Okinawa has some of the best diving in the world. The Ocean is filled with beautiful coral reefs and vast amounts of marine life only found here. The water is warm and the clarity is outstanding. If you ever get the chance to scuba dive in Okinawa, go for it and do not hesitate. Below are a few of my underwater photographs over the years. All the images were photographed on scuba in the beautiful waters of Okinawa-Japan.
