There is no other beach resort that is as good as Saipan for overseas driving and overseas rental car first challenges.
There is not much traffic and the local drivers drive leisurely, so there is no need to rush. Compared to Tokyo and Osaka in Japan, there are far fewer traffic lights, and the parking lot is spacious, so even a paper driver is safe.
You can drive a car with a Japanese driver's license for 30 days after entering the country.
In addition to a driver's license, you must be 21 years of age or older and have a credit card in the driver's name.
Hafadai! Hello everyone.
I was in Japan for about a week.
I heard from customers that it was hotter in Japan, but it was really hot.
ladies and gentlemen. Please be careful of heat stroke.
By the way, the I Love Saipan memae stop of the free shuttle connecting major hotels on the west side and the Garapan area has been changed to the DFS south exit.
Large buses can safely park and stop under the big roof, so we are very welcome!
It was very convenient to catch the bus after shopping at DFS - the bus timetable has also changed nicely.
You can check the timetable from the website below.

This free shuttle will end on August 31st...
We will contact you again when we have information after September!
"The Marianas Experience" where you can experience and learn about Marianas culture
"The Marianas Experience" is being held in Saipan where you can see traditional songs and dances, arts and crafts, and learn more about the history and culture of Marianas through handmade workshops!
There are also local food tastings and special handicrafts sold by Mariana's handmade craftsmen.
The venue is T Galleria Saipan by DFS in Garapan and will be held every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday until November 30, 2023. Please feel free to stop by when it's hot outside and you want to cool off.
Hafa die! Hello everyone.
The other day, my wife came back to Saipan after completing preparations for her second daughter's enrollment and moving in Japan.
I immediately took him to "Takumi Restaurant", which I've been hooked on recently.
(I'm sorry that Takumi Restaurant has continued recently...)
New discovery this time! ! !
Coco's "Poki" and "Pasta (this time carbonara)" are super delicious.
Poke is on the menu in various places in Saipan, but I think Takumi has the best seasoning for poke!
The taste of pasta is also high level!
My wife had the beef stew that I recommended.
My son ordered a lunch box for dinner. Deep-fried food, a little side dish, and my favorite sashimi are very satisfying! I think $18 is a good value for dinner.*By the way, this time I ordered a manga-style meal...and I got a second serving!
Sue (Chef Suzuki) Thank you for the arrangement!
(The side dishes are curry sauce and fried shrimp.)

Hafa die! Hello everyone.
Last week, I took my son to Takumi Restaurant for dinner.
(I was going to post it already, but it seems it didn't go up...)
The boat captain who has been taking care of Coco for a long time told me, "Takumi's beef stew is delicious!", so I went there.
Try it and be surprised! This beef stew was so delicious that I could drink as much as I wanted!
Beef stew is only available at dinner time, and it doesn't seem to be on the menu at lunch time...
Steak, fried chicken, fried shrimp, etc. were all delicious. It feels like a western restaurant in the city where you can easily enter, and the price is reasonable. It's been a long time since I've had a satisfying meal out!
I want to share this deliciousness with everyone.

School is about to enter summer vacation. Have you decided on your plans for this summer?
Anyway, Japan is currently experiencing an unusually hot weather. A guerrilla downpour also occurs...
How about leaving Japan and coming to Saipan, where you can enjoy summer at a resort in the right temperature?
Stay, play, eat, heal! Saipan World Resort is a resort hotel with a huge water park built on the beach.
There are plenty of beach activities such as snorkeling and SUP in the clear water!
Local restaurants and supermarkets are also nearby. The shaved ice that you can eat in the hotel lobby is also excellent!
Hafadai! Hello everyone.
Yesterday, I went to Managaha Island for the first time in a while.
It seems that the management company of Managaha Island has changed since July, and the business content on the island has changed a little.
<Good points>
Lifeguards were deployed!
For the first time in a long time, the sound of a whistle that calls attention to "beep" or "beep" is ringing,
It seems that they are doing their best to watch over them so that they do not become a serious water accident.
(However, if you drown, it will be difficult to rescue you. Please enjoy swimming at your own risk.)
<Unfortunately...>
The "gift shop" and "rental shop" were closed, probably due to a problem with the tenant contract on the island.
"Snorkel mask", "life jacket", "beach chair & parasol" cannot be rented on the island.
We recommend that you prepare in advance by yourself (don't forget your towel!)
Also, the restaurant was open. However, there were only beverages (mineral water, sodas, beer, etc.), simple snacks, and spicy ramen...
Credit cards are not accepted, only cash is accepted..
There are no lockers, so please manage your luggage yourself. .
The beach was as clear and beautiful as ever!
Please come and visit us.
Hafadai! Hello everyone.
Yesterday, I wanted to eat sushi for the first time in a while, so I went to "SUSHI SPOT Restaurant".
A local chef was showing his skills in a clean shop.
I always go to "Himawari" when I eat sushi, but when I want to eat sushi rolls, I think this place is good!
Finished off with fried ice cream

At Crowne Plaza Resort Saipan, from 16:00 to 18:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays until September 30th, you can experience making traditional Mariana crafts.
If you have come all the way to Saipan, why not experience the traditional crafts that have been loved in the southern islands of Mariana, such as lauhala bracelets, accessories made from palm leaves, and tilly flays? Even children can experience it, and it will surely be a good memory. Participation is free of charge, and the venue is the hotel lobby, so why not create a memento before you go out to dinner and wear it to dinner?
Please experience it!
Hafa die! Hello everyone.
Keiko, the guide who went sightseeing the other day, told me about it.
Oh my God! It seems that I found a plumeria with 6 petals. (usually 5 plumeria)
It is said that good luck will come to those who find this six-petal plumeria.
May everyone be happy!
Before the end of the tour, they stopped by the popular local restaurant “Inus Kitchen”.
I love this restaurant too!
I think Inas Kitchen is Saipan's No. 1 hamburger.
Here, the side dish is
* Mashed potatoes * French fries (potatoes)
*Sweet potato French fries (Sweet potato? Purple potato?)
You can choose from 3 types, but my recommendation is "sweet potato fries"
The light saltiness and faint sweetness are the most delicious!
If you have a chance, please try it!
