The Okinawa Ocean Museum is really worth visiting and is great for families. The aquarium inside is beautiful, especially the huge tank. Watching the whale sharks and rays swim leisurely by is really soothing 😍 The whole park is also very pleasant, with beautiful ocean views. It’s perfect for taking your time walking around and taking photos. There’s also a dolphin show to watch.

Michi-no-Eki Itoman
One of Okinawa’s largest roadside stations sits along National Route 331, about a 20-minute drive from Naha Airport. The entire property sings with the fishing town character of Itoman, complete with a jaw-dropping variety of succulently fresh seafood, local fruits and vegetables, and regional specialties.
You definitely have to include Itoman Fishing Port in your Okinawa itinerary! The sashimi and grilled lobster are both cheap and fresh. The dining area was packed, and the atmosphere was super lively. You can eat what you buy right there, and the fresh, sweet seafood is pure bliss.

Naha Kokusai-dori Shopping Street
Naha City Kokusai-dori Shopping Street is located in the center of Naha City and is the main street representing Okinawa. It is the largest downtown area in Naha City and is famous as the center of commerce and entertainment. It is known as "Kokusai-dori (International street)," based on the concept of "a people-friendly town and a town that is fun to walk through.
The whole street is very lively, with lots of souvenir shops, restaurants, and snack stalls on both sides. You can find almost anything you want to buy. Besides Kokusai-dori itself, you can also explore the side streets, where you'll find quite a few unique little shops. The atmosphere is even livelier at night.

Kouri Ohashi Bridge
The Kouri Bridge, inaugurated in 2005, is a remote island bridge spanning 1,960 meters, connecting Yagaji Island in Nago City and Kouri Island. As the second-longest bridge in Okinawa that can be crossed for free, it is renowned for the breathtaking view of the emerald-green sea stretching on both sides. This makes it not only a popular drive route but also a highly sought-after scenic spot.
Kouri Ohashi Bridge is truly beautiful, with endless blue ocean views on both sides. When the weather is good, the water is incredibly clear. After arriving on Kouri Island, you can also stop by the beach for a walk, wade in the water, and enjoy Okinawa's laid-back atmosphere.
