Plan Overview（Sea kayak Sea turtle snorkeling）
Why don’t you enjoy sea kayaking and snorkeling with sea turtles in the clear waters of Miyakojima?
This is a recommended tour to fully enjoy these two typical activities in the tropical resort island of Miyakojima.
We will go sea kayaking at beach, about 15 minutes from the airport.
Paddling in pairs, you will have a great time. Spending time in the sea of Miyako Island, where you can see far into the distance, while enjoying conversation will bring you closer together. If you look down into the ocean, you will be amazed at how clear the water is, so that you can even see the bottom of the ocean.
Next, your guide will take you to a point where you are almost certain to see sea turtles. Before, you just watched from above the ocean, but from here you can dive in and enjoy the underwater world to the fullest.
First of all, an experienced guide will give you a thorough lecture so that you can snorkel with confidence. As soon as you enter the water, you will be able to spot sea turtles. Turtles, which are listed as an endangered species, are usually only seen in aquariums, but here you can see them up close and personal, which is very exciting! In addition, this spot is home to an abundance of coral reefs and tropical fish, so be sure to observe the many fish.
The waters of Miyakojima are crystal clear, and you can enjoy just looking at them. However, if you have come all the way to Miyakojima, please join a tour and try snorkeling. The calm waters will satisfy even those who have never snorkeled before!
You will go home with memories that will last a lifetime.
