2025 Okinawa Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

Every time I visit Okinawa, I make sure to stop by this izakaya. This time, one meal wasn't enough, so I planned for two. Upon landing, I headed straight to Ikesu no Ginji (Shintoshin branch), a place I visited last time. Unfortunately, my favorite sea urchin rice ball was replaced with a new version—sad. For the second meal, I decided to check out Mekiki no Ginji (Shintoshin branch), which has a Studio Ghibli vibe (P1). However, when I arrived at 5:40 PM, the daily specials of fresh shrimp sashimi and grilled prawns were already sold out! Key Highlights: 1️⃣ Always try the daily specials. Although the fresh shrimp was sold out, the daily oysters (P3) at JPY 400 each were incredibly fresh and sweet—a must-try. 2️⃣ My personal favorite and obsession is the sea urchin rice ball with raw egg dipping sauce (P2)—you'll miss it once you've tried it. 3️⃣ A general recommendation is the sea urchin sauce grilled oysters on a hot plate (P4). 4️⃣ Reservations are absolutely necessary. I usually ask the hotel I'm staying at to make the reservation, specifying the date, time, number of people, and even the end time. 5️⃣ For the best photo opportunity at the Studio Ghibli-style entrance, aim for around 6:30 PM. The lighting is perfect—just as the sky starts to darken but hasn't fully turned night, and the lights are beautifully lit.

Okinawa Grand Mer Resort is a resort hotel located in Uruma City on the main island of Okinawa. Located in the middle of Okinawa's main island, it is convenient as a base for sightseeing to the four islands of Uruma City (Hamahiga Island, Henza Island, Miyagi Island, and Ikei Island) located to the north, south, or east. Located on a hill in a residential area, the hotel offers a panoramic view of the city from the veranda of each guest room. It is a typical resort hotel with an indoor pool, fitness gym, bar lounge, etc., but it gives the impression of being more for business use. It was often used by groups such as school trip students. The guest rooms are very simple, The sofa bed was comfortable and easy to spend time in. For dinner, we ordered the Okinawa Kaiseki option. We ate our fill of delicious local cuisine. There was a buffet in the morning, but the number of dishes was small and the quality was honestly questionable. But it wasn't bad to be able to try a little bit of the Okinawan menu. There were hardly any restaurants or convenience stores in the area. Therefore, a free shuttle bus was operated to the nearby Aeon Mall (advance reservation required). However, if you have a rental car, you can enjoy sightseeing hopping around the four islands of Uruma City (Hamahiga Island, Henza Island, Miyagi Island, Ikei Island). #AccommodationTravelRecord #OkinawaPrefecture #UrumaCity #Hotel

Let's drive around Okinawa. This trip, we rented a car to drive around Okinawa Island. We drove up to the northernmost point of the island, Cape Kamui. The view is beautiful, the sea is clear, and the wind is cool. This trip, we traveled for 5 days and 4 nights. We rented a car to drive everywhere. It was fun everywhere. In Japan, driving is not more than 50 km/h. The view on both sides of the road is beautiful. We drove and stopped to take pictures. It was fun. I recommend anyone who comes to Okinawa to drive around at least once. #Rent a car to travel
