It was my first dive after typhoon No.4 passed.
When the typhoon was coming, the visibility is so worse…. It is 1m~3m.

But, Today, the visibility and w.temp is restoring(^^)

The w.temp is about 23 degree. and the visibility is 10m.
You can dive in a wet suit without stress.

I went to research dive in afternoon.
We can meet a school of Banded boar fish.

We can be getting closer. Because they don’t have any wariness.
They looks like a pet dogs (^^)

The number of goby is increasing recently.
There are many kinds of goby in Bizen.

In the end of research dive, I found that situation.

Whip coral goby and a crab seemed to be good friends and were close to each other.

Sometimes there were situations where they were having a conversation .

And then, Many Nudibranch are still living .

Now, we can enjoy finding and observing small or tiny creatures.

It should be easier to observe big fish in a little more time.
It’s still free on weekdays, so please come and visit us.

Thank you for reading.

The visibility of the first dive is getting better.
But, at second dive, a surge is getting stronger and stronger.

It’s hard to stay at the same place.
Our body move from 2m to 5m.

It seems like roller coaster….(^^;)
Also, the visibility become so worse. That is about 1m~3m.

When it is not good, it is the best way to hang out with small creatures.

Today, we can meet many small creatures.

First one is Nudibranch. the size is 5mm.
It is so tiny.

Candy crab hold coral for protecting being skipped.
The situation is so beautiful (^^)

Don’t you think so?

We can also meet a school of Banded boar fish.But we cannot take a pics of it due to strong surge.

I wish I had good visibility.
This pic is that the guest took it in past.

Many foreign guest come to our shop in this weekend.
I’m happy many foreign guest to come to our shop.

※Attention

The dive site of Kushimoto is closed due to the approaching typhoon.
I guess diving will be available on Friday.

台風のうねり到来

ジェットコースターのような海中(^^;)

透明度がある意味で仕上がっている状態でスタートした週末。
翌日の今日はどうなっているのか??ドキドキしながら入ってみると透明度回復!?

幸先いいスタートに見えました〜〜

・・・・・・・・・が

2本目・・・自然の洗礼が待ち受けていました・・・笑
うねりが一気にパワーアップ!!!!

久々に耐えられないうねりが到来し、1分も立たずに透明度が1m以下に・・・・汗
アドレナリン全開のダイビングでした笑

そんな中でもブレないのが、僕。
うねりの中でも5mmサイズを負けずにご紹介させていただきました(^^)

うねりの中でも飛ばされずにくっついているのがすごい。
これを紹介した時のゲストさんのリアクションが面白かった〜〜。
爆笑してました!!
そりゃそうか、ここで?!ってなりますよね〜〜。

そして、もうひとつのマイクロサイズがナカソネカニダマシ。

大きさ5mm以下でした。
透明度が悪い時はマクロに限ります。だって上ほとんど見えないから〜〜。

2本目は撮影できない程のうねりのため、ただただ、海とうねりを楽しんだ1本となりました。

久々にやばいと思ったうねりを経験。
このうねりが徐々に上がってくる予報のため、明日からしばらくの間海はクローズとさせていただきます。

木曜日にはうねりが落ちるかな〜〜??(^^;)

ハゼ攻めてきました!!

今日はハゼエリアを攻めてきました!!

最近すっかりミクロが定着している僕。
今日はミクロを封印(?)してハゼエリアで遊んできました。

天気は生憎でしたが、透明度も良くストレスフリーで潜れました〜〜(^^)
水温は相変わらずなのでハゼもまだシャイではありますが、いろいろな種類が見つかりました!!

最初は、ホタテツノハゼSP-3。

シャイすぎてコンデジだとこれが限界・・・・汗
あと1度水温が上がってくれたらな〜〜(><)

その後は以前から観察しているホタテツノハゼ。

だんだんダイバーに慣れてきたのか・・・ゲストさんは1m以内まで寄っていました!!
ゲストさんのハゼによる技術も高いので、ハゼの慣れ具合は未だに不明ですが・・・笑

この1種類を見に行く道中には新たな発見も。

最初は初めての場所でヒレナガネジリンボウを発見!!
今年はヒレナガネジリンボウ多いみたいです。

さらに、ネジリンボウも見つかりました。
ハゼエリア徐々に盛り上がってきているようですね。

こんな感じでハゼエリアも楽しくなってきて海の中もシーズンに合わせていよいよ盛り上がってきている様子です♪

最初にミクロ封印と言いましたが、よく考えたらミクロ紹介していました笑
どんなミクロかというと・・・・・

直径3mmのジョーフィッシュyg。
やっぱり無意識にミクロを探しているようです(^^;)

さて、明日も天気はイマイチですが、海は静かそう!!
今日はこれから調査でナイトに行く予定。

クマノミのハッチアウトも去る事ながらイシモチのハッチアウトの調査もしてこようと思います。

それでは〜〜。
