Hamahiga Island 浜比嘉島

This is Okinawa's east coast.  Pacific Ocean.  It is very hard to find the beach with no coral pieces in Okinawa.  This beach is ok for the boys to practice skimboard.

A squall just passed about 10 minute ago.☔️

Next, we explored a small island.

Hamahiga Island is a small island we can go by car from Okinawa using two bridges.

It is a small island and there are some cool views here.
