(265)
Just 5 minutes by boat from Onna Village’s Maeganeku Port, this coral reef site features sandy flats, gradual drop-offs (5–26m), and artificial coral cultivation. Home to vibrant tropical fish, it’s ideal for all levels—from experience diving to casual fun diving year-round.
Sea turtles now sleep in shallows, viewable while snorkeling. Coral reefs host gobies and echidnas, while smythnids appear on gobies’ backs from March in sandy areas.
