EXCELLENT Based on 172 reviews Posted on Lyrma EchidnaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Une très bonne expérience avec Julien pour notre baptême de plongée. Merci de nous avoir montré les tortues et de m'avoir aidé à surmonter tout mon stress ! 😊Posted on Manon BelliardTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Nous avons réservé un baptême de plongée il y a deux semaines avec Julien. Ce fut une expérience incroyable. Julien a su nous rassurer quand à nos inquiétudes et était très pédagogue c’était cool. Merci à vous !Posted on Michael KennewegTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an absolutely amazing diving experience! Everything was perfectly organized and ran smoothly from start to finish. Our guide was fantastic — super friendly, professional, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. We truly enjoyed every single moment underwater and couldn’t have been more satisfied. It was a wonderful day and a very special experience we’ll never forget. On a personal note: this dive was a highlight of our trip and created memories we’ll always cherish. Thank you so much for making it such a special and unforgettable day for us! 🌊🤿Posted on Dawn SuniTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have now done 10 dives with the Bubble Addict crew and will definitely be doing more. They are always friendly and give personal attention and recommendations to improve your skills. Today I did a special one on one course to improve my buoyancy skills. It was definitely worth it. I learned a lot. Sheyla and Julien are great.Posted on Harrison ElliottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Five out of five stars, easily! Bubble Addicts isn't just the best diving school in Okinawa, it's the best in all of Japan. Our instructor, Julien, made the entire experience enjoyable and left me feeling comfortable and completely confident for my certification. He's a genuinely excellent instructor who takes the time to ensure you not only learn all the required skills but also go beyond for a safe diving experience. Over five dives, we slowly and thoroughly built up our knowledge and practiced various skills. Whether you are learning for the first time or are an experienced diver visiting Okinawa, you absolutely must book with Bubble Addicts.Posted on Anna WunderlichTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found this place when searching for a dive school to do my advanced open water diver. Julien responded right away- communication was super easy and the course was set up within just a few days. I did some dives with Julien and some with sheyla who is also an instructor. Both of them did a great job! I had none been diving in over a year and I got a proper refresher, how to set up the gear, what to look out for, putting the gear on on land/ on the boat/in the water. We went to different dive sites every day. My absolute highlight was the night dive! I was the only student and was shown all the animals that come out at night (such as shrimp, starfish and lobsters!) during the day you can admire beautiful reef, excellent vision, and diverse marine life including turtles! Julien and his wife also run the beautiful cafe where everybody meets before and after dives, the perfect place to wind down, connect and have delicious coffee and homemade snacks. There is also an appartment right behind the cafe which is super convenient. Free parking is just down the road and for anybody who is around without a car, the team also offers pick ups/ drop offs from nearby hotel. Unlike what is told online it is quite possible to come to nakijin by highway bus from Naha! There are also multiple local bus lines which are just not as easy to find online, so don’t rule this wonderful location out and opt for onna, just because it is closer by. Those place are run over by so many divers and different schools. With Julien I was almost completely alone which is so much nicer to enjoy nature at its purest.Posted on Mariah JenningsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did a discovery dive with Shelia, then continued on to do my open water course with Shelia & Julian & cannot be happier with the experience! From the moment you step into the cafe, they create a fun, safe, & comfortable environment to learn in and help through challenges. I highly recommend using Bubble Addict to dive & see the beauty Okinawa’s waters have to offer! I can’t wait for my next dive with them!Posted on Margot AmbroiseTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did my first discovery dive with Julien from Bubble Addict and it was absolutely incredible! From the moment I arrived at the center, in the lovely coffee shop, I felt completely at ease. The team was kind, welcoming and very reassuring. The underwater world was beyond anything I imagined. The corals were vibrant, the variety of fish was stunning and I even saw a turtle!! I’m now motivated to pursue my Level 1 certification. Would recommend this diving center to anyone, with all diving levels, especially foreign travelers given Julien speaks English and French fluently and has a lot of experience.Posted on Erik Jeremy JörgTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Was für eine fantastische Erfahrung! Ich habe bei Bubble Addict Okinawa meinen SSI Advanced Adventurer Kurs absolviert und bin unglaublich dankbar. Nach meiner Open Water Diver Zertifizierung im Juni war das der perfekte nächste Schritt. Ein riesiges Dankeschön geht an Julien, der es mir ermöglicht hat, den Kurs in meiner kurzen Zeit auf Okinawa zu belegen. Das gesamte Team ist nicht nur total cool und geduldig, sondern auch extrem professionell. Ich habe so viele neue Dinge gelernt und mich zu jeder Zeit sicher gefühlt. Ein besonderer Dank gilt auch Sheila für meinen ersten Nachttauchgang, eine absolut magische und unvergessliche Erfahrung! Nach den Tauchtagen habe ich im Soma Cafe super leckeres Essen und erstklassigen Kaffee genossen. Die Atmosphäre dort ist genauso cool wie das Personal. Selbst wenn man nicht taucht, ist das Soma Cafe definitiv einen Besuch wert. Vielen Dank an das gesamte Team von Bubble Addict Okinawa und Soma Cafe.
