This was a really cool experience! My partner and I just wondered around taking our time to enjoy the atmosphere and animals. You can feed the animals for a 200yen fee. The area is clean, it is fairly sized. Kids in the park seemed to enjoy it. There are park benches to enjoy a seat and food. There is a restaurant and cafe. It is 20,00yen per adult. If you have time and the money I would recommend 😊

The place is very beautiful for sure but the admission fee is SO high it’s crazy Workers here are very kind & definitely take care of the animals Cafe here has a limited menu of cute desserts but most seem to be lacking flavor. I do NOT recommend the churros Gift shop here has cute stuff but pretty similar throughout. Even after admission fees, lots of other small activities like entering certain exhibits is even more money on top Definitely recommend checking out the area at night. I went at night before & it’s so much pretty. More relaxing too with the aesthetic

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! This is the perfect place to spend the day, especially if you love animals. We were able to pet and feed monkeys, capybaras, goats, an armadillo, and some massive tortoises. My dream of finally meeting a capybara came true! It was such an incredible, up-close experience. They also have bird show, a gift shop with gelato, and a petting zoo. During certain times of the year, they put on a spectacular night light display that I highly recommend seeing. Animals during the day and beautiful lights at night, it doesn’t get better than that. Such a special place to have right next door, and I can’t wait to go back! Tips: -Bring YEN change! 200 yen per cup of food to feed the animals. 300 yen just for the monkey admission fee -Appy bug spray and sunscreen -There is a restaurant and other places to buy snacks and drinks -You can pay to go fishing with bamboo poles. Catch and release

A wonderful place to spend an afternoon with the family. The botanical garden offers a great mix of nature, relaxation, and fun activities for all ages. One of the highlights is the variety of animals you can interact with: capybaras, armadillo, monkeys, goats, ducks, turtoises, and more. The grounds are beautifully maintained, and there are plenty of shaded paths and scenic spots to explore. It’s an enjoyable, laid-back experience that’s perfect for kids and adults alike. Highly recommended for a peaceful and entertaining day out in Okinawa.

A must see botanical garden where you can feed the animals. In every spot for animals to see, you can feed them for ¥200. Souvenir store is after you enter the garden, there's drinks and snacks to buy. There's guinea pigs, rabbits and a dog for you to pet. There's a separate spot for monkeys and a capybara to feed but has a separate entrance fee ¥1000, including food to feed the monkeys. Leave all your stuff outside their fence because they will steal your stuff. We went on a hot and sunny day, wish they have mist on random sposts as you wonder around the garden to avoid heat exhaustion. But overall, it's a nice place for everyone.

Theres is light bulbs everywhere. If u have smaller kids its a nice place to visit during the day feedibg the different animals. I imagine it's also a lovely place to visit in the evenings when the lights are switched on and you're in love. But for a singel traveller during the day Naha royal garden is a better alternative.

Setting the reviews, I had high hopes. Unfortunately, despite the animals and nature, this place is a scam. The price is super high, and what you get is super loud music everywhere, everything costing extra and lights that are worse than some American front yards for Christmas. Whatever you do, do not waste your money here. Also, being close to military airfield, the fighter jets are causing to lose hearing soon.

140 balls for one coin. you need to have either a thousand note or coin. range is short but can do the practice. good enough.

Just be aware you can only hire the bay no club hire is available and nothing to inform anyone internationally that you need to BYO clubs...

(Translated by Google) This golf range is loved by locals. People gather from early in the morning and stay busy until late at night. It costs 500 yen for 140 balls, but actually 144 balls come out of the machine. Many people come here to practice before going golfing. Although the distance is short at 80 yards, it is enough to determine the trajectory of the ball. After all, it's the lowest price in the area, and probably the cheapest in Okinawa as well. On weekends, it can get crowded and you may have to wait in line. If you keep going, you will gradually get a better idea of ​​when the time is available. This is a social gathering place for the elderly, and there are many people who chat for a long time, so it is better to reserve a seat and not chat. It's crowded, so I'd like you to give up your seat and have a chat. Also, there are only two lefty seats, but they are often used by right-handed players, so I think it would be a good idea to ask them to give up their lefty seats. In the morning, regulars practice in their underwear, some with their upper bodies naked. Golf is a gentleman's sport. This is a golf range in Okinawa, but there is also a ``teacher'' here. In the morning, they are on the first floor near the toilets, and on the second floor they are in the middle. The teaching demon will approach the woman, but he should respond calmly and not make eye contact. Please rest assured that if we don't get along well, I won't come to teach you next time. Compared to other microwave ovens, there are fewer women, especially young ones. I wonder why it's cheap? (Original) 地元の人に愛されるゴルフレンジです。 朝早くから人が集まり夜遅くまで賑わっています。 500円で140球ですが実際には144球機械から出ます。ゴルフに行く前にここで練習して行かれる方も結構いますね。距離は80ヤードと短いですが球筋を見極めるには十分です。なんと言っても地域で最安値、沖縄でも一番安いのではないでしょうか？ 週末は混み合って順番待ちが発生します。通っていれば空いてくる時間がだんだんわかって来ます。ここは高齢者の社交場というかお喋りが長くて席を確保して打たない方が割にいます。混み合っているのですから席を譲ってお喋りをして頂きたいものですね。またレフティが2席しかないのですが右打ちの方が使用していることが多いのでレフティ席を譲って下さいと言えば良いかと思います。朝方は常連さんが下着で練習したり、上半身ハダカの方がいますね、ゴルフは、紳士なスポーツです。沖縄のゴルフレンジであるあるですがここにも「教え魔」がいます。午前中は、１階トイレに近い場所に、２階は中央辺りにいます。教え魔は、女性に声を掛けてきますが、淡々と対応をして目線を合わさないことですね。仲良くならなければ次は、教えには来ませんのでご安心くださいね。他所のレンジに比べ女性、特に若い方は少ないです。安いのに何故でしょうね。

