[2025 Kumejima Attraction] Travel Guide for Kume Island (Updated May)

#Okinawa Attractions Kume Island in Okinawa is known as the "Dream Island". It has clear blue sea and sky, sunny white sandy beaches, and stunning sunsets. This natural paradise makes every tourist who sets foot here feel relaxed and happy. There are beautiful sandy beaches everywhere on the island. Soft white sand covers the coastline, welcoming the blue sea. Walking on the beach, feeling the soft touch under your feet, it feels like you are in a subtle world. The blue sea and sky meet, making people feel the tranquility and vastness of nature. Take a stroll on the beach and enjoy the magnificent sunset along the way. The rays of setting sun shine on the blue sea and sky, reflecting an orange-red skyline. The sky and the sea complement each other, presenting a wonderful light and shadow effect. The scenery is like a dream and is extremely beautiful. At the end of the beach stands a small round arch, which is also a good place to enjoy the scenery. Standing inside the arch, you can better appreciate the beach and sea view that is like a paradise on earth. The perfect proportions of the sky and the horizon are dazzling. This place not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also has a simple island style. Walking on the island, you can watch the leisurely life of the locals and experience the quiet and comfortable slow life. This secluded island of Kumejima is undoubtedly one of the most worthwhile attractions in Okinawa.

#Japan Travel - Location: Kumejima Island, Shimajiri District, Okinawa Islands - How to get there: Take Ryukyu Air Commuter or Japan Transocean Airlines domestic flight from Naha Airport, 30 minutes - Address: 548-32 Janado, Kumejima, Shimajiri District, Okinawa 901-3107 Japan - Price range: Set meals around 2,000 yen - Nearby hotels: If Beach Hotel - Rating: 5.0/5.0 Kumejima Island, where you must stay to go to Hatenohama, is where many people stay at If Beach Hotel. I will introduce Namiji, which has become the most famous restaurant with the best variety of set meals and alcohol. Set meals are popular during the day, and in the evening, locals gather to have a drink. If you order the sashimi set, the sashimi is served on a wooden boat-shaped bowl, so you must order it. The harmony of rice, miso soup, and sashimi is amazing. A must for anyone visiting Kumejima!!!! #FamilyTravel #HotPlace #RestaurantExploration

About 3 hours from Okinawa's main island (Tomarin). A beautiful remote island comes into view. Beautiful sandy beaches, clear waters, and a land rich in nature. Hatenohama is in a class of its own. You get to the beach by boat, and if you're lucky, you might even see some sea turtles! There aren't as many tourists as on the main island, and the warm local people are also charming. There are also a variety of restaurants, which is great! In particular, "Yanguwa", which was featured on TV, serves delicious Okinawa soba noodles. If you want to experience a different atmosphere from the main island, be sure to check it out! #OkinawaTrip

There weren't many people on Kumejima during the long weekend, so it was a really peaceful time. After arriving on the island, we settled down at Kume Island, and for dinner, there was a small restaurant area in front of the hotel. We rented an electric scooter to get souvenirs and went to a nearby supermarket. We were shocked at the outrageous prices of vegetables, but perhaps this is the fate of remote islands. The next morning, we took a 15-minute boat ride to Hatenohama Beach, one of Kumejima's attractions. The crystal clear water is truly beautiful, and you can just sit there and daydream on the sand for as long as you like. It's hot in the summer, so half a day is probably enough. After returning to the island, we swam in the hotel pool, and the Kumejima soba restaurant in front of the hotel was delicious again. It was an island that made us want to go back. #Hatenohama #KumejimaSoba

#JapanTravel - Location: 548-26 Janado, Kumejima, Shimajiri District, Okinawa 901-3107 Japan - How to get there: 30 minutes by bus from Kumejima Airport, get off at If Beach Hotel - Price range: 700-800 yen for a la carte dishes, 500 yen for draft beer - Features: Sells Okinawan specialty desserts such as Komadango and Jimamidofu, as well as unique menus such as ink pasta - Nearby hotels: If Beach Hotel - Rating: 5.0/5.0 Kumejima has many great restaurants centered around If Beach Hotel, but Nanbika is the best among them. The two somewhat taciturn male owners cook nonstop, and the interior is nice, and you can sit at the bar and enjoy your food even if you go alone. I highly recommend the squid ink pasta, Ikasumi Pasta. If you come to Kumejima, this is a must-visit restaurant for dinner!!! #Family travel #Restaurant exploration #Okinawa travel
