Bora Cave, Miyakojima

Bora Cave is located about 500 meters from Bora Beach and is only accessible during very low tide. Since it was a full moon, the tides were low and we made the trek along the shore to cave. There is also a tour available that includes kayaks, but at $100 a pop it’s a bit expensive. The cave shots unfortunately didn’t come out to well since the camera was a little fogged up and the flash was off. Anyways, here are the photos.

Some pictures from the inner reef at Majahama, Miyakojima. The outer reef is a great snorkeling point, but we went at low tide and couldn’t get to the outer reef because the water was too low.
