Definitely recommend this trip! - 100% recommended! I can’t imagine how this could have been any better. I found this experience to be all-inclusive (transport, gear, food, photos), easy to sign up, safe and comfortable, at a very reasonable price. I am American, visiting Okinawa for work for 1 week. It looked like it was going to rain all day, every day of my trip, but I got lucky! There was availability on the one day of sunshine, and I was able to have an amazing personalized experience on short notice. I did the 3 dive + lunch experience. These were dives #9-11 for me, and I recorded my deepest depth and longest duration dives - a testament to how calm and comfortable the experience was. I’ve only ever dove in Hawaii before, but I enjoyed the Okinawa wildlife, reefs, and coral more. On the surface, we had hot tea between dives, and there was a cooler full of warm fresh water to dump into your wet suit - a nice touch! Visibility was good, temperatures were comfortable (76F), and the wildlife was abundant. My guide was a California-raised, world-traveler Japanese man. He was VERY friendly, spoke perfect English, and made sure I was comfortable at all times. His quick thinking underwater saved my trip: I was going to end the first dive early due to some discomfort, but he was able to communicate and solve the problem without needing to surface, and the rest of the day went perfectly. He also knew where to find great wildlife and always pointed interesting things out to me (often times getting a picture too). He also took me through a beautiful rock formation that made for some great pictures. The gear was the highest quality rental equipment I’ve ever used. It all seemed brand new with no visible wear, and we went all day without any issues. The lunch was amazing. “Fisherman’s lunch” means it’s a large lunch. I had the sashimi, which came with many sides and additional items; I couldn’t quite finish it all. Based on this experience, next time I would do the BBQ Wagyu dinner that is optional afterwards. I expect it would be well worth it!

Best Experience in Okinawa - This was such an awesome and fun experience. Taz is a great guy and somehow makes you feel like you have known each other for years. It honestly felt like I went out on a dive trip with a friend. We saw a lot of cool underwater life including Saddleback clown fish, garden eels, sea snakes, lion fish, cleaner shrimp, Napoleon fish, and SO MANY MORE. Nothing felt rushed, Taz really makes an emphasis on taking your time and enjoying everything to the fullest. Taz brought his very nice professional dive camera with us and got some very nice pictures and videos of me and the sea life we saw. He was able to airdrop them directly to me at the end of the tour! The included lunch was delicious and MASSIVE. The lounge where you go before and after the diving is beautifully renovated with very nice showers to wash off in and even an outdoor foot bath. At the end we came back to the lounge and Taz offered me a slice of cheesecake and pineapple to wrap up the tour. It was a really nice touch. I felt completely safe the entire time as Taz can adjust based on your experience. He also speaks perfect English, I’m from the U.S. and his English is probably better than mine so don’t worry about that either! I also want to say that I had mentioned to Taz earlier on in the tour that I was visiting Okinawa for cherry blossom season as well and that I would be riding back up to the north of Okinawa to view the blossoms. Without even thinking about it Taz offered to drive me to the mountain and go see the cherry blossoms with me so that I wouldn’t have to drive all the way back on my own. We had a blast seeing the cherry blossoms and taking pictures. This was truly above and beyond what I expected. If you are in Okinawa and you want to go scuba diving, do it here. There is no better company on the island! They truly care about your experience.
