Snorkeling @ Cape Maeda / スノーケリング＠真栄田岬

* The English part is in the second half on this blog.

今日は真栄田岬（山田）でスノーケリングをしてきました。

ゲストは東京から来てくれた三縄さん一家。天気はいまいちでしたが気分は快晴。

あいにく風が強く水面もパシャ着いていて、希望の青の洞窟は行けませんでしたが、近場の山田でサンゴの養殖場やたくさんのクマノミを見て遊んできました。子供は元気ですねー。

みんな今日はありがとう。
沖縄の海はどうだったかな？透明で魚もいっぱい居て綺麗だったでしょ？次来る時こそ（来年？）青の洞窟に行こう！
まったねー。

Today we went to Cape Maeda for snorkeling.

The guests were Minawa-san family from Tokyo. They were here for the summer holiday.

Unfortunately, the weather didn't cooperate well with us so we couldn't make it to Blue cave. However, we saw lots of anemone fish including Nemo, coral planting area with lots of fishes, etc.

Kids were very into the Okinawan water.

Thanks everyone for today.

How was the sea and fishes in Okinawa? Beautiful, huh? Hope you guys enjoyed snorkeling today.

Enjoy the rest of your stay in Okinawa and we will try Blue Cave on your next visit!!

Bye bye

今日は万座までファンダイビングに行ってきました。
ゲストは昨日に続いてローレン、そしてアメリアかから来てくれたインディアとロン、の計３人でした。

今日の万座は大きいモノから小さいモノまでホントに盛りだくさん。
まずはモンハナシャコからスタート、そしてサメサメサメ！人気のカマストガリザメが３匹グルグルと来ては離れて、離れては戻って、を繰り返してました。圧巻の一言。
その他にもペアで泳ぐマダラトビエイや、小さなものではニシキフウライウオ、ウミウシ、ピグミーシーホース、ともう次から次へと出て来てくれ、みんな大満足の３ダイブになりました。

みんな今日はありがとう。
万座でのダイビング、どうだった？最高でしょ？気に入ってくれて良かったです。
残りの沖縄・日本での滞在も楽しんで、またいつか潜りに来てねー。

The sea condition was super good today and the visibility was over 30mtrs/90ft. That's what Kerama islands are famous for!

Anemone fishes.

This pink anemone fish got an interesting pattern around her face.

See? It has to be a white line but hers are dots.

And a green turtle showed up in the very end. Lucky!

We had nice three dives on a beautiful summer day.

Thanks Lauren and Lu for coming today.

Today we went to the deep wreck, "USS Emmons".

Emmons is the US warship from the World War 2 and stays at the depth of 40mtrs/130ft at the northern part of Okinawa. It is very popular among experienced divers.

The guests were Maria and Yong Ki on their last day. Let's wrap up your dive trip with Emmons!!

A perfect condition. Can't ask for anything more.

We did two dives to see its entire body.
A huge propeller at the stern.

A gigantic cannon.

A Japanese lesson during the interval.

A memorial plate.

A massive anchor.

We had absolutely great dives today.

Thanks Maria and Yong Ki for diving with us for several days.
How was Emmons? How was the diving in Okinawa? There are so many places to dive in Okinawa, huh? Hope you guys enjoyed diving here.
And there are still more sites to explore so please come back. Till then!

And we finished up a day with the best hamburger on the island. A 1.5hour wait was definitely worth.

今日は北部の沈船、USS エモンズで潜ってきました。
ゲストは今日が最終日の２人、マリアとヨンキでした。長い間ありがとねー。

今日は水面が鏡の様に穏やかな最高のコンディション。
そんな中、水深４０mの海底に横たわる巨大な第２次世界大戦の軍艦・エモンズを見に。全長は１００mにもなり、深度も深いので、２ダイブで全体を見てきました。

ホント何度行っても圧巻の一言。
碇、大砲，プロペラ、キール、どれをとっても巨大。圧倒されます。
途中にはマダラエイなんかも出て来てくれて、大満足の２ダイブになりました。

２人とも今日までありがとう。
エモンズ含めて沖縄でのダイビング、どうだった？気に入ってくれたみたいで良かったです。他にもまだまだオススメのポイントは沢山あるので、またぜひ遊びに来て。その時を楽しみにしてます。
ではでは。
