I like the loose feeling that is typical of Okinawa!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was worried that it might be a mysterious religious group. It seems that the concern about a &#8220;mysterious religious group&#8221; was a misunderstanding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As it turns out, it was correct that the company owns the property, but they are in the process of building something like a theme park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The company is in the process of building a theme park of sorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When the theme park is completed, it will be open to the public on an &#8220;introduction only&#8221; basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope to be friends with someone &#8220;related to Adochi Island&#8221; by then.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Point 2: Are there any activities at &#8220;Adochi Island Beach&#8221;?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BfNiSNZD5G3\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\"background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;margin: 1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:99.375%;width:-webkit-calc(100% -

It is a caf\u00e9 and Thai restaurant with a terrace with a spectacular view. The spicy Thai food arranged to be easy to eat for Japanese people goes well with Okinawa&#8217;s hot climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is also blue rice and tea cooked with tea from a legume plant called butterfly pea. This butterfly pea is one of the superfoods, and we recommend drinking it as a tea to help you sleep well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please visit and have a look!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\u5357\u57ce\u5e02\u306b\u3042\u308b\u9589\u9396\u3055\u308c\u305f\u7121\u4eba\u5cf6\u300c\u30a2\u30fc\u30c2\u5cf6\u300d\u306b\u6f5c\u5165\u3057\u307e\u3057\u305f\" width=\"728\" height=\"410\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IS_iGB9-2iI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About 46 minutes by car from Naha Airport.
