Atami Wreck
★★★★☆
(615)
The Asahi 16, a gravel transport ship, rests split in half underwater, a notable shipwreck in Japan. Its large hull emerges unexpectedly in sandy surroundings, becoming a thriving fish habitat. Near the bow, a winch attracts colorful fish, while descent ropes at both ends offer unique wreck diving experiences.
Anemones, anthias, red snapper at the bow. Hawk moths and damselfish populate shallows. Soft corals at the hull, often house flounder, ideal for wide and macro photography.
