Obtaining "Nitrox" is difficult according to the ordinance of Okinawa Prefecture.
We offer decompression diving with AIR and OXYGEN.

We only can offer Tecnical Fun diving, because it's a bit difficult to teach everything in English. Of course if you speak and understand Japanese it will be no problem.

Technical Fun Diving.


In this Technical Fun Dive course you will use doubble tanks and oxygen for decompression.
You can take more time underwater and at depth. For example at the American War ship "USS EMMONS" where normal scuba divers only can spend about 15min because the minimum level is at about 35m.
You can dive safely with room for an unplanned decompression.

Also we can organize trips to "Solitary Island" (Kumejima) and to Foreign countries. Please inquire by email.
