About food theme park "Nago Agripark"

90 minutes by car from Naha Airport. Located in Nago, the northern part of Okinawa Island, this complex was reopened in May 2024, with free admission to families under the theme of "Food Theme Park". It is a new spot with plenty of gourmets, souvenirs and experiences where you can feel the blessings of Okinawa's rich natural blessings.

I want to stop by when I visit the northern part of Motojima! What is the charm of Nago Agripark?

After passing through the entrance, you will see a spacious lawn square right in front of you! There are also sunshade tents and outside tables, so you can spend a relaxing time playing with your children and taking a break.

Not only with children, but also the spacious, quiet and calm atmosphere is perfect for traveling alone or a date spot.

In addition, there are products that can only be purchased here, such as original sweets from facilities in the northern part of Okinawa Island.

 

With the theme of contributing to the community, there are plenty of recommendations, such as menus using local ingredients, rich milk Gerard made by local gelato shops, and "Afoguard" that eats with espresso.

 

Gourmets and souvenirs made with Yanbaru ingredients are popular!
