I admit I often do these things whenever I can, squeezing a few minutes to start my day before going to work, or steal a few minutes to refresh my system. I found that it always helps.
If you have a few hours to spare especially during the late afternoon, one of the best places to visit is Micro Beach in Garapan. Located next to American Memorial Park, the beach is one of Saipan’s most accessible with picnic facilities, spacious parking areas, picnic tables under the shade of the trees, a playground for kids and child-friendly white shores where kids can frolic and have fun.
Micro Beach is one great hangout to watch one of Saipan’s glorious sunsets, with Managaha in the backdrop.
I could sit for hours on end on the seaside and listen to the jovial shouts of kids, watch couples and families bond together, stare dreamily from a distance as boats head to Managaha, or watch tourists floating above the clouds in colorful parasails.
A very popular windsurfing spot, Micro Beach hosts hundreds of windsurfers from all other parts of the world each year. When the winds are strong and you think the ideal thing to do is stay inside the house, I find my way to Micro Beach and enjoy watching windsurfers taking advantage of the strong winds.
When you feel stressed and need to unwind, try visiting some of Saipan’s beaches such as Micro Beach, and you’ll come back feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. A few hours of relaxation are within your reach, and are free.
