Cape Manzamo

The entry ticket was just 100 yen per person. We arrived at 5:30 PM, and there was no crowd at all—super quiet and peaceful. The stunning blue water, combined with the sunset, created a perfect atmosphere. We spent about 30 minutes there, and it was truly a beautiful experience.

The admission ticket costs 100Yen per person to gain entry. It was a beautiful place to see the ocean and how clear blue it was. Additionally, the place was extremely windy so you would not need to worry about being too sweaty. We visited Cape Manzamo in the morning about 10am which I felt was the perfect time to visit as the sun was not too bright and the winds made the place extremely cooling. It took us 15-20 minutes to finish soaking in the scenes of Cape Manzamo before making our way back to the main building. The main building houses a few gift shops (2-3 from what I recall) along with a few food choices (yoghurt bowls, ramen) and was very well maintained. I enjoyed how the building had big glass windows to allow natural light to filter through as well. The only reason why I am not rating this visit 5 stars is because of how "fast" it took us to clear the main attraction (to no fault of the team that maintains the place). Thankfully for us, it was only a 5-10 minute drive from our accommodation. If you booked a hotel an hour away, it may not be the best use of time to visit this place, unless you are a nature & scenic place lover!

Cape Manzamo in Okinawa earns a solid 4/5 rating. Its stunning location boasts a unique rock formation resembling an elephant's trunk, adding a touch of whimsy and intrigue to the landscape. Visitors are treated to breathtaking views of the ocean and coastline, making it a popular spot for photography and sightseeing. The natural beauty of Cape Manzamo offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, allowing visitors to appreciate the wonders of nature. However, while the rock formation itself is undeniably impressive, some visitors may find the area crowded, particularly during peak tourist seasons. Additionally, accessibility to the cape could be improved to accommodate all visitors, including those with mobility challenges. Despite these minor drawbacks, Cape Manzamo remains a must-visit destination in Okinawa, offering a memorable and picturesque experience for travelers seeking natural beauty and tranquility.

I walked from Intercontinental and it wasn't hard at all. 100 yen for entree was so worth it. What a beautiful place! I highly recommend you to check out. It reminded me of Bronte, Australia.

It is a great destination to see the elephant shaped rock and walk around the park. The weather was great when we were there just a little bit windy. The color of the sea was beautiful. There is a facility that you can eat and drink. We had coffee and tried Okinawa’s special donuts that we liked a lot.
