The island of Okinawa reminds me a lot of my country, the Philippines. It feels like home to me because of the exotic tropical ambiance of this island.
I like Sunset Beach near American Village. Couples spend a romantic afternoon along the beach after they shop at American Village and wait for the marvelous sunset to happen. It is indeed a perfect romantic date place.
American influence is undoubtedly strong here in American Village. The US military base is just around the corner. It's no wonder why the shops and restaurants are so Westernized.
