=Okinawa= Okinawa is located in the far south of Japan, not far from Taiwan. While the main island is quite large, most of it is accessible within 90 minutes-2 hours if you have your own car. There is lots of beautiful coastline which lends itself well to beach outings with kids, and also has great opportunity for scuba diving and especially snorkeling.
