Sitting on the oceanfront terrace, enjoying fluffy pancakes while taking in the Okinawan ocean view, the whole atmosphere really felt like a vacation. The pancakes were very soft, light, and fluffy, with a lovely aroma. They were so delicious that I couldn't stop eating one bite after another.
Feeling the ocean breeze, looking at the sea, and enjoying a plate of hot pancakes while leisurely taking in this part of the trip made me feel truly happy.
A Happy Pancake on Senaga Island is a popular spot you shouldn't miss in Okinawa! Unfortunately, online reservations are no longer available as of this year, so you have to sign up in person.
The signature thick pancakes are fluffy and soft, melting in your mouth with a rich egg-and-milk aroma and flavorful syrup. Every bite is full of happiness. The most eye-catching feature is the outdoor seating overlooking the ocean. You can enjoy delicious pancakes and the cool sea breeze while watching planes take off and land at low altitude from Naha Airport against the beautiful blue ocean—a treat for both the eyes and the taste buds!
Afterward, you can browse the various shops in an area known as Okinawa's Little Greece. When you get tired, there's a free footbath next to the visitor center.
This place definitely belongs on the list of must-try desserts in Okinawa!
If you visit Umikaji Terrace on Senaga Island, be sure to plan a stop at this incredibly popular pancake shop. I recommend making an online reservation first. Otherwise, between waiting in line and having the pancakes made to order, you'll be waiting quite a while.
Each order of pancakes is freshly made and takes about 20 minutes. They're made with fresh eggs, Hokkaido fresh cream, and New Zealand manuka honey. They're slightly crisp on the outside and incredibly fluffy inside, and every bite makes the wait feel worthwhile!
Besides the classic pancakes, there are also fruit, whipped cream, and seasonal flavors. Every option looks so tempting. You can enjoy the pancakes with an unbeatable ocean view and watch planes take off and land up close. The whole place is filled with a vacation atmosphere.
After eating here, I really had only one thought: super delicious! If you come to Okinawa, I highly recommend adding this place to your itinerary. Enjoying beautiful scenery with delicious food is definitely one of the most relaxing moments of the trip.
