Has anyone dove the pyramid off the coast of Yonaguni? If so, let me know about your experience there. I will be traveling to the area in a couple of months.
Yonaguni, Okinawa

It's not a pyramid. Depending on whom you ask, it's either a quarry for stone slabs or a natural phenomenon. I was there in 98 and 2000. The island is known for the hammerheads which swing by during winter, and the deep sea fishing (marlin). There's a golf course there too. Dive shops are Aratake San's and the Yonaguni Dive Center (they have the bigger dive boat but speak no english). I believe that Rick Ruth is now there too (He use to run Fathoms Dive in Okinawa) and is your best bet if you don't speak fluent japanese.
Diving there is pretty boring if you don't do the monument sites and the hammer head (blue water) dives.
