Fun Diving

Attendance requirements: Certified open water diver (PADI etc)

We like to dive at a leisurely pace and operate a small-group policy (max. of 3-4 people). Please feel free to make any requests? whether it be Manta Rays, tunnels and other interesting rock formations, big fish, coral, tiny sea creatures, or expeditions to distant islands! The world famous Sekiseishoko, Manta Scramble at Kabira Ishizaki, as well as other islands in the Yaeyama region such as Taketomijima, Iriomotejima, Kuroshima, Haterumajima… We will take you to wherever the best points are for that day!

Introductory Diving (Trial Dives)

Attendance requirements: Anyone can participate as long as they are 10 years or over and healthy.

Introductory DivingWelcome to the world of diving! After a simple lesson (15 mins) and then some time snorkeling to get used to the water, one of our professional diving instructors will introduce you to a fabulous underwater world!!

You can breathe underwater! Come and experience this magical sensation for yourself!!

*We do not offer introductory dives at Manta Point, as the sea is up to 10m deep and there are large numbers of boats coming and going. We do, however, offer snorkeling at Manta Point on the 1 day course.

Snorkeling

Attendance requirements: Anyone can participate as long as they are healthy.

This is a great way for young children or first-timers to take a peek under the seas around Ishigakijima ? an incredible underwater world with beautiful coral and colorful dancing fish just waiting for you!

Please understand that we may not always be able to accommodate all requests due to wether and sea conditions etc.
It is not possble to travel by air on the same day as you have gone diving. so please take this into account when planning your schedule.
