Mr. Tachiki, who guided us, was very kind and supported us until we were able to equalize our ears, which was difficult at first. After we got the hang of it, we enjoyed feeding the fish and taking photos with the clownfish.ガイドをしていただいた達木さんがとても親切で、最初なかなか耳抜きが出来ないのをできるまでサポートして頂きました。できるようになったあと魚の餌付けやクマノミとの写真撮影など満喫できました。

Dear PUPA,

Thank you for sharing your delightful experience!

I am Tatsuki, who was in charge of your dive.

At first, you seemed a bit anxious, but once you grasped the tips for equalizing, you were able to relax and had a great dive!

During the feeding, both of you were surrounded by fish, looking like fish tamers, which made for some fantastic photos (laughs).

When you come back to Okinawa, let's dive together again! I look forward to the day we can meet again!

Thank you for participating!

A great spot to see sea turtles and five species of clownfish!

I went diving with a friend who hadn't dived in 13 years. Although the visibility was quite low due to the weather, the sunlight made it bright, and we were able to see various clownfish, including the Hama clownfish, common clownfish, anemone clownfish, and the saddleback clownfish.

We were also lucky to spot a green sea turtle resting nearby. It was quite accustomed to people and didn't swim away even when we got close, allowing us to take photos at our leisure.

We were also lucky to spot a green sea turtle resting nearby. It was quite accustomed to people and didn't swim away even when we got close, allowing us to take photos at our leisure.

Perhaps because of the feeding, the six-lined wrasse came close enough that we could see its scales clearly, which was a fun experience that you can't have on remote islands. It was a great spot for both beginner and experienced divers to enjoy! 13年ぶりのダイビングという友人と潜りましたが、天候の関係でかなり透明度は低かったものの、日差しで明るく、ハマクマノミ、クマノミ、カクレクマノミ、セジロクマノミ、ハナビラクマノミを見ることができました。
また運良くアオウミガメが休んでいて、かなり人に慣れていて近くにいても逃げなかったので！ゆっくり写真が撮れました。

The rock beauty over there is too used to people... it's aggressive ('_').
On top of that, it keeps poking at its injured spot, so the wound isn't healing well... (laughs)!
Please come visit again (´ー｀)! サッキー様

Dear Kokoro,

Thank you very much for your wonderful review! This is Mao, who was in charge of your experience.

The gentlemen were very skilled and made nice dives!! (^^♪

I would be thrilled if the photos become great memories for you. Please do come back to Adventure Island again with everyone!

All of our staff are looking forward to welcoming you.

It's okay to participate alone.

I participated alone, but I'm glad I did. The guide provided one-on-one support! It's okay if you can't swim. If you just relax, they'll pull you along. I opted for a full-face mask, and I think that was the right choice. I struggled with breathing through just the snorkel, but with the full-face mask, I didn't have to bite down on anything, and it was completely comfortable. Equalizing my ears was easy too.

I saw a lot of fish, and I even spotted an anemone that retracts when touched. The guide… I participated alone, but I'm glad I did. The guide provided one-on-one support! It's okay if you can't swim.

I saw a lot of fish, and I even spotted an anemone that retracts when touched. The guide's bubble rings were amazing as well.

They took a lot of photos, which is great because when traveling alone, I often don't have any pictures of myself. If anyone is considering participating alone, I highly recommend it! 一人参加でしたが、参加してよかったです。
ガイドさんがマンツーマンで対応してくれました！
泳げなくても大丈夫です。
ぽけーっとしていれば引っ張って連れて行ってくれます。
オプションでフルフェイスマスクをつけましたが、それも正解だったと思います。
シュノーケルの口だけで息するのが苦手だったのですが、フルフェイスは口でくわえなくていいし、全く苦しくなくできました。耳抜きも楽ですよ。
魚もたくさん見られたし、触ると引っ込むイソギンチャク？的なのも見られたし、ガイドさんのバブルリングもすごかったです。

写真もたくさ… 一人参加でしたが、参加してよかったです。

I had my license but hadn't had the opportunity to dive for seven years. Since it had been a while, I signed up for an introductory dive and explained that I was like a complete beginner. My wife and I participated, and we were both very nervous, but the staff member was friendly and talked to us, which helped ease our tension. They also provided very thorough explanations, reminding me of things I had forgotten. During the dive, I was guided carefully and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.
