Experience the cultural heart of Okinawa on this scenic 18km guided cycling tour through Naha. Ride past some of the city’s most historic and spiritual landmarks while enjoying beautiful coastal views and quiet backstreets.
Starting at Naha Umisora Park, we’ll first visit Naminoue Shrine, a striking shrine perched above the sea, where locals come to pray for safe travels. Then, we’ll cycle inland to Sougenji Temple, the peaceful resting place of the Ryukyu royal family, rich in history and atmosphere.
This tour continues with a gentle climb to Shurijo Castle, once the political and cultural center of the Ryukyu Kingdom. After taking in the views, we’ll descend toward Naha Port, where you’ll catch a glimpse of Okinawa’s connection to the sea—both past and present.
Final stop is Onoyama Park, a hidden gem where you can relax and enjoy panoramic views of the city and ocean. Afterwards we'll head back to Umisora Park to conclude the tour.
