As the name suggests, the water inside the cave is clear blue, and if the conditions are met, it shines even bluer reflecting the blue sky and the sun.

You can go ashore to explore the inside of the cave and observe the natural products of Ishigaki such as limestone caves.

After exploring the cave, it is time for snorkeling.

Swim in the trench where many beautiful fishes and corals are waiting for you.

You will be amazed at the clarity of the ocean!

This snorkeling tour was everything described. Even though we were limited to nearby beaches instead of the caves because of the weather, we still got to see beautiful reefs and plenty of wildlife. Our guide, Diego, made everything seamless and safe. He also took some great photos/videos for memories. It’s great for beginners — the price is fair, and it’s not too long, so you still have the rest of your day to do other things.

We had an amazing time with our instructor Makoto! From the start, he made us feel relaxed and confident. He explained everything clearly, was very attentive, and made sure we enjoyed every moment in the water. His friendly attitude and passion for what he does really made the experience special.

It was a wonderful trip. As a solo traveller and first time snorkelling player, the tour guide gave detailed instructions and I was able to pick up quickly and enjoy myself in the tour. The tour guide is nice and talkative. She not only introduces various tourist spots on the island while driving us to the spot, but she also gave us recommendations on restaurants in the town.

I went to Osaki Beach today and was on a tour led by Akari. The beach and coral reef was beautiful and I got to see lots of fish and a turtle! Her English speaking skills were also excellent. I would highly recommend to anyone.
In the to do list absolutely

We went to Osaki beach as an alternative to the blue cave because of the marine conditions. It was a beautiful alternative. There is a great coral reef very beautiful! We even saw a turtle
