Okinawa Free Travel Guide 2017

The most detailed version of the 2017 Okinawa Free Travel Guide has been released. You can see the atmosphere of the ancient Ryukyu civilization and modern Japanese culture on Okinawa. This is definitely an alternative experience and With this in mind, I would like to share with you the latest version of the 2017 Okinawa Free Travel Guide.

It may be different from the regular guide to Okinawa. Most of the places in this article were accidentally encountered by us. There was no plan and everything was left to chance.

1. Air and wine:

Air and wine is a free travel package booked two weeks in advance on Ctrip. The cost is 6,000 RMB per person for two people, including round-trip air tickets (non-red-eye) + 10,000 yuan to the beach. Zamo Ana ANA Intercontinental x2 nights + Naha city center hotel x2 nights. As far as May Day is concerned, this price is considered reasonable.

The Manzamo Intercontinental may be the most prestigious hotel in Okinawa. Although it is a bit old, it is well maintained. The clean blue and white color scheme is exactly the same as in the movie "Love in Okinawa". I used my InterContinental membership card to upgrade to a superior sea view room with a better view. The double balcony design is very transparent and has a lot of space. In fact, Wanzuo Mao InterContinental has a large area of ????the sea all to itself, and rooms on the third floor and above are basically sea view rooms regardless of their orientation.

The hotel is super large, with a beautiful white church, a beach, a reef shoreline, and a small Fisherman's Wharf, where you can see every step you take, making it suitable for people who like to wander aimlessly.

Because the front and side of the bed are two large balconies facing the sea, it was amazing to lie on the bed and watch the sunrise before 6 o'clock.

ana Intercontinental has many sea projects. Because I was afraid of the sun, I randomly participated in an activity of going out to sea to watch the sunset, which cost 4,000 yen per person. Unexpectedly, Midea is so beautiful, highly recommended~

The hotel has its own pier.

The most comfortable thing is to sit on the deck and chase the sunset while blowing the sea breeze.

Every time you take a photo, it’s super beautiful.

Watching the sunset on a yacht in Okinawa

Pocari Girls are a perennial topic on Instagram. They were given a can of drinks on a yacht watching the sunset in Okinawa, so they became very playful. Took a set.

A refreshing sea, a white boat, and a can of blue Pocari can be said to be very refreshing.

Every person on the yacht will be given a can of drink, beer or soft drink, which is very considerate.

2. Itinerary and transportation (for practical information, knock on the blackboard!):

Okinawa is a long island, and the must-see attractions are mainly distributed at the north and south ends of the island. It is more natural, and the south is more cultural. The public transportation on the island is very inconvenient, so if you want to experience a more complete Okinawa, it will be very troublesome to drive without driving by yourself. However, this is also the original intention of writing this travel note. I would like to recommend it to those who do not drive by themselves. This is a simple way for little sweet potatoes to enjoy Okinawa.

The map above marks the airport, two hotels, and most of the places I want to go. All itineraries and transportation methods are also based on the distance between these points:

Day 1

Arrived in Okinawa at 8 pm, then departed from (A) Naha Charter a car from the airport to (B) Manzamo Ana ANA Intercontinental. I booked the airport pick-up service on Taobao one day in advance. The one-way trip takes about 1 hour and costs 600 RMB

The next day

The main activities are at the hotel and Manzamo activities near the hotel. The hotel is very large and is easily accessible within a short distance. If it is further afield, there is a very convenient shuttle

bus in the hotel. It takes 15 minutes to walk from the hotel to Manzamo and 5 minutes to take a taxi.

On the third day

I chartered a car for one day, and the charter fee was 1,050 RMB. After checking out in the morning, put your luggage in the car directly, and then go from (B) Intercontinental Hotel - (C) Beautiful Aquarium - (D) Kouri Island - (E) American Village - —(F) Naha city hotel. Not only did we easily visit the main attractions in the north, but we also completed the transition from Okinawa to Naha hotels. Although there are buses near the hotel that can reach Naha city, there are few buses and they are not point-to-point. Not only is it very hard to catch the bus, but it may also waste most of the day. If you want free time, you can only take a taxi across the entire Okinawa island from north to south. The total cost for the whole day is estimated to be 2,00.

The fourth day

The main activities are in Naha city, (G) Kokusai Street, (I) Namamigu Shrine, (J) Tomari Port Seafood Market, these are It's a 10-minute walk or taxi ride from the hotel. In fact, Naha is really small. As long as you live near Kokusai Street, it is very convenient to go anywhere.

Day 5

On the last day, I went shopping on (G) Kokusai Street and (H) Ukishima Street, and then took a taxi to (A) for about 20 minutes

Return to Naha Airport. If International Street is a bit like the City God’s Temple in Shanghai, then Fudao Street is like Changle Road. We accidentally turned onto this small road and found a bunch of trendy brand stores. For example, every time I go to Japan, I always want to buy a few pieces of Rei Kawakubo's PLAY series. I couldn't buy them in Tokyo, but I only bought them in Sapporo. Sweaters, but I never expected that I can buy them all in Okinawa. T-shirts, shirts, polo shirts, both classic and new styles are all available, which is quite touching.

3. Some places on the itinerary

Manzamo:

A must-visit attraction in Okinawa, but it’s really boring, but if you like " It doesn’t matter, it’s love”, or if you like taking pictures, you can still go and the pictures will be super fresh

Manzamao no Meow.

The angle is almost exactly the same as the stills. It took a long time to pose for this photo, haha.

Beautiful aquarium:

An aquarium by the sea sounds very beautiful, doesn’t it?

The outdoor part of the aquarium is also very refreshing, you must go!

Tomari Port Seafood Market:

Generally everyone will go to Daiichi Mushi Commune There are many seafood markets in the market, but we prefer places with more annoying places, so we chose this relatively unpopular seafood market. As expected, there are not many people. I heard that it is usually visited by locals, so the price is much cheaper than the popular one.

Not to mention regular sashimi, it’s dirt cheap. What I recommend the most to eat in the whole market is the grilled lobster above, which is so pale that you only know how good it is after eating it.

After eating and drinking, I bought some fruit at the fruit shop in front of the seafood market. I was going to wander back to digest it, but I found a beautiful port next to it, and there were colorful containers. Okinawa is really amazing. Very good for taking pictures.

I didn’t expect the ramble to be so long. I can’t write it today. I’ll continue tomorrow.
