About this place
Tamatorizaki Observatory is a hilltop lookout on the east coast of northern Ishigaki, in the Ibaruma area. It looks over a curving bay of reef and blue water towards the Hirakubo Peninsula and Mount Hanna.
It is about 20 minutes north of New Ishigaki Airport on the main road, so it fits easily on the way to Cape Hirakubo. The mapcode points at the lookout itself; the free car park, with toilets, is below it, and a paved path lined with hibiscus takes about ten minutes to walk up.

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 Tamatorizaki Observatory?
- The mapcode is 366 558 319*44, pointing at a spot in 沖縄県. Written as decimal degrees the same point is 24.490540, 124.278909. 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.
