Okinawa Prefecture Paddleboarding

Dnešné počasie nebolo dobré, ale náš sprievodca Buzz sa snažil zo všetkých síl naučiť nás, ako pádlovať na kanoe a poskytnúť nám vedomosti o mangrovoch. Scenéria bola nádherná, výlet určite stál za to. Celkovo sme si zážitok veľmi užili😃

This was a fantastic experience on Ishigaki Island. The location is very close to the city center, making transportation extremely convenient and saving a lot of travel time. While it might not be the most budget-friendly option, the overall service definitely makes up for it. Originally, I planned to try SUP, but because I had too many belongings, I decided last minute to switch to kayaking. It was my first time kayaking, and I was a bit worried, but it turned out to be very stable, and even beginners can easily handle it. I especially want to commend our instructor, Sota. He was incredibly enthusiastic and talkative, patiently and warmly assisting participants throughout the entire experience, which made everyone feel very comfortable. Most importantly, his English communication was perfectly fine, making it very friendly for foreign tourists, so there's no need to worry about communication issues. Paddling through the mangroves felt very peaceful and relaxing, and Sota even proactively helped take photos, capturing this unique experience.

It was even more beautiful than I imagined! The sunset was absolutely stunning, and I think it will be an unforgettable memory. Our guide (MoMo) was also incredibly kind, which made the whole experience enjoyable! I traveled alone on foot, and everything went smoothly. There were also many couples, so I think this experience would be a great fit for anyone, regardless of how they're traveling. I'll definitely come back again! Thank you!

It was a fantastic experience! The instructor guided my child the entire time, and we saw sea turtles, clownfish, starfish, coral reefs, and countless tropical fish. The Blue Grotto was absolutely stunning. I highly recommend choosing 3 Piece; they are a professional and friendly team.

I had a fantastic time! Coach Mayu's detailed explanations made for a safe yet incredibly fun stand-up paddleboarding experience. I highly recommend it to beginners!

Coach Shuto Mine was very enthusiastic, and the atmosphere was full of energy. Even though it was my first time kayaking, I quickly understood and got the hang of it after the coach's explanation. Paddling out of the bay, I was captivated by the stunning scenery.

One of the highlights of my trip to Miyakojima! Ken was incredibly responsive, friendly, and patient throughout the entire experience. Since it was my first time trying SUP, he explained everything in detail, started slowly, and gave helpful tips that made me feel comfortable enough to try standing! The area we were in was perfect for beginners and probably advanced riders too! The water was clear and we even spotted a stingray, which made the experience even more memorable. I’ve visited Miyakojima several times, and it can be hard to find high-quality excursions with English speaking guides, so this experience stood out even more. I did the tour solo and felt completely comfortable the entire time. Ken also took amazing photos that I’ll treasure from my trip. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone visiting Miyakojima. I’ll definitely be back for another excursion!

Navštívili sme piati, z toho štyria sa zúčastnili SUP. Jedna osoba sa obávala plávania a zúčastnila sa len prepravy, ale personál bol veľmi ústretový a cítili sme sa bezpečne. Náš let meškal, ale boli veľmi ochotní prispôsobiť čas, za čo sme im naozaj vďační. Samotný zážitok so SUP bol zábavný vďaka dôkladnej inštruktáži a boli sme veľmi spokojní s množstvom krásnych fotografií a videí, ktoré sme dostali. Ďakujeme za úžasný čas! Bol to skvelý zážitok z Miyakojimy!

Zažiť SUP v mangrovovej džungli v Miyakojime – oblasti, ktorá nie je zobrazená ani na Google Maps – bol absolútne jeden z najlepších zážitkov nášho výletu. Ako rodina bez predchádzajúcich skúseností so SUP sme boli spočiatku dosť nervózni, ale Ken urobil všetko neuveriteľne jednoduchým a príjemným, od rezervácie až po koniec zážitku. Ken dával jasné, trpezlivé a pre začiatočníkov vhodné inštrukcie a mimoriadne sa staral o naše deti (piataka a žiaka prvého ročníka strednej školy). Naše mladšie dieťa malo spočiatku problémy s pádlovaním, ale Ken ho láskavo pripojil k svojmu vlastnému paddleboardu, aby si mohol naplno užiť zážitok. Muselo to od neho vyžadovať veľa úsilia, ale všetko zvládol s úžasnou profesionalitou, energiou a láskavosťou. Taktiež nám urobil množstvo skvelých fotografií, čím nám pomohol zachytiť nezabudnuteľné spomienky. Tento zážitok nemôžeme dostatočne odporučiť – najmä pre začiatočníkov. Ak navštívite Miyakojimu, toto je absolútna nevyhnutnosť. Ďakujeme, Ken!
