Some of our group had very little snorkeling experience, so we were a little nervous, but since we had the tour all to ourselves, the staff stayed with us the whole time to provide support. Thanks to their patient guidance on breathing techniques and other tips, even my friend—who was scared at first—ended up completely captivated by the underwater scenery. Even though it was just a half-day tour, we were thoroughly satisfied.

I took part in a private charter to experience the ocean off Amami with my relatives’ children. The boat was very spacious and comfortable, and the kids were thrilled—their eyes lit up as they saw the beautiful fish while snorkeling. Thanks to the staff’s attention to safety, we adults were able to watch over them with peace of mind. We even received a complimentary photo, making it a wonderful memory filled with smiles for the whole family.

My heart was simply cleansed by the crystal-clear ocean stretching as far as the eye could see and the endless blue of the sky. As I felt the sea breeze on our private charter boat, the hustle and bustle of everyday life seemed to melt away into the sound of the waves… I enjoyed a leisurely half-day of snorkeling and was able to spend a truly peaceful, happy, and soothing time.

The facilities were great. We were able to efficiently enjoy a half-day snorkeling experience on a private charter boat limited to just one group. The boat was spacious and functional, capable of accommodating even large groups. It was also nice to receive the photo data as a gift. The wind was a bit chilly when we got out of the water, but overall, we were very satisfied.

I’ve taken small-group tours in the past, but since this was a family trip, we decided to charter a private boat. It was great that we didn’t have to worry about others and could go into the water or relax on the boat at our own pace. Sharing the crystal-clear waters of Amami with everyone created an irreplaceable memory for us.

First, we met up with the staff at the harbor and boarded a large, private charter boat. Next, we enjoyed an elegant cruise while feeling the sea breeze and headed to the snorkeling spot (phew). Once we arrived, we went into the water and slowly observed the colorful fish while peering into the crystal-clear waters. I’m still reminiscing about what a wonderful time we had, relaxing on that spacious boat.

I wasn’t very confident in my stamina and was worried about whether I’d be able to keep up with the activities at sea, but since it was a private charter, they tailored the pace entirely to us, which was a huge help. I was able to relax on the boat, and thanks to the staff’s gentle guidance during snorkeling, the fun outweighed any fatigue. I’m so glad I took the plunge and joined the tour.

I used this service for a trip with my coworkers. Although we only had a limited time—half a day—we were able to enjoy snorkeling at our own pace since we had the tour all to ourselves. The guide did a great job leading the way and took us to a spot with beautiful coral, so we were all able to share a truly fulfilling experience. The photos we took will be a great keepsake.

The private charter was seriously amazing lol. The boat was huge, the privacy was off the charts, and we had a blast hanging out with friends—our energy was through the roof!

On our first trip to Amami Oshima, we booked this charter tour because we wanted to show our kids the beautiful ocean. Since it was a private tour just for our family, it was a huge relief to be able to enjoy ourselves at our own pace without worrying about other participants. I can still hear the children’s cheers from when we saw the emerald-green ocean from the boat. Even while we were snorkeling, the staff spoke kindly to the children, which made me feel very at ease. We also received some wonderful digital photos, making this the best family vacation ever.

As a half-day tour that can be booked exclusively for large groups, it includes snorkeling and digital photos, so I think it offers great value for the price. The boat’s spaciousness and amenities exceeded my expectations. However, since getting ready for snorkeling takes time with a large group, it would have been perfect if there had been even more thorough advance guidance regarding fitting rental equipment and other details. Overall, it was a satisfying and well-rounded experience.
