Plan introduction( Sea Turtle Snorkeling )
If you want to enjoy the crystal clear ocean of Ishigaki Island in a short time, this tour is recommended.
We will snorkel at the point where you can see sea turtles with high probability.
In addition to sea turtles, you can also see colorful tropical fish and corals, which are the unique attractions of Ishigaki Island.
Most visitors to Ishigaki Island have never snorkeled before.
If you join a tour, you can rent all the necessary equipment and the guide will give you a lecture on how to snorkel safely.
On the tour, you will snorkel at a spot where you can encounter endangered sea turtles.
Here you can observe sea turtles up close, even if you have only seen them on TV, and you have a 90% chance of swimming with them.
In addition, coral and tropical fish live around the sea turtle spot.
It is a breathtakingly beautiful world.
During the afternoon when the sun is strong, it is recommended to spend time in the ocean.
The strong light illuminates the ocean, allowing you to view an even more beautiful world.
The hot afternoon hours will fly by if you join this tour.
