Miyako District

Ήταν μια υπέροχη εμπειρία! Ο οδηγός μας, ο Mashi, ήταν πολύ ενθουσιώδης, έβγαλε φανταστικές φωτογραφίες και μας πήγε σε σημεία με θαλάσσιες χελώνες, σημεία με ψάρια-κλόουν, κοράλλια και κοπάδια ψαριών, κάτι που ήταν υπέροχο👍 Ειδικά το ότι είδαμε μια χελώνα μόλις μπήκαμε στο νερό και τρεις ταυτόχρονα στο τέλος 😍 Το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα! Μπορούσαμε να επικοινωνούμε στα αγγλικά και μιλούσε και λίγα κορεάτικα, οπότε το απολαύσαμε άνετα. Επίσης, έλεγχε συχνά την κατάστασή μας, οπότε ακόμα κι αν δεν ξέρετε ιαπωνικά, μπορείτε να το απολαύσετε πλήρως! Μετά την εμπειρία, μας έστειλε αμέσως τις φωτογραφίες μέσω AirDrop, κάτι που ήταν πολύ ωραίο. Έβγαλε τόσες πολλές συνεχόμενες φωτογραφίες, οπότε είχαμε πολλές καλές να διαλέξουμε χαχα. Ανησυχούσα μήπως κρυώσω, αλλά δεν κρύωνα καθόλου, ήταν τέλεια. Θα ξαναέρθω στη Miyakojima για snorkeling! Αξίζει τον κόπο και μόνο γι' αυτό.

Snorkeling in Miyakojima in winter! And I even met such a pretty and cute turtle ^-^ I was worried about the weather, so I kept hesitating, but I made a last-minute reservation the day before. Thanks to the kind guidance and care, I had a very enjoyable time with my children! They also took really pretty pictures from time to time, so I think it will be a very memorable experience! Thank you ^-^ Best of luck with your business!!

Ο Γιούρι ήταν ο οδηγός μας, και ειλικρινά, έκανε όλη την εμπειρία υπέροχη! Εξαιρετικά φιλικός από την αρχή, και η ενέργειά του ήταν τόσο ζεστή και καθησυχαστική, ειδικά για αρχάριους σαν εμάς. Νιώθαμε απόλυτα ασφαλείς όλη την ώρα. Ήμασταν σε μια μικρή ομάδα, κάτι που μας άρεσε πολύ, έκανε τα πάντα να φαίνονται πιο προσωπικά. Αυτό που πραγματικά ξεχώρισε ήταν πόσο σκληρά δούλεψε για να μας βγάλει υπέροχες φωτογραφίες. Βουτούσε αρκετά μέτρα κάτω, κρατούσε τη θέση του και έφτιαχνε μεγάλους δακτυλίους από φυσαλίδες απλά για να πλαισιώσει τη λήψη. Το βάθος του νερού ήταν επίσης τέλειο, αρκετά ρηχό ώστε να μπορούμε να αιωρούμαστε ακριβώς πάνω από τα κοράλλια και να παρακολουθούμε όλα τα ψάρια να κάνουν τη δουλειά τους χωρίς καμία προσπάθεια. Υπήρχαν και άλλοι άνθρωποι που κολυμπούσαν τριγύρω, αλλά ο Γιούρι μας διευκόλυνε να τον εντοπίσουμε και να ανασυνταχθούμε όποτε χρειαζόταν. Είμαστε τόσο ευχαριστημένοι με την εμπειρία!

We made a reservation for four people and went. It seemed like about 6 people were grouped together, and 4 groups were on the boat at the same time. Each group had an instructor assigned, and for those who couldn't swim, they were given a tube attached to a rope and pulled from start to finish :) There were a total of three spots, and the first one was the best. We started at 11:30 AM and returned around 2:30 PM.

Pros: Loved our tour of the Pumpkin Cave. Jumping off the pumpkin into the water fun! Kayaking was nice. Cons: We could not take our camera and had to rely on the photos they took for us. Unfortunately their pictures aren't super great, some turned out ok, but most were grainy. It was crowded. Group after group went into the pumpkin cave.

We participated in the snorkeling to see sea turtles and SUP activities this time, and it was a lot of fun; everyone had a great time. Although there was a language barrier, our guide Yumi was still very dedicated and tried her best to instruct us with gestures, constantly checking on us. She also took many photos. We were very lucky to see cute sea turtles as soon as we got into the water, as well as coral reefs and beautiful Nemo fish hiding in the anemones. We look forward to coming back with our children next time.

Our guide, Hanna, was very professional, friendly, and welcoming. My wife and I had a wonderful and safe snorkeling experience. Seeing sea turtles and clownfish for the first time was so exciting!

Highly recommend Instructor Yusho! We had an unforgettable day today! Although we saw super cute clownfish in the morning, we didn't see any sea turtles. We didn't want to push it, thinking the instructor might be too tired, but to our surprise, after taking all the other guests out at 5 PM, Yusho-san was still willing to specially take us into the sea to look for sea turtles! The moment we saw the sea turtles, we were incredibly happy, and the photos the instructor took are unbelievably beautiful 😭😭 (seriously!). The instructor is professional, thoughtful, and dedicated. We will definitely look for him again next time we come to Miyakojima! Friends from Taiwan, you can't go wrong with Instructor Yusho! Yusho-san, thank you for the best experience! The clownfish in the morning were cute, but what touched us most was your hospitality. Even though you must have been tired after guiding so many guests until 5 PM, you still went out of your way to take us to the sea to look for sea turtles. Thanks to you, we were able to see the sea turtles we had longed for, and you took so many amazing photos for us; we are truly happy 😭😭. If you're coming to Miyakojima, I wholeheartedly recommend Yusho-san! We will definitely come back to see you again! Highly recommend Instructor Yusho! We had an unforgettable day. Although we saw cute clownfish in the morning, we missed the turtles. We didn't want to push it because we knew Yusho had been busy all day, but he incredibly offered to take us out again at 5 PM just to find them! Seeing the turtles was a dream come true, and the photos he took are absolutely stunning😭😭. Yusho is professional, dedicated, and so kind. If you’re visiting Miyakojima, he is the best! Can’t wait to come back!

We recently participated in the half-day sea turtle snorkeling and SUP activity booked through Klook, and the overall experience was truly fantastic! Our guide, Jam, was incredibly patient and friendly. From the initial briefing to the activity itself, he took great care of everyone, making us feel very comfortable. Especially when we were out on the water, Jam constantly monitored our well-being and prioritized safety, which allowed even first-timers to participate with confidence. Although it was a bit windy and the sea conditions were slightly challenging that day, the entire trip was still a lot of fun, and both SUP and snorkeling were very enjoyable. The best part was that we actually saw sea turtles in the end! Being able to see sea turtles up close in such beautiful waters was truly moving and became one of the most unforgettable memories of this trip. I highly recommend this activity to anyone visiting Miyakojima, and I'm very grateful to Jam for his care throughout, which helped us create such wonderful memories!
