How safe is Yokosuka for solo female travelers?
Family travel
I lived in Japan for four years growing up. It was a very safe place, even for minors on their own. The only possible exception was after dark on the weekends in the street where all the bars were (the strip? I can’t remember what we called it)

Yokosuka is generally safe. I live near the base so there's a lot of US Navy personel doing patrol every now and then. If you need help you can just shout and guarantee people will be there. Been living here for about 6 years now and I love living here.

Yokosuka is a small town. It's accommodating for foreigners. There are two big cities near by (Yokahama and Tokyo). It's also near popular places like Hakone, Odawada, and Kamakura. While there isn't much in the area, it's a very central hub for things.

About me
I was born in Venezuela and shaped by life across several countries, I’ve lived in my home country, the U.S., Peru, and now Japan (Kanagawa). Moving so much has made me deeply curious, adaptable, and always excited to connect with people and cultures. I’m a musician and I play the cello 🎻, an outdoor lover who enjoys hiking, camping, swimming, and a good challenge (I’ve done triathlons and learned to surf). I value meaningful conversations, spontaneity, kindness toward animals, and shared experiences—whether that’s music, food, or stories from life. I love meeting people from different backgrounds and believe every place and person has something to teach.
