Recently, Kushimoto’s diving area is closed due to strong wind and waves.
But, we can dive in Kushimoto  today because the wind is getting weaker.

At last month, I always look for Nudibranch.
So, it seems that the scale of the size when  looking at creatures has shifted…haha

When I introduced  some Nudibranch, I wrote this Nudibranch is big!!
But, the guest don’t think the Nudibranch is big.

I used to look four like this size.

the size is about 5mm.
I have to fix my scale….

Then, I will show you beautiful seaweed.

This seaweed can only be seen in five area in Japan, including Kushimoto.
Don’t you think this is so beautiful?

You can see it from now to June.
Please come and see it.

There are many kind of creatures now.
So, you must be able to enjoy diving in Kushimoto.

I update some pics in our Instagram.

僕の「大」は「小さい」らしい

自分の大きさの尺度ずれてるみたいです(^^;)

久々のホーム。
いつぶりだろって位天気に泣かされ潜れませんでした・・・。

ダイバーにとっては天敵の時化も海全体にとっては大切な要素。
海に酸素を取り込み、深い場所の海水と浅場の海水を混ぜ、流れを生む事でサンゴなどの着生動物に餌を供給し・・・・

他にも、海の生物にとっては大切な要素なんです。
ちなみにこれは家で海水魚飼いたいな〜〜って思って調べた海水魚飼育の知識で得ました笑

多分大方合っているはずです(^^;)

さて、今日は久々に「普通」のガイドをさせていただきました。
今まではウミウシONLY。エビカニONLYなどの一点集中型ガイドだったので(笑)

その証拠にカスザメ!!

って言っても、ここ数週間小さいものを見続けたせいか・・・
一度華麗にスルーしましたが・・・(^^;)

そして、今日ゲストさんに言われたのが、
「小池君の大は普通に小さい」という言葉。

これが僕にとっての大。
ゲストさんにとってはそうではない!!!

どうやら大きさのネジが飛んだようです(^^;)尺度がずれているのを再認識〜〜でもこれはこれで個性として残していきま〜〜す(^^)/

僕にとってのウミウシのサイズはこれかな〜〜??
もっと視野広げないとですね〜〜。
ピカチュウはもはや特大レベルかもです。

ウミウシを探す合間に今日は、ジャパピグことハチジョウタツも発見!!
ウミウシ探しの副産物の代表格かもしれません。

季節の移り変わりを感じるケヤリソウも要所要所に生え始め、いよいよ春へと海変わっていきそうな予感です(^^)

春は出会いと別れの時期。
新たに訪れる生き物もいれば、いなくなる生き物もいます。

今年はこれからどんな生物がやってくるのか楽しみです!!!

ちなみに今日の出会いは・・・
エキジット直後にダイバー目がけてやってきたシマアジ。

ずっと僕とゲストさんの間を行ったり来たり。
人懐こい犬みたいで可愛かったです♪

コロナ渦ではありますが、ウミウシサーチ絶賛開催中です!!!
皆様のご参加お待ちしております♪

There was a strong wind in Kushimoto all day long.
So, It was a high wave at the diving point and it was a day when I couldn’t dive.

I will devote myself to the maintenance of equipment on these days.
Today, Cylinder maintenance was done.

Cylinders used in salt water will rust, so we regularly repaint  and maintain.

After finishing repainting, the cylinder looks like this.

The rusted part is gone, isn’t it a good feeling?
I really want to repaint the entire cylinder, but I didn’t have enough time to finish it…

The wind is getting weaker and I’m looking forward to diving in a beautiful tank.

There are many kinds of creatures in Kushimoto now.
I wonder if the wind is getting weaker quickly .

I will show you the underwater creatures in our Instagram .

Hi, this is Hirotaka from Nanki Seamans Club.
I’m sorry that I couldn’t write blog for a while.

We cannot dive in Kushimoto for four days due to strong wind and high waves.

But, The sea become calm today.
So,we can dive in our dive site for the first time in many years.

I dived with the guest who have never dived Kushimoto today.
So, I introduce the major creatures of Kushimoto.

At first, I introduced Scarbreast tuskfish.
I think it’s a representative fish of Kushimoto.

When the Scarbreast tuskfish find diver, he start chasing divers.
It’s like a dog chasing the owner and it’s cute(^^)

And, when I take launch with guest, I received a request to see sea turtle and Longtooth grouper. So I search for them in the second dive.

As a result, I can meet both of them.

The sea turtle is resting on the rock.
It was a sea turtle that never escaped even when diver was approaching.

So, we can take a photograph with the sea turtle easily.
The guest was very satisfied.

The forecast said the wind will get stronger tomorrow.
I guess we cannot dive in Kushimoto again….

We will go to Sue diving center tomorrow.

Today, I have been looking for Nudibranch.
I can find 14 species in a dive.

The variety of Nudibranch has increased since the w.temp reached around 18℃.

Some of Nudibranch I found today have never been seen before.


When I find it, I’m so happy (^^)
There are many Nudibranch I’ve never met in Kushimoto.
I want to find more.

There was also a shocking scene while searching for Nudibranch.
It is a scene where Scarus ovifrons is dead at the bottom of the water…

When I find it, I didn’t understand what it happened .
It may be a diver’s privilege to encounter such a scene.
This is also providence of nature, I think.

And then, there was a beautiful gammaridea today.

I cannot find the name in the picture book, dictionary and Internet.
If you know that name, please tell me.

Now, we can see so many kind of small  creatures in Kushimoto.
If you want to know the Japanese diving style,  there is no doubt that you can enjoy diving in Kushimoto now.

Since the number of guest is small, it is easy to practice taking photos.

We try to support you to take underwater photo.
Thank you.

Then, I can meet rare moray.
The color of their mouth is yellow.

But, this moray live in deep area. So if you want to see it, I recommend you to use enriched air Nitrox.

And, I can also find colorful Nudibranchia.

This Nudibranchia has three types of color that are purple, red and green.
I like this color the best.

Last, I found red shrimp.

It is called it “Umiushi-kakure-ebi” in japanese. It is called “Emperor Shrimp” in Eng.
The name means that the shrimp hide in Nudibranchia in Japanese.

The condition might be calm tomorrow .
I hope I can enjoy diving!!
