Okinawa Blue Experience | A complete guide to amazing snorkeling and diving in the Blue Cave!

#DomesticTravelTactics If you want to enjoy the ocean in Okinawa, you can't miss the "Blue Cave" on the main island! It's very popular as a beginner-friendly spot with no worries about seasickness! [What is the Blue Cave?] • Location: Cape Maeda in Onna Village, Okinawa main island • Features: A "natural blue cave" that can be accessed without a boat, only found in Okinawa and Italy! • Depth: Maximum 18m, perfect for beginners to dive and snorkel • Visibility: You're sure to be soothed by the amazingly clear seawater and colorful tropical fish and coral reefs! [Experience Flow] 1⃣ Slowly get used to the ocean by snorkeling Start in shallow waters with the support of an instructor. You'll be taught how to use the equipment carefully, so you can rest assured! 2⃣ Head to the mysterious blue cave! When you enter the cave... a fantastic fluorescent blue world spreads out before your eyes! The sunlight shines into the water, creating a spectacular view that looks as if the light is glowing underwater. A moving spot that is sure to look great in photos! 3⃣ After leaving the cave, you can also experience feeding the fish! If you hold food, a large number of colorful fish will gather in front of you! It's a fun and engrossing time♪ Trivia: It is said that the "big-eyed red fish" in the Blue Cave was the model for the fish that appears in the Ghibli movie "Ponyo"! [Points to note] ⚠️ Please pay attention to the following points to enjoy and safely dive! 1⃣ Never touch the coral! → Touching it with your hands, feet, knees, etc. will injure you and damage the coral. 2⃣ Keep a distance from other people! → Check your surroundings as you move forward and be careful not to bump into them. 3⃣ What to do if water gets into your mask → Raise your face 45 degrees, hold the top of the mask with the index fingers of both hands, make a small gap at the bottom with your thumbs, inhale through your mouth, and blow through your nose to get the water out! 4⃣ Do not fly within 18 hours after diving! → Because nitrogen remains in your body, it is recommended that you wait until the next day before flying back! 【Summary】 • Easy to get to from the main island! • No seasickness, so it's great for beginners. • Enjoy the mysterious blue whether you're snorkeling or diving! • Okinawa's best spot for both Instagram-worthy and relaxing! "You should see the real blue at least once" On your next trip to Okinawa, be sure to experience the moving experience of the Blue Cave!
