Are there any interesting attractions?
One: Blue Hole
Blue hole is a landmark of Saipan. I didn't see the whole picture, so I came to Saipan for nothing The formation of blue holes can be traced back to the ice age. It turned out that the blue hole was only a cold climate at that time. Glaciers froze water and the sea level of the whole earth dropped sharply. Seawater and fresh water erode each other, eroding the calcareous zone and forming a big hole.
Now the sea is rising and pouring into caves of tens of meters. The sea water here is particularly deep blue, and it looks like the eyes of the ocean from the air. Many divers come here to take photos in the quiet blue hole and witness the magic of nature.
Two: Warship Island
The warship island near Saipan is also worth a visit. This island is small, but it is a scenic spot. If the sea in the blue hole is a mysterious beauty, then the sea in the warship island is a pure beauty. The sea here is like a mirror, clear and bright, shining in the sun. With delicate white sand beach, this is the best companion for a holiday.
Three: Bird Island
Because there are hundreds of kinds of birds living on the island, the island in the north of Saipan is named Bird Island. Because it has been eroded by the sea breeze all the year round, the shape of Bird Island is very special, and it is like being bitten to eat it.
Four: Forbidden Island
The name Forbidden Island is full of imagination. When you see its beautiful appearance, all your troubles disappear. On the left is a cliff 100 feet high, and on the right is a wet and rugged grass beach. Can only cross on foot. Without the support of a professional guide, the process is a hundred times more dangerous.
Five: ATV cross-country
Take a bus to the base and bring a helmet and protective equipment. Under the coach's brief explanation, everyone has mastered the relevant knowledge of ignition, starting and steering of off-road motorcycles. This project is fun! From the very beginning, I drove unsteadily and carefully, and then I flew all the way, starting in five minutes and being cool for an hour! Whether it's a ditch or a ridge, you don't have to hide at all. Grab the handlebars and you can easily cross!
Six: Chamorro Night Market Not to be Missed
Chamorro Night Market is one of the traditional cultural activities in Saipan. There is a night market every Thursday. At the end of every night, people from all over the island gather here for a food party every week.
There is an outdoor stage in the central square of the night market. Indigenous people in traditional costumes perform Saipan-style dances on the stage. With the refreshing sound of the sea tide as the background music, they can watch the changing water and sky and enjoy this romantic moment. The exotic wind is very strong.
How to travel to Saipan?
At present, there are four cities in China that have direct flights to Saipan, namely Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong. The direct flights from Shanghai to Saipan are basically chartered flight, a travel agency, so it is difficult for free travellers to buy them online. You can try to contact the travel agency to buy a round-trip ticket from Shanghai to Saipan.
