Yanbaru is the name given to the forested northern part of Okinawa Island in Japan.
Yanbaru contains some of the last large surviving tracts of subtropical rainforest in Asia, with many endemic species of flora and fauna. In 2016, Yanbaru National Park was established and the area was included in a submission for inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

It is a community cooperative of grocery stores that are operated by the local community.
