Taketomi Island, Yaeyama

八重山諸島 竹富島

A small coral island in the Yaeyama archipelago known for its traditional Ryukyu red-tile roofed houses, white sand paths, and crystal-clear waters. The island's idyllic rural atmosphere inspired elements of Non Non Biyori's Vacation OVA.

📺 Scene from the Anime

The Vacation OVA depicts the girls visiting an Okinawan island with water buffalo carts, star-sand beaches, and traditional houses matching Taketomi's distinctive landscape. Renge's wonder at the tropical scenery captures the island's charm.
