JUNGLIA OKINAWA: An Immersive Nature-Themed Park
Opened in 2025 in Yanbaru Forest in the northern part of Okinawa’s main island, JUNGLIA OKINAWA is a new type of theme park where you can immerse yourself in nature. Inside the park, you’ll find rides where you can encounter giant dinosaurs, thrilling attractions, authentic gourmet food and live entertainment for families, and experiences that will excite both children and adults alike.
The entire park feels like the stage of a story, and visitors become the protagonists of this world. Set in a jungle inhabited by dinosaurs, thrilling adventures await. The impressive productions and experiences that make the most of Yambaru’s natural environment promise a special time you won’t find anywhere else.
What’s especially noteworthy is the attention to guest comfort throughout the park. From multilingual staff and well-equipped facilities to measures against Okinawa’s hot climate, everything is in place to ensure a comfortable visit.
Peace of Mind for International Visitors: A Review of Park Support & Comfortable Facilities
Multilingual Support System
At JUNGLIA OKINAWA, there are multilingual concierges dedicated to assisting international visitors, providing detailed support on how to enjoy the park! Even if you’re worried about language barriers, you can relax and have fun. Multilingual pamphlets are also available, so you can easily check maps and attraction information at any time.
Measures Against Heat and Sunlight
To help you cope with Okinawa’s strong sun and high temperatures, there are parasol rental booths throughout the park. Water stations are also set up in various locations, making it easy to stay hydrated. In addition, there are three air-conditioned rest areas, so you can take a comfortable break even on hot days.
Efficient Park Touring with the Official App
If you download the official JUNGLIA OKINAWA app, you can check the park map and attraction wait times. It’s easy to plan your route to efficiently enjoy the most popular attractions, making it especially convenient for first-time visitors.
For some popular attractions (the thrill rides in the Junglia Extremes area), a "lottery entry system" is implemented instead of a first-come, first-served basis. You must enter via the official app or a terminal inside the park during the designated time, and only those who win the lottery can experience the attraction.
*You can only experience these attractions if you win the lottery or use a Premium Pass. You cannot join the regular standby line.
How to Access JUNGLIA OKINAWA
The most convenient ways to get to JUNGLIA OKINAWA are by car or by taking the direct bus "JUNGLIA EXPRESS."
If You Go by Rental Car
Renting a car offers the most flexibility. It takes about 90 minutes by car from Naha Airport. This is recommended for those who want to use JUNGLIA as a base for sightseeing and visit other attractions in Okinawa as well.
Some parking lots require reservations, so to ensure smooth entry, we recommend making a reservation in advance before visiting.
JUNGLIA EXPRESS
JUNGLIA EXPRESS is the official direct bus that takes you straight to JUNGLIA without transfers. You can board from major spots such as Naha Airport and Kokusai Street. Since you can travel directly from sightseeing hubs, it’s easy to use even for first-time visitors to Okinawa and is a convenient transportation option for international tourists as well. We actually boarded at the bus stop at the entrance of Kokusai Street, and the boarding point was easy to find. The bus also supports contactless credit card payment, making it smooth and convenient to use.

