The first spot we will introduce here is easily accessible by car, which can be reached in about 30 minutes by car from Miyako Airport, the gateway to Miyako Island.
When one thinks of Okinawa Prefecture and Miyako Island, one imagines endless stretches of beautiful ocean, and this beach is one of the most beautiful beaches on Miyako Island.
The beautiful sea is a must-see when you come to Miyakojima, Okinawa Prefecture, and is highly satisfying whether you take pictures or simply enjoy the sea.




This beach, which is also described as a "phantom "beach, which appears at low tide, is very fantastic and beautiful. This accidental appearance is what makes this "beach so rare and romantic. And the sandy beaches that emerge are very vivid, from pure white sand to pale cobalt blue waters.
At low tide, you can put your feet on the beach and feel as if you are connected to the ocean, as if you are back in nature. The waves are calm and the beach is very peaceful, and there are many fans who wait for this beach. Some people wait for low tide nearby, and it never gets crowded, but it is so worth it.

Miyakojima Sunset Beach




This is a spot where you can enjoy a very gorgeous nature, not far from the city center of Miyakojima. It is a classic place to visit, as it is an area that is very close to being an installation site. You can see the beautiful ocean from the Irabu Bridge, one of the best bridges on the island, as well as from the nearby sandy beach. Those who do not want to get their feet dirty on the sandy beach or those who do not want to get tired from walking a lot can also enjoy the sea and the sunset with relative ease. This is an enjoyable spot that can be recommended to a very wide range of people.




As the name of the beach suggests, this is a gorgeous spot where you can enjoy the exquisite matching of the setting sun and the sea. The sky at sunset is a very gradational sky, and what started out as a fresh blue gradually turns into a bright and robust red. Observing this maturation from a fixed point is a very enjoyable way to experience the mysteries of the earth. The sea and the sky are a privilege to be enjoyed in Japan, an island nation, and you can fully experience their charms. Please come and enjoy the gorgeous nature that is typical of Okinawa Prefecture.

Kamamaling Park




This park has become an installation park that is becoming extremely popular in recent years. It has always been a favorite spot for local residents, but its distinctive monument has become a spot where popularity has been ignited and scoped by Instagram in a reverse-importation manner.

This is a huge park located in Miyakojima City, and its scale makes it one of the best in the city. The park has a huge slide in the shape of Shisa, the guardian god of Okinawa Prefecture. It is so large that it gives visitors an overwhelming sense of power and realism, as if it were a monster from a video game. It has a sense of scale as if it is about to start moving at any moment. You can take Instagram-worthy photos with the same sense of realism even if you take photos up close, and you can catch a glimpse of the surrounding sea and life on Miyako Island from the observation deck, which is set up in a way that is uniquely Okinawan. Please enjoy taking pictures while enjoying the charm and nature of Miyako Island.

Blue Turtle




This is a relatively new store, having opened in 2018, but it has quickly emerged as one of Miyakojima's most popular Instagram spots. Located right in front of the beach, the cafe's name, which translates to "blue turtle ", also shows the respect it has for the nature and animals of Okinawa Prefecture. The white exterior is very refreshing and matches the open atmosphere of Okinawa Prefecture, and it looks beautiful when you take pictures outside. However, as a café, the food inside and the view from the inside are also highlights of the place, making it an enjoyable spot.

This café has very attractive terrace seating with a view of the beach in front of you. You can eat Okinawan-style gourmet food while feeling the freshness of the Okinawan sunshine and wind. The most popular time to visit the cafe is during lunch time, when you can enjoy a wide variety of menu items, such as mango sweets and nearly 100 kinds of drinks. At night, the restaurant functions as a dining room, where you can enjoy stylish Italian food with the colorful atmosphere of Miyako Island at night. The ultimate point is that you can enter the restaurant and eat or drink after swimming in your bathing suit on the beach in front of the restaurant. It is possible to enjoy the beach all the way from the ocean, and this unboundedness is also attractive because it is foreign in a good sense of the word.

MYKcafe




This cafe is also located near the beach. The light blue color matches the color of the ocean and is very refreshing and beautiful. The signboard made from a surfboard is a very Okinawan trademark. The cute look, the cute interior, and the friendliness of the manager combine to create a very nice atmosphere at this cafe. Take-out is also available, and it is well-liked by many people.




This café, with the beach in front of it, has a very extensive take-out menu. The most popular items are smoothies and parfaits. The sweet treats are served in originally designed cups and are very colorful, matching the atmosphere of Okinawa Prefecture. One of the most Instagram-worthy drinks is the one with artificial flowers stuck directly into the smoothie, which is very powerful. Hibiscus and other flowers typical of Okinawa Prefecture give a tropical breeze to the food and make it a precious memory. With this drink in one hand, I took a picture with the ocean in the other. You are guaranteed to get some very nice pictures.

pynagama blueboots (Leuciscus pynagama)




Lastly, we would like to introduce a stylish cafe located right in front of Pina Gama Beach. Located right in front of the ocean, both terrace seating and take-out are very popular. The fresh and clean interior of the restaurant is reminiscent of an Okinawan beach, giving it a very bright impression.




This restaurant, which is relatively large for a café and can be enjoyed both outside and inside, has a large and varied menu. The most notable item is the patty dog, a luxurious sandwich of Miyako Kuroge Wagyu beef. The patty dog is a bold looking and tasty dish, and the beef's flavor can be enjoyed to the fullest. This dog is perfect for a hearty lunch and is very satisfying. The menu also includes a variety of other standard sweets, such as soft-serve ice cream filled with fruit, which is sure to be instagram-worthy. The menu uses dragon fruit, mangoes, and other fruits that are typical of Okinawa in abundance, and the visual impact of the menu is outstanding. Enjoy eating and taking pictures.
