About this place
Ikema Bridge links Karimata, at the northern tip of Miyako Island, with Ikema Island across a 1,425 m crossing over shallow emerald water. It opened in 1992 and was Okinawa’s longest bridge until the Kurima Bridge took the title in 1995.
The bridge is toll-free, part of Prefectural Route 230. The mapcode lands at the Ikema Island end, by the shop there; the viewing area is at the opposite, Miyako Island end, so decide which side you want to stop on before you cross.

How to enter this in your car navigation
- On the navigation home screen, choose Destination (目的地).
- Choose Mapcode (マップコード) from the search methods.
- Type the digits, then the asterisk and the last two digits.
- Confirm the map preview shows the right area before you set the route.
Most Japanese rental cars (Toyota, Nissan, Honda, Times, Orix) accept mapcodes. Some older units ignore the *nn suffix. That is fine, because it only refines the pin.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the mapcode for Ikema Bridge?
- The mapcode is 721 615 444*51, pointing at a spot in 沖縄県. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 24.924741, 125.255016. A navigation unit takes the mapcode in far fewer keystrokes than the coordinates, so enter the code.
- What is a mapcode?
- A mapcode is a short numeric code that identifies a spot in Japan, developed by Denso. Japanese car navigation systems accept it directly, which avoids typing a Japanese address on a Japanese keyboard.
- How do I enter a mapcode in a Japanese rental car?
- On the navigation unit choose Destination (目的地), then Mapcode (マップコード), then type the digits. The two digits after the asterisk are an optional precision suffix; older units simply ignore them.
- What do the digits after the asterisk mean?
- They are a high-resolution suffix that narrows the point to roughly a few metres. Without them the code still resolves, just to a slightly wider area.
