Closed in winter, but you can still drive by to grab a quick photo since it’s on the Wild Atlantic Way!
Crazy queue but crazy good. Get the variety set if you want to share. Crunchy seaweed, fluffy rice, fragrant spam and egg all rolled into one delicious meal.
Yummo ice cream! Homegrown okinawan brand - try the purple sweet potato soft serve!
English menus and don’t forget to select normal table if you can’t sit at the tatami. Rather good Japanese family restaurant food and popular with locals.
Good short hike around this place. Need to climb stairs up the lighthouse for ¥200 so old folks might not be able to make the climb. Small museum at bottom of lighthouse.
Car park is opposite. Don’t miss the green signs. Fluffy pancakes which go well with either sweet ice cream or savoury hamburger, mindblowing!
A little bit of walking from car park required now that a visitor centre is being built. Not too windy and nice views all around the little cape. Don’t trample too much on the grass and stones!
Multilingual menus available and superb shoyu ramen. Coming in to a ramen shop to read manga while eating is a legit thing here. Also fried chicken was not bad!
Cool and varied exhibits here and the whale sharks are definitely the highlight.
Hidden gem of a place inside a market. For hot drip coffee you get to choose your beans. Super coffee aroma.
¥100 sushi! Every 5 plates slotted in gives a chance to win a gachapon which rolls down from above. Cute animation!
Good for a nice walk but not much learning. Nice views. There are two parts to the gardens separated by a road.
To go into the cave, wait in the small room on the left and register your party on the list. A guide will bring you there. No food and no photos in the cave shrine!
Efficient, fuss-free and there’s a free shuttle which brings you to Akamine Station too!
Tax free counter on level 1! Combine all your purchases in Ryubo >¥5,000 to get the tax refund.
If you head up the narrow spiral stairs to the 3rd floor you’ll need to take the lift back down to order your food. There’s a useful CCTV to show how crowded it is upstairs. Curly fries FTW!
Always always always finish your noodles to the bottom! This Ichiran is the biggest joy!
Kind of well-stocked but rather weird multi-level Donki where you might need to pay on every floor cos of the anti-theft barriers.
Sweet potato and savoury cheese in a tart = perfect balance in every bite. There’s cheese milk bubble tea here too!
Freshly fried snacks and unique Calbee products with Okinawan ingredients! Nomnomnom!
Convenient location (monorail 4 stops from airport; park opposite for runs; Family Mart downstairs), comfortable room, decent breakfast. Great getaway.
Funny and engaging tour guide! Worth the guided tour. It’s small and compact, good for a short tour before heading back to the temple bar area.
