About Mizugama

Mizugama is a Kadena shoreline reef north of Sunabe, with shallow sandy sections, soft coral patches, swim-throughs, and cave-like structure that make it useful for easy local diving and training. The site is tide and wind sensitive, so plan around calm conditions, a workable entry, and the more sheltered parts of the seawall rather than assuming it is an every-day flat-water spot. When the sea settles, the reef is a good Okinawa option for relaxed scenic diving, macro hunting, and repeat shore entries.
