I searched for sea slug today.
There are various of sea slug in Bayside dive point.

In spring, the number of Doris species  is getting more.
So, I could find many kinds of Doris species.

Others, I can find other sea slugs as well.
This is the sea slug that I was most happy to find.

It’s tiny. The sea slug is yellow one.
The size is about 2mm, I guess.

When I found it, I’m so happy.

Then, I’m happy to find this sea slug as well.

I can find this sea slug after a long time(^^)
The color is so beautiful!!

Today, we enjoyed taking  underwater  pictures .

Today’s guest said that he had never seen this shrimp.

The shrimp is called “Laomenes cornutus”.
It’s rare shrimp in Kushimoto.

And he also favorites “Short-bodied pipe fish”.

There are beautiful seaweed behind this fish.
I like this picture (^^)

Then, I joined the group that is called ” Nudibranch  lovers’ association”.
The group have five members. And the theme of this group is searching  many Nudibranchs in Kushimoto area.

So, I try to look for more Nudibranchs as much as I can.

I wanna look for Nudibranch with you.

After the effects of  COVID-19 have diminished , I will do my best  guests from overseas to enjoy diving in Kushimoto!!!

So, If you will be able to visit Japan, please come and visit our shop!!
You can spend good time I think.
