Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q. Can a beginner enjoy SUP (Stand Up Paddleboard)?

Yes, even beginners can have fun right away, as SUP boards are very buoyant and stable, and you can be on the board in a few minutes with a lecture. The clear waters of Kerama allow you to see coral, fish, and even sea turtles, giving you the feeling that you are walking on the ocean.

Q. How much does a SUP tour cost and how long does it take?

The half-day course (about 2 to 3 hours) costs 6,000 yen to 9,000 yen, and the full-day course (with lunch, about 5 to 6 hours) costs about 13,000 yen to 15,000 yen. Many stores offer a plan that includes snorkeling in addition to SUP, allowing you to enjoy the Keramas Blue from multiple angles.

Q. Can children and the elderly participate? Is there an age limit?

The age of participation generally starts at around 6 years old, although it varies from store to store. For preschool children, there are plans that allow them to ride along on a parent's board. The upper age limit is often set at 65 to 70 years old, but if you are in good health, you may be able to participate in many cases, so please consult with the store in advance.

Q. Please tell me what to wear and bring when SUPing and how to protect myself from sunburn.

Wearing a rash guard or leggings over a swimsuit is ideal. The sun in Kerama is intense, so avoiding exposure is the best sun protection. A hat (with chin strap), sunglasses (with strap), and marine shoes are also recommended. In winter (November to March), wetsuits provided by the store are required.

Q. Are SUP tours held on rainy days?

Basically, the event is held rain or shine. Once in the water, rain will have little effect on the activity, and you can enjoy the scenery in and on the water. However, SUP is an activity that is very susceptible to wind, so even in sunny weather, if strong winds or high waves are expected, the course may be cancelled or changed for safety reasons.
