Product Info

  • "Private Group Tour" This is a private boat charter for one group only, offering tropical fishing and snorkeling. It is recommended for those who want to make their stay in Okinawa a special time or who want to spend time in a private space just for themselves. Unlike typical shared boat tours, you don't have to worry about other people. We will guide you to the ultimate Okinawa vacation that can only be experienced on a private course. "The boat is a new vessel launched in 2024, and is the perfect size for a private group charter" The boat used for the course is a new vessel delivered in 2024, the "YAMAHA YFR-27HMEX". It is equipped with a toilet, shower, air conditioning, cabin and sunshade awning, so women and children can relax with peace of mind. The capacity is 10 people, and up to 8 customers can board in addition to the captain and 2 staff members. It is the perfect size for a private group charter. The engine is Yamaha's latest model, the "V-type 6-cylinder model F250N". It uses gasoline instead of diesel as fuel, so there are no issues with clean exhaust fumes, smell, or noise. "The port is a 5-minute walk from Chatan American Village." The port is located in the very popular Chatan town, which has many resort hotels, shopping centers, and restaurants. It is Chatan Fisherina, the closest port to the tourist spot "American Village," so access and atmosphere are excellent. "Half-day course with two departures per day, available in the morning and afternoon." Recommended for those who have a busy schedule and want to make the most of their time, such as after arriving in Okinawa or on the morning of their last day. Even with the half-day course, you can spend about two hours relaxing after arriving at the point.
  • Photography and rental equipment are all included in the price, so there are no additional charges.
  • This plan includes everything you need for snorkeling, so there are no additional charges. From November to May, when it can be chilly in a swimsuit, we will also provide a wetsuit free of charge. We will also give you the digital data of photos taken by our staff with an underwater camera, free of charge. Two fishing rods with rigs and bait will be provided. *Please note that there will be a charge if you use the parking lot at "Chatan Fisherina" (free for the first 2 hours, 100 yen/60 minutes after 2 hours, maximum 400 yen for 24 hours) or the hot showers at "Uminchu Warp" (200 yen/5 minutes).
  • The course organizer is a specialist in Okinawa's seas and marine sports!
  • The course organizer is a marine specialist with over 23 years of experience as an Okinawa marine sports instructor (as of 2025), and is a CMAS instructor (diving), ISA instructor (surfing), SUPA instructor (SUP), member of the Chatan Fisheries Cooperative (underwater fisherman), and an Okinawa marine sports instructor. Therefore, they have designed a course that will allow guests to enjoy the Okinawan sea to the fullest. The staff are also certified by the Okinawa Prefectural Public Safety Commission, so you can enjoy the course with peace of mind.
  • Tropical fishing and snorkeling in the Kerama Chibishi Sea, which boasts some of the clearest waters in the world.
  • The area where the course is held, Chibishi, is located about 12km west of Naha on Okinawa Island (about 30-40 minutes by boat from Chatan) and refers to three islands (Nagannu Island, Kuefu Island, and Kamiyama Island) and three atolls belonging to Tokashiki Island in the Kerama Islands. Its official name is Keisejima, but it is often called Chibishi, a name derived from the Okinawan dialect. The Kerama Islands and the surrounding sea were designated as a national park on March 5, 2014 (Coral Day). The sea, which boasts some of the clearest waters in the world, is called "Kerama Blue" and attracts many tourists and divers from both within Japan and overseas. A diverse range of corals inhabit the area, and humpback whales come in winter to raise their young and breed. It is also a valuable place designated as a protected area, serving as a breeding ground for migratory birds such as terns and sea turtles.
