Kurohae
About Kurohae
This site lies in a National Park Special Protection Area and is chosen when tidal movement is minimal because currents can run fast. The area is known for very high fish density and a compact mix of habitats. Rocky terrain to the north holds hard coral colonies, while the south side features large soft-coral growth along with nannyo goatfish. Divers can see a wide range of fish life, including large schools and occasional larger visitors.
