Hatenohama

Reviewed By letsgolabjp - Osaka, Japan

We visited a couple of months ago this stunning island, Hate no Hama! ???????? is an uninhabited island located approximately 5 km away from Kumejima, Okinawa ???? Hate no Hama Is made up of 3 Islands: ????“Menuhama” ????”Nakanuhama” ????”Hatinuhama” Is so beautiful that has appeared several times in commercials and even in Google! It’s a place that I consider you should put on your bucket list ☺️❤️???????? Access: You can visit Hate no Hama by taking a tour from Kumejima, it will take you about 30 mins by boat ❤️ (the hotel will help you arrange the tour so no worries ????) You’ll LOVE it! ????❤️ We will do a review of different hotels in Kumejima soon so don’t miss it! Don’t forget to subscribe to our YouTube channel so you don’t miss any of our adventures! ❤️

Tokashiki-jima Island

Reviewed By icchen11 - Hsinchu, Taiwan

The beautiful Tokashiki island (as part of of the Keramashoto national park) is just 35min (by speed boat) or 70min (by ferry) from Naha, but it's not heavily visited at all. Based on other's suggestion, we chose to visit the Aharen beach and it was indeed excellent ! From the beach, one may take a boat (1000 Yen/person, round trip) to the Hanari island, which is just several hundred meters outside the beach. There are two small peaks to climb on the Hanari island, and the views from top are just fabulous! There are coral reefs around, great for snorkeling. Recommend 1.5 -2 hours if care to snorkeling. After returning to the Aharen beach, from the "Youth center" one may get to a pavilion (vista point) to the north of the beach. It offers some awesome panoramic views as well ! From the vista point, note that there are 2-3 smaller beaches further to the north -- they are worth visiting too ! There were no other tourists on the day of our visit -- so we had the place all by ourselves for a few hours! The water is clear, sand clean, views beautiful, and lots of sea shells ! We spent a couple of very relaxing and memorable hours there... (took the 4pm bus for the 5pm speed boat back to Naha.) It's definitely the best day-tour for our 5-day vacation to Okinawa! Will visit it again next time ...
