2 Days in Okinawa. beach and resort or Naha and tours ?

Hey everyone, I’m visiting Okinawa this October and could use some advice.

I already booked Okinawa Kariyushi Beach Resort Ocean SPA for 2 nights at 640 CAD, but I just realized it’s located in the north of the island and quite far from Naha. Without renting a car, I feel like I might have very limited options for tours or activities.

My second option would be to cancel that reservation and instead stay in Naha for around 300 CAD for 2 nights, and then use the extra budget to book a few tours (island trips, cultural activities, etc.). In the end, the total cost would be about the same as keeping the resort booking.

I’m torn between:

  • Staying in the north for a more “resort and beach” experience, but with limited mobility and tours.
  • Staying in Naha for better access to tours, ferries, and nightlife, but with a less “resort-style” atmosphere.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Which option would you recommend?
