Kohama Island, located in Okinawa Prefecture's Yaeyama Islands 🏝️
Just a 30-minute ferry ride from Ishigaki Island.
This small, nature-rich island can be explored in a single day. It gained fame from a popular TV drama in the past.
Here are some of the must-visit spots on the island:
📍 Sugar Road
Okinawa is famous for its sugarcane. Cycling through the sugarcane fields along this road is a refreshing and highly recommended activity.
📍 Mount Ufudaki
Mount Ufudaki is the highest peak on Kohama Island. Despite its height, it’s easy to climb, and the summit offers a panoramic view of the island.
📍 Nishidake
Located next to Mount Ufudaki, this observation point requires climbing about 100 steps. The view from the top is equally stunning, offering a full view of the island.
📍 Kohagura-so
This traditional Okinawan red-tiled house served as a filming location for a popular TV drama. While it is still inhabited, visitors can admire it from the outside.
Recommended beaches:
Coral Beach and Hozaki Coast 🌊
Lose track of time and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Kohama Island. It’s an experience you won’t forget.
