Climate / Clothing
What is the weather like in January, February, and March?
January
January is winter season even in tropical Okinawa. Average temperatures 14 ℃ ~ 19 ℃. The air feels colder than the actual temperature. Maximum high is 19 ℃ but the north wind blows regularly and makes it feel chilly. Shorts and flip-flops are not recommended. You will need a jacket or windbreaker, but you will definitely feel warmer than in mainland Japan.

February
February is the coldest month of the year. Average temperatures 14 ℃ ~ 20 ℃. The overall average is 17 ℃, but the island is windy and the cold air makes the temperature feel lower. Most people wear long-sleeved clothing during the day but be sure to bring a jacket for the even cooler mornings and evenings.

March
March is the month summer comes (maybe). Average temperatures 16 ℃ ~ 21 ℃. The overall average is 19 ℃ and the sunlight can be strong during the day. There will some beaches and pools open before the end of the month so do not forget your swimming suit. Short sleeves can be worn during the day but please bring a light weight jacket for cooler days or evenings.

What is the weather like in April, May, and June?
April 
April is early summer and open beaches. Average temperatures 18 ℃~24 ℃. In this cool and comfortable season you can enjoy the unique resort style with a t-shirt and flip-flops during the day. However, UV protection is indispensable, so please have your sunscreen and sunglasses. It can get a little cold early in the morning and evening. You may want thin long sleeves when you go out.

May
May is when you can enjoy Okinawa style Kariyushi wear. Average temperatures 21 ℃~26 ℃. Shorts sleeves and shorts and flip-flops are the most comfortable for moving around. However, indoor air conditioners can be cold, so please be prepared. A thin jacket can be used both for air conditioning and for UV protection. Kariyushi clothing is fun for the whole family to wear.

June
June is when humidity begins to get high. Average temperatures 24 ℃~29 ℃. June is very similar to August in mainland Japan and the sun is very strong. You can spend all your time in short sleeves, shorts, tank tops, etc.

What is the weather like in July, August, and September?
July & August
July / August is the real summer! Average temperatures 26 ℃ ~ 34 ℃. An average day temperature is between 30 and 32 degrees and it rarely exceeds 35℃ because we have frequent summer sqalls and there is always a breeze. You can spend a comfortable day in the shade. Clothing with short sleeves, shorts, tank tops are recommended but please be careful about getting sunburned. The summer also brings typhoons so it is good to check weather reports regularly.

September
September begins to cool down a little. Average temperatures 25 ℃ ~ 30 ℃. Mornings and evenings are comfortable, however, don't forget to take measures against sunburn during the day. UV protection continues to be important. September typhoons are also very frequent.

What is the weather like in October, November, and December?
October
October is a very comfortable month. Average temperatures 22 ℃~27 ℃. The summer days of extreme heat are almost gone, but the days can still be hot. It begins to get chilly in the morning and at night so we recommend bringing a light jacket and walking shoes rather than sandals. Typhoons are fewer but they can still be very powerful.

November
November is the best month for sightseeing. Average temperatures 19 ℃~24 ℃. This month you will feel autumn in Okinawa. Short sleeves during the day is fine but you will want long sleeves or a light jacket for evenings. It is past typhoon season by now.

December
December can be a month of comfortable temperatures or it can feel very cool. Average temperatures 16 ℃~21 ℃. Because of windy conditions it usually feels about 2 degrees colder than the reported temperature. So please be sure to bring a coat especially towards the end of the month. It is a great time for sightseeing rather that looking for indoor activities.
