Hard to access from shore (trek with gear across jagged limestone terrain & climb in/out of water) & some dangerous current & surf potentials. Depths can be dramatic but underwater life is hard to find elsewhere on Okinawa.
I have seen multiple sharks and turtles on almost every dive as well as
Napoleon wrasses, occasional mantas and usually hear migrating whales
during January through March. I have also seen schooling bat fish,
travail, Bonita and Dog tooth as well as an occasional barracuda.
Definitely not for those new to diving or who have a hard time reading water conditions.
