If you are planning a trip to Kitanicho, Okinawa, you definitely can’t miss what is known as the “American Resort” – American Village! This place is truly a characteristic town that combines trends, food and photography, with stunning views of sunsets and a fireworks show that is staged on time at 8pm. It is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the exotic atmosphere! A quick overview of American Village itinerary highlights Located in Kitani-cho, American Village feels like walking into a city on the West Coast of the United States, lined with colorful buildings, coconut trees and sunshine. Whether you stroll through the commercial streets during the day and feel the lively atmosphere, or enjoy the fireworks and lights under modern architecture at night, there is a different feeling. Close to the seaside, the setting sun and rivers and lakes complement each other. You can take beautiful photos while dining. It is perfect for friends, couples or families. American Village Day Trip Recommended Inventory 1️⃣ American Village Business Street Stroll During the day, the American Village is super vibrant, a group of people walking slowly, shopping while shopping trendy items or cultural and creative souvenirs, the background is colorful buildings and palm trees, casual shots are very IG-able. 2️⃣ Must-eat authentic restaurants & dessert shops There are many American burgers, pizza, barbecue, and many Okinawa specialties. If you are a dessert lover, I sincerely recommend a few coffee shops in the village that focus on American style: - A&W American Fast Food (Signature Root Beer Definitely a Must Try) - Blue Seal ice cream (super variety of flavors to choose from) - Depot Island Café (chill environment, great for dessert photos) 3️⃣ Sunset seaside photo American Village is located by the sea, and it is recommended to go in the evening to be the most beautiful. The rivers and lakes match the setting sun, and the whole town is dyed golden orange, with a scene of happiness. At the end of the commercial street is the seaside plaza, so you don't have to worry about finding a place for photography. 4️⃣ Fireworks show at 8pm There will be a fireworks show every night at 8pm, with modern architecture and night lighting. If you want a comfortable seat, you can book a seat at the seaside restaurant in advance and enjoy the fireworks while eating. Practical strategies and tips 📍 Address: Mihama, Chatan, Nakagami District, Okinawa 904-0115 Japan ⏰ Opening hours: 10:00-22:00 year-round 🚗 Transportation: Okinawa bus or self-drive is the most convenient, from Naha by bus No. 120 takes about 1 hour. American Village has a large parking lot for easy parking. 🍔 Food recommendation: If you want to try authentic American style and balance the Okinawa atmosphere, A&W, Depot Island Café must definitely be included in the itinerary. 📸 Photo tips: Arrive an hour before sunset, the most beautiful light. The best location for fireworks view is near the seaside plaza. 📝 Personal experience: American Village sunset is beautiful, it is recommended to stroll the shops, sit down after dinner and wait for the fireworks, the overall rhythm is leisurely not rushed. The atmosphere is especially good after the lighting of modern buildings at night, which feels very suitable for couples or parents, or even three or five close friends together to chill.