(Translated by Google) Recommended for first-time practice on the course. Parking is easy to access from the entrance on the second floor, and down the road to the first floor. [For those who are new to the driving range] Once you've decided on your favorite batting position, place your clubs to reserve your spot → place a green basket in the vending machine in the middle of the aisle and insert 500 yen → When you're done hitting balls, remove your clubs, return the basket, and you're done! At other driving ranges, you often pay and reserve your spot at the reception, then insert your card into the machine at the batting position, but here it's completely self-service. (Original) 初めてコースまわる練習としてオススメ。駐車場は道路から入ってすぐの所は二階、奥に下った所は一階にアクセスしやすいです。【練習場初めての方の参考として】好きな打席を決めたらクラブを置いて場所取り→通路中央らへんの販売機に緑のカゴをセットし500円投入→球を打ち終わったらクラブをどけてカゴを返却して終了！ 他の練習場は受付で支払いと場所決めし、打席の機械にカードを差して行う所が多いですが、こちらは完全セルフです。

(Translated by Google) I visited Okinawa on a business trip and discovered this driving range. 500 yen for 140 balls seems cheap, but the balls are so old they move like knuckleballs lol Well, it's cheap so it's fine. Might be good for people who like to do a lot of approach shots. (Original) 出張で沖縄訪れ、この練習場を発見。 500円で140球は安いと思うけど、球が古すぎで、ナックルボールの様な動きをするwww まぁ、安いから良いでしょう。 アプローチしまくるとか、そう言う人には良いのかも。

(Translated by Google) I think ¥500 for 140 balls is quite cheap. Although the depth is short, it is the best practice place for a little practice ♪ (Original) 140球￥500はかなり安いと思います。 奥行は短いですが、ちょっとした練習には最高の練習所です♪

(Translated by Google) 140 balls 500 yen If you buy a ball yourself, just hit it in an empty batting box. The distance is only up to 70, but you can also hit a driver. Even at this distance, the direction of the ball can be confirmed. (Original) 140球500円 セルフで球を買ったら空いている打席で打つだけ。距離は70の表示までしかないけどドライバーも打てます。この距離でも球の方向性は確認できる。

An absolute must-visit for every Pokémon fan! The store is beautifully designed, full of exclusive Okinawa-themed items and cute displays. The staff is super friendly, and everything feels full of positive energy and nostalgia. A perfect mix of magic, childhood memories, and Japanese attention to detail. Loved every moment here!

Tax free for tourists. Awesome Not crowded on a weekday. Asesome Has some chase cards, sv9 (1 box) and sv8 (10 packs) available.

Hello, I went to the Okinawa Pokémon Center last month and bought a bag. But I didn't use it on the spot. When I got home and wanted to use it, I found that it was a problematic bag. Your company also posted an indicator. Can you help me confirm it? Thank you.

Pokémon Center at Rycom was super fun! The moment I walked in, it felt like stepping right into the Pokémon world, and my excitement just kept going up. They have so many plushies that I honestly couldn’t decide which one to take home

The Pokémon Center in Okinawa is amazing! The store is full of exclusive items you can’t find anywhere else, and the Okinawa-themed Pikachu is super cute. The atmosphere is fun and colorful, perfect for both kids and adults. Staff were friendly and helpful, and it’s definitely a must-visit spot for Pokémon fans traveling to Okinawa!

Welcome to Pokemon Center Okinawa,Japan. It is one of the roughly 17 Pokémon Center branches in Japan. Exclusive Okinawa-themed merchandise.

