Okinawa is home to many topographical wonders, cliffs, and amazing spots to enjoy the island’s surrounding crystal blue waters. Cape Hedo, the northernmost point of the main island, has all of these in one great spot perfect for a nice day trip.

Here visitors can get a great view from the Head Line tourist information office’s rooftop observatory, the Okinawa Rail Observation Deck and the Kayauchi Banta.

The area is rich in nature, interesting rock formations and, of course, steeped in Ryukyu Kingdom history. Make plans to visit soon!
