Ariga Cable

Also known as: Ariga · Aliger Cable · アリガー (Japanese) · アリガーケーブル (Japanese)

Following the cable over the sand leads divers to an offshore rock at about 22 to 25 m where snappers and cardinalfish school and a colony of garden eels lines up into the current. The shallow reef is known for its corals, sea anemones with clownfish and green turtles, and giant cuttlefish visit in spring to lay eggs. SEASIR mentions hundreds of double-lined fusiliers and dogtooth tuna in the shallows. The site is dived either from an anchored boat or as a drift, and the current near shore can run against the offshore flow. Beginners can stay in the shallows while experienced divers drift out to the offshore rock.