Best Pokémon center in Japan for me, lots of amazing merch and a lot of stuff I haven’t found in the other centers on the mainland. Also all cards are in stock both times I went.

The sauce for spicy garlic shrimp goes well with rice, shrimp is fresh too. Fried pork belly reminds me of KFC original recipe. Overall, food is nice 👍

Nice taste and sauce is good to go with the rice. Price is above average but worth the try.

Extremely delicious food! The spicy/garlic shrimp and garlic chicken are amazing! Malasadas are really good too. They are made fresh to order, but the taste isn't really like Hawaiian malasadas.

So first off the speed was extremely fast and the shrimp was piping hot (like microwave speed / heat?!?), I literally sat down 10 meters away and had to get right back up because it was ready. Second the taste of creamy garlic shrimp was good. Problem is the shrimp are not cleaned, still has shells, feet and poop! So I have to try and peel the shells while they are covered in extremely hot sauce. I could let it cool down, but I dislike eat food that is supposed to be hot when it’s cold. Once I stripped all the shells off I was left with no sauce, so it just tasted like shrimp. Do people actually eat the shells?!?! Gross! I have been to Hawaii so many times and my shrimp was always cleaned before being served. I have no intention of eating here again, I could just get some shrimp from Aeon and microwave it myself for cheaper.

We usually order the fried garlic pork. The preparation and tatse is inconsistent. Sometimes, it was either too salty, barely salted, or the meat was overcooked/dry. Today (11/11/22), I could barely taste any salt and the meat was not properly separated before frying that it came out thick so one side is not fried. Also, the salad dressing was too spicy. I've ordered here before where it was properly cooked/prepared and it was good. But after these occurrences, it's really killing my appetite and wasting my money. I really hope they would fix this issue. Until then, 1 star.

This place is SO GOOD!!!! I started with the regular garlic shrimp, then spicy garlic, then EXTRA spicy garlic shrimp (it’s a little menu on the top left of the counter) and OMG. Always get the 9 Shrimp Plate. Never disappoints. Their boba is also pretty decent. Their pearls are just the right softness—I get their brown sugar matcha with less sugar/ice and it’s always a treat.

I ordered the mild garlic shrimp plate and a tropical tea with boba. It didn't take long for the electric buzzer to let me know it was ready. The shrimp were large & properly cooked but not fully cleaned out. The garlic sauce was delicious. It turned out to be messy. Thank goodness for the wipe. Anyhow, the rice was mushy but otherwise good. I really, really loved the tropical tea with boba.

Food was pretty good. Definitely had better, but it was edible. Rice and peas didn't have flavor. My son couldn't believe there were no plantains. It's a cute spot.

Food was delicious, the vibe and atmosphere was spot on for a Jamaican restaurant. Good music was playing as we sat outside for our evening dinner listening to the sound of the ocean. Service was nice and accommodating. You can dine in or take out which was nice to have the option as we were tired from traveling all day, which is also great that the restaurant stayed open late. Ate our dinner there and took dessert home.

This is an excellent place to grab lunch! The food was bursting with flavor, and the vibrant atmosphere—complete with great music and stylish décor—made the experience even better. The staff were also friendly and welcoming, adding to the positive vibe. Its location right by the beach is a major plus. After a satisfying meal, you can enjoy a relaxing stroll along the shoreline—perfect for rounding out your visit. If there’s one area for improvement, it would be the pricing. Some items felt a bit steep for what you got—for example, a single glass of lemonade was ¥700, and nearly half of it was just ice. That said, it’s still a solid restaurant overall, and well worth a visit if you're in the area.

Wow, so glad I found this place. Staying at a different hotel on my trip to Okinawa opened up a brand new door of restaurants to try. The food here was plentiful and delicious. The staff was welcoming and helpful. The music was loud but not unbearable. You can still have conversations. If you see this review, please stop before my for the great Jamaican drinks they are serving. I was pleased to no end. I'll probably go back before I leave this trip.

Found this place on a whim when my friend and I were actually supposed to going some else. I will say this food is very very tasty, however tbh it doesn't give me Jamaican vibe especially the jerk. But like I said the flavor is still good. My favorite dish to get here is the jerk chicken taco rice. And their alcohol drinks are on point for sure! Everytime I've been here the vibe is super nice and it's very clean. I love how they are so friendly and the food is made fresh. I would recommend this place and continue to go to this place without hesitation. Oh I forgot to mention I tried the coconut curry shrimp and yes yes yes it is muy delicioso! Update: Tried the jerk chicken salad today with double chicken and double avocado and yum yum yummy! I am stuffed. It was tasty and healthy at the same time. Oh and they have a seasonal okinawa lemonade and wow drink was so refreshing 😌

Flex Bar Chatan is treasure just a few meters from Araha beach. You can even get food and drinks for take-out while sitting on the beach. There are many things that make Flex great. They play jamaican music, they have a mini jamaican accessory store, free parking, nice staff, and above all, the food is delicious!

