What To Expect
【Dive sites】 Our dive sites are on nearby islands Minna and Sesoko, just a 15 minute boat ride from the local port. Minna Island has multiple dive sites along its north side, and offers beautiful coral reefs at shallow depth (～30ft) filled with colorful animals like anenomefish, eagle rays, trevally, pipefish, and much more. If you head deeper from the reefs, distinctive white sandy bottom spreads - home to numerous garden eels, with isolated coral reefs at 80ft - home to school of snappers and lionfish. Sesoko Island offers spectacular underwater landscapes - tunnels, caverns, and swim-throughs. Wildlife includes white-tip reef sharks, turtles, sea snakes, moray eels, octopus, nudibranchs, and much more! 【Wagyu lunch】 After your dives, relax at our ocean-view café for a local BBQ lunch. Wagyu lunch consists of a light course meal using a hotplate. 4-5 different parts of Motobu beef (between 300-400g/person) is served, along with local Agu pork. Local, farm-to-table vegetables include bell peppers, eggplant, shiitake mushrooms, and other seasonal items. Indoor/outdoor seating with ocean views and a foot bath are available to you.

5.00It was wonderful! My partner and I had so much fun and were lucky that there were only two of us with the tour guide. He was also super competent, funny and friendly. The food was also awesome afterwards with beautiful views of the jungle nature of Okinawa! So if you want to go diving with or without a diving license: absolutely recommended! Plus: The guide takes photos & videos during both dives!
Best Diving Experience in Motobu

5.00Visited this place with my family, and we had a wonderful experience with Ocean Lounge! Toshi was very thorough with preparing us for the dives and ensured that we are well-fitted for the cold waters. We rescheduled to another day with the advice from the staff as the weather for our initial booking day was cloudy and we had no regrets! The water was very clear and calm and we were able to see so many sea creatures. Toshi was knowledgeable and passionate and we were able to enjoy the experience because of him! The facilities were also nice with heated showers and ample space for changing. We also enjoyed the Wagyu Lunch, with meat sourced for local butchers and vegetables from local farmers. We highly recommend visiting and booking with Ocean Lounge, truly the highlight of our trip.
Literally the best Scuba experience!

5.00We went in October 2025 and oh my goodness. I’m terrible at writing reviews, but I have thought so much about this dive experience the last 5 months that I just cannot go without writing a review for this excursion. My husband and I have been on several uncertified dives (St Martin. Cozumel, Hawaii twice) and this particular one in Okinawa was by far the BEST dive experience! We saw way more here than any of our other dives. The instructor (I think his name was Toshi) was also incredible! And he took really, really great photos of us during the experience which have been so fun to look back on. These are seriously our best scuba pictures. So clear, some with turtles, and the coral is actually pretty in the photos. So patient, kind, and prepped the greatest lunch for us. Also the view while eating lunch you cannot beat. It was so convenient that Toshi also picked us up from our hotel and dropped us off back at the hotel. That was a huge plus. He was so easy and fun to talk to as well. No part of was awkward, even it just being my husband and I and Toshi. We have recommended this experience to so many friends and family once we got back to the states that I figured I really should just write a review and recommend to the whole world. Wish words did this experience justice. We would go back to Okinawa for literally just this scuba experience again. If you don’t choose this excursion you will surely miss out. It was 100% worth the money. You will not find a cooler experience than this one!
100% worth it, would do again

5.00This is a must do!! Toshi was amazingly calm and had great patience with us as forst timers. We felt safe and in control the whole time which meant we could just focus on enjoying the amazing undersea world around us. Truly greatful for the great equipment they had and the time taken to instruct us. It was all very easy once in the water. The meal afterwards was amazing and so was the view. Will be doing this again in our home country for sure! But hope to be back one day to do again. We got lucky and had a private session with him loved it all.
Great first time diving...

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!

5.00If you’re in Okinawa, this is what to do. I have been on over 100 dives and this was one of the most fun and unique dive experiences I’ve ever had. Our dive master, Toshi was incredibly kind and helpful and the dives were incredible!
