Here’s the English translation of your review: ⸻ The island is very beautiful, and the nature is truly impressive. I recommend renting a scooter and exploring all the main spots — we managed to do it in 3 hours. However, if you’re staying here for a couple of days, be prepared that the island doesn’t really “wake up” until 11:00 AM. You won’t find any food before then, even if a place says it opens at 9:00 — it won’t be open. Restaurants don’t follow their Google-listed hours; they open whenever they feel like it. Also, keep in mind that there are only two stores on the island, and the selection of products is very limited. I gave two stars not to the island itself, but to the service on the island. People here don’t seem interested in working or making money from tourism.

The greatest snorkeling experience u can have! Ocean are very well preserved, full of coral reels and sea turtle! We stayed in kerama blue resort for 2 days. U can rent a scooter to mover around the island. There are so many different beautiful beaches. Also can do some hiking!

Zamami Island is a tropical paradise with crystal-clear waters and pristine white-sand beaches. It's the perfect place to relax, swim, snorkel, and kayak.

Zamami is an island just over an hour away from Naha, Okinawa by fast ferry . It has wonderful beaches and a few observatory where you can see the pretty islands nearby. A very special place where coral beaches has sand fine enough to walk on. A must do is swimming and snorkelling at Fukuzamami beach, a 2 Michelin star beach. Being from australia, i am hardly ever impressed with beaches overseas , but i am impressed with this beach. The water colour is an amazing blue and it changes often during the day !!! Tropical fish will come and check you out if you snorkel over the coral. Be careful not to step on sea cucumber and look for Nemo !

This is one of the most beautiful places I have seen in my life. I wish I'd had more time here. The ocean is clear, and the island greenery is so lush. There are so many beautiful sights and hiking trails. It's almost unreal. The entire island is walkable if you're up for it. The hills are daunting, but the views from the top are stunning. I cannot recommend this island enough. It's an easy ferry ride away from Naha.

Hands down one of the best islands ive been to in awhile. The water is pristine with beautiful beaches and many outlooks giving you once in a lifetime views of the Kerama Islands. I would highly suggest renting a scooter or bike and explore the island. There are many trails to coves and wild beaches as well. However, given its a national park, swimming should be only done at the beaches. Out of the two main beaches, Ama beach gives you upfront and personal with Sea Turtles! They come around high tide and feed on greens on the seafloor. They come as close to 20 feed from shore. Please keep in mind to not touch nor bother them and keep a good distance for them to freely swim. Also do not tread water wildly around them and startle them.

THE most beautiful, clear and lovely beaches in the world are here! I visited AMA Beach and GAHI uninhabited island a 10 minute boat ride from Zamami port this July 2021 and was rewarded with glorious water but I must warn you no shade as both places are completely ( and luckily) totally undeveloped ! I think Zamami exists only for tourists, however with the Covid plague it offered few options for eating as many places were shut. I rented a bike for ¥3,000 for the day as bus services are sparse. A really wonderful day trip from Naha port and well worth it. I hope I can return between December and March when the humpback whales visit for breeding!

Great beach for snorkelling! Lots of fish near the shore and the water is so clear and refreshing! A 15-20 min walk from the pier that has one big uphill and downhill section but it is very easy to navigate to. There is also a public bus that takes you to the beach for a small fee that leaves near the pier.

This is the very famous beach in Zamami. Even tho it’s quite touristic, density is not very high during August. A lot of snorkeling gear u can rent there. We did a bit of snorkeling ourselves! The big coral reel is very nearby the coast. U just have to swim couple of mins to reach there. Water is extremely clear, a lot of fishes swimming under the water! Incredible experience!! :)

I have visited many islands such as Tahiti and the Maldives, but I had never experienced a beach with such crystal-clear water before. There are kiosks available where you can rent snorkeling gear and parasols. You can also buy light meals, drinks, and ice cream, though alcohol is not sold. It was truly an amazing beach that made me want to come back again.

Even though we came here in the rain, I think this is the best beach in Zamami! I would definitely come back here again on a sunny day! There are showers and a place to wash your feet. Since there weren't many people there, I don't know if it's free or not, but at Ama Beach, you only have to pay. There's also a cafe and a swimming equipment rental, but unfortunately, there weren't many people there to find out. The beach was incredible, with beautiful shells. We walked here, but it's important to remember that you have to walk uphill and then downhill to get here, which isn't very convenient. There's also a bus, but you have to check the departure times. One ride is 300 yen. Recommend to buy hus tickets in advance!

