    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    Minna Lighthouse is a solid, easy dive, perfect if you’re looking for a relaxed afternoon in Okinawa. The maximum depth of 18 meters keeps things comfortable, especially for newer divers or those getting back into the swing of things. We often find a good variety of reef fish tucked into the coral patches here; think parrotfish grazing, small schools of snapper, and the occasional moray peeking out from a crevice. It’s not going to blow your mind with massive pelagics, but it delivers a pleasant, unhurried exploration of a healthy Okinawan reef.
