Manzamo, Onna Village, Okinawa: An Elephant on the Azure Sea

The third stop, "Manzamo," features the must-see giant Elephant Trunk Rock and a vast grassland that can accommodate ten thousand people. Why is it called Manzamo? The origin of Manzamo: "Mo" in Okinawa represents grassland, and "Manzamo" means a vast grassland where 10,000 people can sit down. It is said that a Ryukyuan king at that time gave it this name. You can imagine Manzamo as a seaside park. The area is not large; it takes about 10 minutes to walk around the coastal path. Including taking photos and enjoying the sea breeze, approximately 20-30 minutes is sufficient.

Cape Manzamo and its surroundings (Apogama and Uduigama) It's best to start the route from the cape itself (preferably right at the opening, as there's a full hour before the tour groups start). Then, head toward the parking lot, turn right, and continue along the road until you reach a closed road. The road is closed, but for cars. Climb over. Then go straight ahead and look for four paths into the forest on the right side. Muster up your courage and enter the dense forest to be greeted by incredible views. At the end of the route, you'll find the "crown jewel" of the route: a descent into a cave. There's a beautiful beach there and opportunities to explore. Bring food and drinks with you, as there are no shops for the next 3 km. Along the way, there's a lunch spot with beautiful scenery and a view of the cape from the other side. And if you're a snorkeler, bring a mask and coral reefs, as reviews say the seabed and reefs here are incredibly beautiful (there's a reason there's a dive center here). The perfect half-day itinerary is ready! Then, it's time to head off to catch the sunset on one of the island's most beautiful beaches.
