Guided tour to manta ray and sea turtle point

Swim with wild manta rays, which you cannot experience in an aquarium, and snorkel with the adorable sea turtles, which are very popular with all!

The captain will select a point where there is a high probability of encountering manta rays or sea turtles based on the sea conditions of the day.

The king of the sea, the powerful manta ray is a sight to behold!

The manta ray, the world's largest ray, is called the "king of the sea" for its graceful swimming and presence in the ocean.

They are very large, ranging in size from 4 to 6 meters, and their beautiful form gives them an overwhelming presence in the water.

Underwater, objects look 1.3 times larger than on land, so manta rays look much larger in person.

Great 360° location
Popular Spots on Ishigaki Island ".Phantom Island (Hamashima)"

As the boat heads toward the phantom island from the offshore snorkeling point, the ocean color (azure blue) gradually becomes shallower and shallower as it gets closer to the phantom island, and a gradient emerald blue world opens up at once.

Please enjoy the most extraordinary experience while relaxing and enjoying the scenery on the phantom island.

We have many photo-worthy items available, so take many pictures that can only be taken here!

This is a great package that combines a visit to the “Phantom Island” with snorkeling to see sea turtles. The included transportation made getting there a breeze. However, it was a shame that the waves were a bit high on the day of the tour, which cut our snorkeling time at the sea turtle spot short. I guess it really depends on the weather.

The scenery on the "phantom island" was absolutely beautiful—I was truly moved! During the snorkeling, I was so excited to swim alongside the sea turtles I’d always dreamed of seeing. It was also great that it was a quick, half-day trip ♡

The white sandy beaches of Phantom Island were just heavenly! After that, we went snorkeling and swam with cute sea turtles up close, which was the most memorable experience. It was easy to get around with the pick-up service.

I was so excited to see the sea turtles I had longed to see while snorkeling! The island of illusion was also beautiful and I could fully enjoy the sea of Ishigaki Island even in half a day. The pick up and drop off service is also very convenient.
