Okinawa American Village 🎡

This route takes you around Okinawa, in addition to sunshine and beaches, this route is designed for those of you who want to delve into the multicultural and natural beauty of the islands! Highlights of my trip include: the globally renowned Okinawa Mermaid Aquarium, the fantastic underground world of Yuzumi-dong, the American Village with shopping and food, and of course the healing stay at the popular offshore Koguri Island and the Hilton Laidi Resort. If you are visiting Okinawa for the first time, or have been there several times and want to discover new surprises, you are sure to find your favorite place! 📍Must-see attraction recommendations: 1. Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium A world-class large aquarium, a must-count Black Tide giant aquarium, groups of ghost manta rays and whale sharks swim up close, great for photography! The venue is comfortable and has sea turtle and dolphin displays. It is recommended to avoid the holiday morning and afternoon rush hours and feel the fantastic underwater world. Address: 424 Ishikawa, Motobu-cho, Kuni-gun, Okinawa Opening hours: 08:30-18:30 (last entry 17:30) 2. Gyokusendo Cave Not only a natural wonder, this underground stalactite cave is longer than expected (more than 5 kilometers has been opened range of about 0.9 kilometers), the lighting and humid atmosphere walking in has a cinematic feel - remember to bring a thin jacket, the cave is cool! Address: 1336 Maekawa, Tamaki, Minami-shi, Okinawa Prefecture Opening hours: 09:00 - 17:30 3. American Village It is recommended to walk around the seaside at sunset, then shop and play restaurants. There are many Okinawa specialty cafes, a little American style, and the lights are super atmospheric at night, suitable for couples and girlfriends to take photos. Address: Mibin, Kitani-cho, Nakato-gun, Okinawa Suggested transportation: Rent a car/take bus 25, 28 4. Kouri Island A must-go by car! Go to the island via the Kouri Bridge, the sea and sky are picturesque, the beach is clear - you can daze on the beach, play snorkeling, and try the island coffee shop, and the main attractions are not crowded, relaxing and slow life. Address: Guyuri, present-day Kihito Village, Kunito-gun, Okinawa Prefecture 5. Hilton Okinawa Chatan Resort Comfortable accommodation experience, super complete swimming pool facilities, across the street is the American Village, after strolling back to the hotel in the evening to enjoy the super relaxing view. Professional service, rich variety of breakfast Buffet. Practical tips/real insights During my travels, I feel that Okinawa transportation is most convenient by driving, so I can flexibly respond to emergencies or temporary trips. If you don't know how to drive yourself, the bus can basically reach the attraction, but you have to calculate the frequency and shuttle time. Most photo hotspots are full of Japanese and Korean tourists, but as long as you stick to getting up early or going at dusk, you can basically avoid the peak crowds. On the Yuquan Cave side if you do not want to walk too much, you can choose to visit only the main area of ​​the cave; American Village dinner walk over to shop, eat ramen, buy souvenirs is very convenient. 🍴 Nearby food recommendations - Near the aquarium: Try the seafood bowl specialist "Ocean Canteen" - American Village: Must-eat BLUE SEAL ice cream, specialty Burger in Depot Island, "A&W" civilian American fast food - Guyuli Island: There are handmade burger shops on the island that are very popular 🚗 Transportation guide It is recommended to rent a car directly at the airport and drive yourself, and book a pick-up online in advance to save time after disembarkation. If you use trip.com to check the time by bus, some remote attractions only have a few flights a day, so be sure to pay attention to the return trip. #OkinawaDayTrip #DeepTravel #FamilyGoods #OkinawaFood #CarrentalTourOkinawa
