"I want to work at a cafe with an ocean view while on a workation in Okinawa!

I usually work remotely from home, but sometimes I want to change things up and work at a cafe. However, I'm worried about whether there are power outlets and Wi-Fi...

Are you facing similar concerns?

Currently, there is a growing demand for workations in Okinawa, and the sight of digital nomads and freelancers working in cafes is becoming more common.

Many people who work remotely or from home also want to work outside their homes occasionally.

For those who want to work in a place where they can fully enjoy their workation in Okinawa and find a comfortable workspace outside of home, I have compiled a list of recommended laptop-friendly cafes in Central Okinawa!

Central Okinawa refers to the areas of Urasoe City, Ginowan City, Okinawa City, Uruma City, and Nakagami District (including Chatan Town and Yomitan Village).

This area includes popular tourist spots like Chatan Town and Yomitan Village, which are located by the sea and are ideal for those who want to work while enjoying the ocean view.

However, it's important to note that there is very little monorail service in this area, making a car essential for getting around.

Therefore, the availability of parking is also an important factor to consider when visiting.

In this guide, I have carefully selected cafes in Central Okinawa that are conducive to working, along with information on Wi-Fi speeds, the number of power outlets, access, and parking availability!"
