Papalagi Diving School Shinjuku is a key part of a larger diving network that has been operating in Japan since 1999. As the second branch of the Papalagi group, this shop has built a reputation for reliability and expertise over nearly three decades of operation.
The centre is strategically located in the Chiyoda area, just a seven-minute walk from Shinjuku Station. This makes it a convenient hub for divers based in Tokyo who want to organise their training or plan trips to the coast before heading out to the water.
The team at the Shinjuku branch brings a wealth of experience to the table, with a particular focus on the unique marine conditions found in Izu and Okinawa. They are well-versed in guiding divers through both local Japanese waters and more remote international destinations.
The instructors are highly experienced in managing various diver profiles, ranging from those taking their very first breaths underwater to more seasoned divers looking to advance their skills. They have a specific expertise in working with seniors, offering tailored support for divers aged 50 and over.
As a PADI affiliated centre, the school provides a comprehensive range of training programmes. You can begin your journey with the Open Water Diver course, or progress through the Advanced Diver and Rescue Diver certifications.
For those looking to turn a passion into a career, the centre offers the PADI Pro Course. They also provide specialised training for older divers through their dedicated licence programmes for those over 50.
Izu Oshima offers a range of diving opportunities for those looking to explore the volcanic landscapes of the Izu islands.
Iriomote provides access to the unique and biodiverse waters of Okinawa, perfect for those wanting to experience tropical marine environments.
Tomi-do Beach is a distinctive spot where you can enjoy diving during the sunset, providing a different atmosphere than the standard daytime dives.
