Scuba Diving in Japan

Rating (9/10)

star star star star star star star star star star
From January to December

There are over 2,000 dive spots located around the Japanese shores. From the warm tropical waters in the South China Sea and Pacific Ocean to the cold arctic waters around Hokkaido island in the north there are all kinds of dives to be had in Japan. By far the best spot for scuba diving in Japan off Okinawa island. A 2-3 hours flight south from the main islands takes you to a tropical paradise of warm, crystal clear waters with myriad fish among stunning coral reefs. Other scuba diving hotspots in Japan include Izu Peninsula and Izu Islands and the Ogaswara Islands. The icy waters around Hokkaido also offer great opportunities for ice-diving.
