Percentage of review submissions]Total 12 items440代Month of posting: 2025/07Four of us participated in the tour, including two elementary school students and an elderly person. It was our first time snorkeling, but we enjoyed it very much because we were carefully taught in turn. We saw 5 or 6 sea turtles and many kinds of fish, which were cute and beautiful. Underwater cameras are available for rent and SD cards can be bought or brought. However, we could not dive because we had to wear life jackets, and it was a pity that we could not get two shots of a sea turtle and a child. There was no underwater photography by the guide. I would definitely participate again.
