About Okubo Hama
Okubo Hama is Miyakejima's main shore dive, reached from a black-gravel beach on the island's north side. The lava-root terrain spreads east and west from the entry, so the site works best one sector at a time rather than as a full circuit. Shallow water above the roots holds coral pockets and dense fish life, while the overhang gives macro subjects a sheltered nook. It is at its best on settled days, when the bay stays calm and the entry is easier.
