Turn the clip into a workable plan
Best for
Visitors with a rental car who want the northern coast rather than Naha city.
A sensible route
- Accept that this is a driving day: public transport between northern sights is limited.
- Order the stops geographically along the coast so you are not doubling back.
- Start early — the drive up from Naha is long enough to consume a late start.
- Leave the last stop optional so a slow lunch or traffic does not force a rushed drive back.
