About This Dive Spot
Bitagane is situated near the wreck at Atami and features fixed buoys marking depths between 18 to 20 meters. The western side, known as No.1 root, maintains a depth of approximately 20 meters, while the eastern side, or No.2 root, descends to around 30 meters. The site is characterized by strong currents that draw in a variety of fish species. Seasonal gatherings of anthias can be observed around the reef, and coral anemones at No.2 root provide habitat for clownfish and damselfish. Additionally, transient species are frequently spotted in this area.
