Arrival Recommendation
- We recommend arriving at least one day before the wedding to allow time to settle in and enjoy the island at a relaxed pace.
Getting Around
- Once in Okinawa, most guests choose to rent a car or take taxis, depending on their itinerary.
Taxis are readily available from the airport taxi stand.
If possible, we recommend renting a car for the most flexible (and scenic!) Okinawa experience.
Please note that Okinawa is different from cities like Tokyo or Osaka — public transport is more limited.
