We participated with a group of 10, including an 8-year-old child. Seven of us experienced snorkeling for the first time, and although we had some anxiety, the explanations were thorough. By the end, everyone was smiling and very satisfied. The wonderful photos have become treasures for all of us. If we have the opportunity, we would love to visit again. We are also grateful to all the staff.8歳の子供含め10名で参加させて頂きました
シュノーケリング初体験７名　丁寧に説明して頂き多少の不安もありつつ

機会があれば是非又お邪魔します。
スタッフの皆様にも感謝です

Tom is a knowledgeable and interactive Scuba certified English speaking guide. This was my first time snorkeling; got to see a whale shark (jinbei) and made it back alive because Tom’s instructions were clear and helpful. Tom is also an avid sea life photographer; his photos are better than anything I could have taken.
Amazing experience!
