Frequently Asked Questions About the Kumejima Marine Sports Tour

Q. I'm not a strong swimmer. Can I still participate in the trial session?

Yes, that’s no problem at all! During the experience, you’ll wear a high-buoyancy life jacket, so even if you can’t swim, you can participate with confidence. Since snorkeling is an activity enjoyed while floating on the water’s surface, you’ll be able to move along at a leisurely pace with the guide’s support—which is another reason to feel at ease.

Q. What should I wear on the day of the trial session?

Please arrive wearing your swimsuit and clothing that can get wet (such as a rash guard, T-shirt, or shorts). Since the sun is strong on Kumejima, we recommend wearing a long-sleeved rash guard for sun protection. Please also bring water shoes or beach sandals to protect your feet.

Q. Can young children and elderly family members participate as well?

While the age range varies by tour, snorkeling-focused tours are experiences that everyone—from children to seniors—can enjoy together. Many of these tours take place at calm locations, making them ideal for three-generation family outings. Participation requirements vary by tour, so please check them when making your reservation.

My husband and I took this tour together. With Typhoon No. 30 about to hit and high waves a concern, we were relieved to know that safety was the top priority and the tour was operating as scheduled. The snorkeling was also a lot of fun. They scattered feed at a spot teeming with fish, making it the best experience I’ve ever had interacting with fish while snorkeling. They were thoughtful and attentive from start to finish, so we had a very pleasant time. Thank you so much.

The trip to Hate no Hama Beach was beautiful. The tour guides were so helpful. We took an afternoon tour, and there was no one else on the island—it was amazing. The snorkeling was great, and the staff even had fresh sashimi waiting for us on the boat. We didn’t speak Japanese, but they were very accommodating and friendly!

Kumejima】Hate-no-hama Beach Landing Tour (with free snorkel set rental) (No.801)

Tama / 60s Posted on: October 2026

The day before the typhoon, I changed my plans and arrived on Kume Island. Thinking I absolutely had to visit Hatenohama at least once, I signed up for a snorkeling tour the very next morning as soon as I arrived. I figured the weather would be rough for two or three days and the tour would likely be canceled. Then it looked like the tour might be canceled the next day.　So I received a message asking, “We’re rushing to organize an afternoon tour today—would you like to join?” It was a tight squeeze to make the shuttle, but I gladly accepted. As a result, I was able to experience the wonderful Hatenohama Beach—even though the waves were a bit rough. The staff were very kind, and I got to see lots of fish. Thank you very much.

The pure white sands and blue waters of Hatenohama were so beautiful that every spot I photographed was Instagram-worthy! The photos of the fish I took while snorkeling were adorable, too—I was completely satisfied! Since the tour included transportation, I was able to focus on taking pictures of the scenery even while we were traveling. If you want to capture some wonderful photos, I highly recommend this tour!

All the staff were polite and cheerful, which made me feel at ease! The weather looked like it was going to be bad on our scheduled day, but they offered an alternative plan, so we were able to go snorkeling and enjoy the view at Hatenohama—it was a huge help! During the snorkeling, they scattered food for the fish, so we got to see lots of them! We were free to use cameras and other equipment, so we took plenty of photos!
