    This inland sea located in Nago City is surrounded by the Motobu Peninsula, Yagaji Island, and Oujima Island. Tidal flats have formed in the inland sea, which is a habitat for shellfish and other rare organisms. The area has also been designated as a national Wildlife Protection Area due to the high number of migratory birds that visit. The Arashiyama Observatory in Goga, Nago City is known for its sweeping views of the inland sea.

  • Nakahara Baba Avenue of Pines
    Travel / Tourism
    Okinawa Kunigami-gun Nakijin Mura Koechi
    This row of pine trees is located along National Route 505 in Nakijin Village, Okinawa Prefecture. The approximately 30-meter-wide row of pine trees continues for about 250 meters to the gate of Nakijin Elementary School. It was once a horseriding ground that frequently served as a venue for regional folk events, horse races, and other functions in the pre-war era. The Luchu pines are said to have been planted by the 18th-century statesman Sai On. Although there were once horse-riding grounds all over Okinawa, most of them have been developed into farm land or residential areas, making this one a valuable example of a place that still looks as it did centuries ago.

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.
