530代Month of posting: 2023/11Three of us used the site this time! Unfortunately, the weather was bad, but Yakushima is fun even in the rain. The mist in the moss forest created a nice atmosphere! I was a beginner and I was worried about diving, but the guide was very kind and gave me a good explanation before diving. It was difficult to get out of my ears, but the guide kept pace with me and I was able to enjoy the dive without any worries! I was able to see sea turtles and fish, and it was a lot of fun! Thank you very much!
