Hi, I’m Tabi!

Itoman is a city in southern Okinawa Island. Learn about wartime experiences and peace at the Himeyuri museum, then explore the fishing harbor’s working waterfront. Plan transport to these separate stops.

This guide covers places within Itoman, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Himeyuri Peace Museum

ひめゆり平和祈念資料館

A museum sharing the Himeyuri students’ experiences of the Battle of Okinawa. The photo shows its entrance in 2010; exhibition rooms prohibit photography and recording. Check museum admission, monument access and typhoon closures separately.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Okinawa’s fisheries federation lists Itoman Fish Center as a seafood outlet. The old harbor in the photograph is a different facility. Check fish origins, preparation, allergens and current opening conditions.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the first destination’s permitted entrance → public areas. Choose the other stop after checking separate transport and access.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check entry arrangements and return transport first.
  • Choose one stop to suit weather, slopes and local restrictions.
  • Respect private areas and photography rules; check food ingredients locally.
