Nacho Villoslada from Spain shared some of his favorite photos taken in Ishigaki Island, Okinawa 🙂

“I think manta ray is the main attraction of Ishigaki. This picture was taken at ‘Manta City Point’. I like the very respectful way of how people interact in this diving point. I have been there five times in two different years, and I was lucky enough to find mantas every time. The way you feel when they pass over you is indescribable.“

“This is a Guitar Shark, the only one I have ever seen. It was taken in ‘Yonara Channel’. The conditions must be perfect to dive there, because of the strong currents. On this same dive we saw a white tip reef shark and two mantas. The people of the diving center were able to find the perfect moment between the tides.”

“One of the things that I like most about Ishigaki is the endless variety of corals that you can find there, mostly hard corals. ‘Nagura Bay’ is a very special place.”

“Although Ishigaki is famous for the mantas, you can also find a wide variety of small staff, like this whip coral shrimp, or a lot of nudibranchs. The picture was taken in ‘Osaki Lionfish Palace’.”

Thank you Nacho for sharing your amazing photos!
