- Surfing in Japan is a unique experience. With Surfing's debut at the Tokyo Olympic Games, I thought I'd share my surf experience in Okinawa. In this video, I discuss the history of surfing in Japan, as well as why Okinawa is a Blue Zone, a part of the world with the longest living people, as well as catch some waves at a fun Japanese reef break.
Join me as I take you #Surfing in #Japan.

I love surfing (I have never tried it but I admire it) and I love Japan so this is great for me.
It’s never too late to start 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
For all the car guys, pause the video at 14:48 , you’re welcome
What’s the name of that car again? Supra?
@@AlexanderAyling that’s the one! Love the video, so well made and gives lots of cool info in a fun digestible way! 🤙
Alex love the videos with the old travel footage !
Thanks Timothy! I’ve got a lot more hidden gems in the hard drives that haven’t seen the light of day. Should I keep them coming?
@@AlexanderAyling Yes!
Great Alex the Vagabond Video, thanks for sharing
Thank you Tony! I appreciate it! Would you like more videos in this style?
My daughter and her hubby spent a week's break in Okinawa just a week ago. They are currently on a 3-yr contract working in Japan (Shikoku) and it's difficult to travel anywhere for a break so chose Okinawa. They loved it! As for the Olympics, I'll watch any sport that I can, especially when Kiwis are competing. I just hope the games get finished without too many Covid problems as the athletes from all over have had to keep on training in extremely difficult times. They all deserve a medal just for perseverance. Great video Alex.
Glad you daughter and husband got to experience Okinawa too! Thanks for sharing. I hope the Olympics go smoothly too!
That place is beautiful and the filming is done so well! I’m always soo impressed with it! Keep living the dream 👍🏻
Thank you Dane!! Much appreciated 🙏🏼
Omg the water is so clear and that fish @8:29 the colours "wow" I really enjoyed this video thanks for taking me to Okinawa and surfing Alex 👍🏽
I'm cheering for NZ 🇳🇿@ the Olympics, especially Valerie 👏🏽
Thank you Meg! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Just love to see you Alex , turning your camera up and shows us the divine beuty :)
Thank you Nimish 🙏🏼
I miss traveling, will we ever travel again🥺 Awesome video Alex
Hahah great question! I think so. Thanks for watching
Love your travel videos!
Gorgeous footage of nature and places to explore.
8:28 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 WOW SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FISH!!!!!!!. I feel like just eating that fish every month would help you live past 100 years old!!!!!🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Anyone know the name of that fish!?!?!?🤔🤔🤔
And the king of surf boards returns, amazing video sir. The best part is you describing about the history about a particular spot. Thank you ❤
Haha thank you Piyush! I appreciate the kind words 👑
Whole foods, plant based for the win!
Wow! U went to Japan!!!!Cool!!Love that you’re traveling again!!!
Didn't know Okinawa has such sick waves. Great video as always!
Have visited Japan twice but want to go to Okinawa now. Really excited for the sport climbing which is also going to be a first for the Olympics this year.
Endless Summer to Wingnut longboard session
Cool vid!! Hope you make it back and come surf a day of amazing waves that Okinawa Offers!! Right place...Right time!!
Thank you! I hope to return someday soon. 🙏🏼
It said surfing was brought to Japan in the 60s... My grandparents were the first people to bring surfing over earlier then that. They taught the Japanese how to surf. So many good stories
Japan is on my bucket list!!
I didnt know you were a good surfer Alex.
Okinawa is cooler than the main island.
Its the Hawaii of Japan.
Its definitely a unique experience seeing a different country not just NZ.
Thanks Alex for this video.
Awesome travels ✌️😎🎉
Thank you Nikki! Have you been to Okinawa too?
Thanks for the video mate, going there this afternoon 😄
Super cool video
I love the repurposed videos.
🙏🏼❤️
Amazing
The decision that haunts me constantly-eat healthy and live to 100, or eat indulgently until 65...
Lol
Anybody know some good spots near camp kinser or foster?
Very nice
Cheers!
Lived there 60-63. No surfing then
What was the cost to rent a board
There are many foreigners in Okinawa so don’t worry about speaking Japanese 🤣
I loved visiting and can't wait to come back and experience more. Thanks for watching Honoka!
What you said about okinawan diet is wrong! Okinawans love meat and fish and almost one third of their calories come from animal protein and fat, if not more!! Let alone the calories that come from vegetable oils (fried oil) so why are you lying??
Good waste of 20 min
