What other travelers are saying about Hedo Misaki (Cape Hedo)
If you are in Okinawa you must see this place so make sure you allocate time in your trip to visit. Driving to this place and seeing all the beaches, small villages and wild forests is a beautiful experience on its own. The scenery at the cape is stunning and it is worth having a nice stroll to see everything. It is a very peaceful and solemn site that is hard to forget.
Free parking available and there is also a cafe and convenience store.
So worth the drive! The most northern tip of Okinawa Island, has some amazing views and just a calm relaxing spot to take in the waves crashing and was lucky enough to catch a rainbow after the storm. Not too many people here today, I guess the rain keeps tourist away. The second floor cafe was closed, could have used a coffee before the 2 hour cannonball back to Naha.
The cliff views are awesome here, but what makes the drive worth it are the tide pools you can explore if you drive down to the beach. Going at low time with a pair of goggles could fill a whole weekend of time. There are SO many tide pools, caves and deep channels in the reef to explore. 100% one of my favorite things to do on Okinawa.
It’s just a 500 meter trail I think. Very short walk to the beautiful scenery. The weather is very hot even it’s near sunset. Geez..! And I think I can tolerate heat!
I got tan badly going to Okinawa. And I don’t normally turned dark easily. I normally don’t wear sunscreen, hat or carry umbrella…….
Okinawa beats me to that!
The drive up here was almost as pretty as the cape itself. This is the northernmost part of the island and it's beautiful and there's an easy walk to the sign. There is a information center with bathrooms, a shop Cafe, and a stand where you can get ice cream. I definitely recommend making the drive up here if you're on the island
