Sazae-ne

Also known as: サザエ根 (Japanese) · さざえ根 (Japanese)

The rock runs north to south over a boulder bottom and is marked by two buoys. From summer to autumn scalefin anthias swarm so densely that the rock itself is hard to see, and sprats, sardines, grunts and takabe are plentiful. Amberjack and yellowtail hunt them, which makes for dramatic dives. The depth changes a lot, so guides recommend it for divers who manage their own buoyancy and no-decompression limits.
