The effect of typhoon was still same as yesterday.
The visibility is about 5~8m.

In this case, we usually try to find macro creatures.
There are so many tiny nudibranch now.

The size is about 5mm.
It is so cute(^^)

And we was able to see ghost pipe fish.

They are staying at the same place.
I hope they are staying at the same place for a long time.

Others, there are colorful fishes in bay side dive point.

It is so beautiful!!
i want everyone to see them.

I believe the surge will be lower than today.
We will be able to dive easier than today, I guess.

See you then!!!

The sea condition is still rough….
But we can dive in a whole day.

I was surprised that the water temperature is getting lower.
It is 20 degree today(^^;)

Today’s guest likes to see tiny underwater creatures.
So, I show them tiny nudibranchs so much.

Can you find the nudibranch in this picture ??
The size is about 0.5mm.
When I can find underwater creatures like this size, I’m so happy!!!

Recently, the number of Striped butterfly fish is increasing.

The color is so beautiful(^^)

Some Cardinalfish protect their eggs in their mouth.
It is difficult to observe with you eyes. I recommend you to use compact camera.

The water temperature changes from day to day, which makes it hard for the fish.

I hope the water temperature is warmer than today.
See you then(^^)/

Singaporean guest came to our shop today!!
It’s first time to dive in Japan.

So, I showed him various of underwater creatures today.
This angel fish lives in the coast around Honshu.

The color is beautiful!! So, It is expensive fish as aquarium.
But, don’t catch it….haha

And I introduce tiny sea sulg.
