1 Dive Standard Course Scuba Diving in Yakushima

Let's enjoy your first diving experience in the clear and beautiful waters of Yakushima! The blue sea of Yakushima nurtures a rich ecosystem, creating a rich paradise where a variety of creatures live peacefully. Let's take a peek into these beautiful waters of Yakushima! This "Introductory Diving / Basic 1 Dive Course" is an activity primarily focused on the experience of breathing underwater! Note: The main purpose of this course is the underwater breathing experience, and because the dive time is short, you will rarely meet sea turtles. If you want to extend your dive time to meet sea turtles and observe nature, please apply for the "Special 1-Dive Course (commonly known as the Sea Turtle Course)" rather than this course. Special Offer: All photos and videos taken by us during the tour will be provided to you free of charge after the tour! Even on days with fewer shots, we'll capture over 50 photos and videos, ensuring you have lasting memories of your enjoyable experience.

• Public transportation options are available nearby
• Suitable for all physical fitness levels
• Available for 10 to 70 year old
• 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.
• All guests aged 60 and over, and those under 60 with health concerns, must complete and bring the signed "Diver Medical/Participant Checklist"; doctor's approval may be required. The download URL for the 'Diver Medical/Participant Checklist' can be found in the Special instructions section of your mobile ticket. Please download and complete it from there.
