Typhoon No. 2 has hit Guam. I remembered that in 2018, Saipan was also hit by super typhoon Yutu, and the airport and hotel were damaged. I can only hope that Guam will recover as soon as possible and that the residents will be able to return to their normal lives.
Thanks to you, there was no direct damage to Saipan this time, and the swells of the sea have already subsided, and we are now approaching a sunny weekend.
The shuttle boats to Managaha Island have resumed operation from today, and people are returning to their daily lives. There is no fallen tree damage in tourist areas, so please come visit Mariana, including Saipan!
However, Rota Island is still damaged, and the electricity and water supply have been stopped. I hope you can recover quickly and get back to your daily life! Then, we will deliver today's video of Managaha below.

Hafa die! Hello everyone.
Typhoon No. 2 has passed through the nearby sea, and the wind has weakened considerably since this afternoon.
Saipan did not suffer much damage.
(I heard that Guam suffered quite a lot of damage, and I hope that it will be restored as soon as possible.)
Today, I went to check whether vehicles can safely come and go, such as access to the airport, northern sightseeing spots, and the mountain road to Mt. Tapochao.
Fortunately, there were no large fallen trees, and there were some spots where dirt was conspicuous, but it was not enough to block the passage of vehicles.
All that's left now is to wait for the flight to reunite.
Last but not least, I would like to apologize to all the customers who came to visit Saipan this time, and I am sorry for the bad weather and the cancellation of flights due to the typhoon.
We hope that the weather will be kinder on your next visit.
If you are in the Kansai area and love resorts and Korea, we recommend using Asiana Airlines for a great value Korean (Incheon Airport) transit Saipan tour!
In Saipan, you can usually buy souvenirs, and there is also a duty-free shop (DFS), but I still want to buy more brands and cosmetics (especially Korean cosmetics)! For those who say, Incheon Airport is a fun place no matter how many layovers you have. You can also enjoy delicious Korean gourmet while shopping.
Please experience the Saipan tour, where you can enjoy two cities at once with a connecting flight from Incheon!
Check out the tour below!

When you go on a trip, enjoying the local food and drink is one of the pleasures, isn't it?
Especially for beer lovers, if you can enjoy craft beer in the area, you will want to go there, right?
This time, I would like to recommend “Tapped Out” in Garapan to those who want to enjoy craft beer unique to the area. You can enjoy craft beer from various countries and regions, including craft beer made in the brewing area at the back of the store, along with delicious meals.
Luckily, they have Happy Hour every day from 5:30pm to 7:00pm!
The shop is located along Micro Beach Road in front of American Memorial Park. How about visiting before or after sunset at Micro Beach, which stretches into Garapan and Memorial Park?
Hafa die! Hello everyone.
The weather was generally good in the morning (although it felt a little windy...)
Typhoon No. 2 (Mawah) is approaching, so we are preparing for the passage of the typhoon for the ships anchored at the port.
Firmly fix with a rope, some ships move to the back of the cove...
Slowly, it seems to pass a little farther south than originally planned, but we can't let our guard down.
(I'm worried that it will pass near Guam)
I just pray that it won't be a big disaster, including the neighboring islands...
Hafa die! Hello everyone.
Today, I went to Coral Ocean Resort with my important business partner.
It felt like half work and half private, so we each ordered a glass of draft beer!
It was a very pleasant pool bar with a pleasant breeze blowing.
(I didn't see a single other customer...)
In fact, this Coral Ocean Resort has a past that was destroyed by a typhoon in 2018.
After that, with the efforts of the owner and others, the guest rooms, the front lobby and the resort pool were renovated,
It has been reborn as a hotel with a very tropical feel.
The recommended point is that you can see the view of Tinian Island from here and the planes coming down to the airport up close.
(Slightly off topic, but it seems that a typhoon is approaching Saipan right now...I'm super worried...)
Hafa die! Hello everyone.
Yesterday, we had a small meeting at Aqua Resort Club.
Oh my God, I was able to experience the newly opened "Lounge Service" from this year.
For guests staying in suite rooms or ocean front rooms,
All-you-can-drink canapes, dry-cured ham, and various drinks from 15:00 to 18:00!
I felt so rich
The slightly silly face and the way it moves in and out is soothing! And "Montsuki Frogfish" which is popular among divers. Since they live in shallow coral reefs, some people may have seen them while snorkeling.
In Saipan, you can meet them at Objan Beach and Laulau Beach.
It might be a good idea to look for a snorkeling tour at a diving shop or when you enjoy snorkeling on your own. By all means, if there is a large coral root hole, please look into it.
New benefits are now available in the Marianacation “Super Profit” campaign!
The name is "Passport Acquisition Support Privilege-My First Vacation is Mariana!"
This is a campaign to present a $50 coupon equivalent to the cost of obtaining a new passport for children aged 0 to 12 when departing from Japan.
The first overseas trip in my life, and the first step to travel to the new world of Corona, is only 3.5 hours by direct flight from Japan. At Mariana in Rota, Tinian, Saipan, the "southern island" that everyone imagines!

Hafa die! Hello everyone.
A new cafe opened in the townhouse shopping center in Chalan Kanoa yesterday.
I went to "De' Cafree Coffee Roasters".
This cafe just opened on April 29th, and it was shiny inside.
I ordered Cafe Latte Hot, and my friend ordered Cafe Latte Hot and iced coffee.
There are also simple snacks!
(I didn't eat it this time, but it felt like a cafe latte or a cappuccino...)
Please stop by when you are in the area.
