Unique Experience🐟

マルヨシ鮮魚店
@moeka
Local fish store. You can order Sashimi plate for the desired amount/price. I would recommend 500yen per person. From my experience, 1000yen was too much even when I only eat Sashimi and Natto.

Surprisingly Dangerous Creature

Gomamongara (Titan triggerfish!) are generally found at the bottom of the ocean and seldom swim in the surface to mid-water. These fish are often encountered at famous snorkeling sites in Okinawa. What makes them dangerous is that, if you invade their territory, they may attack and bite. They have sturdy jaws capable of chewing up shells and coral, along with sharp teeth. They are said to be more feared than sharks among divers. Exercise extra caution during the breeding season from June to August, when aggression increases.

Be aware this guy too
