on a SUP, which is also nice. It's quite a distance, so swimming is quite a high hurdle lol.

A fascinating tour where you can enjoy diving and snorkeling around the beautiful islands of Okinawa!

2018/03/31

A fascinating tour where you can enjoy diving and snorkeling in the beautiful islands of Okinawa!! The wide blue sky and the sparkling azure sea. Okinawa is a place that never ceases to fascinate people. The Kerama Islands, a group of islands floating in the East China Sea further west of Naha in the southern part of Okinawa's main island, are known only to those in the know. Surrounded by an ocean so beautiful that it is called "the sea that the world loves," it is highly popular as a paradise-like spot where you can spend a peaceful time. If you go to the Kerama Islands, there is one thing you should definitely do. That is... "diving."

Lake Biwa cherry blossom viewing kayak experience tour! This is your last chance in 2018!

2018/03/30

A cherry blossom viewing kayak experience tour on Lake Biwa! This is your last chance in 2018! On the opposite bank (or diagonal bank, to be precise) of the campsite Makino Sunny Beach is Kaizu Osaki, one of the Eight Views of Lake Biwa, famous for its beautiful row of 600 Somei-Yoshino cherry trees. As it is a very popular cherry blossom viewing spot, the traffic jams are extremely bad around this time of year, not to mention before and after the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. You can view them from the lake, where there is no traffic jam.

Recommended for beginner divers! Experience diving at Izu Marine Park!!

2018/03/25

Although the word "diving" itself is well-known, it seems like a big hurdle to actually do it. This is because there are many factors of uncertainty, such as "Do I need a license?" and "Diving equipment seems expensive." But did you know that even beginners can actually experience it safely and easily? The plan introduced below is also recommended for those who want to "just try it out" before starting diving seriously, so be sure to check it out.

A canoeing experience overlooking Tokyo Skytree! A spectacular urban activity recommended for this spring and summer!

2018/03/17

Canoeing experience overlooking Tokyo Skytree! This is a recommended urban activity with a spectacular view this spring and summer! Canoeing in the great outdoors, such as at a campsite, is appealing, but what I would like to recommend this time is the "urban canoeing experience" in the center of Tokyo. It is often thought that the point of canoeing is the ease of access within Tokyo, but urban canoeing allows you to enjoy special scenery that you cannot experience in nature, so think of it as something different. That's when I found this plan. This canoeing experience plan is popular as a weekend leisure activity where you can canoe while looking up at Tokyo Skytree, a tourist spot in Tokyo, and as a tourist in Tokyo. It is an overwhelming experience to be able to feel the size of the Skytree from just above the water surface. I'm sure it will look great in photos on Instagram and other sites.

I'm very interested in trying the flyboard on Lake Biwa! It's an activity that's been talked about in TV commercials!

2018/03/16

I'm very interested in experiencing the Lake Biwa flyboard! It's an activity that's been talked about in TV commercials! To start with, it's called a "flyboard" or "aquaboard". And recently, there seems to be a variant with a board called a "hoverboard". The mechanism is that you fix your feet to something like a small snowboard and get propulsion from the force of water sprayed from a jet ski (marine jet) connected by a nozzle. It was apparently invented by a jet skier named Franky Zapata just for fun. It's very innovative, but I wonder how he came up with such an idea (lol). It's amazing.

Make your surfing debut at a surfing school in Shonan! I want to try surfing with my whole family and kids!

2018/03/15

Make your surfer debut at a surfing school in Shonan! Bring your kids and the whole family to try surfing! This time, I want to focus on surfing, the king of outdoor and marine sports. Commonly known as "surfing," it was a big boom for those of us in our mid-30s who were students, and the world was full of surfers (including land surfers). They were black, had long hair, read FINE magazine, and carried surfboards around town...lol. I'll be honest, I was one of those guys who pretended to be a super frivolous surfer.

