Indoor Yugawara training pool for scuba and freedive practice.
Yugawara Aqua Park is an indoor training pool in Kanagawa used by locals, scuba divers, and freedivers for fitness, lessons, and skill-building in a controlled environment. It provides a dedicated deep-well practice space for buoyancy work, breath-hold practice, and calm-water drills before moving back into open water. The venue reopened in 2024 and now serves as a year-round practice base rather than an open-water dive site.
