Akira took two divers  to the Keramas today – good viz dives with healthy coral reef… in addition to it, Akira is very good to find these tiny funny creatures in the water.

The one on the left is a tiny crab having a bag-pack trip with a sea squirt on his back.
Can you recognize the crab underneath?

Here is another one – a sponge crab.
This is again, a tiny crab having a sea sponge on his back.
Those crabs are about 1cm big.
Akira has very good eyes, don’t you think so?

Whales and good dives in the Keramas! (Okinawa)

Today, we saw three huge whales swimming with our boat for a bit.
The type of whales we commonly see here in Okinawa, is ‘Humpback Whales’. You can see their bent back on the picture!
I think that the three we saw today were two males fighting to get one female. They were huge – even from far away, we could here their blowing.
Anyway, after enjoying whale watching, we headed to our favorite dive sites in the Kerama Islands.

At Toma, Miho’s group found many types of cleaner shrimps, as well as our favorite garden eels, pink leaf fish, and many gobies.

Nozaki had some mild currents, which showed all the chromis and purple queens (there are thousands of them, literallly) very beautifully.

This year’s first Kerama Diving

Hi everyone,

Today, we made it to the Kerama Islands for the first time this year.

*** Today’s Dives ***
Kerama Islands
1. Twin Rocks (Kuroshima North)
2. Toma (Zamami Island)
3. Ariga South (Tokashiki Island) – Drift Dive
Objective: Fun Dives
Weather: Flat
Air: 19C (66.2F)
Water: 22C (71.6F)
Suites: 5mm one piece + hood

We started off at our favorite Twin Rocks at the Kuroshima Island.
We were lucky today, for that Twin Rocks are not usually divable in winter, because of north wind – It’s a summer dive spot.
After enjoying lots of anthies swimming like orange flowers, we went diving around the big pinnacle, to find sharks and big tunas.

We also found this cute sponge crub sitting on a rock. You can enjoy wide- to macro, at this dive spot.
We moved to Zamami, and enjoyed macro photo diving checking out garden eels, pink leaf fish, and lots of cleaner shrimps.
Then, we moved back to Tokashiki, and did drift diving over there. Turtles, beautiful sea fans and many many fusiliers.
