Okinawa Main Island

The park is well planned, the stalactite cave trails are friendly and suitable for the elderly

I went there on the weekend and didn't buy a pass or a ticket. I arrived at noon and there weren't many people. I queued for three games, all within 60 minutes. They were all fun, especially pushing the buggy! If you want to play the games, you can buy a pass to ensure you can play them. We didn't mind and were mentally prepared to queue, so we didn't buy one. The food in the park was delicious, the snacks on the dining car were good, and the shops were nice too. The park was not as big as I expected. I played until 7 o'clock when the park closed and I took the shuttle bus to the spa for a soak and rest. My family of five, no children, but some elderly, had a good experience. However, the park is basically outdoors and it can be very sunny, so you really need to pay attention to the weather and the month before going. There are parasols to rent inside, as well as chairs with open parasols. The cooling station has air conditioning, sofas, and candies. There are also water stations on the roadside so you can take a break if you're tired of walking around and queuing. Remember to drink water.

I think DMM and Churaumi Aquarium have distinct characteristics, but both are worth visiting. DMM's location makes it a good option to schedule a visit to Senagajima on the same day as the two, as they're very close together and you can even visit the nearby shopping mall. While DMM isn't as large as Churaumi, if you're not planning a trip to northern Taiwan but still want to see some underwater life, it's a worthwhile visit. I was particularly impressed by seeing sloths, pufferfish, and chameleons up close, and being able to touch starfish and sea urchins. Some feeding experiences require an additional fee, but children will definitely enjoy it!

The scenery is beautiful, but the sun is strong. I recommend wearing a knitted hat. The wind is also very strong. Although the Shuri Castle Main Hall is still under construction, it is expected to be completed in March 2026.
