I Explored Okinawa in a Camping Car (This is the Best Way to do it)

Okinawa is Japan's southwestern-most prefecture. Formerly the Ryukyu Kingdom, which was only annexed by Japan in the late 1800s, it still retains some cultural differences, not to mention its tropical latitude means it has flora and fauna very different to that of Japan's four main islands. In order to explore the main island how I normally like to explore (in my own camper van), I rented a couple camping cars from Evertrail (https://evertrailokinawa.com) to explore the main island for a few days. I spent most of my time in the northern part of the island where nature is the most abundant. I came across quiet beaches, waterfall swimming holes, and even a couple decent hikes! In my opinion, this is the best way to explore the main island of Okinawa.
