Okinawa is surprisingly large

The distance from Naha to the Churaumi Aquarium is roughly the same as the distance from Asakusa to Hakone.Okinawa does not have a railway, so transportation is mainly by public bus, taxi, rental car, or other vehicle.

The traffic is terrible

Traffic congestion is a constant social problem in Okinawa, especially during the morning and evening rush hours and when accidents occur.

The road is slippery

Okinawa’s asphalt is made from uplifted coral reef limestone, so the road surface can be slippery when it gets wet due to rain or other reasons.
