Dive-site story
Located off the central west coast of Okinawa Main Island just north of Kadena Marina, this site features a shallow reef flat that transitions into a gradual coral-covered slope ending on an open sand bed. Divers navigate spur-and-groove formations, rubble patches, and scattered coral heads inhabited by macro critters and reef fish.
Extensive soft coral patches interspersed with hard coral bommies
Macro photography opportunities among reef crevices and sandy margins
Calm entry conditions during light easterly winds
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Summer and early autumn deliver the warmest water and most consistent visibility when prevailing winds blow offshore from the east.
