Kayaffa (Nakanoshima Beach) is like a natural aquarium.
The dynamic topography is unique to Miyako Island, with a depth of 7 meters even on the in-reef, and is home to more than 100 species of tropical fish and more than 100 of the 350 species of corals that live on Miyako Island.â
Four of the six species of bear fleas said to exist in Japan (clownfish, white-tailed bearfish, hammerhead clownfish, and bear flea) can be seen here.
In addition to clownfish, visitors can also see more than 100 types of coral, including kelp coral, which has lived here for more than 300 years!
The diving experience at Nakanoshima Beach takes you to the bottom of the ocean at a depth of about 6 meters, and the clarity of the water is so high that you can clearly see the shapes and colors of the creatures even from the bottom of the ocean.
《 Environmentally friendly eco-tours 》
We offer eco-tours that play "no touch" to reduce the environmental burden caused by each participant and diver, and to pass on healthy coral reefs to the next generation by learning nature-friendly ocean play etiquette.
You can enjoy fish swimming "in their natural state" in the field where we conduct our tours. Please come and experience the "real sea"!
