Ladder Beach
Located on the southern part of the island, Ladder Beach on Saipan
is very secluded and requires a short hike down steep stairs to
reach the cove. This beach is surrounded on all sides by
cliffs and at the bottom of the cliff you will find large open
caves along the beach which are great for providing shade during
really hot and sunny days.
Lau Lau Beach
Found along Magicienne Bay on the southeast part of Saipan, Lau Lau Beach
is a large beach divided into sections by rock formations with
shallow waters and gentle waves. Getting to Lau Lau Beach is
a little rough as the road is unpaved and it might be a good idea
to bring a 4 wheel vehicle if your planning to visit the beach
otherwise it can take a while. The eastern part of the beach
is a popular dive spot.
Marine Beach
This beach is located on the eastern coast of Saipan and has some of the
bluest waters on the island. In addition, vacationers can
find pavilions complete with barbeque pits to spend a relaxing day
at the beach.
Micro Beach
Lined with Japanese World War II bunkers and also the location of
an ancient Carolinian village, Micro Beach is probably the most
popular beach on the island today. Micro Beach offers a
large park area complete with picnic tables and other amenities.
Large trees scattered throughout the park also provide some shade
from the hot tropical sun.
Obyan Beach
Caves, World War II bunkers, secret tunnels, and latte stones, and
an ancient Chamorro village are what await you at Obyan Beach.

beach to visit. Obyan Beach is also popular among divers and
snorkelers, and provides some great hiking trails to Naftan
Peninsula.
Pau Pau Beach
Located in the northwestern part of the island, one interesting
fact about Pau Pau Beach is archeologists recently found ancient
Chamorro artifacts and bones on the southern part of the beach
from pre-latte times. Today, visitors can enjoy the long,
isolated sandy beach complete with picnic pavilions and barbeque
pits. You'll also find a Japanese World War II bunker on the
beach site.
Tank Beach
Nicknamed Tank Beach because of an old relic World War II tank which can
be seen in the waters just off the shore, Tank Beach is another
great beach to just relax in Saipan's beautiful tropical weather,
and take a dip in the cool refreshing Pacific Ocean.
Wing Beach
Found on the northwestern part of Saipan just past the Marianas
Resort you can get to Wing Beach by turning left on Wing Beach
Road and arriving at one of two entrances to the beach.
Spending a day at the beach barbequing and enjoying the tropical
sun is a enjoyable activity for many people who come to Wing
Beach. There is also a channel where people usually swim out to go
diving.
