Saipan is a beautiful island that has a lot to offer. We stayed at the Halfadai hotel and it was not bad. You can book nice day trips but they are usually in Japanese. Bird island and the Last Command Post were highlights for me.

This is a most amazing small island just a couple of kilometers of the NE coast of Saipan. Catch a boat to get a ride across to spend a day on the whitest of whits beaches. Ask the boat captain to show you the submerged 2nd world war plane at 15meter depth on the way back. :-)
