Japan is known for sushi, ninja, Mt. Fuji, and the bullet train but let's not forget ?Japan is an island! In fact, Tokyo has some of the best scuba diving in Japan in an area known as Ogasawara, the Galapagos of the East. It's a 24 hour ferry ride from the city into the Pacific, 1000 km (600 miles) away. Since it's only accessible by boat (no flights) it's become a paradise for scuba divers with marine life and amazing visibility that will make you rethink leaving your scuba gear at home!
