Pretty much the entire island is surrounded by reef.

What are you wanting to know?

this is about the best that I can do.. this is the local LFS.. think they harvest almost every coral around the island. Im sure there might still be some that they cant or wont touch.

well...if you want links to shops, here is coral culture okinawa

also, on the southern tip of the island, there is a reef that has a bunch of endangered coral within the reef. Its called blue..... something if I remeber right...it was in the Okinawa Living about 3 months ago.
As I mentioned, there are tons of books with pictures and probably some really good reading, but I cant read it. lol.
