What attracted me most to Zanpa Misaki in Okinawa was the pure white lighthouse standing by the coast! Zanpa Misaki Lighthouse is one of the few lighthouses on Okinawa’s main island that you can climb to the top for a view. Its white exterior against the deep blue sea is truly beautiful!
Walking along the cape, you can see the spectacular cliffs, and the sea breeze feels very pleasant. Looking out toward the ocean from near the lighthouse, the view is incredibly expansive. When the weather is nice, it’s a great place to take photos.
If you have enough time and energy, you can also climb the lighthouse for a view from higher up, but since we had children with us, we didn’t go up. What a shame!
