2 amazing dives with Teera Scuba - Did 2 amazing dives with my partner. I'm always impressed by the kindness and dedication of the diving staff. Hisashi (the best scuba diving instructor in the world) was fantastic. I'm so glad I got to see one of my favorite animals: the cuttlefish!

Outstanding instructor with excellent command of English - Once a professional working on the Japanese mainland, Hisashi is an excellent instructor who was able to deliver detailed guidance with patience and clarity. He had the style of a university lecturer. He could cut through complexity to focus on what really matters in managing equalisation, breathing, buoyancy, etc. Yet he could also be methodically comprehensive, not missing a detail. Hisashi is the perfect instructor for a novice.

A beautiful experience - Hisashi was very pedagogical, despite our first apprehension diving he was always listening to us, reassuring and benevolent! The water was not so cold at that time, we were in the small care with oversuits, hot tea and cupcakes! The underwater landscapes, fauna and flora were beautiful! An amazing experience!

Great. - Very nice discovery of the seabed of Okinawa with Hisashi, a mentor with little care.

First and Best Dive. - It’ll be hard to have an experience that tops this. Was walked through everything so felt safe while diving, went to fish filled spots, even saw turtles! Pictures came out great too. Would recommend to anyone.

Fabulous family diving trip - Hisashi-San was a super experienced, safe and considerate instructor. He made us delicious iced tea, cut pineapple and local pastries for the boat ride. We felt 100% taken care of and saw beautiful coral and fish. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to try scuba diving for the first time.

Would Go Again! - Hisashi-san was very patient and kind, and he even prepared snacks for us. It was a whole different world underwater, and we got the chance to see a sea turtle resting in place.

Great time! - This was my boyfriends and I first time diving. Our instructor (forgot his name) was really good! He spoke just enough English to be able to understand. The trip was about 4 hours long, he gave me and my boyfriend tea and offered snacks throughout the trip. He was very nice throughout. We started the trip with him explaining the importance of the diving and the tanks we were breathing from. He was very clear about instructions and did not make it difficult. He provided all the gear - wet suit, tank, gloves, shoes, flippers and also has storage for any items you bring on board. We went to 2 different locations diving for about 30 minutes each so about an hour underwater. He goes over every location we went to before diving and made a clear understanding of how deep we were going and around what areas. We got a nice boat ride along with the diving which was nice. He guided us through the water and took multiple photos of us as well. We saw many coral and fish. Both dives were such a good time and he does allow you to bring go pro. He offers a bathroom, changing room, and showers after if needed. Overall, my boyfriend and I had a great time and we’d definitely recommend if you have never dived before.

Fantastic personal diving experience - We had a fantastic time diving with Hisashi. We went to two beatiful dive spots and saw lots of coral and fish. Hisashi guided us through carefully and eased my nerves about diving, taking photos which he shared later. He also kindly picked us up and dropped us back to our hotel and provided some tea and snacks on the boat!

Unprofessional and Racist - I strongly advise against this dive shop due to a highly discriminatory and unprofessional experience. Although two of us are experienced divers, the instructor barred us from continuing after the trial, citing our air consumption. His teaching style was unclear, condescending, and felt more like scolding than instruction. Worst of all, he was openly racist, explicitly telling my friend that 'Indians cannot dive!' Scuba diving requires trust in your instructor, and we felt completely unsafe. Furthermore, their prices are higher than top-tier shops in Okinawa, yet the dive site had minimal marine life—far worse than what I saw recently in Sri Lanka. Avoid this place
