Hedo Cape

Hedo Cape marks the northern end of Okinawa Island, where limestone cliffs face both the East China Sea and the Pacific. Waves break against the steep shore, while wind-shaped plants grow above it. Inland, the limestone of Mount Hedo has been worn into karst formations by water. The island of Yoron lies beyond the sea to the north, across the passage separating Okinawa from the Amami group.
