Prefeitura de Okinawa Caiaque

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 was an outstanding experience. Sao, Emma, and the entire team did an amazing job ensuring a smooth process, while demonstrating a high level of professionalism and kindness throughout.

I departed from Ishigaki Island this time and participated in a mangrove kayaking tour on Iriomote Island. I booked it through Klook after researching various travel agencies' reviews. The local travel agency they partnered with provided a very smooth overall experience 👍 The package I chose was the [Iriomote Island Mangrove Kayaking Experience], which includes: 📍#MangroveKayakingExperience 📍#OnsiteInstructorGuidance (Beginners are welcome) 📍#RiverTrekkingShoes+LifeVestEquipmentProvided 📍#TourPhotoDocumentation 🚣‍♀️This tour's itinerary: Upon arrival at "Uehara Port" on Iriomote Island, the travel agency will pick you up. About a 10-minute drive to the river → Equipment distribution + instruction. Actual paddling into the mangroves for about 20 minutes before returning (not tiring at all, very easy to get the hang of 🤣). The one-way experience time is not long, making it suitable for a half-day itinerary. There are simple restrooms on-site for changing clothes 👌 👕Recommended attire: Long sleeves (for sun protection + mosquito repellent) Shorts (will definitely get wet) Hat (it's really sunny) Remember to bring a change of clothes 🗣Language: English/Japanese are available, but communicating with gestures is also perfectly fine. 👉My 63-year-old dad completed it successfully too 🤣 P.S. You 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.

私の妻と私はこのアクティビティをとても楽しみました。英語があまり話せないにもかかわらず、ヨシさんが安全で非常に楽しい体験をさせてくれました。カヤックは手入れが行き届いていて快適です。川は穏やかで、簡単に漕ぐことができました。マングローブの森や洞窟の入り口を探索することができました。ペースもちょうど良く、終始とてもリラックスして穏やかな気持ちでした。折り返し地点では、簡単なティーブレイクのためにカヤックを上陸させました。ヨシさんはトビハゼやヤドカリを探すのを手伝ってくれました。ヨシさんが写真を撮ってくれて、旅行後に共有してくれたので、携帯電話を持っていく必要はありませんでした。ツアーの開始/終了地点にはトイレとシャワー設備もあります。私たちは真栄里ビーチ近くのホテルから送迎してもらいました。自然をいつもと違う方法で見てみたい、カヤックを試してみたい方には強くお勧めします！
