✈️ Senaga Island: Okinawa's "Little Europe" 🇪🇺 A magical island where cats watch airplanes and fighter planes roar 🏝️

Walking into Senaga Island is like stepping into Santorini, Greece! 🏛️ Pure white stepped buildings, blue-roofed cottages, round arched porches, and unbeatable sea views🌊, any photo you take is a postcard-level beauty📸. This is not only a hidden attraction in Okinawa, but also a paradise for airplane fans, cat lovers, and foodies! ✈️ Airplane fans scream! Fighter planes and passenger planes hit at close range Senaga Island is basically an "open-air airport observation deck"! 🛫 Sitting in a seaside cafe☕, the shocking feeling of the plane passing low overhead, even the passengers in the window can see it clearly~ What's cooler is that you can hear the roar of the engine of the Self-Defense Forces fighter planes! 🇯🇵✈️​​ Military fans are definitely excited! 🌅 A must-see for sunset lovers! Sea view + sunset = 100% romance In the evening, the whole island is dyed golden🌇. It is recommended to go to the "Happy Pancake Shop"🥞 and order a fluffy soufflé. With the sea breeze and sunset, it is simply an idol drama scene! 💑 Couples come here and the sweetness is off the charts~ 🐱 Cat Island Confirmed! You can see the masters patrolling everywhere The cats here are simply "Senagajima Civil Servants"! 🐾 They lie flat to bask in the sun☀️, or occupy the restaurant entrance to wait for feeding🍤, and are not afraid of people at all~Cat slaves remember to bring cans to pay tribute! 😻 🍴 Attention foodies! Global food is gathered in one stop From Okinawa Agu pork cuisine🐷, Italian handmade pizza🍕, to Hawaiian rainbow shaved ice🍧, Umikaji Terrace Food Street is like a small United Nations! 🇮🇹🇺🇸🇯🇵 It is recommended to sit in outdoor seats and watch the planes while eating. It is very refreshing! 📌 Lazy guide - 🚗 Transportation: 20 minutes drive from Naha, and you can also take the bus (search "Senaga Island" on Google Map) - ⏰ Best time: after 15:00 ~ sunset (soft light + no sun) - 📸 Must-take: white buildings + sea view, cats, airplane takeoffs and landings - 🧴 Must-bring: sunscreen, sunglasses🕶️, camera, cat snacks 💡 Cold knowledge The cats here are said to be the descendants of "airport employee cats", no wonder they supervise the takeoff and landing of planes all day long! 🤣 Come to Senaga Island and enjoy the wonderful combination of European style + Okinawa blue~🎉 #燒燒燒
