Okinawa Ao no Dokutsu “Blue Cave” (Cape Maeda)
Pristine, Glittering Blue Sea Await at this Coveted Diving Spot!
Cape Maeda is located in Onna, a village on the northern part of Okinawa’s main island.
The cave beneath the cliff that faces the sea is known as “Ao no Dokutsu”, or “Blue Cave”, because the sunlight shining through it lights it up in shades of blue. Whether diving or snorkeling this is one of the hottest spots to visit on Okinawa’s main island.

Even if you don’t plan to swim this spot is worth the visit just for the view from the observation deck alone. Insider’s tip, drop by in the evening for an unforgettably famous sunset view.
