JEPS RESPONSIBLE DIVING GUIDE
Japanese marine life survey: distance, contact, feeding, and coral protection
The best match is unchangeable animal behavior; holding distance, restraining buoyancy, and the biological decision is close.
QUICK ANSWER
Don't chase, don't check, don't eat, also don't beat the news station on the coral
Distance to preserve marine life, avoidance, containment, pursuit, determent, invasion, and food intake. Maintain neutral buoyancy, pay attention to frog shoes and towing equipment; control lights and dwell time at the time of beat. Different protection zones and different species regulations, therefore, the same standards for the marking of local contractors.

BEHAVIOR
4 judgments upon inspection
| Happening | Recommended actions | act of evasion |
|---|---|---|
| close to animals | Retaining self-selection | hand-printed square or envelope |
| animal release | Stop approach increase distance | Pursuing or blocking route |
| Near coral | Control buoyancy and frog shoes position | Standing, kneeling or grabbing |
| Taking photos and videos | Please be accompanied by a reduced number of stops. | Repetitive stimulus or strategy safety |

FAQ
Japanese marine life observation questions
Is it possible to eat water or fish?
Unnecessary active movement nearby or viewing wildlife. Retain animals in their own moving space, train them to comply with local regulations, and avoid avoiding companion animals.
Is it okay to eat fish and eat fish?
Unnecessary food, noise, and light-absorbing creatures. It is possible to change natural acts, add to them or compete, and also violate local rules.
Is there coral in the station or resting on the ocean floor?
Unnecessary station, kneeling or living coral or fragile bottom sediment. Indication of buoyancy parallel training at the specified time of demand, designated safe area location.
Frog slipper to coral reef escape?
Holding horizontal posture, restraining frog position, decreasing lifting position, parallel coral holding space. Equipment pipelines are also required, and evacuation guides are used.
Animal play?
Unnecessary pursuit, obstructing the path or forcing animals to change directions. When used as a focus or as a natural approach, young people appear to be escaping and increase their distance.
Is it possible to use a flashlight and a video light?
Possibility of different species and different types of points are limited. Preliminary training, long-term irradiation, repeated stimulation of the same body or other water personnel.
Is there any specific rule for each country in Japan?
Unidentified. Protected areas, species, availability and distance of seasonal trade, restrictions on access, mantle and access restrictions, site description and markings.
BOOKING DECISION
Observation of marine life is not required, just record "Unnecessary": Compliance itinerary with first choice
The terms and conditions of liability inspection start before the end. The name of the itinerary is "floating boat", "ban water" or "prize whale", in reality it is possible to go to the shore, boat boat, drift, stationary station or long-distance ship observation; possible to sewage, possible to use flashlights, whether or not to enter the protected area, and who decides on the approach distance. A plan to reserve species that are unnecessary, to choose a destination, to clearly explain nature conservation regulations, and to decide whether to cancel them.
| travel situation | Pre-deposit judgment | On-site failure omitted |
|---|---|---|
| First maritime activity or impoundment | Questions regarding whether or not the ship is on board, lifesaving equipment, the length of the ship, the ship's hull, no sewage, and emergency evacuation. | Immersing yourself in the water without delay; safety instructions given by the captain and driver |
| Thoughtful coral or fish school | Confirmation lights, flashlights, mantles, soles and entry area regulations | Pre-emptive buoyancy equipment, restart time; non-pursuit, non-containment |
| Accompanying parents and children or multiple people | Separation confirmation Age, swimming ability, warmth, onboard supervision position, estimated age and age | Members are determined on a consistent basis, and inspections are carried out on board or on shore to determine who is present. |
| Encounter with animals | Confirmed vendor approval/appropriation location childcare regulations, procedures for cancellation of unaccounted for maritime conditions | Unfavourable food, unrequited redirection, unsolicited rerouting; Distance determined by operator |
COST & PLAN B
``Guarding living things'' and ``Keeping services''
No additional cost, just one option
Departure confirmation ship expenses or entry fees, equipment lease, guidance, protection, transportation, transportation, protection area expenses and consumption. Included items are subject to terms and conditions, and may vary depending on the operator, or may not be applicable or may be subject to other marine areas.
Daily supply sea conditions for grasping
Strong winds, thunderstorms, strong winds, waves, currents, port entrance or childcare arrangements, possible itinerary changes, shortening or cancellation. Return navigation teams, ships crossing islands, important transportation unnecessary, and maritime activities eliminated at the same lawless adjustment stage.
Unfavorable contractor penalty
Undeniable guarantee that wildlife will appear. Explanation of documents obtained before supplementary provisions: Unaccounted for, unsewage, shortened, suspension due to unforeseen circumstances, cancellation of private passenger service, revision of availability, retirement or revision, and other proposals.
Report on physical and equipment requirements
Advance notice of swimming ability, water retention, ear, nose and throat or respiratory circulation related conditions, clothing, fertilization and heat protection requirements. Unnecessary snacks, hand-held items or strong light-absorbing animals, and unnecessary handling equipment and placement near coral reefs.
BEFORE YOU GO
Walk through 5 reservations
- Preliminary confirmation means on-board inspection, floating, water return, proof of water return, and the same type of service.
- The current page for selection of construction site, nuclear assembly location, age and health conditions, equipment, availability, cost inclusion and cancellation rules.
- Transport, accommodation and lodging can be adjusted at least one time schedule; reservations may be revised or canceled in case of unfavorable sea conditions.
- Before the launch, read the local regulations of the protected area, autonomous body or natural park; give instructions to the young workers, and confirm that the site markings are not correct.
- Priority is given to buoyancy, distance, and safety of companions after sewage. Animal change direction, evade or approach, chase or reach out.

ADDITIONAL FAQ
Questions about reservations and photos
Thinking of the seagull or the sea pig, is it okay to request captain Ichika Ichika?
It is impossible to pursue or approach the request for self-reliance. Regulations regarding the location of ships, navigation, and observation of animal behavior and sea conditions; changes in direction, suspension, and cancellation of passengers;
Can I withdraw after a certain period of time after cancellation of sea conditions?
Uncertain. Changes in terms of term, withdrawal, changes on shore or onboard ship, depending on the conditions of the contractor. Same-sided written regulations required to be obtained before the by-laws, common transportation, accommodation and accommodation adjustment space.
Is it possible for parents and children to participate in swimming?
Uncertain. Age, swimming ability, warmth, lifesaving equipment, itinerary, sea conditions, and qualifications that affect the ability to be safely ejected from the capital. Confirm the actual situation of the child from the previous purchaser and estimate the adult condition for unnecessary use.
Do I need to check before using a video light or flash light?
Prior confirmation protection area, product type and vendor regulations. Immediate use is permitted, long-term irradiation and repeated stimulation of the same body or coral or animals nearby.
Is it possible for an injured or trapped animal to go down the drain?
Unnecessary approach or procedure. Maintain a safe distance, immediately notify the captain, guide, or local main machinery; self-propelled access is possible at the same time as increased human and animal forces.
