    Every angle of that deep-blue underwater world was picture-perfect!

    Seriously, the sea turtle was way too close lol. I was just swimming along when a turtle swam right in front of me—I got so hyped! The guide was really fun to be around, and it was an absolute blast! Being able to use the clean showers and changing rooms right after getting out of the water was just amazing.

    I received thorough instruction on the basics of skin diving, including how to hold my breath and dive deep. The beauty of the underwater world, known as “Amami Blue,” is truly exceptional, and swimming alongside the fish in the sunlit waters was a wonderful experience. I was very pleased that they sent me the high-quality video footage they took of me right away.

    The slow pace of island life in this traditional village, combined with the atmosphere of the sacred sites that have been carefully preserved, made my heart feel instantly lighter...

It completely healed the fatigue of everyday life... Thank you for such a wonderful time...

    It was my first time in Amami, and I was really nervous about driving on mountain roads and such, but the staff member who picked me up was so kind and patient in answering my questions about the routes that I felt at ease right away! The car itself was spotlessly clean and comfortable, and thanks to the reliable navigation system, I was able to navigate the narrow village roads with ease. Thanks to them, I had a wonderful time without any accidents. I’ll definitely use this service again next time!
