5.00I have snorkeled many times all over this world but this was my first diving experience. I cannot recommend it enough. Jun-San was the perfect guide and all the staff were kind and helpful. Even though my Japanese is quite limited, it was no problem. I recommend this for first time divers that want to get a feel and be out of the water my the time your ears are slightly uncomfortable. Jun-San took his time to explain everything without a sense of rushing. It was scary for about three minutes and then it was absolutely magical! Thanks all!
Its good

5.00Our dive guide Kana was incredible. She was so patient, funny and highly skilled! My friend has never been diving before and I have PADI open water, so I really wanted her to give it a go and see how incredible diving can be. We couldn't have picked a better company or dive site for a beginner experience. It was easy enough despite some current, and the site itself was absolutely teeming with wildlife and coral. Despite lots of divers and snorkellers it was easy to navigate and we had no issues. My friend confidently cleared her mask and dealt with a bouyancy issue like a seasoned professional and part of that was due to our amazing guide's clear instructions. Thank you to the team at Bookenjima Ona Okinawa! We loved every moment.
Bokenjima crew is da best👌🏼🫶🏼🤙🏼💯

5.00Liko was absolutely a wonderful Dive Master and Photo/Videographer! Katcha was attentive, so in tune with my level in the water. We felt absolutely safe & cared for by their whole crew. They are pros, well equipped and clean. A priceless, memorable experience reasonably priced. Would highly recommend! Must add discovery dive or snorkel to your bucket list! Look no where else!!!

5.00I have a CMAS license, but I was worried about diving after more than a decade, so I applied for experience diving instead of fun diving. It was hectic at first, but thanks to the gentle support of the guide, I was able to gradually regain my senses. The blue cave looked so beautiful from the water, it was different from the photo. I would like to visit Blue Cave again when I go to Okinawa. The guides are also very kind and lovely, and I hope to ask for another one from Bokenjima-san next time. Thank you very much for this.
Great diving experience!

5.00Blue hole was closed due to weather conditions. But the dive shop gave us an option to either get a full refund or go for diving to another location. We went to the clown fish sanctuary and it was fantastic. Very friendly dive guide, good quality equipment, superb visibility and beautiful marine life. This tour is strongly recommended for any diving enthusiast. Even if you have not experienced diving before, this would be a very good way to get introduced to it.
Staff was my diver partner. I was rusty but he coached me through it.

5.00They were very patient and informative! It was too windy to do the blue cave so they offered another spot. Maybe a few too many pictures underwater, but overall a great experience!
Amazing experience!
