Blue Cave & Sea Turtles
The Blue Cave is a mysterious spot hidden beneath the cliffs on the northeast side of Irabu Island. Just a short distance away, near the reef’s edge, is a place where you can often see sea turtles resting peacefully. Both are unique snorkeling locations on Irabu Island that require an experienced guide and boat access.
