Kushimoto boat dive with multiple anchor points, little current, and a shallow coral-sand mix that suits relaxed scuba days.
About Glass World
Glass World is a boat-accessed Kushimoto reef dive at the end of a tidal cape, with multiple anchor points, a shallow coral plateau, and little current. The route is simple but buoyancy matters over the sand, roots, and white coral clusters, and the site suits relaxed scuba days and repeat visits when you can choose a calm tide window and work deliberately around the anchor points.

Local Intel For Glass World
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
The site is forgiving for newer divers, but the sand-and-root structure still calls for buoyancy control.
Freediving
Free-diving is only realistic in the shallowest zone; scuba is the better fit for the full reef and anchor range.
Snorkeling
Snorkelling works best over the shallow coral anchors, but the site is much more rewarding as a scuba dive.
