Okinawa
Okinawa has long been known as the “Hawaii of the East” among Japanese people. Here, you can engage in various water activities on this azure sea—banana boat rides, canoeing, jet skiing, snorkeling—and enjoy marine sports to your heart’s content. In addition to its clear waters, another major appeal of Okinawa is that it hosts Japan’s largest offshore aquarium. Furthermore, due to its relatively small number of visitors and its proximity to Taiwan, it has in recent years become a popular choice for hosting overseas marine aquarium exhibitions.

Elegantly designed churches, set against emerald seas, white sands, and blue skies, exude the charm of a southern paradise. Pure, dazzling spaces accentuated by stained glass appear especially graceful... With the unspoiled blue sky and sea as the backdrop, standing before the vast blue ocean altar to make lifelong vows, and completing the ceremony amidst a shower of flower petals and blessings from loved ones—this moment of happiness and beauty instantly becomes eternal.
