Has anyone visited the west side of Japan? I'm thinking of popping into Kanagawa as I hear the west side is really chill.
I'd consider Sapporo but I think March is a bit too chilly to head up there so south is probably where we'll spend our non-Tokyo time. Anyone been to Okinawa?
Edit: If the F1 schedule holds for 2027 then it's possible that Suzuka happens while I'm in Japan which would be dope.

We went Okinawa in march last year before catching f1, we rented a car and headed up north towards the aquarium and stayed there for a few days.
This beach was completely empty for around the 2 hours we were there -
Nagahama Beach 今帰仁村
Other nearby beach spots were very crowded
We also got to check out this cafe Yachimun Cafe Shisa Garden
やちむん喫茶シーサー園, bit of fog and rain when we went and it was relaxing just looking out into the mountains and listening to the rain. Even though there were korean and chinese tourists there as well, everyone kept their conversations to whispers.
On the same trip before getting to Nagoya for F1 we also did a 3 night road trip from Fukuoka- Nagasaki- Takachiho Gorge - Oita- back to Fukuoka.
Got to visit Nagasaki bio park, row a boat at Takachiho Gorge, checked out Mount Aso, drove through a safari, visited Beppu before heading back to Fukuoka
We're planning on going Japan at the end of March this year and was wondering if anyone has recommendations for a 5 or 7 day road trip? Preferably begins and ends in Osaka cause our flight in and out is Osaka- Unless someone has a better spot to road trip in Japan in march, then we can fly out to that city as well.
Preliminary considering,
Osaka - Tottori - Okyama check out some islands like Shodoshima then head back to Osaka
