1 Day / Ishigaki Island: Phantom Island (Hamajima) Landing & Snorkeling & Kabira Bay SUP/Canoe (Okinawa)

Booked for a full day, mangrove SUP/canoe in the morning, and Blue Cave snorkeling in the afternoon! The meeting point was very easy to find, and the pre-activity precautions were noted very clearly. The mangrove forest in the morning had extremely high levels of negative oxygen ions! Very chill! You can eat delicious food near the ferry terminal at noon and take a short break before continuing in the afternoon. The Blue Cave snorkeling in the afternoon was a fantastic experience. The instructor, Aoi, was very patient and professional. Two fellow travelers who couldn't swim were also very well taken care of. The sea in Ishigaki Island is very clear, and you can see huge coral reefs and beautiful marine life. Aoi also took a lot of photos and videos for everyone. I highly recommend everyone to come and experience snorkeling!!

Snorkeling at Coral Island was a first for me, and it's an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend it if you're not too afraid of the ocean. There was even a 7-year-old on our boat who did great, so it's a good memory for kids too. Also, our team leader, Akari, took extra care of those who had trouble swimming, showed us sea creatures up close, and was just so enthusiastic throughout the tour – I was really impressed. If I come to Ishigaki again, I'd specifically request her. My husband and I were exhausted from traveling right after our wedding, but we had so much fun. Thanks to the Adventure PiPi team!

It was a wonderful experience! The group was easily found in front of the port terminal. The snorkeling spot was beautiful, with many coral reefs and tropical fish. The phantom island, which has crystal clear water and white sand, is worth visiting. In the afternoon, we tried SUP in the mangrove forest. We especially thank our guides Diego and Shota. They were very friendly and took a lot of pictures for us.

Yuki is an outstanding snorkeling guide! He speaks fluent English and is humorous, making the experience fun and engaging. Due to weather condition, we did not go to phantom island, but went to Blue Cave instead, fun experience, lots if fish and coral! Highly recommend this one day tour, it will make your journal very special.

I signed up for a full-day tour, which was actually a combination of two tours, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. This was actually quite nice, as they take you back to the hotel after the morning activity, so you can freshen up and have lunch before meeting again for the afternoon tour. Yuki took us snorkeling in the morning, and she was very friendly and even helped us take beautiful photos on Phantom Island! Unfortunately, we didn't see any sea turtles while snorkeling. In the afternoon, Akari took us canoeing. This tour at Kabira Bay was very sunny, so be sure to take extra precautions with sunscreen. Overall, I was satisfied with the tour, and the guides were all very nice!

For some unknown reason, our trip to Little Bin Island was canceled today. It might have been due to the full moon coinciding with a king tide, which was initially very disappointing. In the morning, the staff took us to a river about a ten-minute drive away, where we enjoyed kayaking, which was quite relaxing. In the afternoon, I was particularly impressed by Makoto from Aventure Pipi. She led our group of nine on a snorkeling trip, and four of us were not strong swimmers. She single-handedly used a float to pull them along the entire time so they could see the coral, and she also remembered to take photos and videos for us and others, while reminding us to be careful. I truly admire her stamina and professionalism. She deserves a hundred thumbs-up! Coach: Makoto

This day was really fun and relaxing ! If you’re looking for something chill but you also want to enjoy Snorkeling I recommend. If it’s your first time snorkeling don’t worry cuz the guides will really take care of you and u will be safe! Our guide Akari was the best ! She speaks English and gives you information about Phantom Island and Ishigaki. She also took lots of pictures for us so we have plenty of memories! Thank you Akari and the team!

I spent the whole day with Akari-sensei today. We canoed in Kabira Bay in the morning, which was perfect for the weather, and snorkeled at Phantom Island in the afternoon. Her English is excellent, she's a great comedian, and she took amazing photos and videos! I was especially grateful that she found my wallet, which I had left on the boat ㅠㅠ. All the instructors were really friendly, not just Akari-sensei! I highly recommend it!!

It was the first time we went to Ishigaki. Chloe and Ken had taken good care of us to create a memorable experience for us. Even though we couldn't go to 幻の島 due to the weather, we could still see a variety of marine life. In the SUP session, we had plenty of time to explore Kabira Bay. The coaches were well-trained and kept an eye on every participant.

Fantasic day with Makoto and Meri, they are fun, energetic and kind with amazing swimming skills! even with typhoon approaching they took us to an alternative spots which was calm, with tons of fish and so lucky we got to see a sea turtle. The ladies took so much nice picture for us and explained a lot information about the sea condition. although I couldn’t swim I feel safe and well looked after. they were also very patient with my 8 year old mischief! the drive was also safe and with comforatable seats. thank you girls!!! 教練：amazing coaches! thank you!
