We are a family of four that utilize the Okinawa pass for golden week and it was 100% worth it. we were able to do four different experiences including Okinawa world snorkeling in the blue cave, the aquarium and the southeast botanical garden. my recommendation is to make your reservations in advance. Once you check the weather because the window does close quickly the day prior.

Hiro was an awesome tour guide! very funny and knowledgeable. He made sure to keep us safe and entertained the entire time in the jungle. He was kind enough provide food recommendations! The jungle was beautiful and a lot of wildlife to view. Please be careful while exploring. Nature is to be respected!

I thought I'd have to give up snorkeling because I left my entire swimsuit bag behind on the day of departure (I didn't want to buy it again, haha). I consulted with the staff and went anyway, even though it wasn't ideal to wear regular clothes, but our staff was so kind and helpful, and they took us to a great spot, so it was fun! The handsome captain, who is fluent in foreign languages and very kind, is the best! I'll come back next time!!!

It was a speechlessly awesome experience! Our guide was very easygoing and spoke great English. The price was very reasonable, but the memories are absolutely priceless. I highly recommend this to anyone who is still hesitant!

The entire trip went very smoothly! The signs were very clear, and the staff were all very friendly. They also told us how to catch the return boat/buffalo cart. Even with a language barrier, the buffalo cart tour allowed us to experience the local culture!

During the snorkeling course, they even took into account each individual's skill level! I received extra information about diving. It was an incredible experience, and I'm grateful for the exceptional service and the staff's friendliness. Thank you very much for the great experience! A big thank you goes to Ahleandro from Chile (I hope I spelled your name correctly).

If you need to park, it might be a little difficult, so prepare in advance. The staff provided excellent service and clear instructions. The ride was comfortable and not too hot, and the underwater scenery was amazing. The trip lasted about half an hour and was very smooth. It doesn't require much physical exertion, making it suitable for all ages.

The equipment was clean and having an English-speaking guide available was excellent! It was a great experience to see sea turtles, even from a distance, and to snorkel in the deep sea, which is usually difficult for families to access. On rainy, windy days with rough waves, the underwater visibility can be poor, making it hard to see fish or corals, which can be a bit disappointing. I recommend choosing a clear day during the good season if possible. Thank you very much, Tatchan!
Ishigaki at a glance
Quick facts about Ishigaki
General info
What to know before visiting Ishigaki
Quick overview of Ishigaki’s travel rhythm
Ishigaki is a laid-back island destination where water activities, outdoor & sports activities and historical sites drive most bookings. Demand peaks in July and falls to a low in December, giving the year a clear busy summer window and a quieter winter period.
Best times to visit and how prices behave
According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is July while demand is lowest in December. Prices are highest in September by Klook data and typically hit their lowest in December, so demand and price are not perfectly aligned: July is the busiest but September tends to be the priciest. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, aim for December when both demand and prices are at their low point; for a lively peak-season atmosphere choose July when activity levels are highest.
Tips for travellers from the United States
Most travellers from the United States book experiences about five days in advance on average, with some last-minute options still available a day out and the earliest bookings often made a few weeks ahead. If you plan to travel in the July peak, consider securing popular water-based activities a bit earlier; for winter trips you’ll often find more availability and lower prices when booking closer to your dates on Klook.
