About this list

When you look for freediving in Japan, the first problem is telling whether an operator actually runs it. This page lists only the 48 operators in Japan on Maptlantis whose structured activity data confirms a freediving program. Operators that turned up only because a word in their name or description happened to match are left out. They span 9 regions, including Aichi, Aomori, Ishigaki & Yaeyama, Izu & Shizuoka, Amami & Kagoshima and Kumejima. 43 of the 48 operators (90%) publish prices on their own channels, so you can compare those directly; ask the rest. Estimated prices are not shown. Operators list different seasons, May–Oct, Dec–Jan and Mar–Nov among them. There is no single season for Japan, so check each operator's operating period before you set your dates. 39 are listed as open to beginners and 9 as open to children. Operators with structured encounter data list dolphin, humpback whale, coral, tropical fish and sea turtle as target species. Ways to meet them: scuba diving, swimming, snorkeling and boat-based watching. 34 operators are backed by an official source or a government registry. Each operator page shows the address, opening hours and source links, and how to contact the operator.
