Information About Kerama - Japan Travel Guide |
| The Kerama Islands can be seen in the western distance with the naked eye from Naha Port, and a regular ferry can take you there in an hour and a half. The island group is made up of twenty islands and is divided into two villages, Tokashiki Village and Zamami Village. Designated as a National Park, many people spend their leisure time on the islands during the summer swimming, water-skiing and windsurfing. The island's location is an advantage because of its short distance from Naha, making it one of the best destinations for resort activities. Whale watching in the waters off the Keramas is also possible.
The islands were one of the first landing places of the U.S. Forces during the Battle of Okinawa. U.S. Forces landed on Aka Island on March 26, 1945, and went on to take Yakabi, Zamami, Geruma and Tokashiki Islands. About 560 residents committed suicide by order of the Japanese troops stationed there in order to avoid capture. The Shiratama Monument on Tokashiki and Heiwa Monument on Zamami stand as a symbol of the sad chapter in the history of the Kerama Islands.
