What people are saying about Okinawa

It was a wonderfull experience. Crystal clear water gorgeous coral reef and beautiful marine life. The dive instructor was very friendly and kind and always smiling they even helped be get back back my camera from the sea floor which accidentally fell while i took a jump from the boat. Overall five star experience for beginner like me. If possible I hope to get back next year aswell.

Despite the initial disorganisation at the rental shop, the boat tour was amazing. The staff was well prepared; Tyler, the instructor who speaks English, was incredibly kind and took wonderful pictures of us snorkelling. The lunch was delicious, and the sea was just breathtaking. We saw plenty of fish and even turtles!!! Next time in Naha I’d choose this tour again.

Great fun, great guides and great variety. The diving was great, the fish were amazing. The snorkeling was also fun ( even in January it wasn’t too cold!) and being in the boat was also nice. I’d recommend it. Even tough it is kind of expensive

Pick up from hotel, nice staff, clear instructions, lot of time for snorkeling and enough time for diving. I'm happy I did it. Great experience. Plus underwater pictures. Amazing.

The boat ride was fun, the lunch was very tasty, the hot showers felt great and the snorkeling was really good.
