JUNGLIA, Okinawa’s newest theme park (opened July 2025), is located in the Motobu/Nago area of northern Okinawa. The Kumejima Ocean Jet offers a new sea route from Naha to Motobu Port (former Expo area) in approximately 60 minutes in summer and ~69 minutes in winter, bypassing the often-congested Okinawa Expressway. From Motobu Port (former Expo area), JUNGLIA is about 15 minutes by car. This makes KOJ a compelling alternative to the 1.5–2 hour drive from Naha.
