Very nice and scenic view. I would be careful if you plan to take pictures on the edge, I my phone and I almost fell over so I would recommend you take Extreme causation while taking pictures. Other than that I would 100% recommend this spot for your next trip to Okinawa. (Also a lot of the rocks are sharp to watch out for that too!)
A really beautiful view. The sunset is apparently stunning, but also really crowded with tourists, according to my fellow traveler who was there for the sun down while three different wedding photo shoots were taking place at the same time.
Beautiful place to stop by four some great views. You're able to climb the lighthouse for a fee and it's harder than it looks! The space is very narrow but the view from the top is great. Close by there was also a food truck and toilets. Plenty of public parking available
It was a very windy and cloudy Monday afternoon, the waves hit hard on the coastal rocks and you can get wet even at a distance away from the coast. Watching the harsh waves and the whooshing sounds was somehow a therapeutic experience for me. To climb up to the top of the lighthouse cost 300yen if I don't remember wrongly, it was good exercise and the 360° views up there were amazing. The wind was so strong and I couldn't stand steadily without holding on to the rails. Overall, it was a beautiful time spent, enjoying the views and photography.
