Driving in Okinawa for the first time advice from experienced drivers?

Hi everyone,

I’ll be visiting Okinawa in July and I’m planning to rent a car for a few days. I’ve been actively driving in Istanbul for over 10 years. I’m also used to driving comfortably in a chaotic city like Istanbul.

However, I’ve never driven a right-hand drive car before and I’ve also never driven on the left side of the road.

For those who have driven in Okinawa, how was your experience?
How hard was it to adapt at first?
Any tips or things I should be extra careful about?

I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences. Thanks!
