This place is very beautiful and convenient, with plenty of parking. When you enter the first building, you can buy tickets, visit souvenir shops, and enjoy a variety of restaurants—perfect for relaxing before heading out to the cape. It can get quite hot, so bring sunscreen or an umbrella. The cape and beach are absolutely stunning—a must-visit when you’re in Okinawa!

Cape Maeda is an absolute gem for snorkeling and scuba diving enthusiasts visiting Okinawa. The moment you step into the water, you're greeted by an astonishing variety of sea life. From colorful schools of fish to the occasional sea turtle, sea snake, or even a large octopus, the underwater world here is nothing short of spectacular. One of the highlights is swimming along the reef to reach the famed Blue Cave. The cave itself is a mesmerizing sight, with its deep blue hues creating an almost otherworldly ambiance. It’s an excellent spot for families, providing a safe yet thrilling adventure for kids and adults alike. The popularity of Cape Maeda means it can get quite busy, especially on weekends and holidays. To truly enjoy the experience, I recommend arriving early in the morning. This not only helps you beat the crowds but also offers a chance to see more active marine life. Facilities around Cape Maeda are well-maintained, with showers and rental shops available for convenience. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to assist with gear or provide tips on the best spots to explore. Overall, Cape Maeda delivers an unforgettable experience, blending natural beauty with an abundance of marine life. Whether you’re a seasoned diver or a first-time snorkeler, this destination is a must-visit on Okinawa.

Pretty nice public beach next to Ana Intercontinental Manza Beach Resort. Calm water with marked area for swimming. There is rental gear provided by the resort for guests. The activities included float, snorkel, etc. There is activity center for snorkel, sunset cruise.

Pretty good place if you want to enjoy pool, fun things with kids and also relax. Rooms are bit smaller so need to cram everything specially bathroom but, since there is whole beach to go out to considering that it is ok.

Good beach with kids - need water shoes as it is filled with seashells. Umbrella and chair rent in the tiger beach center . Beach cafe open currently on weekends and serves really good poke bowl among other things

It is a beautiful beach. Even you're not guest of the hotel you can experience various marine activities they offer. Due to weather condition I was not able to try the zip line. But I did the snorkeling. It was my first time and the staffs were all so friendly and helpful. The snorkeling experience was amazing.

Nabee Beach 🚙 put “ナビービーチ駐車場” in Google maps and park there, free parking lot 🚶 walk 1-2 min from the parking lot, past some buildings and shops to the beach 🛟 lifeguard on duty 🧺 covered picnic tables 🤿 must wear a life jacket for snorkeling ⛱️ rental place for all kinds of equipment rentals close by

You are able to come here, enjoy the view of the ocean while reading a good book of your choice. There is a public library upstairs from the museum.

A beautiful beach with crystal clear water. This beach is located behind Okashigoten Onna Branch, and you can reach it by going down the stairs next to the store. I visited in September, and although it rained occasionally in the afternoon, luckily the weather was very hot when we went to this beach. We traveled by bus, but buses in Okinawa are often not on time, which forced us to cut many plans from our itinerary. I recommend renting a car for a more efficient trip and to save time.

Aerospace Exploration Agency Okinawa Space Communication Center 🚘 Google maps gets you to the correct location, paved parking lot 💴 free 🔭 small JAXA space station museum, some hands on activities for kids 📷 don’t miss the station where you can print your own astronaut postcard

(+) Beautiful stretch of beach / coastline. (+) Easy access from sidewalk. (+) Unattended in winter (off season), so perfect place for swimming or sunbathing if you're staying at a nearby resort that has the No Swimming winter rule. (+) Free of charge. (+) Seems to be part of Okinawa Coast Quasi-National Park (-) NO signs indicating that it's Tiger Beach. (-) Unclear how much of it is public and what "belongs" to Hotel Monterey (-) No bathrooms or any facilities (showers, changing rooms, etc.)

Beautifully ocean & fabulous rocks. Good weather.

I grew up going to a library regularly, so having one 10 minutes away from me with this quality is really comforting. Although the library is only one floor, it is managed very well and very nice to just read accompanied by a beautiful view or reading with your child. There is a "ohanashi room" that seems to be dedicated for this. There is also a terrace (one table in 2nd floor) and observatory room in 3rd floor if you are hungry and want to eat your bento. Will definitely regularly go here several times a month!

A beautiful place to take a stroll and take in the gorgeous landscape. These castle ruins have nice paved roads through woods and views of the water and nearby city. I love being surrounded by nature and walking here allows you to recharge.

One of the “secret” beaches I’ve been to! We saw the little blue fishies in the summer!
