With two guided dives and flexible site selection, it suits divers looking for coral reefs, marine life, and close instructor support without fixed group schedules. The focus is on safety, comfort, and adapting the dives to conditions and experience level on the day rather than pushing depth or time limits. 🧭 Key Details Duration: Approximately 4 hours Group size: 1–6 participants Number of dives: 2 Equipment: Fully included Photography: Included Meeting point: Yamakawa Port, Motobu, Okinawa 🧠 Key Skills Controlled descents and ascents from a boat Buoyancy control over reef environments Dive planning with site and condition awareness Underwater communication and buddy positioning Environmental awareness around coral and marine life 🌊 What to Expect The session starts at the port with paperwork and a detailed dive briefing covering sites, conditions, safety procedures, and dive plans. Once onboard, the boat heads to the first dive site selected by the captain based on visibility, swell, and currents. This ensures dives are conducted in the most suitable conditions available that day. Each dive is guided and adjusted to the experience level of the group. The instructor manages navigation and positioning while allowing certified divers the space to enjoy the reef, marine life, and relaxed bottom time. Expect coral formations and tropical fish common to northern Okinawa, with dives kept comfortable rather than rushed. Between dives, the boat moves to a second site to offer variety and improve conditions. Surface intervals are spent resting onboard, hydrating, and reviewing the next dive. Photos and short video clips are taken during the dives and shared afterwards at no extra cost. 📍 Location Diving takes place by boat around Minna Island, Sesoko Island, or coastal areas near Motobu in northern Okinawa. These sites are known for coral reefs, manageable depths, and conditions suitable for recreational fun diving. Final site selection is made on the day after assessing weather and sea state. This flexible approach prioritises safety and visibility rather than committing to a fixed itinerary. ✅ Prerequisites Participants must hold a recognised scuba diving certification and be comfortable completing boat dives.
