It is a village-managed man-made beach located in Uza, Yomitan Village, on the south side of Cape Zanba, the westernmost cape of the main island. The beach is not easily affected by waves due to the large coral reef offshore, and the calm, shallow waters are safe for families to enjoy. There is an activity park operated by the adjacent Samba Resort (Cape Samba Royal Hotel), making it one of the best areas for marine sports in Okinawa.
A short walk or drive north from the beach, Cape Zanba is a scenic spot where a 30-meter-high cliff stretches for about 2 km. At the tip of the cape stands the chalky Cape Zanba Lighthouse, and on a clear day, the Kerama Islands can be seen. It is known as the last place on the main island where the sun sets, and the sunset from Zanba Beach is spectacular. Around the cape, there is also the Zanba Big Lion (a giant 7-meter-high Shisa) and an animal plaza.
Free parking, showers, toilets, changing rooms, a store, and a watchman on duty; BBQ and parasol/chair rentals available.
