Yonaha-Maehama, Coastal beach in Miyakojima, Japan.
The seven-kilometer shoreline features pure white sand bordered by clear emerald waters along the western coast of Miyako Island.
The beach has experienced changes in its structure over time due to wind patterns and shifting hurricane paths affecting the coastal erosion patterns.
Local residents refer to the distinct color of the water as Miyako Blue, which has become a recognized symbol throughout the Okinawa region.
Visitors can access the beach facilities including showers, restrooms, rental equipment, and designated barbecue areas from April through October.
The beach serves as a competition venue for the swimming segment of an annual Strongman triathlon event held at the end of April.
