Ka Noa Garden opened in July 2021 in Motobu Town, in the northern part of Okinawa Island.
With the Okinawan sea right in front of you, and plenty of open-air seating centered around a large wooden deck, the cafe offers views of Sesoko Island, Ie Island, and Minna Island, as well as the sunset in the evening.
Why not enjoy a plate menu perfectly suited to Okinawa's climate while gazing at the beautiful natural scenery and spending a truly relaxing and special time?
This time, I'd like to introduce a recommended cafe, "Ka Noa Garden," that you should definitely visit when you go to northern Okinawa.

1. Look for the white container! A cute cafe from the outside.

The cafe has flowers and plants planted right from the entrance, giving it a tropical feel.
Climbing the stairs, you'll find wooden decks on either side of the food truck, where you can choose between terrace seating or container seating.
And of course, the ocean awaits!

The terrace seating is close to the sea and offers a fantastic sense of openness. Some spots even have shade.
The shimmering sunlight filtering through the shading enhances the resort atmosphere!

The container is air-conditioned and has sofa seating. The glass doors on the ocean side can also be fully opened.

At the end of the wooden deck, by the sea, there are colorful benches.
There are stairs next to the food truck that lead down to a private beach, so if you want to enjoy the sea, be sure to check it out.

The ocean view from your seat is spectacular, but don't miss the wall art painted on the shipping containers!

Cute and pop art illustrations. You'll definitely want to take pictures of them.

2. Ka Noa Garden Menu

With such a wide variety of dishes that evoke a tropical atmosphere, you'll be spoiled for choice!
The menu includes dishes such as garlic shrimp, ahi poke, grilled chicken, loco moco, and panini.
We have several kinds of panini, including teriyaki, shrimp, and fish.
A single meal costs 850 yen, while a plate set including salad and other items costs 1,250 yen (1,200 yen if it includes a panini).

There's a photo album of dishes near the ordering counter, so if you're having trouble deciding what to order, you can look at the pictures to help you choose!
The drink menu offers a wide variety of coffees, teas, cola, and fresh fruit juices, making it hard to choose just one.
They also sell alcohol, including Orion beer, several kinds of imported beers, and fruit cocktails—a variety that's perfect for relaxing in a tropical paradise!

3. Popular menu items at Ka Noa Garden

The cafe's popular menu item is garlic shrimp. It comes with six large shrimp and a side of french fries.
The plump shrimp have firm yet tender flesh, and the garlic adds a punchy flavor that makes them irresistibly delicious.

This is another popular menu item: Ahi Poke.
Tuna coated in a sweet and savory sauce, enjoyed with avocado and egg yolk, creates a spicy yet creamy flavor!
I ordered the ahi poke as a plate set. The plate set came with a cold noodle salad, mashed potatoes, and taco meat with tortillas.
If you order a set meal, it makes a complete meal, or you can use it as a cafe and just grab a few individual items.

4. Ka Noa Garden Access Information

Kanoa Garden is located about a 10-minute drive from Churaumi Aquarium.
If you're coming from Nago City, drive for about 3 minutes along the Motobu Loop Line after crossing the Motobu Bridge in Motobu Town, and you'll see a white container on the ocean side. The cafe has parking for about 5 cars.
The opening hours are from 11:00 to 22:00, but the closing days are irregular, so we recommend checking their social media or other sources before you go.
Eating a meal with an ocean view will create wonderful memories. Be sure to visit when you're in northern Okinawa!
