Tinian is part of the Northern Marianas Island chain.  It lies 5 km south of Saipan and is 45 minutes by air from Guam.  Less than 4 hours away from Hong Kong, Taipei, Tokyo, Seoul and Manila, Tinian is the perfect getaway from any treasure seeker.

The island is famous for its beautiful beaches, excellent water sport activities such as scuba diving, snorkelling, turtle tours, sunbathing, swimming, parasailing and fishing.

The area is rich in history, its occupation by Spain, Germany, Japan and now the U.S. have left a multicultural experience that feels as though you have visited the United Nations.

Even a touch of the mystery can be found with a visit to the ancient Taga Stone.
