Half day · No experience
Your first breath-hold, held gently.
A half-day introduction in a pool or a calm, shallow bay. You’ll learn how your breath actually works, hold it longer than you thought you could, and make your first relaxed dives to around 5 m. No experience needed — most guests arrive never having tried.
Meet at the site, paperwork, and a relaxed briefing over tea.
Breathing basics on land — how your body uses oxygen, and why relaxation beats effort.
Two hours in confined water: guided breath-holds, duck dives and your first depth, one-on-one with your instructor.
Photos, questions, and how to continue to AIDA2 if the ocean got you.
Rental sizes are limited: tell us your height, weight and foot size when booking. If we can’t fit you, we arrange rental from a partner shop at cost. Okinawa site and boat fees vary by location — ask us for a quote.
Yes. Everything happens under direct instructor supervision with flotation at hand. Being comfortable putting your face in the water is enough to start.
Soft contacts work fine under a mask. Tell us when booking and we’ll also prepare a prescription mask if needed.
This is an experience, not a certification course — but it flows straight into AIDA2 whenever you want to continue.
