Thank you for the wonderful snorkeling experience in the beautiful waters of Okinawa! My daughters, aged 12 and 14, were a bit anxious about snorkeling since they aren't very good swimmers, but the instructor was incredibly attentive and provided thorough guidance. Additionally, with the support of wetsuits, life jackets, and bodyboards, the kids were truly delighted to see the coral reefs and tropical fish! The weather was perfect that day, and the water clarity was at its best! I would love to… Thank you for the wonderful snorkeling experience in the beautiful waters of Okinawa!

娘は12歳と14歳であまり泳ぎが上手ではないので、シュノーケリングに少し不安を抱えていましたが、インストラクターさんが本当に丁寧に教えてくださり、さらに、ウエットスーツ&ライフジャケット&ボディーボードの3段構えでサポートしてくれましたので、子供達は本当に喜んで珊瑚礁や熱帯魚たちを見ていました♪
この日はど晴天で海の透明度もMAXで最高でした!
また機会がありましたらぜひお願いしたいと思います。
ありがとうございました!
