5/560代Posted in October 2026It was practically my first time doing any water activities. I was worried about all sorts of things—wearing contact lenses, my phone getting wet even though it was in a waterproof case, the ocean currents, and the waves—but the moment I saw the coral reef spread out before my eyes, I was completely captivated, and all my worries vanished as I enjoyed myself. Although we were fairly far offshore, even a couple in their 60s could enjoy it. The boat was equipped with large floating mats, so parents could place their young children on them to show them the coral reef—families with children were having a great time. The scenery at Phantom Island was also magnificent, and the guide took some great photos for us—they’ve become wonderful memories.

5/530代Posted in October 2026The ferry to our destination was canceled, but thanks to their helpful guidance, we made it there safely. Since there’s usually a line for the ferry, I recommend arriving well in advance. The tour included mangrove canoeing and canyoning. Both were wonderful experiences that you don’t get to do every day. Our guides, Ike-chan and Rena, were fantastic. I highly recommend this to anyone who loves nature and wildlife! The kids were also thrilled by the natural water slides, cliff jumps, canoeing, and seeing all the wildlife. Next time, I’d like to join the night tour.

5/530代Posted in September 2026It was my first time joining a day trip in Japan, and since I didn’t know the meeting place or the itinerary, I was a little nervous at first. But they replied to my questions right away, which put my mind at ease. The tour itself was really fun! Yumi and Juri were very friendly and energetic, and the other instructors were all young too—they created a wonderful atmosphere. When they found out we were from Taiwan and didn’t speak Japanese, they interpreted for us in English and made sure we fully understood what each activity entailed. They were so kind! The SUP activity in the afternoon was especially fun! Since it was my first time trying SUP, I was a little worried about whether I’d be able to do it, but the instructors explained everything so clearly and patiently that even a beginner like me was able to get the hang of it right away. I was nervous at first, but in the end, it turned out to be an absolutely fantastic day. It was truly a fulfilling day! Yumi, Juri, and the other instructors were wonderful, and the entire trip was very comfortable. I can’t believe I had such an amazing experience on my first day trip in Japan—I highly recommend it! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

3/530代Month of posting: 2026/03By purchasing tickets in advance, we were able to board the boat smoothly and without panic. However, when I showed the QR to the ship's crew, I was tongue-tied on both the way there and the way back. I know it is a hassle to collect the tickets and QR is a hassle because of the terminal operation, but it was a bad feeling at the beginning of the trip. When we boarded the ship, they collected our suitcases and put them in a storage area. The seats are unreserved and they told us that the back of the boat is less bumpy. There is one restroom, but due to the currents, the boat to Uehara Port may be bumpy even in clear skies, so if you are worried about getting seasick, you should use anti-sickness medicine.

5/540代Month of posting: 2024/01It was really easy to book tickets in advance to Uehara Port in Iriomote Island. I could use my time effectively because I could avoid the crowds at Ishigaki Port and could board the boat right away!

4/540代Month of posting: 2023/10We took the Ishigakijima⇔Iriomotejima boat on 10/22. It was ticketless and very nice. However, I was spoken to by a foreigner traveling alone on the ship who could not speak Japanese and asked me how to reserve a rental car. I was not sure if I could rent a car on the day without reservation, so I checked with the ship's staff as soon as I got off the ship and they told me to ask the ticket office. The staff at the ticket office told me that this was the ticket office of the ship and that I should ask the car rental company about car rentals. And since he did not speak English, he told me to do it myself. I had no choice but to ask the car rental company at the boat terminal, and I was able to get the car back to them. If the ship has been registered as a World Heritage site and many foreigners are coming to the area, why don't you consider broadcasting in English as well as Japanese on the ship? Also, I felt that the nature of Iriomote Island cannot be properly protected unless there is a system that a paper with precautions for foreigners is distributed at tourist information centers and signboards, or a guide for foreigners is attached to the island to prevent entry to the island. (For example, prevention of traffic accident of wild cat or not to touch natural plants.)
