I was tired from diving, canoeing, and trekking, but everything was authentic, and the experience at the Piñuelas Waterfall was incredibly healing! It was not just an experience; I learned a lot from it, which truly added value. At night, I slept soundly. It became a wonderful memory.ダイビングもカヌーもトラッキングもで疲れたけど全て本格的でピナイサーラの滝では極上の癒しでした！
体験というレベルではなく、色々教えてくれたので本当にプラスになりまさした。
夜は、ぐっすり眠れました。とても良い思い出になりました。

The guide was wonderful, running the business as a family and creating a warm atmosphere. They took lots of photos, making for the best memories! We waited at the shop until our return boat arrived, and that time was enjoyable too. Since we were staying in Ishigaki, we went to Uehara Port first thing in the morning. It’s a busy season with many ferry passengers, so it’s better to make a reservation if you can!ご家族で経営されててアットホームで素敵なガイドさんでした♫
写真もいっぱい撮って頂いて最高の想い出になりました！
帰りの船がくるまで、お店で待たせて頂いて、そんな時間も楽しかったです♫
石垣に宿泊していたので、朝一で上原港まで行きました。繁忙期でフェリーのお客さんが多いので予約できるならした方が良いです！

また、シュノーケリングやダイビング共に想像を超える景色を堪能できて幸せでした。
特に僕の希望であったウミガメ観察を叶えるために、ウメガメを迅速に見つけてくれて、深く感謝申し上げます。
またアクティビティ中に写真も複数撮影してもらいましたが、写真のクオリティも素晴らしかったです！
インストラクターの方は水泳技術のみならず、撮影技術も素晴らしくて、感動しました(*´ω｀*)

I experienced a one-day course that included a mangrove canoe experience, Pinai Sara Falls, and diving. First of all, the location is very convenient, just a 1-2 minute walk from the port! The guide was very knowledgeable and explained the flora and fauna in the mangroves in a clear and detailed manner. It was really interesting and fun! ^^ For lunch, I enjoyed Yaeyama soba, which had a warm and gentle flavor and was delicious!

The diving instructions in the afternoon were also thorough, and they tailored it to accommodate us beginners, so we felt safe participating. When we had trouble in the water, they helped us right away! Meeting the staff was a wonderful experience, and it became a great memory! I would love to come back here again someday. Thank you very much! 1日コースで、マングローブのカヌー体験、ピナイサーラの滝、ダイビングを体験しました。
まず、港から徒歩1〜2分と好立地で便利です！
案内のお兄さんがとても知識豊富で、マングローブでは動植物について大変丁寧にわかりやすく説明してくれました。すごく興味深く面白かったです！^^
お昼には八重山そばをご馳走になりましたが、こちらも温かく優しい味がして美味しかったです！
午後のダイビングの説明も丁寧で、初心者の私達に合わせてくださったので安心して参加できました。水の中で困った時もすぐ助けてくださりました！
