与那覇前浜 · Okinawa, Japan

A 7 km white sand beach hailed as 'the finest scenery in the Orient.' Located at the southern end of the Kurima Bridge. It serves as the swimming leg of the All-Japan Triathlon Miyakojima. The sunset and the silhouette of Kurima Island are especially famous. A rash guard is recommended when entering the water during box jellyfish season.
