Okinawa's Blue Caves become a hot spot for underwater photography due to the dreamy blue light formed by the refraction of sunlight. Includes coaching, GoPro or VR camera rental, and post-production of refined photos and videos. The plans are divided into "Basic Recording" (30 minutes of underwater shooting, starting from ¥13,700) and "Wedding Plan" (including makeup and underwater dress, starting from ¥45,000), and you can freely choose shore diving or boat diving.
Things to note when shooting:
1. It is recommended to wear bright-colored swimsuits or rent special underwater clothing to enhance the picture effect.
2. Those without diving experience can also participate, but they need to fill out a health declaration form in advance, and those over 50 years old need to attach a doctor's certificate.
3. The best time to take photos is between 9:00 and 11:00 in the morning, when the angle of sunlight is most conducive to the presentation of blue light in the cave.
