Level of difficulty

＊The trek to Pinaisara Waterfall is not an easy task. If I had to make an analogy, it would be like walking back and forth up about 1000 steps.

Please refrain from participating if you are not confident in your legs, back, and hip.

*This course is mainly focused on Pinaisara Falls! If you are mainly interested in snorkeling, please contact a snorkel tour service. If the sea is rough and the ferry on the Uehara route is cancelled, the part of snorkel tour will be also cancelled. Please note that a cancellation fee will be charged if you cancel the tour at that time (We will inform you of the tour schedule and status when confirming the evening the day before.) *If the snorkel tour is cancelled, we will offer an alternative course or a half-day Pinaisara course with lunch. The difference in tour fee will be refunded depending on the course.
