When is the best month to go see the sea?
The Northern Mariana Islands are located in the hinterland of the Western Pacific and have a typical tropical maritime climate. Affected by the seasonal northeast trade winds, the dry season is from December to June, and the rainy season is from July to November. Typhoons often pass through during the rainy season, so it is best to travel during the dry season.
The Northern Mariana Islands’ annual average temperature is 29 degrees Celsius, making it the “place with the smallest temperature change in the world” in the Guinness Book of World Records. Because it is located in the middle of the ocean, the air humidity in the Northern Mariana Islands is often as high as 80%, and it may feel a little muggy. Since there are no polluting industries, the air and sea water in the Northern Mariana Islands are extremely pure, making it a paradise on earth where you can completely relax your body and mind.
If you want to enjoy endless sunshine, it is best to go during the dry season from December to May every year. If you want to focus on diving, you should go during the calmest months from May to July.
The weather in the Northern Mariana Islands is hot and humid, and water sports are popular, so be sure to bring a few extra sets of clothes. In addition, most hotels in Saipan provide self-service washing machines and dryers that can be used 24 hours a day. Prepare portable laundry detergent in advance so you can do laundry even when the stores are closed.
