New Year at Hyakuna Garan

We have now entered kan, the coldest time of the year, and winter is deepening. We hope this finds you well.

New Year’s Day at Hyakuna Garan dawned under clear winter skies, and we were able to welcome a calm and peaceful New Year together with our guests.

At this time of year the sun rises in Okinawa at about 7.15, and many guests went out to neighbouring Mibaru Beach to see the first sunrise of the year.

In the daytime the temperature climbed to 21°C, and we saw plenty of people strolling around the neighbourhood in short sleeves.

We sincerely wish you good health and every happiness, that you may stay well through the winter, and that we may see your smiling faces again soon.

With warmest wishes for the year ahead.
