About This Tour
If you wish, you can also do the "Standard 1-Dive Course" twice. You will return to the shore after each dive for a break before doing the second dive. (30 minutes x 2 dives) Since we return to the shore each time, we cannot go far offshore, but the 2-dive course might be good for those who want to take breaks between dives. Note: The main purpose of this course is the underwater breathing experience, and because the dive time per dive 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.
