The aquarium is located within the Ocean Expo Park, and in addition to the aquarium there are other themed exhibition halls. Outside the aquarium there is a dolphin theater and a pavilion for watching manatees and sea turtles. The aquarium mainly has the Sea of ​​Black Tide and a push to introduce coral tropical fish. more focused on nurturing marine life and education.

A fantastic day trip experience! Very convenient for those without a car; the bus was punctual and comfortable. The Churaumi Aquarium allowed ample time for a thorough visit. The scenery of Cape Manzamo and Kouri Island was stunning. The tour guide communicated fluently in Mandarin and was very attentive throughout the trip. Although it was a business trip with a side trip, it was a very relaxing day and excellent value for money!

The main advantage is convenient transportation, no need to drive, and a shorter itinerary that allows for a more in-depth experience. The only drawback is that parking at the Churaumi Aquarium is quite far; it takes about 20 minutes just to get into the aquarium.

Junglia was the place I was most looking forward to during my trip to Okinawa! Thanks to the typhoon narrowly missing us, we were able to enjoy it much more leisurely and pleasantly than expected. When we arrived, there were hardly any Koreans, so I was a bit flustered and bewildered, but that is when we met Wan-su, an angelic staff member. Starting with her approach to help us when we were initially lost, she meticulously sought us out whenever we were struggling throughout the trip, taking kind care of us from beginning to end. As we were traveling to an unfamiliar place with my child, even the smallest help felt significant. Thanks to Wan-su, we were able to fully enjoy Junglia with peace of mind. It remains such a warm memory that even after the trip ended, my family and I kept talking about how grateful we were to that staff member we met at Junglia. Not only Wan-su, but all the other staff members were incredibly kind. Above all, their bright energy—as if they themselves were enjoying Junglia—was impressive, allowing my family to have a blast along with them. The jungle-themed area was wonderfully designed, making it fun just to walk around. In the hot weather, the mist and water jets spraying from various spots allowed my child to run around and play with great excitement. With the addition of exciting performances, it felt like we had spent a fulfilling day traveling, going beyond simply riding attractions. For our family, Junglia will be remembered for a long time as a precious place where we met not only wonderful facilities but also warm and kind people. I would like to thank Wan-su once again for taking such meticulous care of us until the very end in this unfamiliar environment, and for all the kind staff members. Thanks to you, we had an unforgettable and happy day in Okinawa!🩷

If you're looking for a handsome, funny, and charismatic Mandarin-speaking tour guide who can make the whole bus laugh, then Xiao Guo is the one for you! 😂 He's also great at scheduling breaks, which is a huge plus! I had a really good impression of our tour guide this time. At each attraction, he clearly explained the meeting time and pick-up point, and always reminded us of the bus number, ensuring everyone was back on time (and he even gave us a thoughtful 5-minute buffer time ❤️, which was totally acceptable to me). Here are my personal reflections after visiting each attraction: 🪨 Manzamo: The area isn't very large; 30 minutes is more than enough for me to walk around and take photos. If there are a lot of people taking photos, I suggest not waiting in line at the same spot. Try taking photos from different angles and use the time to visit the restrooms or shops; it's more efficient. 🌊 Kouri Island I only spent 25 minutes at this stop, yet I managed to take all the ocean views and browse the local specialties three times! 🤣 Maybe it's because I didn't buy any shrimp rice. This stop is allotted 50 minutes. If you're traveling with elderly people or slower travelers, you might need to manage your time better. If you plan to buy souvenirs or eat shrimp rice, it's recommended to plan ahead to avoid running out of time when you arrive. 🐋 Churaumi Aquarium This stop is truly huge and spectacular! The whale sharks are definitely worth seeing! Three hours sounds like a long time, but it actually flies by. I suggest planning your itinerary beforehand, deciding what you want to see, buy, and eat. Otherwise, when you need to get back to the meeting point, there's a considerable distance from inside the aquarium to the parking lot (about 10 minutes? Maybe my legs are short 😂), and you might end up rushing, breathless and sweating profusely by the time you get on the bus. Especially if you're traveling with elders or children, I highly recommend planning ahead, otherwise you might feel rushed at the end. 🏠 American Village This stop only has 1 hour, which I think is suitable for a quick stroll, shopping, and buying some snacks. If you really enjoy American Village and want to explore at a leisurely pace, 1 hour might not be enough. I personally arranged to get off at this stop for a "work exchange," allowing me to explore at my own pace without constantly checking the time, which better suited my travel rhythm. Overall, what I found most enjoyable about this trip was that the tour guide clearly explained the meeting information and maintained a good pace. Also, Xiao Guo was great at creating a lively atmosphere, ensuring there were never any dull moments on the bus, adding a lot of laughter to the entire journey. These are my reflections after completing this solo trip, offered as a reference for those planning a day trip to northern Okinawa.

Besides the beautiful beach, we went to American Village for brunch. The environment and food were top-notch. Finally, we went to DMM. We had a great time!

The car is clean and tidy, and the driver is punctual and friendly, making it the best choice for traveling with elders and children!

A great option for those not driving themselves. The itinerary was well-planned, guided by Mr. Zhu, with clear explanations. The scenery was beautiful, the weather was fantastic, and it was a very enjoyable experience.
