Pinaisara Waterfall Basin & Barasu Island Snorkeling set tour(April-Sept)
An acquisitive tour ! You can enjoy Subtropical Jungle and Sea. Go to Pinaisara waterfall basin in the morning. Tour consist of kayaking on the river and hiking on a beautiful mountain path to the basin of falls. Pinaisara waterfall is the largest waterfall in Okinawa , with a height of about 55m. “Pinai” means a beard and “sara” In the afternoon, go to Barasu Island boat for Snorkeling. You will see colorful coral and so much tropical fish. Balas Island is a small uninhabited island, made from coral splinter, brought together by the tide. Recent year, the Barasu Island has been very small, so we could just stop by there and taking photo for about 5-10minutes. We will snorkel 2 beautiful spots about 40 minutes each spot. ※Barras Island is an island that constantly changes its shape due to strong waves and winds from typhoons, etc. It is not an island that always maintains a large shape that can be landed on. In the past few years, Barasu Island has been so small that we can only land on the island to take photos. Please note that on some days the island is only accessible at low tide. 【Important Information】 Tour tickets must be collected by a day before(17:00 Japan Time) your booked tour date.
