What is Kouri Bridge?

The Kouri Bridge, opened in 2005, is a free bridge that connects the main island of Okinawa to Kouri Island. On both sides of the bridge, the beautiful ocean changes from emerald green to cobalt blue, giving visitors the feeling as if they are driving on the sea.

It is one of the most popular spots in Okinawa, always ranking high in searches such as "Okinawa scenic drive," "Okinawa rental car sightseeing," and "northern Okinawa main island sightseeing spots.

The scenery on clear days, as well as sunset time and the contrast of blue sky and white clouds, are also attractive. It is also an excellent road for taking photos and videos, and has become a hot topic on social networking sites.
