Zamami
Zamami is a small and largely unspoilt island with its own dialect and customs. With just under one thousand inhabitants and only seventeen square kilometres of land, Zamami is one of the best island get-aways in Okinawa.
“Zamami Island is tiny in size but large in adventure opportunities. Whether you're looking for a white-sand beach to rest your head, tropical fish to dive among, or cycling trips with stunning views of emerald-blue water, Zamami is the place to be!”
Furuzamami beach is the island's most famous spot with crystal clear waters teeming with coral and fish. As a result of this, snorkelling, scuba diving and sea kayaking are very popular activities on the island. The beach, which has sun umbrellas and the like available, is also a great base for swimming and relaxation!
Another popular activity on the island is whale watching. The people of Zamami are extremely concerned about preserving whales and have set up observation gazebos around the island and boat trips to help visitors spot the humpback whales in the surrounding waters. Whale watching is best from January through April.
There are cars, scooters and bicycles available to rent on the island which allow visitors to explore the narrow winding mountain roads and see all that the island has to offer.
