Dive-site story
Located off the coast of Sesoko Island near Motobu, Kumanomiyama centers on a series of coral bommies and gently sloping reefs surrounded by clean white sand. The site earned its name from the high concentration of anemonefish colonies thriving across the reef structure. Soft corals, hard coral formations, and sandy patches offer varied terrain with minimal water movement, making navigation straightforward.
Multiple species of anemonefish residing across discrete coral bommies
Expansive white sandy channels ideal for relaxed buoyancy and photography
Healthy clusters of hard corals and soft branching gorgonians
