2025 Chatan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

0. I finally visited Okinawa, a place I had always wanted to go, with my partner. I thought 3 days and 2 nights would be enough, but it didn’t take long to realize how wrong I was. While the abundance of tourist spots was one reason, the sweltering weather and unique terrain also played a big part. In the end, I felt regretful because there were so many places we couldn’t visit. 1. Day 1 We found a beautiful and affordable hotel, the 5-star Ryukyu Hotel in the southern area (the hotel itself is artistically stunning). However, since there was nothing around the hotel, we checked in at 5:30 PM, rested briefly, and then drove an hour to the famous American Village. ‘Ah... we should’ve just stayed in this area for the first night...’ ‘Such a beautiful and charming place, but I can’t even enjoy a beer because I have to drive back...’ After another hour-long drive, we returned to the Ryukyu Hotel for the night. 2. Day 2 After checking out at 11 AM, we decided to visit Sesoko Beach, said to be the most beautiful beach. It’s a 2-hour drive from Ryukyu Hotel. Parking costs 10,000 won for the whole day. Renting a parasol and sunbed costs 42,000 won. The sea is breathtakingly beautiful, so it’s worth it. After enjoying the beach, we headed to our second hotel, Moon Beach Museum Resort (1 hour from Sesoko Beach). The hotel has an izakaya nearby, the resort is beautiful, and the price is reasonable—very satisfying. The biggest downside is that the outdoor pool only has about 10 sunbeds, which was inconvenient. The staff didn’t offer much help. However, the stunning scenery and atmosphere made up for it. 3. Day 3 After checking out, we visited Umikaji Terrace. Every photo you take here looks like a magazine cover. There’s very little shade, so you end up buying drinks frequently. After returning the rental car, we said goodbye to Okinawa. — Final Thoughts: ° Avoid Ryukyu Hotel unless you have a relaxed schedule. But it’s an incredibly stylish and stunning hotel. ° American Village alone is worth it. Avoid the midday heat and visit around sunset. ° Sesoko Beach: The water is shallow and safe, with emerald-green seas. However, unless you plan to snorkel, it might not be worth the long trip. ° Moon Beach Museum Resort: A great value-for-money hotel! Highly recommended except for the sunbed issue. However, there were so many Korean tourists—almost too many, haha. ° Umikaji Terrace: Close to the airport, so it’s perfect for a quick 1-2 hour visit before your flight home. Thank you!

Okinawa soul food "Pork and egg onigiri" A simple onigiri with spam and egg. In Okinawa, you can find it at any convenience store or bento shop. Popular specialty store [Po Tama] sells this soul food with various ingredients. There are five stores on the main island of Okinawa. It is a popular store with tourists, so there are often lines at all stores all day. It is also located in the domestic arrivals lobby of Naha Airport, so there may be some people who have waited in the line at least once, or some people who have given up on the line. So, here is a hidden gem that I would like to recommend. [Naha Airport International Food Court Store] Po Tama's popularity has not yet spread to foreigners, so there are few lines and it is recommended. The international food court is on the 4th floor of the international terminal. At the end of my trip to Okinawa, I bought a Po Tama at the international food court after checking my luggage and ate it on the plane. If you come to Okinawa, you should definitely try this onigiri at least once. [Po-Tama International Food Court Store] Address: 150 Kagamizu, Naha City, Okinawa Prefecture, Naha Airport International Passenger Terminal Building, 4F Food Court Opening hours: 7:00-21:00 Parking: Available #Domestic Travel Strategy #Domestic Travel #Okinawa #Okinawa Travel #Okinawa Tourism #Okinawa Gourmet #Po-Tama #Pork and Egg Onigiri

At the end of October 2024, I had the opportunity to travel to Okinawa, Japan as a Solo Trip. This time, I booked Air Asia flights through Trip.com. Everything went smoothly. From Naha Airport to American Village, which is located in Chatan City, you can take a direct bus. It takes about 1 hour, which is very convenient. At American Village, there are many shops and restaurants. It is near Aeon Chatan, Sunset Beach, Depot Central, which is a very famous tourist spot. It is near the American military base. Various tour companies bring tourists to shop and take pictures. If anyone has time, I recommend going for a walk to find delicious food, watch the lights and sounds at night, and see fireworks every Saturday. #TravelJapanOnYour Own #tripFreeAccommodation #okinawa #americanvillageokinawa