Absolutely breathtaking – Furuzamami Beach is truly one of the most stunning beaches I’ve ever experienced in my life. From the moment we arrived, I was blown away by the vivid shades of turquoise and deep blue – the water is so crystal clear it almost looks surreal. As you can see in the photos, the color of the sea is unlike anywhere else, perfectly contrasting with the white sand and the lush green hills in the background. It's pure paradise. The beach itself is well-maintained, with comfortable lounge chairs and umbrellas available, giving it a relaxed and organized feel. It’s ideal for swimming, snorkeling, or just soaking in the view – the coral reefs close to shore are teeming with marine life, and the calm, shallow water makes it accessible for all ages. Furuzamami Beach is a hidden gem that feels like a private island escape, yet it's just a short ferry ride from Naha. I’ve visited many beaches around the world, but this one left a lasting impression. If you're heading to Okinawa, this beach is an absolute must-visit. You won’t want to leave.

This might be the best beach I’ve ever been to in Japan — and definitely in Okinawa Prefecture! The water is crystal clear, like a natural aquarium filled with so many different species of fish. We truly enjoyed the entire day here. You can rent parasols and sunbeds at very reasonable prices, and there’s a lifeguard on duty, which is great for peace of mind. There’s also a small café where you can grab lunch, a drink, or rent snorkeling gear. It’s about a 20-minute walk from the port, or you can take a bus if you prefer. I totally recommend this spot — I’d definitely come back!

The beach is clean and beautiful, with public toilets and rental lockers available. However, I suggest leaving your belongings at your hotel so you can enjoy swimming without worry.

Clean beach I was the only one there with two lifeguards (who were angels btw) watching over me. I went at 10am and saw so many cool fish and coral. No sea turtles though. Got stung by box jellyfish many times so the bets don’t work 100% but it was worth it.

The best beach in Aka island, hands down. There is a designated swimming zone, which goes far out enough to see some stunning coral reefs. There’s over 360 fish species, and even giant turtles and long sea snakes. There’s a sort patio with benches where you can sit down in the shadows, and two small cafes nearby to get lunch at. I even saw some kerama deers nearby, and once we got to see the rain over Zamami island, which is clearly visible from this beach. Truly a snorkelling paradise!

A super clean beach, with crystal clear waters. Very beautiful and pleasant to stay at.

Beautiful beach, lifeguard on duty from 0900 to 1700hr. More for the protection of corals from humans. the beautiful reefs are beyond the bouys, outlining the boundaries for snorkeling.

extremely beautiful beach, relaxing for family, snorkeling paradise. 😁

Magical place... Few people and quiet. Snorkeling is great fun. I also saw sea turtles and many types of fish. It's safe because there are lifeguards. I hope to return.

One of the best beaches I have ever been. Marine life is the best I ever found.

(Translated by Google) A stylish restaurant where you can enjoy meals and drinks while looking out at the beautiful sea of ​​Aka Island from the terrace. The staff is also kind and makes you feel comfortable. The sherbet ice cream was really delicious. There are very few shops on Aka Island, so this is a very valuable shop.

(Translated by Google) The sea is so beautiful (Original) 海が最高にキレイ

Beautiful beach and scenery as if out of a travelling catalogue. However, the swimming area is heavily restricted and the water was less than knee deep at the limit. Some people had snorkeling gear but the water was too flat to submerge at all, it was a pretty tragic sight. Like everywhere here, it's difficult to walk on the washed up corals and limestone ground without footwear. There is no place in the shade with view of the sea so definitely bring a parasol. Definitely only come here during high tide, research a table when planning your trip. There are some nice food places nearby.

Nice beach, not crowded, safeguard are present. Too bad the area is limited, to protect the coral, but still OK so see a lot of different fish, if u are lucky turtles too.

Disappointed you can only swim between the lines and the coral in this area is crushed and white. Thankfully someone advice us to check the beach before renting the snorkel gear. But still the water is clear blue.

Snorkeled and it was great. Clear water and lots of marine life to see. Saw seasnake and octopus and parrot and other fish.

A small, cosy and beautiful beach. Frequently visited by sea turtles. Watch the tide times, as it gets really shallow at low tide (knee deep) and makes it hard to swim or snorkel, but becomes few meeters deep upon high tide (the turtles show up around that time as well). The reef not big but has nice variety of fish.

Simply mind blowing beach, blue colour great view and the coast guard will be there to help you if in case, two flags will be hosted at the either end which denotes the swimming area, the swimming area is very much limited then. Outside you have bathrooms and baggage archives.

This is the best beach on the island! We went here our first day. The sand is soft and the beach is long. There is a lot of coral, but you have to swim a bit to reach it. You’d need snorkelling gear and probably a wet suit if you go in the winter like we did. We saw a giant sea turtle as well as a fugu! The beach is beautiful

Coolest dog story I’ve ever heard. This dog swam back and forth from island to another to see its girlfriend

Cute lil pupper, awaiting her Shiro. Cute story. Gave her a boop.

This is the place to admire the sunsets. The dog accepts cash only!

I can't remember the story about the dog, something about him swimming to meet his girlfriend on another island lol.

Such a beautiful story. 🥰

After researching the sweet story behind little Marilyn and Shiro, I shed a few tears. The statue itself is in great shape. It is adorned with medals, flowers, and sea shells. A very fitting memorial for a quaint little town.

Amazing place for sunset
