Sand Cross - Okinawa Main Island

Sand Cross is a good spot for divers who enjoy searching for smaller, interesting creatures. The site is mostly flat sand at 20m, hence the name, with small patches of coral providing shelter. We often find garden eels swaying in the mild current, along with flatworms, nudibranchs, and sometimes a passing eagle ray. It's an intermediate dive, best suited for those who appreciate the hunt for macro life over dramatic topography.