Experience SUP on the Yasu River in Shiga Prefecture! Shiga Prefecture is an area perfect for water sports, with 1/5 of the prefecture's land area being water.

2018/03/05

SUP experience on the Yasu River in Shiga Prefecture! Shiga Prefecture is an area perfect for water sports, with 1/5 of the prefecture's land area covered by water! Do you know what "SUP" is? According to Wikipedia, "Stand Up Paddle Surfing. A type of marine water sport. Also known as SUP for short. Stand on a surfboard and slide down the slope formed by the waves or move by paddling on the water's surface." Simply put, it is "a sport where you ride on a big surfboard and paddle forward with a paddle." It's clearly becoming popular, and we'll explain why and share its appeal!

Can't wait until summer! A thorough investigation into rafting in Okutama that can be enjoyed from spring!

2018/03/03

I thought I'd look into rafting, the classic river leisure activity that hits its peak season in the spring (around April). After a quick google search, I found that the three most popular spots for rafting in the Kanto area are Okutama, Tokyo, Nagatoro, Saitama, and Minakami, Gunma! It's a field I've never touched before, or rather, I'm ashamed to say that this is my first experience in my 30s, so I'm starting with zero prior knowledge. I hope you'll read this from the perspective of a beginner like me ^ ^

What is the Ishigaki Island Mermaid Experience? It's a girls trip plan to a mystical island that is perfect for Instagram!

2018/02/27

I've read that mermaid suits are popular overseas, but are they really that popular? I did a quick search and found a ton of photos of cute girls posing on the beach, which are pretty cool. I guess the purpose is to take photos, right? Just by wearing that suit it would easily look good on Instagram. I'm sure there are women out there who want to be mermaids, just like I want to be Jack Sparrow. It's not hard to understand. There's a cosplay desire hidden in everyone's heart, apparently there are also flower crowns, starfish and other accessories. I'd like them to cover their breasts with seashells, if possible. I'd like to secretly take photos of such women.

Experience SUP (Stand Up Paddle Board) in Kabira Bay! Ishigaki Island's top choice!

2018/02/26

Experience SUP (Stand Up Paddle Board) in Kabira Bay! Ishigaki Island's first choice! Hello to everyone watching Activity Japan I want to jump into the crystal clear sea right now! Shishimaru appears while whistling loudly. I spend my days pursuing the charm of Ishigaki Island, which knows no bounds. I tried SUP (Stand Up Paddle Board) for the first time last year and became completely hooked, so I looked into whether there was anywhere I could do it on Ishigaki Island.

Choose from popular activities on Ishigaki Island! These are the activities you want to experience in 2018!

2018/02/25

Choose from popular activities on Ishigaki Island! Here are the activities you want to try in 2018! There are a lot of fun leisure experience plans. Snorkeling is a basic for me, but honestly, I don't understand why people wear mermaid suits. I wonder if it's a cosplay thing. Even if you're aiming to take Instagrammable photos, it takes a lot of effort. You can't move your lower body freely, so I think you'd drown if you weren't used to swimming. It's pretty funny to imagine yourself as a mermaid surrounded by beautiful coral reefs, tropical fish, and sea turtles. I'm laughing and drowning, but the name "Phantom Island" sounds great...

We looked into the prices and other information for Miyakojima's most popular activity, sea turtle snorkeling!

2018/02/23

My first choice for an activity I want to try on a trip to Miyakojima is a snorkeling tour, which is said to have a 99% chance of encountering sea turtles! Swimming with sea turtles in the incredibly clear, beautiful waters of a southern island is an absolutely amazing experience! In fact, it's a standard optional tour for famous travel agencies such as HIS, and it seems to be by far the most popular marine sport you can enjoy on a trip to Miyakojima. To begin with, I thought, "Do you have to join a tour to snorkel?" and "You can do it if you put on goggles and a snorkel at a swimming beach!" But after researching various sea turtle snorkeling plans, it seems that's not the case...
