Japan, Okinawa 日本冲绳

Okinawa is Japan's southernmost prefecture, consisting of a few dozen, small islands in the southern of the Nansei Shoto. Okinawa Prefecture can be divided into three major island groups, the Okinawa Islands (Okinawa Shoto) around Okinawa Island (Okinawa Honto), the Miyako Islands (Miyako Retto) around Miyako Island and the Yaeyama Islands (Yaeyama Retto) around Ishigaki Island. Okinawa's climate is subtropical, with temperatures barely falling below 15 degrees in winter. The seas surrounding Okinawa's islands are considered among the world's most beautiful area with coral reefs and abundant marine wildlife.Consequently, snorkeling and scuba diving are among Okinawa's top attractions.

冲绳县是位于日本最南端的行政区，由琉球群岛南部的许多小岛组成。冲绳县由三大重要的岛群组成：冲绳本岛附近的冲绳群岛、宫古岛附近的宫古列岛和石垣岛附近的八重山列岛。冲绳属于亚热带海洋气候，冬天的温度很少会低于15度。该岛四周都是海洋，被称为世界上珊瑚礁最美和海洋生物最丰富的岛屿。因此，这里是浮潜和轻便潜水的理想地方。

旅游便签 Travel Notes

Best Time to Visit 最佳游览季节

The best time to visit Okinawa will depend on your goals. In general, avoid mid-May to mid-June, which is the rainy season. The subtropical climate means the temperatures in winter rarely drop below 15°C, and because this Okinawa celebrates the arrival of cherry blossom in January. For marine sports including scuba diving, July to October is the best time since the water temperature is around 25°C-28°C and the southerly breezes are not strong. However, July to September is also typhoon season, so the fantastic weather can be interrupted by several days of heavy rains and ferocious winds.

你在不同的季节去日本冲绳旅游会有不同的收获。五月中旬到六月中旬一般是雨季，一般要避开这一段时间。这里属于亚热带气候，冬季最低气温很少低于15度，这样的温度使得每年一月这里都会举行樱花节。如果想体验潜水运动，那么七月到十月就是不错的选择，因为这个时候的水温很合适，大约在25度到28度之间，从南方刮来的风也不那么猛烈。但是七月到九月就到了台风季节，所以也会突然有那么几天不停地下暴雨和刮台风。

Getting There 抵达方法

Once you land in Okinawa, you'll basically have three main modes of transportation: taxi, car rental and the Okinawa monorail line, which runs between Naha Airport and Shuri.

来到了冲绳岛，你只有三种交通方式可选：打车、租车或乘坐冲绳单轨（从那霸机场站到首里站）。
