This station is the second stop from the Naha airport station heading towards Tedako-Uranishi station connected by the line called 「Yui Rail」（Okinawa Toshi Monorail） that has a total of 19 stations. It is located on a main road which connects Naha with southern areas and has good access to local buses and taxis. It has a panoramic view of the Marine Self Defense Force Naha base since it is an elevated station.
