There are various of macro underwater creatures now.
So, we can enjoy diving!!!

We can see many frog fishes in bayside dive point.

You can see different size.
If you like tiny one, you will be able to see 5mm frog fish.

Have you ever seen this shrimp??

It is tiny. the size is about 2mm haha
It is hard to see it with your eyes.
I belive it’s the best to use digital camera to see its details.

In this year, the number of Ghost pipe fish is more than usual.

If you want to see them, you will be able to see 5~7 fishes in a day lol

I cannot research if the number of nudibranchs is getting more, but I guess there are also many nudibranchs.

I have to research for nudibranch as soon as possible.

After this term, the number of guest become fewer than summer.
You can try drysuit diving in your pace. And you can dive in small group.

The water temperature is still 23 degrees.
So, you can dive without feeling cold if you wear drysuit or 5mm wetsuit and inner vest.

I hope you will come to Kushimoto in this term.

See you then(^^)/

The water temperature is about 18 degree.

So, I recommend you to use dry suit now.
In spring season, there are many beautiful seaweed in Kushimoto area.

Sometimes, sea slug is staying near the seaweed.
It is called “Sporochnus dotyi Brostoff”.

It’s so beautiful, so many Japanese diver like it.

I want to show you this seaweed.
It is also beautiful.

In this season, this seaweed is spawning sometimes.
If you want to observe it,  it is better to bring digital camera because it’s tiny.

This seaslug looks like dog or rabbits, doesn’t it?
She has eyes, so the face is so cute(^^)

We will enjoy diving tomorrow as well.
I hope we can observe rare underwater creature.

The number of the guest from overseas is increasing from March.
I’m happy many foreign guest to come our shop.

When you come to Japan, please plan to come to Kushimoto!!

See you then(^^)/
