The second cafe is located near Oshima, which is an island on the south side of Okinawa main island.

Hamabe Tea House is proud with their home-roasted coffee. It is indeed rejuvenating while enjoying the ocean view with a cup of nice home-brew coffee.
One tip from the expert, try to go early if you can as the roads are quite narrow and it can be pretty busy at the parking lot.
