The Miyako Archipelago is located in the middle of the Ryukyu Arc that arcs from Okinawa Island to Ishigaki and Iriomote Islands. Miyako Island is the main island among eight islands of various sizes, including Ikema Island and Ogami Island. The main attraction of Miyakojima is its beautiful ocean, which is outstandingly beautiful even in Okinawa. It is famous for its clear emerald green and cobalt blue waters, and is a popular spot for diving, snorkeling, and other marine sports.

Drive around and enjoy the view of the blue ocean and the many fish in the shallows, and enjoy the tropical atmosphere. We also recommend relaxing and enjoying the island time at a stylish café with a resort-like atmosphere. There are also many izakayas (Japanese-style pubs) on the island where you can enjoy Okinawan cuisine, and you are sure to have a fulfilling night on the island.

It takes about 3 hours by air from Tokyo to Miyakojima. There are direct flights from Tokyo International Airport and Narita International Airport, and access is easy as there are no connections. It also takes about one hour from Naha Airport by air. Miyako Island and its surrounding islands are connected by bridges, and many of the islands are accessible by car, so renting a car is a convenient way to get around the island.

  • Fish can also be observed in the shallows.
  • The area offers a wide range of marine sports, including diving in the beautiful sea.
  • Rental cars are convenient for getting around the island.
