What attracted me most to Zanpa Misaki in Okinawa was the pure white lighthouse standing by the coast! Zanpa Misaki Lighthouse is one of the few lighthouses on Okinawa’s main island that you can climb to the top for a view. Its white exterior against the deep blue sea is truly beautiful!

Walking along the cape, you can see the spectacular cliffs, and the sea breeze feels very pleasant. Looking out toward the ocean from near the lighthouse, the view is incredibly expansive. When the weather is nice, it’s a great place to take photos.

If you have enough time and energy, you can also climb the lighthouse for a view from higher up, but since we had children with us, we didn’t go up. What a shame!

At Cape Hedo in northern Okinawa, the moment I saw the ocean in front of me, I couldn't help but stop to take pictures! The deep blue water paired with the dramatic coastline was incredibly beautiful, and when the weather is good, it's so gorgeous that you won't want to leave!

Looking out from the cape, you can feel the vastness of the sea and sky merging into one, and the ocean breeze blowing against your face feels especially pleasant. It's not as busy as attractions in the city and instead has a more natural, peaceful atmosphere.

While in the Shuri area of Okinawa, I made a special trip to the Shuri Kinjo-cho Stone Paved Path. This old stone-paved road has a strong sense of history, and along the way you can experience the atmosphere of traditional Okinawan streets. It's very different from typical tourist attractions.

But after actually walking it, I realized that the stone path is much longer than I had imagined. The surface is uneven, and some sections are sloped, so it's actually quite tiring to walk. Wearing comfortable walking shoes is really important, or your feet will start to ache after a while.
