Located in the northern corner of Ocean Expo Park, this beach might seem just a forced man-made addition to give the theme park some more appeal. Truth cannot be further from that. Emerlad Beach is actually an extremely enjoyable beach, which was inserted twice in the Japan's top 100 bathing beaches list, and with certified AA top quality water. The beach can accomodate around 3000 people and comes in a "Y" shape, as you can see in the photo above. It is divided into three sections: one for relax (quiet side), one to enjoy the view on the sea and the near Iejima Island (view side), and one to have fun and play (play side). Did you Know? Like most Japanese beaches, Emerald Beach is very clean and tidy. Visitors will be able to use services like free showers, toilets, lockers, and changing rooms. There will be also a little kiosk selling drinks and snacks. The safety of bathers is ensured by the presence of many lifeguards and by the shallow water. The view on Iejima Island is absolutely stunning. Despite being artificial, Emerald Beach will give its visitors a very natural feeling. Also the marine life of Okinawa treats the beach as a a favorite spot: sea turtles often come to Emerald Beach to lay egg before returning to the sea. Can there be a better proof than that?
