【STORY】

Why not go on a snorkeling trip with a local guide in the crystal clear waters of the Yaeyama Islands in Okinawa? This tour will take you to Sekisei Lagoon by chartered boat. Sekisei Lagoon is a rich marine area with more coral species than Australia's Great Barrier Reef. Its safety and proximity to corals make it one of the best terrains in the world. Enjoy snorkeling in this sea with its diverse ecology, which is also designated as a national park.

【HIGHLIGHTS】
