It's only a 30-second walk from the store to the boat you'll be using, and there's no need to provide information on the rental size of participants, which significantly reduces the burden on organizers.

The boat boarding point is just a 30-second walk from the store, and the Euglena Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal is just a 5-minute walk away, so you can park your car in the free parking lot and head out to the remote islands. There's also a wide selection of clean rental equipment, and since you can adjust the size when you meet up, there's no need to gather information on rental sizes for participants.

We promise to provide thorough, small group guided tours for all courses! We are the safest diving service in the world.

The introductory diving course has a maximum of two guests per instructor. For groups of three or four, two instructors will be available, or you can split the introductory dive into two separate sessions. The snorkeling course has a maximum of four guests per instructor. You can enjoy guided snorkeling under the guidance of a buddy, ensuring safety. We have been in business for 25 years, and have never had a single accident or injury, with safety as our number one priority.

There are also female instructors, so women traveling alone can feel at ease.

There is a female instructor on-site.
