Frequently asked questions about this plan

Q. Is there a parking lot near the meeting place?

Parking is available. Parking spaces are available at the store where we will meet.

Q. What is the difference between the two?I will be returning on an evening flight, can I join a kayak tour that day?

Of course, you can join the kayak tour even on the day you return from Okinawa.

It will take about 2 hours to get to Naha Airport from Hishagawa (meeting place) where the kayak tour is held, and to return the rental car.

Q. What is the difference between the two?Can I go on a kayak tour even if I can't swim?

Even if you are not a good swimmer, it is okay! On kayak tours, everyone must wear a life jacket to get into the kayak.

The kayaks are also highly buoyant and stable, with models that are resistant to capsizing, so please feel free to join us.

Q. What is the difference between the two?If it rains, will kayak tours be cancelled?

basicallyTours are held even if it rains.The weather is very good. Put on your rain gear and let's go.

However, depending on the amount of rainfall, we may cancel the tour at our discretion for the safety of our customers if the river current becomes too strong or if the water surface conditions are not good. We will contact you if the tour is cancelled or the tour time is changed.

比謝川の穏やかな流れとマングローブの景色に癒やされました。ガイドさんの知識も豊富で、生き物の観察もできて面白かった。ただ、日差しを遮るものがないので、帽子やサングラスがないと少し厳しいかもしれません。自然を体感するにはとても良いツアーです。
