🌴 Saipan was quieter than I expected, and I loved it even more for that. The warm breeze greeting me as I stepped off the plane and the endless expanse of cobalt-blue ocean were healing in themselves. The half-day spent on Managaha Island felt like a dream, and it was the first time I realized how crystal-clear water could be. While snorkeling, watching tropical fish swim right in front of me, I thought to myself, "Coming here was truly the right decision." In the evening, I enjoyed local food and a beer on the beach as the sun set. Time flowed slowly, and my heart gradually unwound. If you need a quiet escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life, Saipan is the island that offers just that. 📍 Location: Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands 📍 Recommended Spots: Managaha Island, Mount Tapochau, Garapan Street, Micro Beach

Mount Tapochau, also known as Tappochao Mountain, has an altitude of 473 meters and is the highest point on Saipan Island. The landmark here is a white statue of Jesus, where you can overlook Saipan Island 360 degrees. It is also a good place on the island to watch the sunrise and sunset. Because Saipan Island is an island in the Pacific Ocean, the weather here is unpredictable. One minute it may be sunny, and the next minute it could be dark clouds and heavy rain. To get to Machu Picchu, you can hike, drive, or even try the off-road motorcycle project on the island.

If you ride an ATV and climb to the top of Mt. Tapochau, the highest peak in Saipan, which is 473m above sea level and located in the center of the island, you can see the 360-degree best view of Saipan Island👀 You don't need a driver's license for ATVs, and since they are so easy and simple to drive, you can easily drive them if you just listen to the safety training! There is a hiking trail to the top of Mt. Tapochau, but I recommend an ATV tour rather than walking when you get to the top🫶 You can see the really beautiful scenery at a glance! #Overseas travel #Saipan #Mt. Tapochau #atv tour
