This trip was absolutely worth it! The shop owners were friendly and polite! We arrived at our destination quickly and were lucky enough to encounter sea turtles while boarding the speedboat 🥹🫶🏻. The most amazing thing was the stunningly beautiful drone footage 😍. The shop owners recorded many videos for me, very professionally! They even gave us all the files at the end 🥹. This trip was unforgettable for me 🫶🏻💞. Thank you to the shop owners for their thoughtful filming! On a side note, the cats in the shop are super fierce 😍 I love them (I wanted to punch them as soon as I got close to the entrance 😆).
The itinerary allows you to fully experience Miyako Island's topography, beaches, blue skies, ocean, bridges, and tourist attractions—you'll see it all. Lunch was delicious, and although the entire bus was full of Japanese people, their orderliness made the trip comfortable. A worthwhile day trip!
Our group consisted of 10 people, all of whom were Japanese except for us. There were instructors who could speak Chinese, but it was still helpful to know some English to communicate. There were two snorkeling spots, both of which required a short boat ride to reach. I recommend renting a wetsuit for sun protection and warmth. Although it was hot on the shore, the seawater was still quite cold, and you wouldn't be able to stand being in the sea for four hours. The water was very clear, and you could see a lot of coral reefs, fish, and sea turtles. We were also very lucky to encounter a sea snake. It was a fantastic experience, and I would definitely participate again next time!
I was a little worried when I saw there weren't many reviews before I decided to buy the service, and since there was no response at first, I wasn't sure if I could get the experience. Luckily, I found their contact information myself and was able to reach the store. I hope KKday can improve on this. Aside from that, the experience was perfect. I was lucky to meet a great instructor, TEN, who personally picked me up from the hotel. I was also lucky to see sea turtles and Nemo, and I got some unforgettable memories and photos!
