A sunset photo I took at Hotel Moon Beach in Okinawa. The hotel is beautiful and open. So tropical looking. Lots of water activities and you can go to their private island to do diving and snorkeling. The food is good but less options in the menu. Their wifi is weak so my friend and I didn’t use it. 4 out of 5 stars for me. #naturalwonders#beautifulhotel#summervacation#beachvacation#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

Awayk, a hidden gem cafe in Okinawa, is the perfect place to spend a relaxing time. The calm atmosphere of the interior is characterized by its simple yet warm decor. From the windows, you can enjoy the beautiful nature of Okinawa and feel the pleasant breeze. The menu features dishes and drinks made with fresh local ingredients, with homemade sweets and specialty coffee being particularly popular. You can fully enjoy Okinawa's food culture while spending a leisurely time. --------------------------------------------- 📍 2181-1 Daifukuhara, Yagaji, Nago City, Okinawa Prefecture 🕰️ 9:00-15:00 (weekend 8:00-17:00) 🏷️ closed : Thu ---------------------------------------------

I visited a cafe called 'Awayk' in Nakijin Village, Okinawa! 📍 2181-1 Daifukuhara, Yagawa, Nakijin Village, Kunigami District, Okinawa Prefecture The location was absolutely wonderful! I went just after lunchtime, so I had the entire place to myself and could fully enjoy the space! I ordered a dessert plate with cheesecake, tiramisu, and warabi mochi! It was so relaxing to watch the birds flying by the sea looking for food through the window while enjoying the delicious desserts! The lunch looked really tasty too, so I definitely want to go back and try it!

Okinawa Tonkatsu Shokudo Shimabutaya

A lovely sandy #beach near the Blue Cave. Easy access from the main road and through a nice vegetation patch. There are also some nice small #caves around (or shelters) to explore and take scenic photos from within.

#japantrip The best breakfast place in Onna! I went in the morning, couldn’t try the brunch. I recommended the French toast at break time (8 —10am) and the caramel macchiato. The fluffy pancake sandwich with sweet potato was also delicious! However the cafe was quite small, may have to wait during peak hours.Lovely little cafe right next door to our villa. Though it was a little small, the all day breakfast was smashing! Everything freshly made!

I went mountain climbing for the first time in Okinawa⛰ Located in Nago, Katsuu Peak is a spot where you can enjoy the breathtaking views of Okinawa! I climbed up quite briskly without taking breaks, so it took me less than 40 minutes one way, but if you climb slowly, it might take about an hour. By the way, this place is not a cliff, there is a footing below♥️ If you adjust the angle of the camera so that the footing can't be seen, you can take a photo like this😍 However, falling is still dangerous, so be careful! Advice for those who are going💕 From a certain point, you'll have to use your hands to climb the rocks, so wear something easy to move in☝️ The top is very windy🌪 and since it's a rocky area, falling would be quite painful.

It's a one-hour drive from Naha. Kouri Island, a remote island connected to the main island of Okinawa by the Kouri Bridge, is famous for its beautiful sea views. Driving across the straight Kouri Bridge is also recommended! Here are some spots on Kouri Island where you can enjoy the beautiful sea views🎵 Information on hotels with beautiful sea views is also available! 📍Tinu Beach (Heart Rock) The popular Tinu Beach features two heart-shaped rocks side by side. There are three parking lots nearby, so no worries! The high transparency of the sea is also good👍 Address: 2593-2 Kouri, Nakijin Village, Kunigami District, Okinawa Prefecture 905-0406 Parking: 'Tokeihara Parking Lot', 'Chura Parking', and 'Ganso Heart Rock Parking Lot' are all nearby and recommended 📝Charges (from 100 to 300 yen) 📍Kouri Bridge 📝Kouri Island Bridge South End Parking Lot 📝Kouri Ocean Tower Parking Lot Parking at these two parking lots and taking pictures with the Kouri Island bag is recommended Both are free of charge. 📍Away Okinawa Kouri Island Resort Address: 480-2 Kouri, Nakijin Village, Kunigami District, Okinawa Prefecture 905-0406 A hotel with all rooms offering an ocean view, where you can see the beautiful sea from any room!

