Please help me plan a 6 day trip for okinawa (mid october)!


My GF and I are going on a 20 day trip (3-23. oct) and while it was very easy to look up highlights for osaka, kyoto and tokyo it is really difficult to get a itinerary for okinawa… These are the things I have gathered so far (which we would like to do):

  • diving (kerama islands perhaps? if possible with photo shoots)
  • kayaking (preferrably a spot that is not too far away and showcases an interesting landscape?)
  • beaching (any nice beach will do)
  • Churaumi aquarium
  • ??? (anything that is interesting for nerds/gamers, sport/competive people or drone enthusiasts? Or just some town shopping if there is any interesting town around)

That's it. Since it is too late to get my driver licencse translated (needs up to 6 weeks) we will be completely left at the mercy of public transport sooo – it would be cool to kind of have all the highlights relatively near to each other but as far as I can see churaumi aquarium and kerama island alone are quite the distance.

What can I do to make this trip as pain free as possible? I read of hiphop busses somewhere – are they worth it perhaps? And do you think it's best to start with a hotel near churaumi aquarium and then move on to another hotel near Naha?? Or start in ishigaki and travel from island to island towards east until reaching churaumi aquarium on the main island? (need to be back at naha airport for the flight back though)

Man, I'm so lost – also it's my first trip outside of europe ever. Pleaase help me
