Über diesen Ort: Miyako-jima
Miyakojima ist die Hauptinsel des Miyako-Archipels. Das glasklare „Miyako-Blau", Yonaha Maehama (Japans bester Strand), die 3.540 m lange Irabu-Brücke (Japans längste mautfreie Brücke), Ikema-Brücke und der natürliche Bogen am Sunayama-Strand machen es zum subtropischen Paradies.
Highlights
- Yonaha Maehama Beach — a 7 km stretch of pure-white sand, dubbed Asia's most beautiful, with Kurima Bridge framing classic sunset scenes
- Irabu Bridge — Japan's longest toll-free bridge (3,540 m, opened 2015); a perfectly straight composition above an emerald sea
- Miyako Blue waters — visibility approaching 40 m on clear midday with a polarizing filter, the gradient of coral and sand is unmatched
- Sunayama Beach — a hidden cove with a natural rock arch; silhouette compositions at sunset, reachable on a ~20-minute walk
- Ikema Bridge and Ikemajima — 1,425 m bridge framing Miyakojima from above, plus Ikema Wetland and migratory bird habitat
