Miyako District Snorkling

After failing to find the turtles and Nemo on our own, we quickly searched and booked this tour. It was the top wish for this trip, as my child really wanted to see sea turtles and Nemo. The guide spoke English, so communication was easy while snorkeling. Since both I and my child are very timid, I was worried from the start, but I appreciated that safety was their top priority. We were grouped with a Japanese family and a solo male traveler, and our companions were very kind and great. And finally, we saw Nemo and sea turtles! We got super lucky 😍 We created wonderful memories as a family of three, and we are so grateful to our leader, Ken, for taking such good care of us! Thank you so much Ken! 😄😄

En familie på tre, inkludert et 7 år gammelt barn, bestilte turen. Vi reiste individuelt til møtestedet, og guiden vår, Ten-san, ringte oss rundt ankomsttidspunktet for å gi veibeskrivelse, slik at vi enkelt fant frem. Turen var med et barn som ikke var en erfaren svømmer, og vi var bekymret da det plutselig ble stormfullt med høye bølger på turdagen. Men Ten-san forklarte alt i detalj, fra utstyrsbruk til sikkerhetsregler, på engelsk og litt koreansk, noe som var veldig betryggende. Vi møtte tre skilpadder ved skilpadde-punktet og tok bilder. Til tross for stormen og bølgene tok han fantastiske bilder fra flotte vinkler. Vi kunne dessverre ikke dra til Nemo-punktet fordi barnet ble sjøsykt og ville tilbake... Men han delte vakre bilder med oss i stedet! Ten-san ledet oss trygt ut til utgangspunktet. Vi var takknemlige for den vennlige veiledningen, selv om vi måtte gå en ganske lang vei frem og tilbake på grunn av det andre teamet som var med. Etter turen var det veldig bra at bildene ble sendt direkte via AirDrop. Etter servicen var perfekt, med anbefalinger for restauranter og turistattraksjoner sendt via KakaoTalk. Været var skuffende, men takket være det ble det en uforglemmelig tur! Anbefales på det sterkeste. En stor takk igjen til Ten-san for all innsatsen!

Denne turen er veldig bra. Turlederen vår, Nazar, ga detaljerte forklaringer og var svært oppmerksom på hver eneste detalj gjennom hele turen. Anbefales på det sterkeste! Anbefaler denne aktiviteten på det varmeste, bildene ble også veldig klare, og instruktøren var veldig hyggelig og omtenksom.

Jeg meldte meg på en skilpaddesnorkling- og kanotur! Momo var ansvarlig for skilpaddesnorklingen, og Julia for kanoturen! Begge var vennlige og fantastiske kvinner, og det var en fantastisk opplevelse!! 💃✨ Jeg hadde problemer med parkeringen da jeg ikke hadde en 1000-yen-seddel, men de var så snille å oppbevare bagasjen min! De hadde også en hjertestarter klar for snorklingen, og for de som var usikre på å svømme, kunne man bli dratt med en rød flytevest, noe som var betryggende ◎ De sjekket helsen vår og tok bilder ved hvert punkt, så det var perfekt for å skape minner 📷 Først vante vi oss til det grunne vannet før vi beveget oss ut på dypere vann. De sa at det ikke alltid er skilpadder der selv om det er sol, men denne gangen var det sol, og jeg var superheldig som fikk svømme med skilpadder ✌️ Til slutt hadde de forberedt masse vann, noe som var veldig hjelpsomt siden jeg var full av sjøvann! Deretter hadde vi lunsjpause før vi samlet oss for kano og SUP. Et par fra Taiwan var med, og siden Julia, som snakker fire språk, var guiden deres, var kommunikasjonen veldig smidig 😆 De forklarte hvordan man padler kano og SUP på en lettfattelig måte, og alle koste seg ◎ De tok også videoer her, og Julia, som var full av energi og delte interessante fakta om steinene, var fantastisk 🤩 Det var Julias siste arbeidsdag, så jeg var heldig som fikk møte henne!!! Alt i alt var jeg veldig glad for at jeg meldte meg på denne turen!! Tusen takk for mange fantastiske minner!!!!!! (*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)

Overall, it was great. Most of the equipment is available for free rental, so you can come empty-handed and just enjoy. The instructor was kind and worked hard to take beautiful photos. The safety briefing before departure was also thorough. We were lucky this time with great weather, and we spotted four sea turtles while snorkeling. We were able to swim with them, and we are extremely satisfied. It was also very helpful that the child who couldn't snorkel was able to ride along on a pre-prepared floatie and join the departure. One area for improvement: participants would feel much more at ease if the skills of each member were sufficiently checked during practice before heading out to deep areas (deeper than one's height). Even with a life jacket on, going straight into deep water can be a bit scary for beginners. Thank you for a wonderful day tour, instructors Takuro and Soma!

Snorkeling was amazing; we got to see sea turtles up close! The limestone cave was a mystical place. We were very satisfied being able to enjoy all the main activities at once. All the staff members were bright and kind! Thank you to the cheerful young women and the handsome young men!

Highly recommend Instructor Yusho! We had an unforgettable day today! Although we saw super cute clownfish in the morning, we didn't see any sea turtles. We didn't want to push it, thinking the instructor might be too tired, but to our surprise, after taking all the other guests out at 5 PM, Yusho-san was still willing to specially take us into the sea to look for sea turtles! The moment we saw the sea turtles, we were incredibly happy, and the photos the instructor took are unbelievably beautiful 😭😭 (seriously!). The instructor is professional, thoughtful, and dedicated. We will definitely look for him again next time we come to Miyakojima! Friends from Taiwan, you can't go wrong with Instructor Yusho! Yusho-san, thank you for the best experience! The clownfish in the morning were cute, but what touched us most was your hospitality. Even though you must have been tired after guiding so many guests until 5 PM, you still went out of your way to take us to the sea to look for sea turtles. Thanks to you, we were able to see the sea turtles we had longed for, and you took so many amazing photos for us; we are truly happy 😭😭. If you're coming to Miyakojima, I wholeheartedly recommend Yusho-san! We will definitely come back to see you again! Highly recommend Instructor Yusho! We had an unforgettable day. Although we saw cute clownfish in the morning, we missed the turtles. We didn't want to push it because we knew Yusho had been busy all day, but he incredibly offered to take us out again at 5 PM just to find them! Seeing the turtles was a dream come true, and the photos he took are absolutely stunning😭😭. Yusho is professional, dedicated, and so kind. If you’re visiting Miyakojima, he is the best! Can’t wait to come back!

Our family had an amazing snorkeling experience! The staff were very friendly, kind, and helpful throughout the tour. We were especially lucky to see a sea turtle up close, which made the experience unforgettable. 🐢 Highly recommended for anyone visiting Miyakojima
