Sunabe

No reviews yetJapan, Ryukyu archipelago, Okinawa Island

Lots of great crevices and abundant sea life. Access can be a little tricky if waves are large. Recommend wearing protective foot wear for walk-in/out as the reef can be hard on your feet. Great assortment of species such as lion fish, sea snakes, puffer fish and parrot fish. Low surge in this area with great visibility. Have heard that this is also a tremendous night dive! Park near the Junkyard and close to an opening in the seawall. Access is walk in, there are reefs right up to the seawall, be careful as you dive the depth increases gradually with so much to see you may lose track of how deep you are. Sunabe is also known as Junkyard.
