Okinawa offers you experiences from the sky to the sea.

Day 1
After arriving at Naha Airport in Okinawa, we quickly connected with the car rental company booked through Trip.com. It took only about 10 minutes from arrival to getting the car. First, we went to Parco City to do some shopping and pick up some daily necessities. Parco City has many brands familiar to Hong Kong people, such as UNIQLO, MUJI, Global Work, Second Street, and a large supermarket, among others.

Then we arrived at the hostel in American Village, which was also booked through Trip.com. I must praise Trip.com for its ability to arrange all travel needs in one app.

Day 2
We participated in a powered paragliding experience booked through Trip.com. The staff were very considerate, regularly updating us with necessary information via WhatsApp. Due to different wind directions, the location for powered paragliding also varied. Even if we couldn't fly due to weather conditions, they would thoughtfully arrange another day.

Although the activity lasted only about 10 minutes, it was very enjoyable and gave us a unique experience. From holding onto the parachute during takeoff to flying with open arms, it felt like flying. We could really feel the wind in our ears, the cool breeze hitting our cheeks, and enjoy the beautiful view of Okinawa from above.

Day 3-5
We joined a fun dive activity organized by a Hong Kong-owned diving company. The dive sites included Tai Gorilla, Sand Edge, and Manza Mo. As it was my first time diving abroad, I was very excited and full of anticipation. It was also my first time diving over 20 meters, which was an unprecedented experience. I was looking forward to seeing marine life during the dive. This trip was very rewarding, as we saw sea turtles, sharks, various sea slugs, coral reefs, and more.

Okinawa is truly a place where you can have experiences from the sky to the sea, while also providing a sense of relaxation and vacation.
