What other travelers are saying about Sunset Beach

Nice small public beach near the American village. The place is popular for bbq. There are toilets, showers (for 100yen)... Beach is clean. I woudn't spend there whole day but for 1-2 hours it is really nice and welcomed especially during the hot days. And you can watch the sunset here.;-)

Some chairs are available for sunbathing at the beach. It's quite hot to walk along the beach even in May. The beach is very close to American Village and bathing facilities are available. You can enjoy park and beach time together in one day.

The beach is clean and child friendly. Unfortunately, the staff is rude and gives you the impression of being in a kindergarten. You are not allowed to go a meter beyond the buoys and at 5 pm they force you out of the water. It is absurd that they seriously think they can close the ocean! If you are able to use your brain and act self-responsibly better go somewhere else!

I love this beach, except Annoying usa jet fighters are flying continuously over it very loudly all day long. I feel pity for Okinawa civilians. I could give this beach a 5-star if it was quiet. You can rent a beach chair and umbrella for 3000 yen. Toilet, shower and beverages are available. I will not visit this beach ever. Too loud to relax. These jet planes are really annoying.

It is located right next to the American Village. You just need to walk a little more. There is a place to play beach valley ball. Also, there was a barrier in the water where kids could play. There are a lot of hotels and restaurants nearby. Unfortunately, I like Araha Beach more than this one.
