Diving at Sado Island: May 1: Himezu, photo 1

This is Yabiki from the Niigata shop!

Today we headed to Himezu Beach on Sado

for fun diving and trial diving!

Unfortunately it was rainy,

but underwater it was very calm and conditions were good.

In trial diving, both guests were very relaxed right from the start,

and did really well with their underwater practice.

On the underwater tour, they had so much fun they forgot all about the rain!

And the fun diving team...

searched carefully and found it:

the star of this season, the dangouo (a tiny lumpsucker)!

Soothed by its tiny, adorable look,

we had a great time taking photos slowly and persistently!

“Fun even in the rain!”

That's the kind of day it turned out to be.

Thank you so much to everyone who joined us!

We look forward to diving with you again next time!

Note: The dangouo photos, taken at two sites (Kitakoura yesterday and Himezu today), were kindly provided by our guest I. Thank you very much, I!
