Yotsushima Jetty, located in the Izu Peninsula, is a gentle reef dive suitable for beginners. The site ranges from the surface to a maximum depth of 16 metres. Divers access the reef by boat, where mild currents typically keep conditions manageable. The topography features a jetty structure that attracts schools of fish, red seabream, and Asian sheepshead wrasse. Water temperatures fluctuate significantly throughout the year, ranging from 10C in March to 26C in August and September, requiring appropriate thermal protection. Due to the presence of boat traffic, divers must remain close to their guides and ensure their position is clearly marked when surfacing.
