About this site
West Warship (ウエストワーシップ) is a drop-off wall dived by boat, about 15 minutes out from Okinoerabu Island in Kagoshima Prefecture. Depths run from around 10 m down to a maximum of 30 m, and the dive is spent along the wall watching the blue for large pelagic fish while keeping an eye on depth. Intermediate and above.
