Hateruma Island
Hateruma Island is south of Iriomote Island. You can go there by ferry from Ishigaki Island, but you can also get there from Iriomote Island to dive. There are no buses or signals on the island. All the dives are boat dives. The appeal of Hateruma is its high clarity, sometimes exceeding 50 meters, and you can enjoy the beautiful blue sea that flows through the pure white sand. There are many sandy points on the northwest shore and drop-off points and large migratory fishes on the east shore.
