OCEAN TATEYAMA

Izu Peninsula, Japan

The team at OCEAN TATEYAMA are exactly the kind of friendly, efficient crew you want handling your dive trip in Izu. We’ve found their local knowledge invaluable, especially when the conditions are a bit shifty and you need someone who knows the quieter, sheltered spots. They specialise in making everything easy, from gear setup to guiding, which is a big plus when you’re navigating a new area. What we really love about diving with them is their flexibility. We've often called them up for last-minute trips, and they've always done their best to accommodate us. Their dive guides have a keen eye for the smaller stuff – nudibranchs, gobies, those tiny creatures tucked into the rocks. We often joke that they can spot a leaf scorpionfish from 20 paces. They also run a really solid PADI 5 Star operation, so if you're thinking about a course, they're a good bet. For divers looking for a no-fuss, genuinely welcoming experience in Izu, OCEAN TATEYAMA is our go-to. They just make diving in Japan so much more enjoyable.
