Pemuchi Beach

ぺムチ浜

Okinawa

A wild, undeveloped white-sand beach on Hateruma's south coast, fringed with flat coral-limestone slabs and turquoise water — no facilities, no lifeguard, strong currents.

Why it's hidden

A signless local beach on Japan's southernmost inhabited island, reached only by bicycle down a dirt track.
