Sheltered Kanagawa shore-dive with a signature anemone colony.
Fukuura is a sheltered shore-diving destination on the western side of the Manazuru Peninsula, built around simple access, local dive-service support, and a standout anemone colony in the shallow reef zone. It works well as a low-friction Kanto day trip for beginners, training dives, and slower macro exploration. The wider Fukuura area also adds a boat-diving option, so divers can match the plan to the day's water and weather.

Keep buoyancy tight around the colony, follow the local entry and exit routine, and treat the sea-state update as the final word before entry.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Shallow reef structure and the on-site service make Fukuura comfortable for beginner training, relaxed fun dives, and slow macro work.
Freediving
Experienced freedivers can use the shallow shore zone on calm days, but Fukuura is better known as a supported scuba site than as a pure breath-hold venue.
Snorkeling
Very calm days can suit short snorkel sessions close to the entry area, but the best life sits around the structure and is easier to see with fins and a mask.
