Fushikikokubu
Shallow beach-entry macro site on the Toyama coast.
Easy beach access and a sandy slope make this a practical training and macro site when the sea is settled.
About Fushikikokubu
Fushikikokubu is a shallow beach-entry site in Kokubu Seaside Park on the Toyama coast. A sandy bottom and offshore blocks create an easy, practice-friendly setting with a gradual slope and plenty of room for relaxed macro hunting. The site is known for small life rather than big scenery: nudibranchs are common, with seasonal cuttlefish spawning, summer seahorses, and other fish gathering around the blocks. It is best in settled weather; winter monsoon conditions can make the shoreline rougher and reduce clarity.

Scuba Diving
Shallow, sandy beach diving with a gentle slope, good for training, check dives, and macro hunting when conditions are settled.
Freediving
Only a side option in very calm conditions. The site is more naturally a scuba spot because the main life sits around the blocks.
