Program Contents

The Shimoda Floating Aquarium's large aquarium, with a theme of recreating the Izu Sea, is home to 10,000 organisms of 50 species, including fish, invertebrates, and seaweed.
This activity allows you to scuba dive in a 600 cubic meter water tank that reproduces the richness of the Izu Sea, which is influenced by both the Oyashio and Kuroshio Currents and is home to a wide variety of creatures in its deep waters.
All you need is a swimsuit and a towel, and anyone in good health between the ages of 10 and 64 is welcome to participate. After changing into a wetsuit, you will receive a brief lecture on diving from the instructor and move to the Aqua Dome Perry. A professional instructor will accompany you in the water and take care of you, so even those who are anxious can rest assured.
The glass-walled pool allows you to see the diving experience from the outside, so you can take two shots with your family and friends while diving! Recommended for parents and children!
