- Frequently asked questions about this plan
-
Q. What if the weather is bad?
In the case of the ocean, wind and wave height have a greater impact than rain. The height of the waves at the destination and the height of the waves on the route to and from that destination will have an effect.
As a rule of thumb, if either of these waves reaches 3 meters, it will be impossible to sail.
We communicate with everyone the day before the event, along with the sea conditions and the forecast.Q. Are shower/changing rooms available?Due to the Corona measures, some facilities such as showers and changing rooms are not available. Water is available on the ship, and guests are requested to bathe in it after they finish and return to their accommodations.
Q. What is the Churaumi Cooperation Fund?The three fishermen's cooperatives and diving businesses in Miyakojima City, through mutual understanding and cooperation, aim to contribute to the conservation of the marine environment around Miyakojima City, the promotion of sightseeing diving business and fishery industry, and the development of the region.
The "Agreement on the Harmonious Use of the Sea Surface in the Miyako Region" has been concluded.
In order to achieve these objectives, we ask for 500 yen per person per day from those who enjoy diving in the waters around Miyakojima City as "Churaumi Cooperation Money".Q. I heard that I may not be able to participate in the menu due to illness, injury, or my physical condition that day.Please consult your doctor in advance if you are currently visiting a hospital or taking medication on a regular basis.
It is also important to take care of yourself regarding your physical condition on the day of the event. In addition to injuries and colds, lack of sleep and hangovers are also dangerous, and we reserve the right to refuse participation.
We will perform a medical history check of your health condition before participating in the menu, but this is only a self-report. We are basically unable to make a judgment on medical matters, so please consult your doctor in advance if you have any concerns. - word of mouth

540代Month of posting: 2024/01The boat diving experience at Yaebise was fantastic! The beautiful coral reefs of the Yaebigase are just like a natural aquarium, and the clarity of the water was impressive. The course was designed for beginners, so I was able to participate without any worries even though I had not taken a diving course. The guides were very kind and fully supported me even though I am not a good swimmer. The one-on-one diving experience was especially wonderful. I also enjoyed snorkeling, which I joined with my friends and made good memories. They guided us through the waters around the Yaebise and we had a great time. The fee is reasonable and cosy. However, you need to pay attention to the cancellation policy, it may be difficult to cancel due to weather or other reasons. I would highly recommend this plan to anyone who is considering diving in the Yaebise!
