It is about 1 hour and 45 minutes by car from Naha Airport. This lovely cafe is located in Motobu-cho, the northern part of Okinawa’s main island. The exterior, interior, and smoothies are all cute! It is a must for female customers. It is a perfect place for a date because of its cuteness and relaxing atmosphere!
Point 1: 1 minute walk from Bise Fukugi Namiki! What is the location of okinawasun?
okinawasun” is a lovely cafe located in Motobu-cho, northern Okinawa Island. It opened in August 2016, renovated from an old Okinawan house! Originally an old red-tiled house, the roof was painted white, and the pink and striped walls and window frames are peppermint green, transforming the old house into a lovely place!
The restaurant’s interior is painted in rainbow colors, and the visual impact of the vitamin colors is sure to invigorate the entire body.
The rainbow paint inside the restaurant will make you feel energetic and full of energy. At first glance.
From Naha Airport, the Okinawa Expressway takes 1 hour and 45 minutes. If you go via Route 58, it will take an extra 30 minutes, so be careful!
If you take a bus, take the Okinawa Airport Shuttle (OAS/RSL-RP) and get off at “Bise Fukugi Namiki Iriguchi” and you can come without changing buses. From the bus stop to the restaurant is only a one-minute walk!
The time required is about 2 hours, which is not so different from coming by car.
It takes only one minute from the bus stop to the store, so if you see a pink fence with a white roof while walking, that is the store.
I never imagined that an old Okinawan house would be transformed into something so cute! I imagine that the menu must be cute as well.
Point 2: Only in Okinawa! Introducing “okinawasun”, a smoothie menu full of vitamins!
The mainstay menu item at okinawasun is the smoothie (around 1,000 yen).
The menu includes not only simple smoothies with fruit and ice cream mixed in a blender but also beautifully crafted smoothies with toppings that look like sweets and are uniquely Okinawan.
Among them is a dragon fruit smoothie that is said to contain 75 times more dietary fiber than a banana, called the “Dragon Fruit Marble Island Smoothie,” with bright pink and purple vitamin colors!
The main ingredients are dragon fruit and passion fruit from the local town of Motobu, which are not only rich and delicious but also good for your beauty and health.
In addition, the “Chocolat Banana Smoothie” using the superfood “cacao nibs” is not only delicious but is also expected to have anti-aging and stress-relieving effects.
This product is only available for a limited time, but the sales period is not set for a specific time, so you will be lucky if you come across it.
The smoothies are filled with Okinawan mangoes, passion fruit, and Shikwasa (Okinawan shikuwasa), and the colorful yellow, purple, and white smoothies have the greatest impact!
The “Okinawa Mango Mountain Chocolat Banana Smoothie” is particularly impressive with its mangoes piled high on top of the smoothie!
Mangoes are a typical Okinawan delicacy, but they too have their season, so they are not available all year round. The mango season starts around the beginning of summer and ends in fall (June to September), so if you want to try mangoes, it is recommended to visit during this period!
Point 3: You can buy unique souvenirs at “okinawasun!
Although “okinawasun” is not a large store, it sells souvenirs in its lovely interior.
In particular, Ryukyu glass earrings like the one in the photo, hair bands, felt patches with motifs of hibiscus, sea creatures, animals, and humorous seers, etc., are also lovely and you will want to pick them up.
It is a very high point that you can not only drink delicious smoothies but also buy original souvenirs that you cannot find anywhere else!
