We visited this place on the afternoon of our first day in Saipan. The road to the closed island is unrepaired, so be prepared for bumps. The entrance to the trail is not obvious. We found it was still because several cars were parked around. It takes about an hour and a half to walk and it’s still quite tough! You need to make sure you have good quality shoes, hats and lots of water. I wasn’t prepared for this tough hike and I was wearing slippers...but it was definitely worth the hard work. I just wish this place would remain pristine forever!

    Bandu Island is a more famous attraction in Saipan. When you come here, you will join the group. If you drive by yourself, you will finally come to the suv. The chassis of the car is a bit low and not safe. The scenery of this small island is also good, you can go up when the tide is low.

    The island is just southeast of Saipan. This small island is an outlying island. There is a path to go up when the tide is low. When the tide is high, it will be completely separated from Saipan. But generally no one will go up.

    Banbiao Island is a small island on Saipan Island. When the tide is low, you can go to the island. If the tide is high, you can't pass it. This small island was previously said to be a place where locals reported sacrifices at a specific time.

    This should be the most attractive place for me in Saipan. As a pedestrian drives along the road sign towards forbidden island, he only feels that there are bushes beside him, with a slight expectation of the scene in front of him. Because the more beautiful the place is, the deeper it hides. I was really attracted when I got out of the car! The beauty of the blue can not be described in words. The forbidden island is the rock in the distance. It's a pity that it's not convenient to go downhill with slippers and miss the beautiful scenery.

    Bandu Island is a place of profound significance for the locals. It is a place where the local indigenous people used to kill the sky. People on Bandu Island can't go up. They can only stand on the top of the mountain next to it and look down. The scenery is very good. The island is like a huge altar. It is spectacular. Self-driving people are more difficult to find the dirt road up the mountain, and the entrance is more hidden.

    Interruption Island is a peninsula of Saipan Island, which can be hiked and snorkeled. It is said that in the past, the local natives begged for rain to kill people here, so it is called Banned Island. To get to the island, you need to walk for 30 minutes, and many steep slopes are very rugged. It's a natural swimming pool. It's not too big or deep, but nobody disturbs it. It's quiet. People who are not good at swimming can also freely fly here, take some food to feed the fish, and swim with the fish.

    The scenery of Banned Island is very beautiful, and it's a bit too grieving to rank 8th in Saipan. The last section of the road to the forbidden island (about 2 kilometers) is a dirt road, very narrow, with dense shrubs on both sides. It's difficult to miss a bus, but it's not as rough as it is to break through the Chaoshan Mountains. The entrance to the last leg of the walk was very hidden (the picture with the billboard) and two or three cars of the donkey pal in front of them would have gone by if they hadn't stopped by the roadside. Nevertheless, it doesn't matter if it's over. It's only 100 metres ahead. At the end of the road is a viewing platform overlooking the forbidden island. The trail is very difficult to walk and falls so much that many places are almost covered by shrubs and weeds. The scenery is very good, but unfortunately there is no wading equipment and the day is getting late, and there is no real landing near. This is also the only place in Saipan where I met several Western tourists but did not meet Chinese and Korean tourists.

    It is worth a visit. The so-called dirt road is not a problem at all. I have no pressure on the Nissan two drives, but it is a bit pothole. Really, like the brother of the blue Toyota fj in Tuli, I walked on the altar. I took my wife and children and could only take a few pictures on the observation deck. I must also go on the one person.
