The swell due to typhoon no.11 arrived at our dive site.
But, we can dive in bay side area today.

There are  various of underwater creatures in bay side dive point.
The w.temp is from 24 to 28. I feel cold in the end of dive.
But, today’s guest coming from North America said that they didn’t feel cold at all.

We have been able to see swallow batfish at he same place.
They usually stay at 5m. So, we can see with making a safety stop.

Also, there are many fishes in bay side dive point.

It is very powerful!!
They are  suddenly disappeared, so whether you can see them or not may depend on your luck.

Of course, there are  various macro creatures as well.

Today, we can see Ornate ghost fish.

It is good at hiding at seaweed.
So, it is difficult to find it.

Also, this fish is good at hiding.
It is called “Sea moth” or “Little dragonfish” in English.

The body shape is so unique.
You may not forget if you see it at once.

It’s the weekend starting tomorrow .
Many guest will come to our shop.

I hope the swell is getting lower than today.

See you then(^^)/
