Impressive aquarium and glad we put that in our itinerary . We went early to avoid the crowd , tourist buses started to come by around 10 am We also encountered a group of students on excursion so the place got crowded quickly . If you are not in a hurry (we are not) , just slowly stroll through the crowd and appreciate the different species of sea life on display. Fav window is of course the Whale Sharks & Giant Mantra Rays .. mesmerizing to see the giants swimming around We greatly enjoyed the place , time well spent P/S : If you intend to visit the Tropical Dream Center , keep the aquarium ticket . You get half price for the Tropical Dream Center entrance ticket

The Former Japanese Navy Underground Headquaters is located where Rear Admiral Ota and his men desperately fought to the end on 13 June,1945. You can view the commanding officer's room and the operations room as it was during the battle.Also the tunnnels,which were comstracted utilizing hoes and picks,still exist in their original condition.

I loved the layout of the gardens and all the cute animals along the way. Bring plenty of ¥100 coins to buy the cups of food to feed the animals. Great afternoon activity!

This zoo is really nice. Quite Big and we had a good time, especially my 4yrs old daughter. She loves it so much as she can actually touch and pet animals. The train ride was also awesome;)

This would be an interesting rest point/toilet break if you are driving up Route 58 towards Nakijin Castle or Churaumi Aquarium or on your return trip. It is open from 08:30 to 19:00 and parking is free. Lunch available includes garlic steak on hotplate and Okinawa taco rice. There are also may stalls selling interesting Okinawa snacks/delicacies/ice-cream which you should try. There is also a supermarket where you can shop for souvenirs and local products and also a counter inside where you can buy discounted tickets for places of interest (eg. Adult ticket for Aquarium at 1,600 yen instead of 1,850 and Nakijin Castle Remains at 320 yen instead of 400). These tickets allow you direct entry at these places and can be used on any day within the validity period.

It is well worth your time to visit Shuri castle again even if you have visited before on previous trips. I travel to Okinawa annually and fins something new at the castle complex each year. This year a new pathway through the Japanese portion of the casle takes you outside onto the castle wall back of the main building for a large panoramic view of the city. There is also new history an area will be planted in chrysanthemums as was in the past. There are new exhibits and performances and you should check on the events calendar because there are night visitation of the area lite in candle light.

We had theee generations in our group and found this to be a super great activity. If you are already in Oona - just buy the ticket, drive up, take a shuttle (15min wait tops) or take a 10min walk from the entrance to the observatory tower - voila, you are out at the sea and have the privilege to walk down a spiral stairs 4meter underwater. Think submarine with circular windows. What’s amazing is the clean seas and healthy eco system in the seas (fish and more fishes!). When we were there the Glass Boat was closed due to the less than calm seas but the tower was well worth the visit
