It was so good for diving today.
The visibility and w.temp are very good.

Now, the limited diving point which can be dived for two weeks is opening.

There are so big Sponge.

It is the biggest sponge in Kushimoto area.
But, one of the sponge disappeared due to typhoon .

Others, there are many colony of Tomato grouper.

This fish is the one of popular fish in Kushimoto.

Recently, the number of seaslug is increasing.

There are many kinds of seaslug in bayside area.

Almost seaslug is tiny.

So, it is hard to see with your eyes only(^^;) But the color is beautiful and it is so cute.

From now on, it will be a season which you can enjoy diving slowly.

It is easier to meet your expectations than summer season. But, the number of fish is the most in a year.

So, I recommend you to come to Kushimoto in this season.
See you then!!
