Weather shifts through genuine seasons here, from January's cool stretch to April's warmth, with rain a little heavier around August and lighter around March — real variation, but nothing as sharp as a true monsoon or Mediterranean dry season. In March, expect highs around 29°C with rain on roughly 8 days of the month.
Things to Do
Diving around Saipan and Tinian, along with their WWII history, are the main draws.
Local Cuisine
Try Chamorro-style kelaguen and fresh reef fish.
