10 minutes by boat from Iriomote Island, Okinawa. Another 10 minutes on foot. Ida-no-hama, a secluded beach on a remote island in Okinawa, is one of the most attractive beaches in Okinawa. The sea looks clear all the way to the back, and the sand is pure white.
Furthermore, it is a sightseeing spot with many elements to enjoy such as sea kayaking, snorkeling, and tours.
Point 1: The crystal clear sea and white sandy beaches that are so harmonious that they are a feast for the eyes!
Ida-no-hama is a breathtakingly beautiful beach on Iriomote Island. It is a charming beach with pure white sand, crystal clear sea, and the horizon in harmony with it.
Not many tourists come here, so you can have such a beautiful sea all to yourself! We recommend just gazing at the ocean, swimming in the sea, etc. This is a good spot for those who are tired of their daily routine and want to experience the excitement.
Another feature of Ida no Hama is the abundance of hermit crabs. It would be fun to be healed by hermit crabs while gazing at the beautiful sea!
Point 2: Enjoy snorkeling and kayaking at Ida beach!
At Ida beach, with its spectacular coral blue color, snorkeling and kayaking are recommended to enjoy the crystal clear waters to the fullest!
Snorkeling is a great way to enjoy the underwater world and coral reefs. If the weather is clear, you will be able to see the sunlight and the wonderful ocean match. It is a great experience to see colorful tropical creatures and view precious coral up close. Maybe you will even see sea turtles!
Sea kayaking can also be done by three people with family or friends. You will be very happy to see the sea and fish while moving the sea kayak by yourself! You will feel as if time has stopped.
Both snorkeling and sea kayaking tours are available, so even first-timers can enjoy the experience. Please try them out. Hoshi no Resort also offers tours!
Point 3: A secluded beach only 10 minutes by boat from Iriomote Island for those in the know!
One of the charms of Ida no Hama is that it is located in a secluded area only 10 minutes away from Iriomote Island by boat. You will feel like having your own island and beach!
To get to Ida no Hama, take a boat from Shirahama Port in Iriomote Island to Funauki Port. After that, you will arrive at Ida no Hama in 10 minutes on foot! It comes with an advantage that you can enjoy a pleasant breeze while you are on the boat, looking at the sea.
The boat fare is inexpensive at 960 yen for a round trip, so you can go easily.
Also, the area from the port to the beach is rich in nature, so you can enjoy the whole trip from the port to the beach and back!
