What can divers find off the coast of Okinawa's islands?


For underwater adventures, head down to the southern islands of Okinawa or Kyushu. The crystal-clear waters and warm temperatures attract many divers, who come not only to see the marine life but also to explore underwater ruins and wrecks from World War II. Visit Yurigahama sand bar (pictured right) in Kagoshima prefecture for truly sensational underwater (and overwater) views.

Which animals visit the island's beaches between May and July each year?


YAKUSHIMA - ALPS ON THE OCEAN By Julian Ryall

From a distance, Yakushima appears to rise like a green cone from the ocean. As the aircraft approaches, the squalls that come and go over the flanks of its mountains obscure the greenery and the waves crashing at the bottom of the sea cliffs turn the water white.
Everything here seems to revolve around the element from which this World Heritage Site emerges, 60 km south of Cape Sata in Kagoshima Prefecture, Kyushu's most southerly prefecture.
The nearly-14,000 residents of this ancient island are proud that it has been recognised by UNESCO and are less interested in exploiting its unique environment than protecting it. Not many other communities, for example, would impose firm limits on the number of visitors arriving to witness one of the most important events in the island's annual cycle.
Every year, between May and July, dozens of loggerhead turtles make the torturous climb up the beaches on the western coast of the island to lay their eggs. And every year, visitors are closely monitored to ensure that they do not interfere.
