I never thought I could experience so many things in one day: the ocean, the island, and the mangroves! I recommend this tour for first time travelers because you can enjoy Ishigaki Island efficiently, the itinerary is not too strenuous even for me in my 40s, and the canoeing was surprisingly easy to operate. I was also happy to have my picture taken as part of the service.
A starry sky experience that you can never have in everyday life. I was skeptical about what a night tour would be like, but the stars in the pitch dark jungle were breathtaking. It was so spectacular that I could not have captured it with my cell phone. It has been a long time since I was so moved by nature.
I was attracted by the name "Phantom Island" when I signed up for the trip, but the beauty of the island was beyond my imagination. As a 40-something, I was thinking mainly of leisurely sightseeing, but I am so glad I tried snorkeling. The guide was very attentive and made me feel at ease.
I was attracted by the sound of the three Michelin-starred Kabira Bay, and I was right! The view of the ocean from the SUP was beyond my imagination, and the feeling of gliding on the water with the wind in my face was so comfortable that my stress seemed to flow away with me. It was a very satisfying experience even in a short time.
I never knew there was such a quiet time to feel nature.... The experience of canoeing slowly through the mangroves was a detoxification of the mind itself. The tour schedule was reasonable, and I was very satisfied with the beautiful photos taken.
The experience of SUPing through the mangroves was just so fresh and relaxing. The fact that we could enjoy both the river and the ocean in one day was also a great point. I was very satisfied with the activity, which was also good for my physical strength. The guides were friendly and made me feel at ease.
