Kamigusuku

Also known as: 上城 (Japanese) · カミグスク (Japanese)

Diving WG explains that the name means 'upper castle' because the site lies north of Gusuku Island. The big rock is split inside so that divers can swim through it, and openings in its walls framed by soft corals look like stained-glass windows. Clouds of orange anthias dance around the sea fans that cover the rock. On sunny days light beams fill the caves, and GOLD mentions a second, little-known cave nearby. Further out, sea fans as tall as a diver grow at the edge of the sand, where spotted eagle rays and pelagic fish are sometimes met.
