The experience of viewing the ocean from the sky, although short, left a strong impression on me. The height was just right, and the beauty of the scenery outweighed the fear. The staff was very attentive and made me feel at ease even though it was my first time parasailing.
I joined this tour because I was attracted by the fact that I could experience both mangrove SUP and snorkeling. I think it is a luxury to be able to experience the difference between the ocean and the river in one day.
I chose this tour because it offered both ocean and island sightseeing in one day. I was impressed not only by snorkeling at the Phantom Island but also by leisurely walking in the streets of Taketomi Island. There was a lot of moving around, but the tour guide was very attentive and we did not get lost.
The mangroves in the morning were impressive because the wind was calm and we could feel the sounds of nature as we proceeded. In the afternoon snorkeling, the color of the ocean changed dramatically, and it was nice to be able to experience a completely different landscape in one day. It was not physically demanding.
The colors in the Blue Cave were even more intense than in the pictures, and even a snorkeling beginner could enjoy it without any problems. The tour was smooth, and the contents were well packed even in a half-day tour. The experience of being able to go into the sea even in winter was very valuable.
I was a little apprehensive because it was winter sea, but in fact the water was crystal clear and Kabira Bay, where we SUPed, was very quiet. I could see sea turtles from a distance, and the guide's explanation was calm and reassuring. I was also happy to have so many pictures taken.
