Okinawa in $850s-$860s RT

Winter and spring are great times to see whales and cherry blossoms in Okinawa, but the water gets a little too chilly for diving. Luckily, you can still get your coral fix!

Enter the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium. The third-largest aquarium in the world, Churaumi's highlights include an 80,000-gallon tank full of naturally grown coral and tropical fish, a massive central tank featuring whale sharks and manta rays, and even an eerie deep-sea exhibit.

Add in some hikes, delicious seafood meals, and shopping for banana-fiber kimonos, and you won't even have time for the beach anyway :-)
