Ama Adventure Tour!
Last update
Ama divers dive without oxygen tanks or any other scuba equipment, and respect natural cycles by harvesting only fully grown shellfish and seaweed. On this tour you’ll get to dive together with a working Ama, who will accompany your group throughout and give an exclusive lesson in traditional fishing methods. Splashing around in the shallows around an uninhabited island, you’ll learn firsthand how to move among the waves and how to tell shellfish from rocks under the water. Imagine the sense of achievement when you catch your first sea urchin!
