"Our students are not simply learning surfing, snorkeling, free diving, or fishing.
They are learning confidence, self-reliance and leadership.
They are learning how to take responsibility for themselves and their equipment,
and how to watch out for one another’s safety in the ocean."
Welcome to Blue Reef Okinawa
Our Program teaches students to look around, to be aware of their environment, and to use their 5 senses to make good decisions that will keep them safe in the water. Beginning with Ocean Safety in the classroom, students dive into our custom curriculum designed to build strong swimming skills while learning to surf, snorkel, free dive, paddle, and fish.
The BRO program is a full day drop off program from 8am until 3pm. We believe that each day offers us a new opportunity to learn from the ocean. And we get the most out of each day by planning our activities to best suit the water conditions. When the waves are up, we surf. When surface conditions are smooth, we snorkel and dive. And when the winds are in our favor we explore the coast on rafts and paddle boards.
We love to adventure, and we let the ocean be our guide.
