The “Miracle Island” of Barasu Barasu Island is a tiny island formed by the accumulation of white coral sand (barasu). Because it only appears during low tide, it is also known as the “Miracle Island.” It has been used as a filming location for music videos and is well-known as a trendy spot.

Review for: Barasu Island Boat Snorkeling

It was my first time on Iriomote Island, and I was moved by the power of nature! Matsuko's guide was very easy to understand, and I was able to enjoy the tour with peace of mind. I was surprised at how clear the water was! I'd like to come back on a sunny day😊 Thank you so much for the wonderful memories!

This is my first trip to Ishigaki. There are many tours in Ishisaki, but I was really glad to choose this tour. All the guides are so kind and nice. Especially the yume ゆめ team, they made my trip so satisfying. Thank you for making such a great memory in my life. I would like to express my deepest gratitude to yume ゆめ. And you look like a pretty famous Korean female celebrity. I plan to visit Ishigaki again someday. Bye

Among all the companies I've used, this one was top-notch. I asked to see sea turtles, and they found them for me beautifully. Thank you very much!

We participated in a snorkeling tour on Iriomote Island. Our guide, Shogo, took us by boat to a nearby snorkeling spot and enthusiastically took photos for everyone throughout the activity. After the tour, the shop provided showers and changing rooms.

Review for: Barasu Island Boat Snorkeling

This trip was so much fun, and our tour guide, Kaji, was incredibly thoughtful. He took us to so many beautiful coral reefs and helped us take tons of pictures. We even went to Barasu Island. The weather in Ishigaki was perfect, and the photos we took looked like something out of a dream.

Review for: Barasu Island Boat Snorkeling

This tour is super safe where you’ll wear wetsuit and life jacket, which makes it impossible to drown, there’s also a huge bouy for you to hold on when you’re on the sea. It is also very beginner friendly where the guide explains how the use the snorkeling equipment thoroughly, kudos to the guide Taro👍 water is super clear!

Review for: Barasu Island Boat Snorkeling

I had such a wonderful snorkeling experience, and a big part of that was thanks to our guide, Seita-san. What impressed me most was how genuinely he cared about every single person in our group. We had families with children, couples, and solo travelers from different countries, but Seita-san made sure no one was ever left out. He paid attention to thr group and each individual, adjusting the way he helped depending on what we needed. He was especially wonderful with the children and those who seemed to be snorkeling for the first time. He was patient, attentive, and made everyone feel safe and comfortable in the water. He was also very humble about his English, but he communicated really well and his pronounciation was one of the best I've heard. But, I was especially touched by how much effort he put into taking great photos for everyone. You can really feel that Seita-san genuinely cares about the people he guides. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! Highly recommended.

I worked with an extremely friendly guide. He spoke English well, so there was no problem communicating. He was a kind and bright person. However, I didn't see a turtle. I would like to use that company's tour again next time. thank you

Review for: Barasu Island Boat Snorkeling

The snorkeling time was a bit short, and not enough attention was paid to the group members who are not good swimmers. I was still helping to take care of them.