[Review] Real Experience! 6 Popular Attractions at JUNGLIA OKINAWA
① DINOSAUR SAFARI
Among all the attractions at JUNGLIA OKINAWA, the one you should definitely try first is "DINOSAUR SAFARI." Based on the story that a ferocious T-REX has escaped, participants board a special vehicle as members of a dinosaur protection team tasked with safeguarding herbivores and venture deep into the jungle.
When you actually ride, the shaking of the vehicle is much more intense than expected, and every time you go over steep slopes or bumpy roads, it really feels like you are racing through the jungle.
The biggest highlight is the encounter scene with the T-REX that appears right before your eyes! The intensity is beyond imagination, and it’s so thrilling that you might find yourself screaming.
Another great feature for international visitors is the multilingual audio guide. There is an information sign just before the queue, and you can use the guide simply by asking a staff member. All narration and character lines during the ride are translated, so even if you don’t understand Japanese, you can fully immerse yourself in the story.
② FINDING DINOSAURS
"FINDING DINOSAURS" is an interactive attraction where you search for lost dinosaurs while exploring forests, caves, suspension bridges, and mine carts.
The attraction also introduces dinosaur characteristics and the differences between carnivores and herbivores, making it a fun and educational experience. Since it’s designed for families, I saw several groups with children on the day of my visit. There were also kids laughing happily as they touched small dinosaurs. Be sure to try it with your family! The audio guide is also available, so families visiting from overseas can enjoy it with peace of mind.
③ SKY PHOENIX
"SKY PHOENIX" is a must-try experience for those who love active attractions!
The view that opens up the moment you reach the top is breathtaking! The sense of freedom as you overlook the vast Yanbaru forest is a unique charm of JUNGLIA.
There is a valley beneath your feet, so those who are afraid of heights might feel a bit nervous, but the thrill and the beauty of the scenery you can enjoy at the same time are what make this attraction so special.
After the attraction, there is also a service where you can purchase photos and videos taken during your experience. It’s a great way to take home memories of your visit.
④ TREE-TOP TREKKING
"TREE-TOP TREKKING" is an athletic-style attraction where you cross suspension bridges set high up in the forest. For adults, it’s a relatively calm and enjoyable course, but because of the height, it might be a bit thrilling for children. There are also more challenging courses for adults who want a more intense workout, making it a great option for those looking to get active.
⑤ BUGGY VOLTAGE: Adrenaline Challenge Course
"BUGGY VOLTAGE" is a full-fledged off-road experience recommended for those who crave thrills. The course is designed with a sense of speed, featuring a series of sharp curves and steep slopes, keeping you on edge throughout the ride. As you race over bumpy roads, the sound and vibration of the tires kicking up gravel feel incredibly real, and the dust rising during the drive truly lets you feel the essence of off-roading.
A driver's license is required to operate the two-seater buggy. If you are visiting from overseas, you will need to carry an International Driving Permit, so we recommend preparing this in advance.
⑥ TAM TAM TRAM
The "TAM TAM TRAM" is an attraction where you can enjoy music and guided commentary as you travel through the park. The navigator introduces the park's highlights, making it a great way to get an overview of the entire park. It's also appealing that you can hop on when you're tired of walking and move to the next area while leisurely enjoying the scenery.
Additionally, overseas visitors are given a "Priority Access Ticket" for this attraction. By presenting the ticket you receive at the entrance, you will be guided to the priority lane, allowing for a relatively smooth experience even during busy times.
Shows & Festivals｜Entertainment Experiences with Set Times
Between attractions, be sure to check out the shows and festivals that take place at scheduled times.
WILD BEAT

You can sway your body or clap along to the music, and even without words, you can feel a sense of unity in this entertainment experience.
JUNGLIA SPLASH FES
"JUNGLIA SPLASH FES" is an event where you can enjoy different performances depending on the season, and on the day we visited, the style encouraged the audience to join in the fun. Not only were there performances on stage, but foam flew through the air in time with the music, instantly transforming the entire venue into a festival atmosphere. The show is enjoyable for everyone, and children especially were having a blast playing in the foam.
During the summer season, the show switches to water-based performances, and visitors in the front area can get completely soaked due to the intensity.
JUNGLIA NIGHT FES
The perfect way to end your day is with the night show "JUNGLIA NIGHT FES." With costumes inspired by animals and nature, combined with spectacular lighting effects, you can experience a completely different atmosphere in the park compared to the daytime.

Panorama Dining | A Special Meal with Stunning Views and Flavors
At “Panorama Dining,” you can enjoy a special experience savoring carefully crafted dishes while taking in breathtaking views.
There are three types of seating: the paid “Nest Seats,” which offer a unique space reminiscent of a bird’s nest and provide the best views of the entire park while you dine; the “Terrace Seats,” where you can enjoy your meal in an open-air atmosphere; and the “Indoor Seats,” where you can relax in a comfortable, climate-controlled environment.
The commitment to quality is evident in the food, all of which is prepared from scratch in-house. From carefully aging the meat to meticulous attention to detail, the dishes are so satisfying that you’ll be surprised they’re served at a theme park.
