Itinerary

Hotel Seabreeze Casual

Located within the "Shigira Seven Miles Resort" on the southern coast of Miyako Island, this hotel offers a bright and open atmosphere. The facility features a barrier-free design with minimal steps, and the guest rooms have a wooden flooring style where you can take off your shoes and relax. With smooth accessibility for wheelchairs, you can feel as comfortable as if you were in your own home. Despite being part of a large resort, the atmosphere is casual and inviting, featuring a spacious lobby and functional amenities. It is the perfect place to soothe your travel fatigue while surrounded by the tropical nature stretching out before you.

Irabu Bridge

Opened in 2015, this bridge connects Miyako Island and Irabu Island with a total length of 3,540 meters. It boasts the title of the longest toll-free bridge in Japan. Due to its impressive height and length, crossing it provides an exhilarating feeling, as if you are flying over the ocean.

Below the bridge stretches the highly transparent, emerald-green sea known as "Miyako Blue." It has gained popularity as a premier scenic driving course where visitors can enjoy breathtaking views right from their car windows without needing to leave their wheelchairs.

Higashi-hennazaki Cape

Located at the easternmost tip of Miyako Island, this scenic spot is designated as one of Japan's Top 100 City Parks and a National Site of Scenic Beauty. Extending approximately 2 km in a long, narrow strip, the cape offers a panoramic view with the Pacific Ocean on the right and the East China Sea on the left. The landscape, created by crashing waves and giant boulders, is truly powerful and breathtaking.

The paved promenade leads all the way to the lighthouse at the tip of the cape, allowing wheelchair users to travel near the edge and experience the magnificent sea breeze firsthand.

Yonaha Maehama Beach

Widely acclaimed as the "most beautiful beach in the East," this is the most iconic beach on Miyako Island. Stretching for approximately 7 km, the fine white sand and the stunning gradient of crystal-clear "Miyako Blue" are so breathtaking they will leave you speechless.

With Kurima Island and the Kurima Bridge visible directly ahead, you can enjoy a healing moment that cleanses the soul just by gazing at the sea. The beach's beauty can be fully appreciated even from the paved areas.

Charcoal Grilled Yakiniku Ryuguen

Located within the Shigira Seven Miles Resort, this yakiniku restaurant offers a chic and tranquil atmosphere. Here, you can enjoy charcoal-grilled Miyako Beef—a must-try when visiting the island—as well as fresh seafood and local island vegetables.

The interior is spacious, allowing for smooth entry and easy table access for wheelchair users. You can enjoy a luxurious resort-style dinner featuring premium meats and high-quality ingredients.

Okinawan Izakaya Waon

This popular izakaya is known for its lively Shimauta (island song) performances that heat up the Miyako Island nights. Guests can enjoy traditional Okinawan dishes such as Goya Chanpuru and Rafute while listening to daily live folk music.

It is a spot where you can experience the cheerful local culture firsthand—dancing the "Kachashi" (hand dance) to the sound of the Sanshin and feeling a sense of unity with locals and other tourists alike.
