Kashima Coral Beach
At Coral Beach on the uninhabited island of "Deer Island," National Park Special Protection Area No. 7, the water suddenly deepens from shallow to deep at a 45-degree angle. A rich ecosystem has been built here, with coral and shallow bays scattered about that serve as shelter for small fish, and deeper areas in the immediate vicinity. In summer, schools of yellow croaker appear in this area at a high rate, and kampachi, horse mackerel, squid, and other fish congregate to prey on them.
Porgy fish, snappers, snappers, groupers, scorpionfish, schools of rockfish, kampachi, yellowtail, turtles, rare sharks, rays, frogfish, flatfish, and rare sharks. This is a point where fish are abundant, large in size and very numerous.
