Saipan is the fastest growing island in
Micronesia. A historic World War II site,
the island retains the feeling of an isolated
tropical paradise. Today Saipan is modern,
with it’s villages developing to small towns.
Most of the island is protected by a fringing
coral reef with beaches considered some of the
best in Micronesia.
The eastern side of the
island has towering cliffs and rugged rocks,
creating a stark contrast in scenery and a
storm break. There are remnants and
remembrances of WWII scattered throughout the
island and ceremonies are often held by
survivors and families from both sides of the
conflict.
The caves of Saipan still contain
remains of Japanese troops who held out during
prolonged guerrilla warfare. As late as 1952,
a few stragglers surrendered, unaware that the
war had ended years before.
