Giant GREEN ALIEN Shell!! Sashimi + EXOTIC SEAFOOD in Okinawa, Japan!

NAHA, OKINAWA - We’re on the island of Okinawa in southern Japan, and Okinawa is famous for its incredible seafood. Due to being further south, the seafood selection is totally different from what you’d find in northern parts of Japan, here it’s much more tropical.
Today we’re heading straight to the Makishi Public Market (goo.gl/maps/pEMxXv49G8NuM7899), an absolute seafood wonderland where you will see a full aquarium of different seafood available and an amazing colorful selection. After walking around for a few minutes we then decided on a very friendly couple who had a fantastic fresh catch. We bought a giant slipper lobster (biggest I’ve ever seen), a huge green turban shell, and a red grouper.
Total price - 31,680 JPY for everything
Upstairs you can eat all your fresh seafood at a restaurant where they will prepare it for you.
Price - 2,650 JPY for cooking and side dishes
When you’re in Okinawa, visiting the Makishi Public Market for a seafood meal is a must!
Thanks to my friend Yuji-San for taking me about Naha: / hotel_manager_jt

    @@mmosm Maybe you should clarify that comment but I will lend you some assistance. The Ryukyu Kingdom (TRK), now known as Okinawa, was unofficially annexed by Japan in 1429 even though TRK had already established an economic relationship with the Ming Dynasty of China, became a vassal of the Satsuma and Tokugawa Shogunate in 1609 after the Invasion of Ryukyu and then was formally annexed by Japan in 1879. The Ryukyu Kingdom had trade/economic relations with both Japan and China from the late 1300's until it was formally annexed. Chinese influence can be see throughout the island but Okinawa is neither Japanese nor Chinese. Nan kurunai sa!
