Okinawa is a picturesque tropical paradise located in the southernmost region of Japan. Known for its unique blend of Japanese and Ryukyuan cultures, Okinawa offers a vibrant array of experiences for the discerning traveler, ranging from watersports and beach outings at the string of stunning coral-fringed islands, also known as Ryukyu Islands, to historical sites, such as Shuri Castle, which present a glimpse of the ancient Ryukyu Kingdom. The region is famous for its rich ocean life, offering unique opportunities for scuba divers and snorkeling enthusiasts, while the residents enjoy longevity- an attribute to the island's healthy diet. The exquisite Okinawan cuisine, infused with local ingredients and a distinct fusion of flavors, combined with the soothing traditional Ryukuan music and dance, enhance the charm of this alluring Japanese archipelago.

Super safe place for solo travel
If you love ocean 

Recommend ridding scooter across the island to enjoy the sea view alone the way.

The northern part of the island has more nature scenery,however there’s no public transportation.

Definitely will want to visit again

Okinawa is an island and has beautiful natural views. The food is not expensive. There is a huge aquarium and Solutional cave. I have stayed there for 4 days. i suggest you can stay longer. The American Village is recommended.
