What is a street pond (pot-bottom pond)?
Street Pond (Nabesoko Pond) is one of the most beautiful natural spots on Miyako Island and, along with its unique scenery, is very popular among snorkelers and tourists. Street Pond is located along the road connecting Irabu Island and Miyako Island, and is known as a natural pond, with its beautiful seawater, crystal clear bottom, and surrounding natural scenery.
The name "Street Pond" comes from its topography. It is also called "pot-bottom pond" because the bottom of the pond is hollowed out like a pot, and together with the rocks and plants surrounding the pond, it creates an atmosphere as if it were in another world. The pond's water is extremely clear and its transparency makes it an ideal place for snorkeling.
The pond is relatively shallow in many areas, allowing even beginners to safely enjoy snorkeling. The pond is also home to an abundance of marine life, and the greatest attraction is that you can enjoy the beauty of nature right before your eyes, including colorful tropical fish and coral reefs.
Why and how to enjoy Street Pond (Pot Bottom Pond)
The reason for the popularity of Dori Pond (Nabeshi Pond) is its unique topography and crystal clear water, as well as the many marine creatures that inhabit it. In particular, when you look into the crystal clear water, you can clearly see all the way to the bottom of the pond, giving you the feeling as if you are in an underwater world. These are ideal conditions for snorkeling and diving.
In the pond, visitors can observe tropical fish, sea turtles, and a variety of seaweed and coral, making them feel as if they are in an aquarium. It is especially recommended for those interested in marine life, as schools of fish can be seen swimming among the coral reefs right in front of you.
The pond is also surrounded by lush greenery, making it possible to take a walk while enjoying the scenery. Walking along the surrounding footpaths, you can appreciate the seasonal flowers blooming around the pond and the beauty of nature as you enjoy the surrounding scenery.
Those interested in snorkeling can swim freely in the crystal clear water and interact with beautiful tropical fish. Furthermore, the relatively calm ocean conditions in the pond allow even beginners to enjoy snorkeling with peace of mind due to the gentle waves.
