Okinawa Must-Visit! Enjoy a Healing Time with Desserts by the Sea.

Okinawa's beauty is not just in its clear blue sea and sky, but also in its many small, healing corners. This time, I visited Hyakuna Beach in Nanjo City and discovered a cozy rest stop with a breathtaking view of the sea and sky—'Hamabe no Chaya'. Stepping into the tea house, the wooden architecture and open windows allow the sound of waves and sea breeze to flow naturally indoors. Choose a seat by the window, and your view is an endless expanse of deep blue sea, as if time stands still here. The food here is simple yet charming, with a touch of Okinawan flavor. I ordered the brown sugar chiffon cake, which had a moist and fluffy texture with a sweet aroma of brown sugar, paired with a refreshing butterfly pea flower tea. The dreamy blue-purple gradient is both healing and mesmerizing, making you unconsciously slow down and savor every bite. Here, you can completely relax your body and mind, quietly enjoying the healing time with Okinawa's sunshine, sea breeze, and delicious food!
