Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium
Located in the large Ocean Expo Park, about 90 kilometers away from Naha, Churaumi Aquarium is one of the largest aquariums in the world. Although they have a huge variety of sea life, they are most famous for their giant whale sharks and manta rays who are housed the massive Kuroshio Tank. Constantly ranked as one of the must-visit spots on Okinawa Island, this aquarium will fascinate adults and kids alike. As getting there by public transportation can be tough, we recommend booking a tour!
Ryukyu Mura (Ryukyu Village)
This walkable theme park recreates a traditional Okinawan village, with cultural performances and workshops for visitors. Make sure to check out the habu snake and mongoose show to learn more about these animals, and then watch eisa dance and drum performances. Keep an eye out for the reenactments of Ryukyu historical ceremonies too!
War Memorials
During World War 2, Okinawa became the site of some of most terrible battles in Japan and is commemorated in memorials across the island. Former Japanese Navy Underground Headquarters, Okinawa Peace Memorial and the Himeyuri Monument give a sobering overview of the battles and the reconstruction of Okinawa. Learn more about this modern history of this now peaceful island and explore the southern tip of the main island.
