Hi, I’m Tabi!

Meet Furuzamami and Ama beaches. Check island transport and the day’s swimming guidance first.

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

01 · EXPLORE

Two places to begin

Two different places: start with whichever interests you.

Furuzamami Beach shoreline in December 200901

A first-visit stop

Furuzamami Beach

古座間味ビーチ

A sandy beach on Zamami Island, photographed in December 2009. Swimming zones may be restricted at low tide for safety and coral protection. Follow lifeguards’ instructions and do not stand on coral.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

Ama Beach shoreline in December 200902

A first-visit stop

Ama Beach

阿真ビーチ

A beach on western Zamami Island, shown in December 2009. Shallow water does not guarantee safety: check tides, wind and the day’s swimming status. Do not chase or touch wildlife.

Getting there
Check the current approach and return transport on the map.

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Explore mozuku rice bowls as an Okinawan dish. MAFF describes seaweed stir-fried with meat and vegetables over rice. Ask separately whether a Zamami restaurant serves it, and check ingredients and allergens.

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.
