Okinawa Prefecture Kajakozás

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.

This time, I departed from Ishigaki Island and participated in a mangrove kayaking tour on Iriomote Island. After researching various travel agencies, I booked it through Klook, and it was operated by a local travel agency. The overall experience was quite smooth! 👍 The package I chose was the [Iriomote Island Mangrove Kayaking Experience], which includes: 📍 #MangroveKayakingExperience 📍 #OnsiteInstructorGuidance (Beginners are welcome!) 📍 #RiverTrekkingShoes + LifeVestProvided 📍 #TourPhotoDocumentation 🚣‍♀️ Tour Itinerary: Upon arrival at Uehara Port on Iriomote Island, the travel agency will provide transportation. It's about a 10-minute drive to the river → Equipment distribution + Instruction. We kayaked into the mangroves for about 20 minutes before turning back (it wasn't tiring at all and very easy to pick up 🤣). The single-trip experience isn't long, making it perfect for a half-day itinerary. There's a simple restroom on-site where you can change clothes. 👌 👕 Recommended Attire: Long-sleeved shirt (for sun and mosquito protection) Shorts (they will definitely get wet) Hat (it gets very sunny) Remember to bring a change of clothes. 🗣 Language: English/Japanese is available, but communicating through gestures is perfectly fine. 👉 My 63-year-old dad completed it successfully! 🤣 P.S. You'll need to purchase your Iriomote Island ferry tickets separately (round-trip tickets are not included). After booking your tour, remember to add the travel agency on Line or WhatsApp to stay in touch!

The mangrove forest kayaking and snorkeling were absolutely fantastic. Even though the weather wasn't great, Makoto-san's excellent guidance made it an unforgettable experience.

Feleségemmel nagyon élveztük ezt a tevékenységet. Yoshi úr vezetett minket, aki korlátozott angoltudása ellenére is gondoskodott arról, hogy biztonságos és nagyon élvezetes élményben legyen részünk. A kajak jól karbantartott és kényelmes. A folyó nyugodt volt és könnyen navigálható. Sikerült felfedeznünk a mangrove erdőt és a barlangnyílásokat. A tempó jó volt, és végig nagyon nyugodtnak és békésnek éreztük magunkat. A fordulópontnál partra szálltunk a kajakkal egy egyszerű teázásra. Yoshi úr segített nekünk sárjárókat és remeterákokat keresni. Nem kellett magunkkal vinnünk a mobiltelefonjainkat, mivel Yoshi úr segített fényképeket készíteni, amelyeket megosztott velünk az utazás után. A túra induló/végpontján WC és mosdó is található. Felvettek és visszavittek minket a Maesoto Beach melletti szállodánkból. Nagyon ajánlott, ha más módon szeretné látni a természetet, és ki szeretné próbálni a kajakozást!
