川平湾、写真で見るより全然きれいでした！カヌーで海の上から見る景色が最高で、ずっとそこにいたかったです。スタッフさんも気さくで楽しい雰囲気でした。観光もいろんな場所を案内してもらえて大満足！途中から天気が曇ってきたのだけ惜しかったけど、それでも十分楽しめました。

I joined the Kabira Bay kayaking and island sightseeing tour, and it exceeded every expectation. The color of the water in Kabira Bay is unlike anything I’ve ever seen — a vivid, almost unreal blue-green that takes your breath away. Paddling through it on a kayak was such a special experience. Our guide was wonderful, always attentive and full of great local knowledge.
The sightseeing portion was equally enjoyable — well-paced, interesting, and covered some real gems around the island.
I was worried the weather might let us down, but honestly even with some clouds, Kabira Bay was jaw-droppingly beautiful. I can only imagine how incredible it looks on a perfect sunny day. Highly, highly recommend!

SUP初めてだったけど楽しすぎました！マングローブの中を進んでいくの、すごく気持ちよくて癒されました。スタッフさんも明るくて、終始楽しい雰囲気でした。観光もいろんな場所を連れて行ってもらえて大満足！石垣に来たらまた絶対参加したいです。

I joined the mangrove SUP and island sightseeing tour, and it was such a unique experience! Gliding through the mangrove forest on a stand-up paddleboard felt like exploring a secret jungle — peaceful, beautiful, and unlike anything I’d done before. The reflections of the trees on the calm water were absolutely stunning.
The sightseeing portion was also well-paced and covered some great spots around the island. Our guide was warm and encouraging, especially for those of us who had never tried SUP before!
The weather wasn’t great on our day, which made the scenery a little muted — but honestly it added a mysterious, misty atmosphere to the mangroves. Still a fantastic tour overall!

透明すぎる海、真っ白な砂浜、最高すぎました。シュノーケリングも魚がたくさんで大興奮！ガイドさんもノリが良くてめちゃくちゃ楽しかったです。

I took the Ishigaki sightseeing tour combined with the “Phantom Island” landing and snorkeling experience, and it was truly unforgettable. The so-called “phantom island” (Hamajima) was absolutely breathtaking — a sandbar surrounded by turquoise water that feels like it shouldn’t exist in real life. Our guide was fantastic, always attentive and enthusiastic, making the whole trip feel special.
The snorkeling around the island was incredible — colorful fish and coral everywhere. The only downside was the weather, which was a bit gloomy and kept the scenery from being as vivid as it could be.
Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone visiting Ishigaki. Come on a sunny day and it’ll be perfect!

I joined the Ishigaki island tour combined with snorkeling and had a wonderful time overall. The guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, pointing out the best spots around the island and making sure everyone felt comfortable in the water. The snorkeling was a highlight — the coral and tropical fish were stunning even on an overcast day!
The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is the weather — it was unfortunately not sunny during our visit, which made the scenery a little less vibrant than I’d hoped. But honestly, the tour itself was so well-organized that it didn’t ruin the experience at all.
If you’re visiting Ishigaki, this tour is absolutely worth it. I’d love to come back on a clear day and see the crystal-blue water in full sunshine. Highly recommend!

This tour was a great combination of sightseeing and a SUP or canoe experience. Kabira Bay was stunning and paddling on the clear water was very relaxing. The guide was friendly and took many photos for us. It was a wonderful day in Ishigaki.
