We had the special Okinawa soba "Undersea Teahouse Special" with pork ribs, sanmai pork, yushi tofu, and mozuku seaweed, and taco rice during lunch time. The noodles are made with mozuku seaweed, and they were chewy and delicious. The restaurant is divided into three parts: LUNCH TIME: 10:30-15:00 CAFE TIME: 15:00-17:00 SUNSET BAR: 17:00-21:00 The menu changes depending on the time of day, but you can enjoy the ever-changing sky and sea no matter what time of day you go.

The Kaichu Road in Okinawa is a breathtaking driving spot where you can feel like you're driving on the sea. This road, which serves as a bridge crossing the sea, boasts an excellent location where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the clear blue sea and white sandy beaches. On sunny days, the color of the sea shines vividly, and the natural beauty is truly soothing. There are also beaches and observation decks along the way where you can stop by and fully enjoy the scenery of Okinawa while driving. Be sure to visit this special road that runs over the sea. 📍 Uruma City, Okinawa Prefecture

An underwater teahouse (it's like a roadside station) located on one of Okinawa's best driving routes. It was a chilly day, so I ordered taco rice with mozuku soup, but it seems that the set also came with mozuku soup (there is a picture of it on the menu, but it's not written on the menu), so I ended up drinking a lot of mozuku soup... My stomach was totally full, so if you go, be careful!! (lol) It's a funny story now, but the waiter was laughing while bringing it, and I wish he'd confirmed when I ordered. #0yentravelnovember

Recommended attractions for self-driving tours in Okinawa. The scenery is very beautiful. I was shocked when I went there for the first time. You can go to Aeon Shopping before and after the attractions #Self-driving tour #Okinawa
