A generating method for generating one of mist and fine-bubbles or fine-bubbles is provided. The generating method includes arranging a piezoelectric substrate equipped thereon with an excitation source in a liquid, generating a flow of the liquid using a liquid flow generator that generates the flow of the liquid relative to the piezoelectric substrate, exciting a surface acoustic wave on the excitation source, propagating the excited surface acoustic wave so as to generate mist on a gas side and to generate fine-bubbles on a liquid side of the piezoelectric substrate, carrying the generated fine-bubbles away from the piezoelectric substrate with the generated flow of the liquid, and drawing the liquid containing the fine-bubbles from a liquid container which contains the liquid.
