If you are participating with a family that includes children in grades 4-6 (ages 10-12), or groups with individuals over 65 years old (aged 66-70), we will accommodate you with a "private charter tour". Additionally, children in grades 2-3 (ages 8-9) can experience the adventure of "breathing underwater" in shallow waters up to -2 meters deep. This will also be arranged as a "private charter tour."

Those under the age of 13 (elementary school students) must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

For this course, we need to give you a technical lecture in Japanese for about 1 hour before diving. But there is no staff member in our shop who are fluent in English now. We are not good at English very well, so our pre-diving briefing will be given in Japanese with some broken English and by gestures. Therefore, it might be difficult for those who are completely new to diving and do not understand Japanese to join in it... We apologize for the inconvenience...
•
However, snorkeling tours do not require as much technical instruction. Therefore, anyone can participate in snorkeling without any problems, even if they do not understand Japanese. Furthermore, Snorkeling has the highest chance of meeting sea turtles of all sea activities! The chances of seeing sea turtles are much higher with this course than with the "Introductory Diving / Special 1 Dive Course (commonly known as the Sea Turtle Course)", which has a longer dive time specifically designed to see sea turtles. Please consider it.
