Staying on Kouri means you can ride the ring road before the day-trippers cross the bridge. Start with the island, while the north shore is quiet, then take the bridge to Yagaji for the lanes along its south shore and come back over the bridge for lunch.
e-CHARIty Okinawa delivers e-bikes to stays in Nakijin and Nago, and GREEN RIDE OKINAWA keeps app-based stations on the island. On a windy winter day, swap the order and spend the morning at Kouri Beach in the lee of the island.
