Miyako Islands

Region
ABOUT

Some intensive beach therapy can be engaged in here. In the southwest corner of the main island, Miyako-jima, is Maehama, perhaps Japan's finest beach, and across the bridge on the adjacent tiny island of Kurima-jima lies the gorgeous Nagamahama Beach. Throughout the Miyako Islands you can find bright-white sand and emerald, turquoise, and cobalt waters. If you're traveling to Miyako-jima in July or August or during a Japanese holiday, book in advance.
