Outlets have the image of being a place where you can buy luxury brand goods at affordable prices.

Some people might wonder, "Why would you go to an outlet mall when Okinawa is already full of tourist attractions?"

While few people might think of making a special trip to visit, the only outlet mall in Okinawa, "Ashibinaa," which I'm about to introduce, is just a 15-minute drive from Naha Airport.

The Tomigusuku Interchange on the expressway is nearby, and there are many rental car shops in the area, so it's convenient to stop by on the last day of your trip, such as after arrival or before returning your rental car.

This time, we'll guide you on how to enjoy Ashibinaa, Okinawa's only outlet mall, and introduce you to the surrounding facilities!
I hope this has shown you that outlet stores can be used in this way too.

1. What kind of shops are there?

There are over 100 shops in Ashibinaa in total.
They offer a wide variety of brands, from high-end to casual.

The first floor is mainly a shopping area, and the second floor is a restaurant.
The store boasts a wide selection of 15 stores, including high-end brands like Gucci, Armani, and Ferragamo, as well as popular sports brands that appeal to all ages, such as GAP, adidas, and Reebok.

The swimwear brand PEAK & PINE sells a wide variety of swimwear and beachwear throughout the year.

I wasn't planning on going into the ocean, but now I really want to! Wouldn't it be great to find a cute swimsuit at an outlet price in that situation?
There are also men's versions available, so you can rest assured.

Since there are kids' brands like Mikihouse and Kimuratan, it might be a good idea to buy bulky children's clothes locally.
There are also souvenir shops that offer Okinawan-style gifts, so you don't have to worry if you forget to buy something.
For groceries, I recommend Okinawa specialty shop Bidou, and if you want something a little different from the crowd, I recommend Kariyushi shop Ryukyu no Sato.

Since stores change frequently, if there's a brand you're interested in, please check their official website beforehand before visiting.

2. Dining area

There are a total of eight restaurants in Ashibinaa.
There are cafes where you can easily stop by for a break, as well as restaurants where you can enjoy a full meal.
Familiar options like Starbucks and Baskin-Robbins are perfect for when you want to grab a quick cup of tea.

But since you're in Okinawa, you'll want to go to a shop that's unique to Okinawa, right?
If you're looking for a hearty meal, I recommend "Yappari Steak 5th Ashibinaa Store".
Yappari Steak is a steak chain restaurant that operates only in Okinawa Prefecture, and the meat is served piping hot on a Mount Fuji lava stone plate.

The key is to enjoy the meat, cooked slowly and thoroughly until it's almost too rare. You're sure to be satisfied with the portion size!
The fact that rice, soup, and salad are all-you-can-eat is also a great plus.
On the other hand, for those who are health-conscious, how about "Okinawa Vegetable Garden Buffet Karakara Ashibinaa Branch"?

This is one of only two buffet restaurants in Okinawa Prefecture, where you can enjoy healthy dishes made with plenty of local island vegetables.

The restaurant is bright and spacious, and you can even borrow baby chairs, making it perfect for families.
Additionally, food stalls are set up in the Ashibinaa Square, an outdoor courtyard located right in front of the information center.

On a nice day, you might want to get takeout and eat it on an outdoor bench.

3. Information about the area around Ashibinaa

Not only are there plenty of shopping and dining options, but it's also great that you can find different kinds of fun if you venture a little further afield.
Below, we will introduce information about the area surrounding Ashibinaa.

3-1 Chura SUN Beach

Ashibinaa boasts excellent accessibility with its proximity to the airport and rental car shops, and you can reach the beach in about 15 minutes by car.
Its name is "Chura SUN Beach".

This beach is characterized by its exceptionally well-maintained condition.
They have not only toilets and showers, but also a cafe and a marine shop.

There's also a large BBQ area, so it's bustling with people on holidays.
Reservations are required for groups of 5 or more people, at least 3 days in advance. You will need to bring your own plates, chopsticks, and condiments, but you can also buy them at a nearby shop.

Because it's close to the airport, you can see airplanes up close, and on clear evenings you can also enjoy a beautiful sunset.

The beach is located within Toyosaki Seaside Park, making it perfect not only for swimming but also for a short stroll.

3-2 Michi-no-Eki Toyosaki

"Michi-no-Eki Toyosaki" is located across the road from Ashibinaa, about a 5-minute walk away.

At the "Nanairobatake" food hall located on the premises, you can find not only souvenirs but also fresh vegetables and fruits sourced from all over Okinawa.

Tomigusuku City is a major producer of mangoes, so if you time your visit right in season, you might be able to get them at a much better price than usual.

Additionally, the restaurant "Ewazaki" located inside the store serves Okinawan soba noodles, champuru, taco rice, and other Okinawan diner dishes that you'll want to try at least once when you visit Okinawa.

They also have takeout options like Jushi rice balls, tempura, and island-style bento boxes, so it's perfect even for those short on time.
