Miyako Island, located in Okinawa, is one of Japan’s most popular travel destinations. In addition to its beautiful resorts, the eight islands of varying sizes boast a rich history and deep cultural heritage. With its crystal-clear waters, stunning natural landscapes, and unique culture shaped over centuries, Miyako Island offers a truly distinctive experience. But what if one were to visit Miyako Island not just as a tourist, but as if living there—fully immersing oneself in the local lifestyle?

Shop at the supermarket, then stroll to the beach.
Hang laundry, get a haircut, and cool off at the movie theater.
Dinner with a friend and a borrowed book.
Chat over tea at the local inn.

A week immersed in Miyako Island’s culture, experiencing its everyday rhythms.
Feel connected to the land, inspired, and inspired to share and care.
A “journey of living” that stays with you long after it ends.
