I live in Tokyo and have visited Okinawa on both a land vacation and a cruise. The current benefit to Nakagusuku Port over Naha Port is that the castle in that area did not burn down like the one down south. Otherwise, the island is fairly small and you can get to the major sites from either port. Naha has better shopping, but that’s about the only difference. 
What sort of activities do you enjoy? That would help me point you in the right direction  

Thanks for the reply KristiZ -- really appreciate it.

I will be travelling with my DW and 4 more friends so there will be a total of 6 people.  Really just want to see some sights, get a feel of the Japan culture, a bit of shopping and definitely some good food.  We're on the slow and relaxing pace so no need to pack a large number of activities for the day (or two).

I think there's a fish market nearby the pier but I don't think it's "walk-able"

Also considering renting a car but most of the sites that I can find in the area seems to be in Japanese only and I do not know if they will deliver the car to the pier where we dock.  Alternative will be to get a hired car (will most likely need a mini-van) with a driver (hopefully English speaking)

Any suggestion are welcome.  And thanks in advance for your help 

Currently booked on the Dec 10, 2020 Japan cruise on Spectrum OTS (and hoping that it will not be cancelled - fingers crossed).  The ship will dock at the Nakagusuku Port - 中城湾 in Japanese) instead of Naha Port and I wonder if anyone had any past experience on this port.  Please send any info, advice or local tour / car rental etc... 

Thanks in advance.
