Summary: Shun San was awesome! He speaks perfect English and some Chinese! We did a snorkelling tour one day and then private surfing guide next day! He was very patient, and keeps a safety first mindset, which I think is very important in travelling. We managed to see a beautiful underwater world snorkelling and enjoyed surfing in Shirahama. Highly recommended!

Summary: Shun was an amazing guide! He took me on a hike to see the Kawazu Seven Waterfalls. We also went snorkeling afterwards. He knows his way around all the beaches and chose one based on the strength of the wind and currents. His wife also owns a coffee shop which I went to afterwards and she sells delicious coffee!
