Our reporter cycles 5km along the Mid-Sea Road that links 4 isles in Uruma, Okinawa Pref. He finds the azure seas so irresistible he takes a kayaking tour and goes snorkeling. He wanders through traditional Okinawan townscapes, takes goats out to graze, and visits spots full of the energy of the deities. Also, a beach in Mitoyo, Kagawa Pref., is setting social media alight. Low tide at Chichibugahama, especially at dusk, is the time to take creative, mirrored photos reflected in the pools of water.
