The  whether forecast said there is high waves and strong wind today.
But, there isn’t high waves today. So, we can dive in a whole day(^^)

The water temperature is getting warmer at the morning but  finally it is changes the same temperature as yesterday…

At the morning, we could see Japanese angel shark.

The shark is usually seen in winter season.
It looks like stingray, doesn’t it??

Due to the meandering of the Kuroshio Current, the underwater environment is also changing slightly.
The fish lives in east area few years ago, but it is seen in Kushimoto area recently.

Also, there is cute eel in bay side area.

The color of the mouth is beautiful(^^)
So, I like this fish!!!

It will be sunny tomorrow. And the sea condition become calm as well.
I guess we can dive easier  than today.

See you then(^^)/

We think the swell is getting bigger than yesterday.
But, it doesn’t  become bigger.

So, I can dive without stress for a day.

I teach the guest how to take a natural buoyancy underwater.
Finally, he can be good at taking natural buoyancy well.

When we make a safety stop, he can stay at the same depth without holding line.
I’m happy that he can get adjusting buoyancy skill.

As for underwater creature, we can see various one.

First, we can see puffer.
It is big puffer, the size is 50cm.
It swim slowly, so we can take a picture of it and hang out with it.

Then, small frog fish still stay at the same place.
It stay at the hole to escape the swell.

When it hade in the hole, it is difficult to find.

Others, we can see cute eel.
The mouth is yellow, so it is photogenic.

The forecast said the swell will be bigger tomorrow.
I hope we can also dive tomorrow .

See you then.
