Overview

• The dinosaur-themed park opened on July 25 across 60 hectares of a former golf course in Nakijin Village, selling out all July tickets, filling 1,126 on-site parking spaces and booking some August dates.
• Backed by a ¥70 billion investment led by ex-USJ executive Takeshi Morooka, Junglia Okinawa features 22 attractions and spa facilities designed for stays of around six hours.
• Local businesses hold roughly 70% of the operating company’s shareholders, marking a shift toward retaining tourism profits within northern Okinawa.
• A dual-pricing scheme sets one-day tickets at ¥6,930 for domestic visitors and ¥8,800 for overseas guests to support revenues from Asia’s two-billion-person catchment.
• The park aims to broaden northern Okinawa’s appeal beyond the Churaumi Aquarium by targeting major Asian cities within a four-hour flight radius.
