Miyakojima's Best Beaches & Capes

Miyakojima’s coastline is defined by unique geological formations, from the iconic limestone arch of Sunayama Beach to the massive coral boulders deposited by the 1771 Meiwa Tsunami. This selection highlights the island's diverse coastal geography, including the panoramic northwestern views from Cape Nishihenna and the calm, spring-fed waters of Boragawa. These sites offer insights into the island's seismic history and feature natural sea caves and shallow lagoons protected by coral reefs.
