Okinawa Prefecture
Okinawa, Japan’s southern island paradise, is famed for its turquoise seas, subtropical climate, and rich Ryukyu heritage. Beyond its stunning beaches, the main island offers world-class diving, vibrant coral reefs, and historic sites like Shuri Castle and the Nakijin and Nakagusuku Castle Ruins. Visitors can explore traditional villages, lush forests, and unique cultural experiences year-round. Okinawa’s food scene is equally captivating, featuring local specialties such as Okinawa Soba and slow-braised Rafutee. With its blend of natural beauty, history, and warm island hospitality, Okinawa promises an unforgettable journey in every season.

The staff is very friendly, and the explanation is very detailed. Although their English is limited, they use gestures and break down the actions into steps, making it easy to understand. After paddling through the mangroves, I learned some stories and about the mangrove ecosystem. It's worth including in your Okinawa itinerary.

The activity location is very convenient and easily accessible. It was easy for me to get to the meeting point by bus on my own 📍This was my first time kayaking in Okinawa, and I had a great time seeing the beautiful Okinawan sunset 🧡 The instructor, Miku, was kind and friendly, and the entire route was smooth and safe 👍 She also helped take a lot of photos, which I really appreciate 💕 I recommend this to anyone visiting Okinawa! 👍

Take bus number 120 from Naha. The instructors are very professional. The entire trip is by kayak and lasts about 1 hour. The scenery is beautiful, but be aware that you will definitely get wet, so bring a change of clothes. This activity is highly recommended.

Wonderful experience, it had been raining and was cloudy. We were provided with rain ponchos. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and shared about the area and environment. We saw birds and hermit crabs. Guide was great with answering g our questions. Recommend this experience with this organization.

This kayak tour was a decision made after considering many options. Our guide, Ray, was very kind and supported us as much as possible so that we could enjoy the tour. Even though the weather wasn't helping us, we had so much fun on what could have been a monotonous tour thanks to Ray's kind and detailed explanations and photo taking. Thank you so much, it was a fun memory. If I have the opportunity, let's meet again someday, Ray! 🔥🔥🔥

It's within walking distance of Kokusai Street in Naha, but not so close that the surroundings are noisy, and it's well-maintained. The facilities are well-organized, the view is great, and it's a good space for simple meals indoors. There is a lounge area on the 2nd floor, as well as coin laundry and a water purifier.

I stayed here on my last day after returning the rental car. It's not big, but it has everything you need, and the monorail access is great. There was a small event prepared by the hotel every day, and when I stayed there, there was a traditional costume experience, so the kids wore them and took pictures. It was mid-January, so I couldn't use the outdoor swimming pool, but it was nice to be able to use the small outdoor hot spring. There are also Korean staff, so there are no problems with communication. Oh... this hotel's happy hour is amazing. There's beer, sake, and snake wine, so I bought food at the nearby MaxValu in the evening and had a meal. They also give out free ramen from around 8pm. Honestly, the taste isn't that great, but I needed soup, so it was good. However, the weekly parking fee is expensive, and since it's downtown, the road conditions are complicated, so you should think about it if you have a car. (Parking is also a mechanical tower parking lot.) Anyway, it's a hotel with more advantages than disadvantages in many ways.
