ABOUT

What is Nagannu Island?

Nagannu Island is an uninhabited island in the Chiibishi Atoll, at the gateway to the Kerama Islands. It is one of the closest Kerama islands to the main island of Okinawa, and just about 45 minutes by boat from Chatan.

"I'd love to visit a remote island, but I don't have the time."

If that sounds like you, this is the island for you.

From Chatan, just a short hop across the sea.
