One of a Kind! Photo Frame Crafting Workshop
The “Photo Frame Crafting Experience” is one of Kanoa Okinawa’s most popular activities and is available at all locations: the Onna Village Store, the Kokusai-dori Store, and the Ishigaki Island Store. Participation fees start at 3,300 yen, and you get unlimited use of a wide variety of decorative materials, including real seashells and coral! You can also add optional extras like cute shisa figurines and alphabet pieces. With the samples on display in the store to inspire you, you can let your imagination run wild while creating your piece, so even first-timers can feel at ease. The activity takes about 30 to 50 minutes, making it a casual and easy experience to fit into your sightseeing schedule.
Short-Duration Accessory-Making Workshop
Workshops where you can make accessories like earrings, bracelets, and necklaces are also very popular. Prices start at 1,980 yen, making them quite affordable, and since you can finish your piece in a short amount of time (about 60 minutes or less), these workshops are perfect for filling in a little free time. In particular, the “natural stone bracelets”—which couples create with each other in mind—are highly recommended as a memento of your trip. You can take your finished piece home right away, so it’s easy to join in.
We also have a great selection of cute handmade goods!
We sell cute accessories, photo frames, and nautical-themed goods made by our staff. Even if you don’t have time to participate in a workshop, we have plenty of items available for purchase as souvenirs or gifts. We also sell photo frame kits you can assemble at home, so you can enjoy a taste of Okinawa even after you return home.

The Charm of Kanoa Okinawa, as I Experienced It During My Visit
I made a photo frame at the Onna Village store! There were so many materials to choose from—it was fun just picking them out—and I created a design that captures the feeling of the ocean using beautiful seashells and coral♪ The finished product is perfect for displaying photos of my travel memories, and I’m absolutely thrilled with it! The staff provided thoughtful assistance, so I’d definitely recommend it even for first-timers. Also, the Ishigaki Island store has that warm, island-specific atmosphere, and it helped me create wonderful memories of my trip to Okinawa and the Yaeyama Islands.
