    This cafe is located near the intersection of the road leading to Sunayama Beach on western Miyako Island.

The cafe has irregular holidays and its hours are subject to change, so we recommend checking their social media accounts before visiting.

    Lovely spot with good food and very friendly staff. We had the gapao chicken and the tacorice, both tasty and fresh, and some drinks. A great place to eat/refresh when visiting Sunayama beach. Staff...

Okinawa Areas

around-area-map

Let go of your image of a busy, ordered Japan and replace it with crystal-clear waters, white sand beaches, and relaxing folk music: You’ve arrived in Okinawa. A world away from the high intensity of Tokyo, Okinawans appear to live a laid-back beach life on this paradisiacal tropical island that lies in the middle of the East China Sea almost 1,000 kilometers south of mainland Japan’s most southern tip. Home to a spattering of islands, prepare yourself to discover underwater caves, star-shaped sand, and an island culture sometimes unrecognizable from mainland Japan.
