🌃Okinawa Nights Never Sleep: A Complete Guide to American Village's Night Views

American Village, located in Chatan Town, is Okinawa's most exotic nighttime destination. As evening falls, the lights gradually light up, transforming the city into a sleepless city brimming with American romance.

The iconic Ferris Wheel, America Village's landmark, is the centerpiece of the nighttime scene. Its lights change color throughout the day, flickering pink and blue, complementing the neon lights of the surrounding shops. A ride offers panoramic views of the entire area, perfect for photo ops. 📸 Stroll along the coastal promenade, where you can admire the shimmering sea under the lights, and enjoy the occasional breeze, creating a relaxing and cozy atmosphere.

Don't miss the food and leisure activities during your night out: try an American-style burger with an ice-cold beer or the Okinawan specialty, awamori shochu. The shopping street is home to a variety of small shops, selling everything from vintage accessories to trendy clothing, making it a great place for some shopping. For a relaxing meal, the open-air restaurants along the seaside are perfect for enjoying the night view while dining. The atmosphere is truly captivating.

🚗Getting there: Approximately a one-hour drive from downtown Naha; you can also take Highway Bus Route 111 to Chatan Koen-mae, then walk for five minutes.
💡Tip: The Ferris wheel operates until 11:00 PM, so visiting after 8:00 PM is recommended to avoid crowds and enjoy the diverse nightscape from dusk to late night. Evenings by the sea can be a bit chilly, so bring a light jacket.
