SUP & Snorkeling com Tartarugas Marinhas (Miyako)

This time, we participated in snorkeling to see sea turtles and SUP activities, which were a lot of fun and everyone had a great time. Although there was a language barrier, our guide Yumi was still very dedicated and tried her best to guide us with gestures, constantly checking on our well-being, and even took many photos. We were also very lucky; as soon as we got into the water, we saw cute sea turtles, coral reefs, and beautiful Nemo fish hiding in anemones. We look forward to coming back with our children next time.

Coach: Ryoma, a very friendly and experienced coach. Experience: The weather wasn't very good that day, but it's different in the sea. The sea creatures are as abundant as in an aquarium! Location: Snorkelling @ Shigira Beach SUP @ Ingya Marine Garden

I had such a great time! Our guides, Ryo and Kyoka, spoke excellent English and were very friendly. The snorkeling was fun, and the canoeing was especially exciting and memorable! They also took lots of beautiful photos for us, which I really appreciated. Overall, I’m very satisfied!

Yuuri was really fluent in English and kind enough to translate everything he was saying to me, even though I was the only foreigner! The whole process was smooth, and we were lucky enough to see a turtle as well. The photos turned out great too, thank you :)

Our experience was amazing, we could see many fishes and one big turtle. We spent a lot of time in the water enjoying that paradise. Our guide was Hayata, so friendly and he spoke English. He provided us with the equipment and was constantly asking us if we were okay. It was a safe experience, and we had so much fun. Luckily, it was a sunny day ☀️ He guided us to those parts where there was abundant sea life. He also took photos of us and shared them the day after 📸🤩 We 100% recommend this activity and our guide Hayata 🙌

It was really interesting. Thank you for making good memories. 👍🏻 I would love to do it again if I come back in May

This trip was a last-minute booking, but the entire journey was super fun and perfect! The SUP and snorkeling instructors were both amazing, and I'm so grateful for their care throughout the trip. Everyone can definitely join with peace of mind! Instructor: Soma Kajita is an excellent photographer! 👍

We joined the one-day trip that included SUP and snorkeling, and it was absolutely worth it! Our coach, Leon, was super friendly and always had a big smile on his face. He taught us some really useful SUP and snorkeling techniques, so even beginners could enjoy the whole experience with confidence. All the equipment we needed was provided, which made everything so easy and relaxing. Leon speaks English, so communication was easy. He even helped us take great photos — such a nice bonus! We only wish the company could upgrade their camera next time — that would make the experience even more perfect! 😂

The dive guide's English was excellent, and they were very attentive to foreign visitors. Seeing sea turtles and Nemo was fantastic! The photos of the fish and sea turtles were great, but there were too few photos of people, and they weren't very clear. I suggest focusing more on photographing the tourists, as beautiful sea turtles and fish can be found online. People are what make memories! Overall, the trip was still very enjoyable. Thanks to the dive guide. The SUP instructor was also very good. Going at sunset was perfect, and the experience was great, but the same issue arose with the photos. They were too artistic, mostly silhouettes and scenery, with no one's faces visible. I suggest focusing on taking good photos of people. It was a great experience, and we had a lot of fun!

My girlfriend and I signed up for this SUP and snorkeling tour because we really wanted to see Miyakojima's clear blue coral seas and diverse marine life. Although we couldn't reach the initially booked spot due to a vehicle issue, the company staff were incredibly kind and guided us, allowing us to safely join at the next location. Even though my English isn't fluent, I felt genuine warmth from their willingness to help me over the phone until the very end. During the experience, our guide, Kyoka, was fluent in English and provided detailed and fascinating explanations about the marine creatures and corals. She was particularly attentive to my girlfriend's and my physical condition and stamina in real-time, and she proactively informed us about potentially dangerous points like currents or changes in water depth. This made us, as first-time snorkelers, feel completely at ease and able to fully immerse ourselves in the experience. In the water, we saw various large and small corals and colorful fish, including clownfish, famously known as 'Nemo,' and tiger fish, all just a few centimeters away. The underwater world that unfolded before our eyes was breathtakingly beautiful and an incredibly moving moment that will remain in our memories forever. The scene of sunlight sparkling on the water's surface and settling on the corals, as viewed from underwater, is still vivid in my mind. The time we spent together felt too short, yet it was so precious. If we visit Miyakojima again, we definitely want to see the ocean with the same company and Kyoka again. Above all, we extend our heartfelt gratitude to Kyoka for her continuous care, ensuring we enjoyed the underwater experience to the fullest, safely, and created wonderful memories. We also thank the other guide who thoughtfully took many beautiful photos from various angles. This experience was the most brilliant moment of our trip, and thanks to both of them, it became an even more special memory.