Really cool chill place on the beach. Vibes are unmatched. Food was a bite on the lite side but had a good amount of flavor. The customer service was really good and I enjoyed myself. Every time I visit Oki I will definitely come here to eat and just enjoy the vibes. Jerk pork was good, a little too much fat for me but I'd order it again. Jerk chicken (boneless) had good flavor. Rice and peas was decent.

The lunch is pricy for what you get. The ground pork curry with mushrooms and cheese was thick and tasted like spaghetti sauce. Yuck. The naan was tiny. Nothing quite measures up to Nepal Spice Kitchen!

I had the chicken and spinach curry, lassi, cheesecake, and chai — everything was delicious, and the hospitality was wonderful. The atmosphere was very relaxing. I visited on a Monday, and the owner was running the place by himself, so just be aware it might take a little time to be served. I’ll definitely be back!

I loveee this place. The BEST curry and naan on island. Very reasonably priced and the hospitality is AMAZING. Yen and card

It's a good curry restaurant with Indian decor. Several different varieties of curry bases to choose from: yogurt, spinach, tomato, and pumpkin. You can also choose what comes in your curry, several types of vegetables or chicken. Don't expect a large Indian or Pakistani menu, it's really a curry restaurant that let's you choose a good curry a couple of things on the side. You get a choice of rice/nan (unfortunately not made fresh but store bought), sets come with simple salad and choice of drink (with three different delicious sweet lassi drinks among other beverages). It's a fun place to go but will not fulfill your desire for a Indian Restaurant if you like different types of cuisine or good food cooked in a tandoori oven. The inside has an interesting foreign feel and tables are set up to create private space, but the wooden beams in the place are low enough a taller person will have to duck at times when walking to your table. There are also a couple spots that there is a small step up that may cause someone to trip if not careful Service is excellent! Just ring the bell and the nice waitress will help you with whatever you need. Overall a good quick meal restaurant or if you're looking for a good meal at a good value.

I LOVE the white curry here! Definitely recommend trying since I've never seen it anywhere else. Husband usually gets the chicken curry and we order to go. The naan is not the most authentic, but the food is still tasty!

The atmosphere is relaxing and the staff treat you like family. The curry is good and different curry bases to try.

Amazing food, atmosphere, and overall experience. You can’t beat their lunch special! So good and affordable!

Always my favorite Soy Tofu Ramen at Kameya Ramen. Recommended for those who like ramen but are concerned about calories, it's a perfect balance. Soy milk is also a well-known health food with beauty and diet benefits, blood pressure reduction and liver function improvement benefits. Also, this place have lot of ramen selection, gyoza is super delicious highly recommended.

I truly believe that this is one of the best Ramen you will be able to get in Okinawa! Especially their spicy tomato Ramen is unique and unbelievably delicious. You really can’t go wrong. They also provide English menu, which I highly respect not like I expect it from any restaurant, but this is great and it shows that they’re opening to others.

Super tasty and filling ramen! It’s pretty much our favorite on island so far! The broth is always consistent and delicious, the flavors are #1, and the spice levels (levels 1-3) are actually spicy 🥵 The picture I shared is the spicy miso, but I updated the post to add the lunch set (~1,200¥) and the children’s set. The lunch set is an incredible deal for the price and the children set could probably feed two children. The shop is on the smaller side, but gets busy quick around lunch time. There is a water self serve station which also has extra bowls, some children’s forks and spoons, as well as adult forks. An English menu has almost always been provided to us, which I’m incredibly thankful for, and they do not take credit cards-so don’t forget to bring yen ☺️

Kameya 🚗 parking lot out front and additional parking around back, part of a little shopping mall 🪑 variety of seating inside to include Japanese floor seating 🍜 known for yuzu salt and spicy tomato ramen 💴 yen only

It’s a small place, it’s a bit warm in there. Nothing fancy, but the food is absolutely delicious… the chicken is soooo juicy, the rice is full of flavors and the ramen is incredible! The base broth comes in many flavors. Only cash NO CARDS!

Delicious and spicy AF. Clean, fast, modern serving up a host of spicy bowls (tomato, mabo tofu, squid ink, spicy miso) on top of the usual ones. Convenient location and friendly staff. Has cheap lunch sets to boot. Plus has stamp card.

So, I've tried this place going on three times and thier consistency is amazing. My favorite is the chicken, and the shio ramen. The dumplings are always fresh, I think this is among the elite Ramen Places in Okinawa. I have tried multiple places, all types this sticks out for me.
