- My mother was diving for the first time, and I wasn't sure if she could do it, but we couldn't choose how many dives each person would do.
- Once it was clear she couldn't dive, I wanted her to be allowed to join the snorkeling group.
- My mother's payment for one dive was wasted, and I couldn't use it for my three dives.
- The return boat was too fast, and a basket full of equipment moved, pinching my legs between the bench and the basket, causing an injury.
- I shouted that it hurt, and even though someone must have seen it, no one helped.
- At that time, there was a mark, and later it swelled.

Reply from the operator
Thank you very much for participating in the Kerama Islands diving tour organized by Joy Create Okinawa. We are currently addressing your injury, so we appreciate your continued understanding. We sincerely apologize for the boat's rocking due to the wind direction and tidal currents that day. We operated the boat at a reduced speed compared to normal. It seems that the waves caused the boat to sway. Thank you for your continued understanding regarding your injury.ジョイクリエイト沖縄が開催する慶良間諸島ダイビングツアーにご参加いただきまして、まことにありがとうございます。その後、お怪我にたいしてはこちらも対応中ですので引き続きよろしくお願いいたします。また、その日の風向きおよび潮の流れにより船が揺れましたこと心よりお詫び申し上げます。速度は通常よりは出力を下げて運航しておりました。どうしても波のせいで船がゆれてしまったようです。それでは引き続きお怪我についてはよろしくお願いいたします。

A second challenge after 35 years.

This time, I challenged myself to diving for the first time in 35 years as a celebration of my 60th birthday. The weather wasn't great, and the boat was rocking, which made me quite anxious, but thanks to the staff's quick guidance and instructions, I was able to dive safely. Amid the excitement and nervousness, I truly enjoyed swimming in the beautiful ocean after such a long time. I had a wonderful experience touching the clownfish playing among the sea anemones. Thank you very much.今回還暦の記念に35年ぶりのダイビングを挑戦しました。天候もあまり良くなく、船も揺れて、いろんな不安もありましたが、スタッフの方々のテキパキとした誘導や指示より安全に行うことができました。ドキドキワクワクの中、ほんとに久しぶりに海の中の素敵な遊泳を楽しむことができました。
イソギンチャクの中で遊んでいるクマノミに触れたりと素敵な経験ができました。ありがとうございました。

They kindly accommodated my sudden request for an additional fun dive. Since it had been a while since my last dive, they even arranged for an instructor to ensure I could dive at a comfortable pace. I forgot to ask for their name, but I felt safe while diving. Thank you!急なファンダイブ追加にも快く対応いただきました。久しぶりのダイビングだったので、ゆっくり潜れるようにわざわざインストラクターさんを付けて下さいました。お名前を伺うのを忘れてしまいましたが安心して潜れました。ありがとう。

Thank you very much for the one-day boat experience diving and snorkeling in Kerama. I truly enjoyed it and had a wonderful time. I was also very happy to see a sea turtle. I had some anxiety since it had been a while since my last dive, but the staff provided thorough guidance, allowing me to enjoy it with peace of mind. Furthermore, the hayashi rice and shaved ice we had for lunch were exquisite! If there’s another opportunity, I would love to do it again.慶良間での1日ボート体験ダイビング&シュノーケリングでは大変お世話になりました。
本当に満喫できて、楽しい時間を過ごすことができました。そして海ガメにも逢えて、とても嬉しかったです。

さらに、お昼にいただいたハヤシライスとかき氷は絶品でした!
