About This Dive Spot

Kashima Coral Beach, located on the uninhabited Deer Island within National Park Special Protection Area No. 7, features a dramatic underwater slope that descends steeply at a 45-degree angle. The area is characterized by a diverse ecosystem, with coral formations and shallow bays that provide habitat for various small fish. During the summer months, this site attracts large schools of yellow croaker, while predatory species such as kampachi, horse mackerel, and squid gather to feed. The marine life here includes porgy fish, snappers, groupers, scorpionfish, rockfish, yellowtail, turtles, rays, and occasionally rare sharks. The abundance and size of the fish make this site notable for divers.
