Enokuchi is a drift dive site located off the Izu Peninsula, Japan, characterised by strong currents and open water conditions. The site reaches a maximum depth of 23 metres, with visibility typically ranging between 20 and 30 metres. Due to the significant current and the presence of shark species, this site is strictly for advanced divers. Access is by boat only, and divers must coordinate closely with their skipper regarding current timing and surface signalling protocols. Water temperatures fluctuate between 18 and 26 degrees Celsius throughout the year. Divers should maintain strict buoyancy control and monitor their depth gauges closely while navigating this dynamic marine environment.
