In Okinawa, depending on the time of year, a flea market is held on a base at some U.S. military base every week.
We have compiled information on flea markets at such U.S. military bases with dates and times!
I think it is one of the most special experiences in Okinawa tourism.
Flea Market Attraction
At the flea market, you can find items used by U.S. military personnel and their families at low prices.
This includes furniture, electronics, children’s clothing, toys, and even vintage American goods and jeans, items that can only be found in the United States.
Although these products are well used, they are of high quality and often unique in design, making them attractive to shoppers.
Points to consider when participating
- Identification: A photo ID such as a driver’s license or passport is required to enter the base.
- Open Gate Events: Once or twice a year, the base opens its gates to the public, and a visit in conjunction with an Open Gate Event is a great way to experience the atmosphere inside the base.
- Act early: Popular items often sell out early, so it is recommended to arrive before the doors open.
- Enjoy negotiating: In many cases, prices can be negotiated, so be willing to try.
Flea Market as a Hole in the Road
For locals and tourists alike, flea markets on U.S. military bases can be one of the highlights of a visit to Okinawa.
This is a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of American life and incorporate it into your own. Check out our next flea market dates in Okinawa for an unforgettable shopping experience!

Now it’s time to go to the flea market!
What you will find at the flea market is a wide variety of American products, unusual goods, clothing, furniture, and more.
Of particular interest are the items that will be exhibited by military personnel and their families prior to their return from the United States! This is also a great place to find unexpected bargains!
A great way to reserve a rental car that locals also use!
important point
- Security on the base is tight. Photo identification is required for entry.
- Photography is generally prohibited. Do not bring cameras.
- Depending on the time of day, it may take some time to enter. Please allow plenty of time for your visit.
