【2024最新】沖縄県・北部にあるコワーキングスペース4選

Currently, the demand for workation is increasing in Okinawa, and we're seeing more nomad workers and freelancers working in coworking spaces.Moreover, many people who work remotely or from home might want tooccasionally work somewhere other than their homes.

For those who:

  • Want to work in a place where they can fully enjoy their workation in Okinawa

  • Are looking for a comfortable workspace outside their home

We've compiled a list of recommended coworking spaces in northern Okinawa! The northern area refers to Nago City and Kunigami District (including Motobu Town, Kunigami Village, Ogimi Village, Higashi Village, and Nakijin Village).The northern part is called "Yanbaru" and is a place overflowing with nature, including forests and the sea.For those who want to experience a workation while fully immersing themselves in Okinawa's nature, the northern area is highly recommended!However, as there is little public transportation in the north, a car is essential. Therefore, the availability of parking may be an important factor when visiting.In this article, we've carefully selected coworking spaces in northern Okinawa and compiled information on Wi-Fi speed, number of power outlets, access, parking, and more!
