Ginowan Marine Center - Okinawa Main Island

Ginowan Marine Center is a convenient shore dive, especially if you’re staying close to Naha and want an easy entry. The maximum depth is a shallow 10m, making it perfect for check dives or getting comfortable again after a break. You'll often spot some juvenile reef fish darting between the rocks and a scattering of hard corals on the sandy bottom. We like it as a casual afternoon dip, maybe when you don't feel like a boat trip. It’s certainly not Okinawa’s most spectacular dive, but it's reliable and accessible for beginners.
