5.00It has been a great experience! We enjoyed it a lot. The canoë, the paddle, the scuba diving: that was all absolutely wonderful. The only negative point is the price…very expensive. The lunch should definitely be included
Adventurous day

5.00We had a great day on Ishigaki. We got picked up by Taka in the morning, who turned out to be a really friendly and knowledge guide. He spoke English well. He took many photos of us during the whole day, so no need to bring your own camera. In the morning we went canoeing in the mangroves. We made several stops along the way to learn about the nature and take pictures. It was great. After the lunch break at the port, we headed to Osaki beach for snorkeling. The blue cave was not accessible, because the weather was windy. We took the coastal road towards Osaki beach, which was a memorable experience in itself with stunning views. Osaki beach had nice coral reefs, although they seemed to suffer a little bit from bleaching. Nevertheless we saw many colorful fish of various sizes and even a sea snake. We also found Nemo thanks to Taka who pointed us towards 'him'. Taka also dove to the bottom of the sea and helped us feel a sea cucumber. Taka took also many photos and videos of us from underwater. In total, we got 1 hour of canoeing and 1 hour of snorkeling, which made for an amazing experience.
Great experience - but no Blue Cave?

3.00The morning was amazing! I had an excellent guide for the SUP/kayaking tour and it was the highlight of the trip. The guide spoke English but gave the tour in Japanese as I was the only non-Japanese person there and can speak the language conversationally. However, after the lunch break, either I wasn’t informed or didn’t understand why we didn’t go snorkeling at the Blue Cave. Instead, we just swam around a reef on the outskirts of Ishigaki City. It was still a cool experience and we had a great snorkeling guide, but I was really looking forward to going to the Blue Cave, as I was supposed to go last summer but couldn’t. They said the event could be canceled based on weather, but aside from it being in the middle of the winter, it was still warm and sunny. Great experience otherwise!
