Top ways to experience Bios no Oka (Bios on the Hill)


What other travelers are saying about Bios no Oka (Bios on the Hill)

Fifteen years ago, when my children were young, I visited Bios Hill in Okinawa, and it remained a very good memory. I revisited Bios Hill in 2025, and maintained the concept of a place where I met the life of nature on a large site, and managed the natural scenery well. I listened to the commentary on a small cruise ship, looked at the animals and plants of the lake, walked through the natural garden. You can tour the lakes and subtropical forests by cruise or canoe, observe animals and plants closely, and communicate with them

Took a boat ride and hopped on a water buffalo cart—such a unique experience! There’s a bit of an entrance fee, but it’s totally worth it. The place was super quiet, probably because of the cloudy weather. It's a well-kept, immersive botanical garden and farm!

Orchids, orchids, everywhere!! Great spot for a nice afternoon visit. Amazing walk amongst the orchids, if you have kids, there's also a petting zoo- amazing spot!!, and best of all- not busy at all (on 1st November). Great visit!
Very relaxing. Quite tranquil views of interesting plant life. You have got to take the boat ride while there.

Beautiful place to walk. We were blessed with overcast and a little rain to cool us off. The boat tours focus on local plants and history. Overall, it's a great place for kids. It's kinda expensive, but it's worth visiting at least once.
