From your room, you can overlook the panoramic beach named “Uppama Beach,” and walk there in 5 minutes.  This white sand beach is a 2-kilometer-long and means a “big beach” in Okinawan dialect.  It embraces both good appearances of untouched beach with fewer visitors. It is, of course, a resort beach.  Let us introduce 13 reasons why we recommend the plan “Let’s stay in tinto*tinto and have fun in Uppama Beach!”

To the beach, where you can look over from your room, you can walk in 5 minutes

▲”Uppama Beach,” you can look down from your room and walk there in 5 minutes

▲The beach is right close to you after you go down the stairs by the room and the slope.

The individual shower in front of your room

▲With the bathing suit on, you can easily come and go to the beach from your room.  Although you can take a shower on the beach, you can also use a shower on the backyard. If you come back to the room soon after you swim in the sea, you can clean the sands or the seawater off your body or beach items.

Not many people come to Uppama Beach even in the mid summer.

▲You may think that you are in the private beach because this beach is not so crowded, even in the middle of the summer.

▲If you don’t like the crowded resort beach or you don’t relax at the natural beach where nobody come,  this beach is the place for you.

The moderately untouched beach

▲Uppama Beach has been left untouched.  If you compare it with the arranged resort beach or the artificial beach in town, you must realize what the real Okinawan beach is all about.

▲You can find many sea friends, such as floated coral reefs and shells, concave land hermit crab and small crabs.  You can also enjoy beach combing.

Kouri island is right in front of you.

▲Uppama Beach is ahead of Kouri island, which is one of the most popular places in the northern part of Okinawa.

▲Kouri island, too, has beautiful beaches, but almost all the beaches there are crowded for its popularity.  Uppama Beach shares the same ocean area with Kouri island, so you can definitely be satisfied with the clear ocean in Uppama Beach.

The best place to play safely with your kids because of the shallow sea

▲You can find the reefs 1-kilometer far away from the beach.  This is the tremendous place for small kids to play in the sea, and for babies to play in the sea for the first time, as well.

▲This beach faces the north, so the wind from the south soundly blows to the horizon in the summer.  The sea condition is perfect both in the sea area and the sea state.

It’s just stunningly beautiful!

▲This beach  stands to the north.  It means that the sun is shining from the south to the beach.  That is why the various colors of blue ocean with the white sand color of the sea bottom beautifully reflect the beach.

▲You can enjoy having fun in the sea and be fully relaxed with the tender view of the sea with the healing effect from the beach, as well.

The spectacular sunset view in the summer

▲This beach faces the north, so you cannot see the sun setting in the horizon as you see on the west coast.  Besides, in the summer you can see the brilliant sun setting slowly to the ocean on your left.

▲You never fail to find out that Uppama Beach on the daytime is picturesque and in the evening, as well.

You can use the table and the seats with a tent for free.

▲From July to September, “Beach House Oohama ya”opens and they set the tables and seats with tents on the beach.  If the customers who stays at tinto*tinto show the stay certificates, you can use the table and seats for free, except for the time when they are fully used or reserved.
