Sea kayaking for beginners.
I'll tell you why it's an easy experience!
Sea kayaking is a great way to paddle in an open environment surrounded by a 360-degree view of the ocean. Drifting on the sea under a clear blue sky and feeling the sea breeze is a very pleasant experience.
90% of the tour participants are beginners! Even if you are worried because you are not a good swimmer or because you are not confident in your physical strength, many people tell us after the tour that they are glad they joined the tour.
With an experienced local guide!
All support is included, from how to paddle to everything else.
If you want to try canoeing (kayaking) for the first time on Ishigaki Island, we especially recommend joining a guided tour.
The kayaks used in the tours are very stable and rarely capsize. In addition, if a life jacket is worn, the kayak will float when entering the water, allowing even beginners to enjoy the tour without worry.
Kayaking while using your own paddle is easier than you think, and it's a lot more fun than you think.
Check the weather on the day of the event!
Held after the guide confirms safety.
Sea kayaking tours on Ishigaki Island are held under safe conditions, carefully considering the wind speed, wave height, and weather conditions of the day.
Many of our tours are conducted by guides who will call you the day before, explain the conditions of the tour day, and take steps to ensure your safety and enjoyment. You will have an enjoyable sea kayaking experience in an environment where safety is a top priority.
(3) Take you to a spot where the current is calm!
Small children can also experience it together◎.
Those who feel uncomfortable paddling a kayak alone can choose a two-person sea kayak.
Even if your child is too small to participate alone, it is possible for two or more people, such as a child and a parent or sibling, to ride in one kayak.
Recommended Clothing for Sea Kayaking in Ishigaki Island
Sea kayaking clothes are basically wet up to the knees. Therefore, half pants or quick-drying clothes are recommended!
In most cases, tour companies provide the equipment necessary for the tour, such as kayaks, felt boots, and life jackets, so you can have fun while wearing light clothing.
If you wish to go directly into the ocean when sea kayaking, it is recommended that you wear a swimsuit underneath.
