Travel to Okinawa from mainland Japan
We are visiting Japan in April and I am thinking about a couple of days of sun, bathing and snorkelling in Okinawa. What are the travel options for this? Flying from Tokyo is probably one. Are there over night ferries? How long is the trip and what is the expected cost?
