From the scenic vantage point at the end of the Ubara Utopia Trail, you can gaze out over the deep waters of the Pacific Ocean to the tiny Ubara Island. This idyllic spot off the coast of Myojin Cape is a popular destination for scuba divers and snorkelers alike.
Ubara Island offers a vibrant underwater world, teeming with diverse marine life nestled among its submerged cliffs and crevasses. The island’s unique topography creates a haven for an array of sea creatures, making every dive an exciting adventure.
Divers are treated to sights of half-lined cardinal fish, rockfish, and convict fish finding solace in their cozy crevices, while isaki (grunt), takabe (sardine), and horse mackerel dart energetically through the depths. The ledges of the underwater cliffs often host cat sharks, adding a thrilling element to the experience. Between winter and spring, you might also encounter lumberjacks and frogfish.
Whether you're a seasoned diver or new to the underwater world, Ubara Island offers a delightful blend of beauty and biodiversity that promises to captivate and inspire underwater adventurers.
