Diving Shop ABARO
ABARO is a PADI dive centre in Shimizu, Shizuoka, about one hour from Mount Fuji and roughly an hour by shinkansen from Tokyo. We run courses and guided tours on the Izu Peninsula all year round.
We are a small shop, so groups stay small. Solo travellers join almost every tour and are genuinely welcome.
