You may have heard of The Old Man In The Mountain but here in Okinawa we have "Gorilla Chop Rock. This rock formation is a common enough site in Okinawa but if you look close you can see that it looks like a Gorilla doing a karate chop.
The location itself is a popular dive location in the Motobu area. It is easy to find as it sits just before the Motobu Port and has it's own parking area.
For those of us who are not divers this location is still a site to see.
The beach is small but beautiful and although it is immediately off the main road being below the level of the road somehow makes it very quiet. This is a great place to listen to the rush of the ocean.
Now, as I am not a diver I can't tell you about the actual dive location itself. In doing some research on the rock formation I found some dive sites which informed me that this is a great dive location for all times of the year. I also found some images of the area which seems to look nice. If you are a diver and have tried out this location and/or are going to try it now please leave a comment and let us know what you thought. This will help us let our viewers and readers if it's worth the trip as far as diving goes.
