Very good deal, especially for the price - For less than 50€ you get a guided snorkeling session (with all the necessary gear) and a tour of the blue cave, which isn't the biggest but still very pretty. Transportation is also included in the price so even better! The sea was crystal clear and there were many fish, which I was able to record with my own camera (that you can bring with you no problem). Unforgettable experience, very recommended!

Very nice, great success! - Great guide and great views! We we're picked up at our Hotel, which was super convenient. Foreigner friendly as our guide was able to communicate in English.

Vivid memories from below the sea surface - Area around Blue Cave is full of brightly colored fish and living coral - just what you want for a snorkeling trip. Would definitely do again.

Ishigaki Trip - I participated with my child, but the guide took care of me so I was able to enjoy myself as well! We took lots of photos and it was a great memory! We wore wetsuits in the sea so it wasn't cold!

Blue Grotto - I was moved by the beautiful ocean!! It was my first time, so I was a little worried about whether I would be able to swim well, but the instructor taught me carefully and I was able to swim well! I didn't see any sea turtles, but I saw a lot of colorful fish and coral, and I even touched a sea cucumber for the first time. It was a lot of fun!! Also, during the car ride, I was taught a lot about Ishigaki Island and was told about some recommended restaurants, which was very helpful! Thank you very much!!

snorkeling - It was my first time snorkeling, and the sea was beautiful and I was able to see a lot of fish. The guide spoke to me in a friendly manner and I was able to enjoy swimming. This was my first time going to Ishigaki Island, and I never expected the sea to be so beautiful. Also, our guide told us about some delicious food restaurants, and we went there, and it was really delicious. It was one of my best memories during my trip to Ishigaki Island. I will be traveling to Ishigaki Island next year and the year after that, so I would like to participate again.

First snorkeling experience - It was my first time snorkeling and I was a little nervous at first, but the guide guided me and I had a lot of fun! It was a great memory to see so many beautiful fish! I was allowed to use the shower near the port, away from the sea.

The sea was so beautiful! - I went snorkeling for the first time. I was nervous at first, but it was fun. It was very beautiful with lots of brightly colored fish, but unfortunately we didn't see any sea turtles. We had the option of being dropped off at a hotel or at a shower facility, and we chose the latter. There was a charge for shampoo and body soap, but it was nice to have a hair dryer. I would like to do some activities when I travel to Ishigaki Island again!
