Okinawa Main Island

The bus had comfortable seats with cup holders/hooks and a large luggage rack. The tour guide was great, explaining a basic history of Okinawa. I recommend bringing an umbrella/slippers. Unfortunately, I chose the worst weather day 😂, so the photos don't look great, but it must be beautiful on a sunny day. The price was also cheaper than taking the bus (3700 yen round trip to Naba + 2100 yen entrance fee). Just going to the aquarium alone cost HKD290.

Upon arrival at Okinawa Airport, proceed from the international terminal to the domestic terminal. After exiting through the main entrance on the first floor and crossing the street, you'll find a designated area for rental car shuttle buses. Look for your rental company's sign, confirm your reservation name with the staff, and your bus will arrive in a few minutes. You.I. rental cars have Chinese-speaking staff, so feel free to ask any questions. The car was new; we rented a small car, not very powerful, but still easy to drive. However, the in-car navigation system was a bit unfamiliar (it required entering a mapcode), so we used Google Maps on our phones. The car thoughtfully included a phone holder that attaches to the windshield. Japan drives on the left, so please drive carefully and avoid accidentally entering the oncoming lane when turning. When approaching intersections, you can use the rule "look right first, then left," as cars will come from the right first. Okinawans are generally courteous drivers and don't rush ahead, but be aware that motorcycles may occasionally weave through traffic.

If you're traveling with children, be prepared for cancellations at some attractions. Consider using more expensive options. The Daruma Temple gold-embroidered bag is really cute and worth exchanging; a five-in-one package is usually sufficient for multiple days.

There was plenty of time at each attraction, making it very relaxing. The vehicles were new and had no unpleasant odors.
