Terms of use

As of October 2026

What this is about

These terms apply to the use of the website bluecaveokinawasnorkeling.com. Blue Cave Okinawa Snorkeling is an independent guide to snorkeling and diving at the Blue Cave of Cape Maeda in Onna Village on Okinawa, Japan: the tours, the way into the cave by boat or by the stairs, try dives, getting there, the flags and closures, the Kerama Islands and the season. We do not sell snorkel trips, dives, tickets or tours ourselves.

Who sells your tour

If you book a tour through one of our links, you enter into the contract on the GetYourGuide website with GetYourGuide or with the respective tour operator. Their terms and conditions apply. They are responsible for the tour, payments, rebookings, and cancellations, not we.

Prices and availability

Prices on this website are starting prices and are for orientation only. If you convert them into another currency, we use reference rates from the European Central Bank; the result is an approximate value. Only the price and availability shown by GetYourGuide before booking are binding.

Sea conditions, closures and safety

Snorkeling and diving at Cape Maeda depend on the waves, the wind, the tide and the decisions of the facility, the operators and the authorities. The stairs to the water can be closed, a trip can move to another beach or be cancelled, and nobody can promise that the Blue Cave is open on a given day. Our pages describe safety rules as the facility, the police, the coast guard and the training agencies publish them; they do not replace a briefing, a course or medical advice, and only your guide, an instructor or a doctor can tell you whether you are fit to snorkel or dive.

Commissions

Links to tours are affiliate links. If you book through such a link, we receive a commission from GetYourGuide. You incur no additional costs as a result.

Links to other websites

We link to third-party sources and offers. The respective operators are solely responsible for their content.

Copyright

Texts and graphics on this website are copyrighted. You may read, print, and share them for private purposes by linking to the page. Any other use requires our consent. Tour photos belong to the respective providers; map data: © OpenStreetMap contributors.

Liability

We are liable without limit for intent and gross negligence as well as for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health. Otherwise, we are liable only for breach of essential obligations and limited to typically foreseeable damage. Use of this website is free of charge.

Applicable law and changes

German law applies. If you are a consumer with ordinary residence in another state, the mandatory protection provisions of your home country remain unaffected. We may amend these terms; the version published at the time of your visit to the website applies.
