Okinawa

Kunigami District

Japan

The area has lots of channels and crevices in the reef. A few decent walls which go down to 60-80 feet. A short swim down the shire is a open sea cave with ambient light and plenty of fish. Some hazards include stonefish, sea snakes, cone shell snails and during the later part of the year jellyfish (to include the box jellyfish). Overall it is an excellent site to dive with awesome scenery, many types of fish and of course easy entry and exit.

Get on Highway 58 heading North. After passing Kadena Air Base you travel approximently 15 km till you see the overhead sign directing you to Cape Zanpa. After turning onto that road you will travel for about 15 minutes depending on traffic. When you get to the second split in the road veer to the right. (This turn is located about 1 km outside of Zanpa itself) Another ten minute trip and you will see the sign to Maeda Point overhead. Follow that road down and you arrive at the parking gate. The fee to park is 100 yen per hour (less than a dollar depending on the yen rate). Suit up in the parking lot and head to the stairs which take you down the cliff to entry point.

Maeda Point is also known as Maeda Misaki, Cape Maeda.
