Reviews
We even saw two turtles, and Nemo and other fish were incredibly clear. My five-year-old, who can't swim yet, was able to participate by lying on a boat with a clear bottom, allowing him to see underwater. Our family of four went, and since it was a small group with only two families, the explanations were thorough, and our satisfaction was high. Instructor Coco, in particular, led us very well and took great care of those who were afraid of the water. It was such a good time that I'd love to do it again. The photos and short videos of each family member were taken with great care, one by one, and the resolution is high quality. They even took pictures of my second child from under the boat, which made him very happy even though he couldn't snorkel. Afterward, they gave us turtle-shaped medals, which the kids have been wearing all day. This activity far exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend it!!!
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!!
Today, I participated in a snorkeling tour in Miyakojima. The ocean was incredibly clear and beautiful, and I saw many fish, including sea turtles and clownfish. I was deeply moved by the stunning underwater scenery, making it an unforgettable experience. Our instructor, Ken, was very kind and provided thorough support throughout the tour, which allowed me to relax and enjoy myself. He also took many beautiful photos, all of which became wonderful memories. It was an amazing experience that exceeded my expectations, truly a perfect 10 out of 10! I highly recommend this tour.
I was quite nervous about snorkeling for the first time, but our instructor, Yuri, was so kind and reassuring that I was able to relax and enjoy myself. The ocean was even clearer and more beautiful than I imagined, and I was thrilled to see many sea turtles and even swim alongside them at a close distance! They took so many wonderful photos for us, and we had such a pleasant chat. It truly made for the best memories of Miyakojima! Thank you so much! ✨🥹
Miyakojima Snorkeling Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Instructor Coco This was one of the most memorable experiences during my trip to Miyakojima! I booked a snorkeling course where you can see sea turtles and Nemo, and I was extremely satisfied because I actually got to see both. In particular, I saw the sea turtles much closer than I expected, and seeing them gracefully swim right next to me felt completely different from seeing them in pictures. I also saw several Nemos among the coral, and true to Miyakojima's reputation, the water was so clear that the underwater scenery itself was truly beautiful. With the sunlight filtering into the water and the coral, there was plenty to see just by snorkeling. And what I personally really loved was that they took surprisingly good photos! They captured a variety of shots, from solo turtle photos to me swimming with the turtles, and even photos with Nemo, so I didn't need my own underwater camera. Looking back after the trip, these photos are truly wonderful memories. I think this course is enjoyable enough for first-time snorkelers, and I highly recommend it if you want to see both sea turtles and Nemo in Miyakojima. It was a much more memorable experience than simply visiting tourist spots. Conclusion: If you come to Miyakojima, this is an activity worth trying at least once. I was so satisfied that I'd want to do it again if I come back! 👍
Although I participated alone this time, I was able to enjoy myself with peace of mind thanks to the very attentive service. I even spotted two sea turtles while diving! They swam with me for a while, and it was a continuous series of感動 (deeply moving experiences). Over 500 photos were taken, creating the best memories. Additionally, there was a pick-up service from the city, so I didn't have to worry about transportation and was very comfortable. I confidently recommend this shop to anyone considering diving in Miyakojima. I would love to use their services again!
An incredibly worthwhile experience! Instructor Coco is very nice and professional! Very patient throughout, made me feel very safe, and has top-notch photography skills. The seawater is very clear, and I was lucky to have great weather, the sunlight shining through was so beautiful. I saw a sea turtle eating, slowly swimming around, not afraid of people at all, and super cute and shy Nemos, so healing! If you want to experience sea turtle snorkeling in Miyako Island, choose this place with your eyes closed, the experience is fully loaded!
So lucky that we saw a lot of fish and a big turtle! Instructors Coco and Shiori are super helpful and responsible. highly recommend!
The ocean is so beautiful! You can see turtles up close! Our guide was incredibly kind! The water was a bit cold, so I recommend renting a wetsuit. The pickup service is a great convenience! I also recommend the paid video recording service! Flippers and basic snorkel masks are free! Prescription masks are available for a fee, but I brought my own contact lenses! Simple showers are available, and it was nice to be able to store our luggage in the guide's vehicle!
I went swimming with sea turtles in the waters of Miyakojima! 🐢 One of the best parts is that transportation is included, so you can easily join even if you don't have a rental car! It had been a while since I last snorkeled, so I was a bit nervous at first, but the guide was incredibly kind, which put me at ease. And what truly amazed me was how incredibly clear the ocean water was! Apparently, this level of transparency is possible because there are no mountains or rivers on the island. I was so impressed to learn that this clarity is due to a combination of unique conditions. I was also incredibly moved to see so many different fish up close. The sea turtles didn't swim away at all and stayed close by, allowing me to observe them thoroughly. It was an unforgettable experience!
