Checklist da operadora
Ask the shop for a site-specific maximum depth, current plan, number of boats and in-water instructor ratio; verify drift, camera and SMB expectations. YDS publishes high-season restrictions and separate summer introductory scuba; another shop's acceptance does not override local safety conditions. If the proposed route includes a swim-through, tunnel, cavern or enclosed space, require a specific open-water exit or appropriate overhead training rather than assuming the name is harmless. Carry a certification card and recent log. Winter terms; Rates and kit. Date-specific availability: Yonaguni Diving Service states it is closed for both diving and lodging October 13 to November 11, 2026. This is a named business closure, not an islandwide shutdown. Other operators require direct confirmation; do not extrapolate the closure into 2027. YDS October-November 2026 closure.
