Winter, when the plankton is reduced, is the most glorious season of the year. On days when the waves are calm, you can see all the way to the bottom of the ocean and enjoy the overwhelming clarity of the water.

It was my first time on a SUP, and I was really worried before we set off about whether I’d be able to balance properly, but thanks to the guide’s excellent support, even a beginner like me had no trouble at all. The sunset view while cruising on the calm ocean at dusk was truly beautiful, and I’m so glad I took the plunge and joined the tour. I even got the photos for free, and it made all my everyday stress melt away.

I took my kids on a SUP tour at Kabira Bay. They were thrilled to paddle across the beautiful, Michelin three-star-rated waters, their eyes sparkling with excitement. The instructor taught us gently while prioritizing safety, so as a parent, I was able to relax and fully enjoy the natural surroundings. We also received plenty of photos, which made for a wonderful family keepsake.

Everything went smoothly. I was able to enjoy stand-up paddleboarding at Kawahira Bay, which has three Michelin stars, and the arrangements—including the shuttle service—went without a hitch. The free photo service was also very convenient and helpful. I’ll definitely use this service again.

I took a kayaking tour of Kabira Bay while traveling alone on Ishigaki Island, and the guide was so friendly and approachable that I never felt lonely and really enjoyed myself. Spending time leisurely gazing at the emerald-green sea—which has earned three Michelin stars—from the water became a luxurious memory of a solo trip where I was completely immersed in nature. The free digital photos also made for a wonderful keepsake.

I also really appreciated the free transportation and photo services.
