About This Dive Spot

Kohri Zampa, translating to 'broken lingering waves' in the Okinawan dialect, is a dive site with a notable drop-off reaching depths of 40 meters. Divers typically begin their exploration on the north side of two wash rocks. The dive route allows for a journey through a series of coral formations resembling Babel towers, starting in shallow waters, passing through two distinct arches, and returning to shallower depths. The site is characterized by light filtering through the arches, creating a unique visual experience. Marine life sightings may include Napoleon fish, Nemuribuka, stingrays, and sea turtles. Commonly observed species include Smilax longfin snappers, along with various other fish such as sparrowhawks, gobies, wrasse, butterflyfish, and sea otters. Seasonal rarities like Cinderella nudibranchs and shrimp may also be encountered.
