Renowned for its breathtaking panoramic views, the cape offers a mesmerizing fusion of rugged cliffs, deep blue seas, and expansive skies. The journey to Cape Hedo is an adventure in itself, with winding roads that lead to this remote destination, providing glimpses of Okinawa's scenic countryside along the way.

Extreme view ~ You have to invest quite a lot of time to go to the northernmost part of Okinawa, but you can enjoy the overwhelming scenery of Mother Nature by blending the sea and the mountains in the distance.
The northernmost tip of the main island of Okinawa. If it's sunny, you can see Yoron Island. And the blueness of the sea and the cliffs that are very beautiful are too beautiful. When I look in the sea 〜, there are some fish that seem to be Nanyobudai swimming. If you are lucky, you may see sea turtles ✨ It is a recommended spot where you can feel the splendor of nature.
If you want to feel another charm of Okinawa, I recommend you to go there once. In particular, the night sky seen in Hedomisaki is a really beautiful night sky that can't be seen anywhere in Korea. I'm not going to regret it.
It seems that you have entered another world, a place worth visiting at the northernmost tip of Okinawa.
The scenery and natural environment are superb, but the road is far away and it is difficult to reach if it is not a self-driving tour or a chartered car.
