About 1 hour from Naha Airport. In January 2025, a Japanese tea store will open in Gala Blue Sea, located in Takashiho, Yomitan Village!
The staff carefully selects tea leaves from all over the country, and they also carefully select the utensils and the temperature of the water used to make the tea.
This is the perfect cafe for sunset or sangjicha*, so be sure to stop by!
Sanjicha*・・・・ means “snack time” in Okinawa.
Point 1: Where is the Sanpuku Chabo location? What are the particular thoughts?
Sanpuku Chabo is located in Takashiho, Yomitan Village, Okinawa, but with a great view on the second floor of the Aoi Umi facility.
Gala Aoi-Umi is a complex of hands-on workshops and restaurant booths located near the ocean, and is well known as a popular destination for tourists and locals alike for dining.
Gala Aoi-umi is sometimes used as a venue for many events, including the popular pottery festival, Yachimun Market.
Sanpuku Chabo offers a relaxing place to take a break when you stop by for an event or a meal!
A cup of delicious Japanese tea would be the perfect way to spend a relaxing time in Okinawa.
Point 2: Space with special attention to detail
At Sanpuku Chabo, the staff’s attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the restaurant.
One of them is the space.
The staff’s wish to create a restaurant in the style of a traditional Kyoto townhouse with a view of the sea has been reproduced in the restaurant, creating a very relaxing space.
The view from the restaurant is a wonderful space with a panoramic view of the ocean.
One of the charms of Sanpuku Chabo is that you can enjoy not only the tea but also the scenery, especially at sunset.
Point 3: Specialty teas
As a specialty Japanese tea store, Sanpuku Chabo pays close attention to the details of making tea.
The tea is made according to the region where it is grown, the temperature of the hot water, and even the amount of hot water.
The tea lineup will continue to change in the future, so be sure to try a variety of teas when you visit.
You will be able to enjoy a variety of teas when you visit.
Also, as a sweet menu served with Japanese tea, you can enjoy original tea cakes from cafes and confectionery stores in the village.
The most popular item is the Shio-mame Daifuku (salted soy bean cake) made with Okinawan salt called shimamasu!
We hope you will enjoy it with your tea.
