Nestled in the heart of the Pacific, the Northern Mariana Islands are like Hawaii's cool cousin, who had less hype but is equally beautiful. They're like the hidden special chapter in a novel of Pacific paradises, full of enigmatic volcanoes, pristine beaches and surprises at every flip flop step. Filled with unrivaled flora, fauna, and a refreshing lack of Starbucks on every corner, they're a sublime escape from the humdrum of "too-much-civilisation". Perfect for those who want their tropical getaway with a side of whimsical adventure, and prefer their morning coffee with dolphins over the daily news broadcast.
