Okinawa Vacation - Days 2-3

After a couple days in Okinawa, we took a 2 hour ferry ride to the island of Zamami. Zamami is known for it's turquoise, clear water and excellent scuba diving. We arrived just at the start of whale watching season, so it was still pretty quiet on the island. It felt like we had the beach to ourselves!

Most of our time on Zamami was spent walking and exploring or chilling by the beach. Perfect! Our bed and breakfast took us for a van ride along the island. There are 4-5 observation towers that have great views of the ocean and surrounding islands.

Here is the town of Zamami.

We had a traditional Japanese breakfast for our last morning in Zamami. We ate fish, rice, miso soup, pickled vegetables, and a salad. It was really good, although I have to admit it's a little hard to get used to such savory tastes for breakfast.

We took a faster ferry back to Okinawa for one last afternoon before our flight.
