Incredible Experience!!!

5.00What an amazing experience! My husband and I went for our wedding anniversary and it was perfect. Our guide was very knowledgeable and super patient with us beginners. He made sure we were comfortable in the water and even brought hot tea for after each dive! The wildlife was incredible! There was even one location where we saw thousands of fish swimming above us! After the dives, we went back to the Ocean Lounge and enjoyed hot showers before our delicious lunch. The food was all locally sourced and prepared by our guide. The food and the view could not have been better! It was a fantastic experience…highly recommended!
The highlight of my Japan trip

5.00I spent a month and a half traveling all over Japan, and scuba diving in Okinawa was hands down the highlight of the entire trip. Toshi was an amazing guide, clear, patient, and genuinely passionate. He walked me through the gear, underwater signals, and the essentials of diving, and once we were in the water his teaching style was perfect. I always felt safe, comfortable, and able to explore at my own pace. It was a cloudy day but visibility was impressive. We saw eels, sea snakes, squid, colorful fish, a lobster, and a massive school of fish under the bridge that looked straight out of a movie. The post dive meal was the perfect finish to an already incredible experience, delicious and exactly what you want after being out in the water. If you’re in Okinawa, I 100% recommend diving with Ocean Lounge. Toshi, thanks for the amazing dives, hope I can come back and do it again. 🤙
Excellent!

5.00Toshi is an incredible guide. It was my first time diving and I was extremely nervous. He gave me all of the information I needed, was utterly patient and encouraging, and is just a kind and relaxed person all around. I’m so grateful for this gracious help which has got me excited to keep learning! Thank you so much, Toshi, from Eric and Miriam
Unforgettable Dive Experience with Toshi in Motobu, Okinawa!

5.00Diving with Toshi was nothing short of incredible! From the moment we met him, his warm, friendly energy made us feel right at home. His professionalism and deep knowledge of the ocean around Motobu gave us total confidence, and his passion for diving was contagious. Toshi’s pre-dive briefing was clear and thorough, making sure every diver knew exactly what to expect. Once underwater, he guided us with an expert eye—pointing out fascinating marine life we never would have spotted on our own. What made the day truly special was Toshi’s personal touch—checking in often, making sure we were comfortable. His calm, reassuring presence made the dive both safe and unforgettable. If you’re diving in Okinawa, do yourself a favor and book with Toshi. You’ll come away with stunning memories, amazing photos, and a whole new appreciation for the beauty of the sea. Also, he made us some delicious garlic fried rice for our lunch afterwards!
Highlight of our trip to Okinawa!

5.00This was by far one of the best tours we have done together. Our tour guide spoke fluent English and was very helpful, patient, encouraging, and knowledgeable both about scuba but also about Japan, Okinawa, and was very helpful to get us to and from the tour afterwards. Lunch was delicious and the cafe where you eat has gorgeous views of the ocean and where we went scuba diving. While diving, our guide was right with us and knew exactly what he was doing and made us feel safe. Highly recommend!
Nago Diving Joy. Toshi the instructor was so good.

5.00I had an amazing experience on this tour —my first time diving, and thanks to Toshi, it couldn’t have gone better. He was a fantastic guide and made me feel completely safe and confident underwater. The marine life and coral were stunning. Even saw a turtle. To top it all off, the Wagyu lunch was delicious - such a perfect way to end the adventure. Highly recommended for any beginners looking for a supportive and memorable first dive in Okinawa!
