• Okinawa II

    April 24, 2020 in Japan ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

    Early morning, I got up and went out to get some breakfast at Mos Burger and met up with Eliska at Kokusaidori to head to the bus terminal going to the beach. On the bus, one of my job agents called me since I was job hunting at that time though at that point not really. We went to Moon Beach first, the place was absolutely devoid of any other human. We pretty much had the whole place to ourselves, it was a bit chilly but it was still a beautiful beach. We spent an hour or so here before heading to the next beach near Sheraton at San Marina.

    This area was huge and breathtaking with turquoise waters and wonderful cloud formations, the pictures were marvelous. We went around the area and even inside the restricted zones, we climbed the lighthouse and walked across the wooden bay walk seeing different kinds of fish swimming under the crystal clear waters. We were in for a bigger surprise as we saw through the bushes that the beach does in fact stretch further for a couple of more kilometers. We left our things at one of the tables seeing as there was nobody there anyway, even the hotel itself was closed. We walked and walked and the landscapes seemed to change every few meters. The beach was very dynamic with lots of different rock formations, caves and wildlife. All in all, it was one of the best beaches in Okinawa so far. As it was getting dark, we decided to head home. I remember getting some okonomiyaki for dinner and also realizing that I couldn't withdraw money from the ATM so I had to call my bank to have it fixed, luckily they were still taking phone calls even late at night and managed to sort things out.
