Orientation and how to get around Naha

The Okinawa Monorail (Yui Rail) and buses provide relatively efficient public transportation inside Naha City, even though finding the right bus connection and bus stop to get off is not always straight forward.

Rental cars are available at the airport and several outlets across the city. Daily rates, including tax and insurance, start around 4000 Yen for the smallest car category, if you book through a discount travel service like ToCoo. They tend to be considerably higher if you directly book through a rental car company.

Okinawa drivers tend to be considerate, signs in Japanese and English and rental cars equipped with a car navigation system. Note that traffic can be very heavy in Naha, especially during the morning and evening rush hours on weekdays. Beware of scooters, which often pass standing or slowly moving cars at high speeds.
