About Nakanoshima Hole
Nakanoshima Hole is a dramatic hole-topography dive in Nakanoshima Bay with a shallow entrance, a vertical drop, and bright light-silver contrasts through the shaft. It is a good fit for guided dives that want shape, color, and schools of small fish rather than long cruising. Conditions can turn serious on the open-ocean side, so timing and current awareness matter.
