Snorkeling in South-East Ishigaki (between airport and city)

Snorkeling in South-East Ishigaki (between airport and city) - Close Up of Departures Board on Airport

In Ishigaki, I am planning to walk or cycle from the airport to the city center, along the South-East coast.

QUESTION: Are there snorkeling spots on the way?

  • Close enough to the beach to reach without a boat
  • Not more dangerous than the average snorkeling spot (winds, currents, etc)
  • Fish and reef (the more the better)

By snorkeling I mean staying at the surface and looking into the water with a mask, with a snorkel to breath (no oxygen bottles). Question for the automn season, but answers for all seasons accepted too.

Best Answer

You could contact the local dive shops, and ask them, they would at least tell you where they take you when you take a trip with them.
