167 - Kamakura Beach


Nice Saturday with sunbathing, and watching surfers struggle in those teeny-tiny waves.

Sidenote: Any beach I visit in Japan is full of jarheads. Okinawa is packed with these US bases, and in Yokosuka, which is just near Kamakura, there's a US Navy base as well.

160 - Beach fo' Real


Now that's a real beach, even though you can't see the sand on the photo. We found it on Google Maps satellite map! Technology Über Alles! Few years ago you had to ask actual people for stuff like this (well we did, but they didn't know)

Zoli has some better pictures (including nice booties)

156 - Open Water Diver

154 - Okinawa Golden Plage


This was the best beach in Naha, capital of Okinawa. Well yes, it's a port town, but the hotels near nice beaches were quite expensive.

Fortunately we found a nice beach using the satellite view in Google Maps, which was 16 km from the hotel, so we could go there by some rental bikes on other days. And the fun part is that the bike rental was for free, thanks to some new policy in Naha City, they created several bicycle rental spots, offering bikes for free between stations. I'm looking forward to the day they do this in Budapest.

About the beach...Well, at least we didn't get sunburned while swimming in the shadow of the highway. How bizarre...

I planned quite a busy schedule, so at this point nobody was truly enthusiastic about temple no. 563.
