All dives from a boat
It would be a real shame if you came all the way to Ishigaki Island but couldn't dive into its beautiful ocean, wouldn't it? To fully enjoy the charm of Ishigaki Island's seas, boat diving is an absolute must.
Of course, you won't have to carry heavy equipment, so even those who aren't confident in their physical strength can relax and enjoy it! We can access various diving points, so you can participate in the training while having the maximum amount of fun.
Private lessons with a very small class size
The greatest significance of the license course is to clear away each and every one of your concerns. To ensure you thoroughly acquire the basic techniques, we provide dedicated support to each individual! You can confidently participate in the license course, ensuring that you'll never feel like, "I'm still a bit unsure because I'm hesitant around others..."
Outstanding clarity, "Ishigaki Blue!"
Even among the beautiful seas of Ishigaki Island, the northern region, furthest from the city, boasts an even more stunning beauty!
Say goodbye to "poor visibility," the biggest stress for first-time divers, with the genuine Ishigaki blue! Feel the power of the untouched natural sea throughout your body!
