Bise Fukugi Tree Road
備瀬のフクギ並木
A green tunnel of about 20,000 fukugi trees in Bise village in Motobu Town, explored on foot, by bicycle or by water buffalo cart, ending at the sea.
Bise Village preserves a traditional Okinawan settlement layout, with households planting century-old fukugi trees as windbreaks. Together they form a shady lane about 1 km long, with occasional red-tiled houses and stone walls. You can explore on foot, rent a bicycle (about 1 hour for 500 yen) or ride a water buffalo cart. At the end of the lane, the shore at Bise Cape is good for snorkeling at low tide, and in the evening you can watch the sunset toward Ie Island. Admission is free. It is about a 15-minute walk from Churaumi Aquarium, so the two are easy to combine. This is a residential area, so please keep quiet and do not enter private homes.
