Okinawa
Okinawa, often recognised for its strategic importance during World War II and the continued presence of American military bases, offers much more beyond its historical significance. Famed for its exceptional longevity, Okinawa boasts one of the highest life expectancies in the world. The region's natural beauty is equally impressive, with stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant coral reefs. This short photo series was captured over a few days spent exploring the main island and the picturesque Kerama Island national park.
