Weekend in the Kerama's

The beach at Aka. It was beautiful. Snorkeling there is great. We saw a lot of big starfish, fish and beautiful coral.This is sunrise at Aka Island. Isn't it beautiful? This island has deer, When Pam and I got up to walk down to the sunrise, there was a deer standing beside the road. This is out hotel at Aka notice there are three beds and a tatami room. Karen was sweet enough to sleep in the tatami room. Just to give you an idea, this room was bigger and had beds, we paid dearly for this room. We paid 12,600 yen, or $126.00 each for this room. That is over $500 per night for the room. Of course both of these hotels the priced claimed breakfast, the island of AKA hotel served us dinner Saturday night and breakfast Sunday morning.
The beach is absolutely beautiful at Zamami. There were beach lounge chairs and umbrella that we rented. The snorkeling at this beach is just awesome! Saturday evening we took the ferry for a 15 minute ride to the island of Aka.

We took the ferry Friday evening from Okinawa to Zamami. It was beautiful! This is the room that we stayed in at Zamami. The hotel name is Summerhouse Ya Ya, this a traditional Japanese room, called a tatami room. Yes, it really is as small as it looks, and no there is not a bed there. All four of us girls slept on the floor. It was literally wall to wall people! We paid 4,600 yen each for this room, which is about $46.00 each for one night.
