They only split us into two groups so that the showers would not be crowded, so the content of the tour was the same. We took a shower at the end, changed and went back to the port. It was a very valuable experience.

540代Month of posting: 2021/08The color of the ocean is incomparable to any other ocean in Ishigaki Island. The tour flow was that the guide was waiting for us at the port of Ishigaki Island, and we took a boat for about 40 minutes to Panari Island. After that, we went to a rest area while walking around, prepared for snorkeling, and went snorkeling right at the harbor. After about an hour in the ocean, we had lunch at the rest stop. The rest area was quaint and relaxing. After lunch, a native of Panari guided us around the island. It was somewhat like a less touristy Taketomi Island. After walking around the island, we went snorkeling again and returned to Ishigaki Island. Personally, I highly recommend this tour, and I highly recommend you to join it when you come to Ishigaki Island!

We were told that only islanders are allowed to enter Panari Island. After arriving at the island, we prepared to go into the sea. I was surprised to find the water clearer than I had imagined. As soon as we entered the ocean, there was coral and we could really see the colorful coral. After lunch, we headed to the north beach and enjoyed snorkeling. The beach was truly beautiful, like a private beach, and was the best I have ever seen in the ocean. After taking a break, we walked around the island and saw the original landscape of Okinawa as if we had seen the real Okinawa. I highly recommend Panari Island if you want to feel a real remote island, not a touristy place like Taketomi Island.
