Hi there.
I am visiting Japan with some friends this summer and I need some advice. My friends do not dive, but I will not commit the crime of visiting Asia without diving so I am wondering how the diving in Japan is. I heard there are some great spots down in the Okinawa region. Does anyone have experiences with that? And how is it cost wise? I am a student and travel on a tight budget. What is the cost of getting there from the major cities like Tokyo. And are there cheap resorts to stay at? The cheaper, the better, so shabby bungalows are perfect. Maybe someone has some contacts I can hook up with?
Alternatively I may book flight tickets through some other Asian country (which of course isnt cheap either), and spend a week in for example Malaysia on the way home. Any tips here? I have already dived in Indonesia, which was great, but I want to try somewhere new. Heard someone say Malaysia was great.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to read my post, and I hope you have some advice.
