Frequently Asked Questions About the Miyako Island Banana Boat Tour

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

Yes, that's no problem! During the experience, you'll wear a high-buoyancy life jacket, so even if you can't swim, you can participate with confidence. As long as you hold on tightly to the boat, you can enjoy this activity even if you're not a strong swimmer.

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 Miyako Island, we recommend wearing a long-sleeved rash guard for sun protection. Please also bring water shoes to protect your feet when boarding and disembarking.

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

While the age requirements and participation conditions vary by plan, since banana boat rides are group activities, they’re an experience that everyone—from children to seniors—can enjoy together. There are also plans that allow you to enjoy the ride at a leisurely pace, making them ideal for families. Participation conditions vary by plan, so please check them when making your reservation.

I took part in water sports like banana boat rides with my kids. The kids were thrilled by the incredible speed and were running around and having a blast on the beautiful ocean. The staff kept a close eye on the kids and made sure everyone stayed safe, so as a parent, I was able to watch them with peace of mind.
