About this dive site

This dive site, Tago, located in Japan, offers a diverse range of diving experiences across its multiple access points. Divers can explore six distinct boat points in the open sea and four unique locations within the bay, complemented by a single beach entry point. While no specific history or navigation challenges are detailed, the site's varied topography provides opportunities for different dive profiles, from protected bay explorations to more exposed open sea adventures. The marine life at Tago is noteworthy, particularly in the bay where a spectacular seaweed coral community thrives, alongside a prominent clump of Green Turtle Coral reminiscent of Okinawa's vibrant reefs. These areas are bustling with much tropical small fish. In the open sea, divers have the chance to encounter larger pelagic species such as kuei (Japanese butterflies) and impressive yellowfin tuna. The best time to visit Tago is not specified but generally, Japanese diving season is summer/early autumn for warmer waters. Divers should pay particular attention to maintaining excellent neutral buoyancy, especially when exploring the delicate seaweed coral community in the bay, to prevent accidental damage. The site's varied depths and conditions make it suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers, with shallower bay areas offering excellent snorkeling opportunities.