I found this cafe in Kin Town on the east coast in north-central Okinawa [Neighborhood Coffee House] A cafe standing alone in a quiet residential area. There is no sign, so I thought this might be the entrance. When I went inside, I found stylish interiors and dried flowers. A lovely space spread out before me. This cafe seems to be popular for its homemade sweets. When I went there just before closing time, all the sweets were sold out. This time I only got a drink to go. Next time I'd like to spend some time relaxing in the cafe with the sweets. I recommend this cafe to anyone who wants to visit a hidden gem of a cafe in Okinawa! If you're in Kin Town, be sure to stop by. [Neighborhood Coffee House] Address: 10805 Kin, Kin-cho, Kunigami-gun, Okinawa TEL: 098-989-0884 Business hours: 10:00-16:00 (9:00-17:00 on weekends) Closed: Irregular Parking: Available #Domestic travel #Okinawa #Okinawa travel #Okinawa sightseeing #Okinawa cafe #Okinawa cafe tour

#okinawatrip A nice place to visit on a hot summer day. There is ample parking, clean restrooms and, plenty of places to sit in the shade. A large playground for children and, sprinklers in wading pools of water, will keep them entertained. A great place for a family picnic and there's always something, to discover for a photographer. Great place in summer!!!

The transportation in Okinawa is not very convenient, especially in the north. If you want to go there, you can choose to rent a car, join a group or charter a day trip: You can’t rent a car without an international driver’s license❌ I’m afraid I won’t be able to choose a group if I get up early❌ So I chose a one-day chartered tour that was not tiring and enjoyable✅ One-day tour departs at 10:40 and totals 10 hours: Depart after checking out from Onna Village Resort Hotel ➡️Manzamo ➡️Beautiful Aquarium ➡️Kouri Island ➡️American Village ➡️Check-in at Kokusai-dori Hotel Onna Village➡️Manzamo 🚗15 minutes ⛰️Manzamo: A lawn that can accommodate a million people ⏰9:00-19:00 🎫Tickets are 100 yen per person, free for children under 6 years old You can take photos at the entrance but it is expensive. You can also experience Ryukyu costumes. The price is not expensive. After entering, you can basically walk around along the plank road. The scenery reminds me of the blue cliffs of Zakynthos. The sea is so beautiful. Manzamo➡️Beautiful Aquarium 🚗 1 hour 🐬Beautiful aquarium: clear and beautiful ocean, mysterious whale shark 🎫Adults 2,180 yen, high school students 1,440 yen, elementary and middle school students 710 yen, under 6 years old free ‼ ️Buy tickets in advance at the airport or nearby convenience stores to get a 10% discount ⏰ March-September 8:30-20:00; October to February 8:30-18:30 (stops 1 hour before closing); ✨Free outdoor dolphin show: 10:30 11:30 13 15 17 o'clock ✨Feed the dolphins: 500 yen "Kuroshio Sea" tank feeding: 9:30 15:00 17:00 It's worth a visit. It takes 2 hours to watch the manatees and turtles, then watch the dolphin show, and finally enter the museum to visit. Beautiful Aquarium➡️Kouri Island 🚗40 minutes 🏖️Kouri Island: Island connected by a bridge, heart-shaped rock I took photos on the bridge, but didn't go to the beach. I didn't see the Heart-Shaped Rock. It's a tourist attraction that would be hard to miss if you didn't go, and it wouldn't be that interesting if you went. I left after having a light meal, which was Internet celebrity shrimp rice. Kouri Island➡️American Village 🚗1 hour and 40 minutes 🇺🇸American Village: I watched the most beautiful sunset, and the dopamine color scheme made me feel good. There were Christmas decorations all around, and it looked even better at night! ! I walked around the store for a while, the food was not cheap, and the burger was really good. American Village ➡️Kokusai Expressway 🚗50 minutes It was already around 19:00 when we left the American Village. We missed the evening rush hour and there was still a bit of a traffic jam. At the end of the day with a full schedule🔚, it is still recommended to charter a car when changing hotels, which can save a lot of trouble. Special thanks to my chartered bus driver, a very nice Fujian handsome guy🇨🇳, super low price on the whole network, 10 hours of Chinese service, considerate and careful explanation, and also prepared water, thank you very much🙏

Marveled at the northern tip of the mainland #okinawa, Cape Hedo offers one of the most scenic view the Mother Earth availed to the humanity. Entire loop around the mainland Okinawa takes about 10 or so hours by car from #naha, the center of Okinawa. This loop has numerous attractions and activities that will surely make you fall in love with Okinawa, the only subtropical region of Japan. Take as many stops as you’d like if you’re doing the loop drive around mainland Okinawa to cool off in the surrounding #ocean. The ocean around Okinawa is super clear that you’ll be able to see the bottom of the ocean. #bucketlistreboot
