The first diving experience in the clear and beautiful sea of Yakushima. The clear blue sea of Yakushima nurtures a rich ecosystem and creates a rich paradise where various creatures live in peace. Let's take a peek at the beautiful sea of Yakushima! If you are lucky, you may meet sea turtles. This is a basic 1 dive course. * I really want to see sea turtles! Please consider participating in the "Special 1 Dive Course". The sea turtle encounter rate will increase dramatically because you can go offshore more by diving for a longer time.
This is a leisurely tour for those who cannot swim, those who are new to swimming, those with children, and anyone who can relax and participate.
All photos and videos taken during the tour will be presented free of charge after the end! Even when the number including videos is small, it exceeds 50, leaving a good memory.
In addition to the regular course starting at 8:00 and 13:00, we also offer 10:00 start and 15:00 start that you can participate according to your schedule and even on the day of arrival.

Time schedule

After filling out the application form, head to the sea. It takes about 15 minutes by car from the shop to Isso, where you can experience diving.
Lecture firmly! When you arrive at the sea, first of all, we will give a simple lecture on equipment and procedures. The time is about 30 minutes. Please relax and listen while watching the sea coming in. We also adjust the size of the wetsuit here.
