Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6 reviews
Schools of sixbanded trevally can be spotted throughout the year especially from August to October, when large numbers gather making it a worthwhile visit. The great tide means you can see large gatherings of arrow barracuda, as well as dogtooth tuna and other migratory fish in the summer.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 6 reviews
One of Kumejima’s most prominent underseascape, Shichugama derived its name from the Okinawan dialect to mean “sea chubs in a hole.” The intricate underseascape makes it a charming diving site. The L-shaped cave that goes from 5 to 30 meters deep and returns from 28 to 6 meters is the distinctive point of this area.
