Golden Week Part #2 - Sea Diving

Diving is a great activity for the whole family with no experience needed. Instructions and training are part of every dive. Plus you don’t need to have any of your own gear, with a full stock of all equipment available for any dive form a beginner to an advanced diver you have nothing to worry about. You can choose just to go out for the day or you can pick from one of many Bluefield’s 2 or 3 day dive packages. 

 

 

They operate several diving tours from the Bluefield dive shop located on the mail island of Okinawa. From Okinawa you have the choice of taking a half-day or full day boat excursion, or if you prefer, our experienced guides can take you shore diving at their select shore dive sites off Okinawa. If, however, you prefer a full day of diving, they also offer full service dive trips to the Kerama Islands.

 

 

As you dive in the waters off the Okinawa Main Island you will be greeted by schools of tropical fish as they gather over boundless reefs full of soft and hard corals. White tip reef sharks are relatively common creatures found on some of our dives, and they even have a special spot, where there is a white tip reef shark nursery, for those adventurous divers. Majestic reef landscapes abound, and the three varieties of sea turtles make this their home. Bluefield dive guides will point out sea turtle resting spots, areas where they have grazed on the coral reefs, and you may even have the opportunity to swim with these gentle creatures. Okinawa is also an area where huge schools of tuna gather, swimming around the many large underwater pinnacles where there is current flow and abundant food for these fish. The large schools of tuna and big eye jacks form underwater fish tornadoes which are a sight to behold.
