It was a valuable experience.
My husband and I participated, and the experienced guide was very knowledgeable about safety and paddle operation, which was very satisfying. I fell into the water about three times, but the guide's teachings helped me improve my skills to get back on the boat (laughs). (This review has been machine translated) -
I was soothed by the relaxing view.
Family experience We were given detailed instructions on how to ride a SUP board and then headed to Lake Shikotsu. I was a bit worried about how to paddle and whether I could even stand on the SUP board, but we received solid support and were able to operate it well, and had a great time. You can experience the grandeur of Lake Shikotsu only on a SUP board! I'd like to use it again. (This review has been machine translated)

With the kids
I participated with my child, a fifth-grader in elementary school. It was almost my child's first time trying SUP, but instead of just enjoying SUP, we were taught various things carefully each time, such as how to handle equipment such as SUP boards and paddles, and what kind of things can lead to dangerous behavior. I was able to learn more about SUP by listening to the explanations with my child. Even when my child got stuck in shallow water or couldn't change direction properly, the instructor carefully repeated the lecture and guided him to get out of the water as much as possible by himself, and when he just couldn't do it, he gently helped him, which was very helpful. We saw a shoal of fish near the mouth of the river that connects to Lake Shikotsu, saw the flowers of a water plant called Chitosebaikamo, played with a different way of riding the SUP than usual, and tried yoga poses... It was a very fulfilling tour and we had a lot of fun. Both my child and I were very satisfied with the experience, and my child said happily in the car on the way back, "I want to go again!!" Thank you so much for giving me such a wonderful experience to kick start my summer vacation!! (This review has been machine translated) -

It was a great experience!
I participated with my family, including my parents. My parents (77 & 72 years old) had always wanted to try SUP, and although it was at their own risk, they were very happy to be able to participate here! It was a great memory for the whole family. From the time we applied until the end of the activity, the service was very polite and pleasant! I would like to participate again if I have the opportunity.

I was able to see the Chitose Baikamo.
We experienced it as a family. Two adults and two children. They happily supported our children who were nervous as it was their first time. Our children seemed to enjoy it so much that they said "I want to come again!" and we are glad we participated ☆ We also saw a cute flower in the water called Chitose Baikamo!

I never thought it would be this fun!
First time SUPing with my girlfriend. I wanted to try SUP, so I tried it for the first time. The initial explanation was easy to understand, so I didn't feel anxious even when I got out on the lake. It was harder than I thought at first, (This review has been machine translated) -
It was great!
I participated with a friend. The instructor was very friendly. The temperature was warm, but the weather was intermittent sunshine and clouds, but we felt at ease when the instructors said things like, "It feels great today," and "The water temperature is just right!". There were three instructors for four of us. As they repeatedly said, safety comes first, and it was clear that the instructors were calling out to us from the front and behind and keeping a close eye on us. It was my first time doing SUP, but I had a lot of fun! Thank you very much. (This review has been machine translated)