Okinawa American Village feels like a dreamy place, filled with a nostalgic atmosphere. The sun shines brightly, the sea breeze blows, and colorful shops and cafes are everywhere on the streets, making every corner a photo opportunity. People leisurely stroll here, enjoying local food and culture, experiencing the American vibe mixed with Okinawa's unique flavor. The sunsets in Okinawa are absolutely stunning! As the sun slowly sets, the entire sky turns golden orange and purple-blue, with the sea shimmering like a painting. You can pause and enjoy this moment of tranquility.

You must make a reservation online in advance for Ryukyu Beef because there are very few seats and they don't usually offer walk-in seating! (💰 Average cost per person: less than 2000 TWD for a meal) The service is excellent, and you can order using a tablet, so there's no worry about not understanding the menu. There is a minimum charge. You can view the menu when making a reservation, pre-order, or order on-site without any issues! If you're bringing children, please be mindful of the noise level. After eating, take a stroll around American Village. Since it was a bit late, many stores were closed, but the Halloween decorations were still interesting, and the lights were on, making it great for photos! There are also plenty of parking spaces here, so no need to worry about finding a spot!

Introducing American Village in Okinawa Prefecture! It's famous as a place where restaurants and souvenir shops are gathered, but we found photogenic spots everywhere 💡 There are Pokemon in various places on the premises due to the Pokemon collaboration! They're not all in one place, so we recommend enjoying shopping while searching for them ◎ The sunset is also beautiful, so you can relax on a bench by the sea 👍🏽☀️ You're sure to take photos that will look great on Instagram!

Pork Tamago Onigiri 📍Japan 9-21 Mihama, Chatan, Nakagami District, Okinawa 904-0115 Japan ◽ 07:00 - 19:00 📋 Potama (Spam + Egg) 390 yen / Shrimp TarTar (Spam + Egg + Fried Shrimp) 650 yen Pork Tamago Onigiri has three branches: Naha Airport, Kokusai Dori, and Ameville. We visited the closest Ameville branch while staying at Vessel Hotel Campana Okinawa.😊 There were no separate seats inside Pork Tamago Onigiri, probably because there were many takeout customers. If you wanted to eat in the store, you could use the terrace seats in front.❗ The Pork Tamago menu has a variety of rice balls, from standard to special. I personally recommend the shrimp tartar sauce because it was really delicious. I want it 😋 (Of course, the basic potama is also really delicious) Even if it's not an Ameville branch, You can taste it at Kokusai Dori or Naha Airport, So I hope you try it at least once as a substitute for breakfast or a snack during your trip to Okinawa☘️ #Japan #Okinawa #OkinawaRestaurant #Ameville #AmericanVillage #AmevilleRestaurant #PorkTamago #JapanTravel #trip #okinawa

#100TravelWays The popular conveyor belt sushi restaurant #Circuit Belt Sushi Market Mihama in Chatan American Village, Okinawa, has a long wait during dinner time. It is very popular, affordable and delicious. Both sushi and fried food are delicious. There are not as many seats inside as outside. The decoration is simple, and it is obvious that it is an old restaurant. Since Mihama, where the American Village is located, is close to the sea, the seafood here must be cheap and fresh. Sure enough, the quality of the sashimi sushi is very good, and tablet ordering is also provided, so communication is not a problem. In short, just order a lot. The chef at the bar is enthusiastic and efficient, and the food is served quite quickly. When you come to American Village, in addition to tasting exotic cuisine, I recommend trying this #KaitokuzushishijimaMihama store. #Conveyor Belt Sushi Market Mihama Store Business hours: 1130-1400, 1630-2150 Address: 2 Chome−４−5 Oasis Building, Chatan, Mihama, Nakagami District, Okinawa, Japan 904-0115 #Okinawa Store Exploration #Okinawa Food #American Village #Conveyor Belt Sushi
