Mochong Latte Site

Mochong

One of the largest ancient Chamorro village sites in the Mariana Islands, with multiple latte stone pillar groups scattered through seaside jungle.

Mochong lies on Rota's northeast coast and is one of the largest known ancient Chamorro village sites in the Marianas. Dozens of latte stone pillar bases are preserved in the jungle beside Mochong Beach. The site is listed on the US National Register of Historic Places, but it is unmanaged and the signs are not obvious, so it is best to go with a local guide. Never move the stones.
