Hiroshi Point
Picturesque site on Kosrae's south side that, unusually, is not completely covered in hard coral, adding to its appeal; grey reef sharks are likely in the current and a nursery of 5–25 baby blacktip reef sharks has been reported nearby. A drift dive with soft corals; one source also mentions hammerheads.
