Driving in Okinawa

Driving on the Left

Like in the UK, driving in Okinawa is on the left-hand side of the road. This familiar road rule should make your driving experience convenient and comfortable.

Speed Limits

Speed limits in Okinawa are lower compared to the UK. They are generally 40-50 km/h in urban areas, 60-80 km/h on national highways, and a maximum of 80 km/h on expressways. Watch out for signages and adjust your speed accordingly.

Rental Car Recommendations

Renting a compact car is ideal, considering the islands' narrow roads. However, if you plan to venture to the more mountainous terrains, an SUV may be more suitable. Adjust your choice depending on your itinerary.

Must-Visit Destinations

Naha

Naha, the capital city of Okinawa Prefecture, is a must-visit. Be sure to visit the Shuri Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and stroll around Kokusai Dori Street to try local cuisine and shop for souvenirs.

Ishigaki Island

Crystal clear waters and beautiful beaches await you at Ishigaki Island. While you're there, be sure to visit Kabira Bay, which is considered one of the most beautiful views in Japan.

Understanding the Culture

Language

Although Japanese is the official language, many locals speak 'Uchinaguchi' or the Okinawan language. However, English is usually understood at tourist spots and car rental agencies.

Currency

The currency used is the Japanese Yen (¥). Credit cards are widely accepted, but having cash on hand is advisable for smaller establishments.

Climate

The climate in Okinawa is subtropical with high humidity, unlike the temperate UK. Pack lightweight, breathable clothing. Don't forget your beachwear, too!

Final Thoughts

Planning your trip to Okinawa Prefecture and your voyage around the islands will be a cinch with these insights. Rent a car that suits your travel plans, respect the local customs and rules of the road, and you'll certainly have an unforgettable journey!
