Miibaru Beach on the southern coast of Okinawa’s main island is a major draw for tourists. Its sandy shore runs a kilometer long, including the neighboring Hyakuna Beach.

A glass boat tour is a popular attraction there. Through the glass, you can see spangled emperor, yellow-brown wrasse, and more without getting wet.
