Fun Diving
The Fun Diving program is designed for those who are already certified in scuba diving. Enjoy a full-day dive cruise on our luxury diving cruiser Blue Swan.
Dive points each day are decided by our boat captain based on the sea condition and our guests’ skill level. Requests are accommodated as much as possible.
Lunch will be served on the boat after the morning dives. We will anchor the boat in a quiet area for the lunch break. If you have any food allergies or restrictions, please let us know in advance.
If you will be staying around the city area, transportation will be included in our service. If you will be driving, there will be free parking available at the port.
After returning to the port, we will take you to our shop to log your dives and check out. If you do not need to log your dives, you can check out on the boat.

Rentals
If you have your own gear, we recommend bringing that, as divers tend to be most comfortable in their personal gear. For those who do not have their own gear, or want to travel light, we have equipment rentals.
Subpar or damaged gear can impair the quality of a diving experience, but fear not; at Prime Scuba Ishigaki, we make sure that our rental gear is reasonably new and in good shape so that you can fully enjoy your diving experience.
We have gears in a variety of sizes, so please make sure to let us know your height, weight, and shoe size when making your reservation, and we will prepare the appropriate gear for you. Also, please inform our staff if you need a mask with the lens.
If you want to try underwater photography, we have rental cameras with housing. The service comes with a take-home 4GB SD memory card.
