Super good, I highly recommend everyone to take part in this trip. The snorkeling is super beautiful and I saw turtles twice. I was very lucky. The tour guide will help everyone take photos and record videos. I like it and will come again next time.

It comes with a pick-up and drop-off service within Naha city, which is very convenient. If you want to borrow a Go Pro camera, you need to signal the staff on the boat as soon as possible. The number is limited and it is on a first-come, first-served basis.

I think the scenery is beautiful and the water is clear now. It is easy to see fish as soon as you get into the water. The coaches took good care of us. Will often ask us if we are ok, and will help us take pictures.

I love Okinawa and this is a must do activity because we had so much fun. The staff were very nice and helpful. We had an amazing time in the island. Will definitely go back there and stay longer. First time to hold a sea cucumber and swim with the turtles. 😍😍😍

Very good experience. There are a lot of fish underwater. It depends on luck to see turtles. I didn't see any, but the fish were OK. People who usually get carsick must take medicine in advance, otherwise they will be half-healthy when they arrive at the place. They will be half-healthy after diving for a while, and they can't recover their health when they return to the boat. Don't think about the scene of the return trip. It's a lesson of tears.

It was my first time to go snorkeling with my kids. The staff was very friendly and took good care of my son. Although I couldn't find any turtles, it was my son's first time snorkeling and he was very happy. I want to go again and hope to see turtles next time.

The best choice for a day trip to Okinawa Island Hopping! If possible, book a high-speed boat ticket one or two weeks in advance, because the ferry is slower, and the high-speed boat can arrive earlier to the beach. The passengers on the high-speed boat and the ferry start snorkeling at the same time. I took the ferry and arrived at the port at 11:30, but I was in a hurry to eat curry lunch. I had to gather and put on equipment at 12:00 to set off. Unfortunately, there was not enough time for lunch in the schedule. It is recommended to eat something on the boat to fill your stomach. After putting on the equipment, we took a car to Tokashiku Beach, a quiet beach with fewer people going there. The coach will take pictures for us before entering the water. People who can't swim can hold the floating bar and follow the coach. It is stipulated that life jackets must be worn and cannot be taken off. I was lucky that day that in addition to seeing corals and tropical fish, I also saw a sea cucumber and a small turtle. The coach used 360 to help everyone take pictures in the water. After the activity, you can also download the photos for collection. However, I didn't rent a wetsuit, so I got sunburned after the activity. It was very painful. It is recommended to bring your own, or rent a wetsuit, especially in the hot summer. All in all, it was a great experience! recommend!
