Gyokusendo Cave is a masterpiece of nature, inspiring awe at the incredible power of the natural world. The park offers performances and various paid activities. Restaurant options are limited, but it's definitely worth spending half a day here for first-time visitors to Okinawa.
After visiting the DMM Kariyushi Aquarium in Okinawa, it was super amazing, especially when you can interact with the animals up close and feed them with your own hands. The plus point is that it is not only ordinary aquarium, but also many land animals, see and can be touched at once, really healing ~ All the animals are very cute, but there are some special recommendations and not recommended places: 🌟 Must try recommendation 🐾 Tree sloth (first choice!) is definitely the most healing! They move slowly, and the whole person (tree?😂) exudes a "Buddhist" aura. When feeding, you can see him slowly reaching for food at a very close distance, his movements are super gentle, it seems completely non-aggressive, looking at it has been very relaxing, you will really not know how to watch for a long time. 🦦 Otter (Must See!) Otters are so cute! It is also very active and will swim around non-stop to get your attention. When feeding, they will catch the food with their hands, then eat in small bites, and look at you, as if the interaction is very strong, really will give them "electricity" 🥹🐧 Penguin (must go!) Penguin walking is funny enough, plus close feeding is more healing. They will line up one by one to wait for food, and some will even fight for food. It's so dramatic! Seeing their stunned looks and little movements up close, you can't help but take a lot of photos. ⚠️ Not recommended 🐖 Mini pet pig Although theoretically quite cute, but the actual experience is average. The biggest problem is that the environment is not well managed, the smell is heavier inside, and the overall feeling is a bit confusing, so in comparison it is not worth feeding specifically. ✅ Summary If you love animals and want an interactive experience, DMM Kariyushi Aquarium is really worth it! 👉 Highlights must try: tree sloth + otter + penguin 👉 Limited time can skip: pet pig area Overall a very healing, good for photography and relaxing place, especially close contact with animals this point, really few other aquariums!
The itinerary was comprehensive and well-planned, the tour bus was comfortable, the tour guide was enthusiastic and provided detailed explanations, and the tour bus driver was friendly.
This five-in-one trip included DMM, Churaumi Aquarium, Kouri Tower, Ryukyu Kingdom, and a meal at Yakiniku Doraku. We had a great time eating and sightseeing, and highly recommend it – a must-do in Okinawa!
