Lots of different crafts available
Create your own shisa (lion-dogs), colorful candle or painted glass as a memento of Okinawa. Take it home the same day! Great as a rainy day activity too.

A fun activity for both kids and adults, the staff will show you the ropes of these cute crafts. Make your own one-of-a-kind souvenir of Okinawa!
