Iheya Island, a primitive landscape where the spirit of the gods blows.
The pure blue sea stretching as far as the eye can see.
The rugged, lush mountains that run across the island.
Surrounded by white sandy beaches and coral reefs.
There is the simple life of people living in harmony with nature.
80 minutes by ferry from Unten Port, north of the main island of Okinawa
The techniques and know-how passed down from our ancestors
The blessings of the earth brought by the sky
The spirit of hospitality born of mutual aid
Words cannot express this emotion.
Heart filled with impulses and serenity
Let yourself be carried away by the eternal flow of time and space, and by the sea breeze blowing over the islands.
Savoring the blessings of the sea and mountains
It is truly paradise on earth.
Legend has it that the gods live here.
Here you will find authentic products that you won’t find anywhere else.
