It is a small pocket beach with small limestone cliffs on either side. To get down to the beach one has to climb down some rocks, but most prefer to just jump into the clear green and blue water from the small cliffs.
This is the most popular way to enjoy Taga Beach.1. Walk down the concrete path in the above photo to get to the edge of the cliff.
2. Jump in
3. Swim to shore
4. Climb up the rocks to get back to the top
5. Repeat.
Here are steps 1-3 in full color, set to music, of course:
The different hues of green and blue are simply amazing:
You have to climb up the rocks in the following picture to get off of the beach. If you don't think you can climb these rocks, don't jump in the water.
I'm not sure how I feel about the latte stone railing. While I can appreciate the need to keep people safe, think how beautiful these rocks would be without the metal and concrete.
The kids on Tinian have turned jumping off these rocks into an art form. They pressure each other to jump a little higher, or to throw in a flip, or to get more of a running start.
They obviously don't challenge each other to be more graceful divers. The kid in the previous two pictures performed belly flop after belly flop after belly flop.
If jumping off the cliffs ever gets tiring, you can check out the limestone along the beach. The waves have carved some pretty crazy shapes.

Angelo, I love this video too! One question though....when I click on a link from Beautify CNMI, the web address bar at the top continues to give the Beautify CNMI website. Why?
That makes it impossible for me to send links to other people. They wouldn't know what I wanted them to look at. I want to send my wife a link to some of these "Beautiful Places" you have, but they all come up with the exact same address.
YAY.. I LOVE THIS PLACE,,,LOL
