Enjoy the sun and surf on beautiful beaches in central and southern Okinawa
No trip to Okinawa is complete without doing a little beach hopping! Stroll along the shore, cool down in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy a little fun in the sun alongside some truly spectacular scenery. Many of the beaches in the central and southern parts of Okinawa’s main and outlying islands are swimming beaches with amenities for visitors, and some are open year-round.
