Hi Guys, I have recently arrived in Yokosuka from the UK (no, Im not in the US Navy!!) and Im staying until mid-December.
I did about 50 dives last season (all but 2 in UK/Ireland!), and want to get some serious diving in Japan whilst Im here. So, any answers to the following would be greatly appreciated:
1) Can anyone tell me local diving options in the area (I guess Izu, but who does everyone go with is it dive clubs, or commercial ops?)
2) Reading previous posts, I guess a trip to Okinawa is a must during my stay?!
3) I hear there are hammerheads etc, especially during the winter if I want to see them, where do I go, and should I get my drysuit shipped out?!
Oh, and Im a BSAC diver (anyone heard of the UK based system?), will it be ok in Japan?
Thanks v much for any help/comments etc Im looking forward to some wicked diving :dazzler1:
