Okinawa Kuroshima

The heart-shaped Kuroshima Island is also known as the Heart Island. It has a population of only about 300 people and is a small island with an area of ​​only 10 square kilometers. The residents of Kuroshima Island mainly engage in cattle breeding, raising nearly 3,000 cattle in total. There are far more cattle than humans. The island adopts grazing style cattle breeding. The flat terrain allows people to have a panoramic view of the endless grassland full of cattle, which makes people feel leisurely and contented. In late February every year, the island will hold Okinawa's famous Kuroshima Beef Festival. Not only can you taste a variety of Wagyu meals at the venue, the most popular event is the Wagyu lottery, which means you can take a whole cow home. In addition to watching cattle, the waters of Kuroshima Island are surrounded by large groups of coral reefs. The tranquil ocean is very suitable for snorkeling. It is a popular diving hotspot in Okinawa. Even if you don't know how to dive, Kuroshima Island, which has a beautiful sea view, has also been a popular attraction for locals to take a day trip, bicycle tour, and check-in tour in recent years.
