Travel guide to Okinawa, Japan, attractions, hotels and food are all here
Okinawa is in the peak tourist season from July to November, and the most suitable tourist season is from April to May. Transportation mainly consists of chartered cars, light rail, buses and taxis. It is recommended to use Google Maps for navigation. Light rail and walking are preferred for trips within 2 kilometers, followed by walking the entire journey.Taxis in Okinawa are much more cost-effective than those in Tokyo (starting at 600 yen, estimated to be 100 yen per kilometer). The most affordable place for seafood sashimi is the Makishi Commune Market. After the flight arrives in the morning, it is recommended to go to the far right of the 4th floor of the departure hall to watch the planes take off and land while eating pork and egg rice balls. Check the luggage weight at the check-in counter of the low-cost airline on the return trip and buy luggage in advance. Take the light rail from the airport to Miebashi Station for 7 stations and walk 500 meters to Kokusai-dori. The Okinawa light rail uses Suica cards. All famous hotels in Okinawa are booked by phone on Google Maps in advance. Ryukyu beef should be booked on the official website at least 1 month ago.
