The 10 Best Boat Tours & Water Sports in Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands

November 27, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Many choose the Micronesian volcanic island of Saipan to tour the famous Grotto, an underwater limestone cavern plummeting seventy feet at its deepest point. The Grotto is home to a city of sea life, including turtles, coral, and reef sharks.  Land-lovers can find satisfaction in the Garapan Street market, a display of Saipan's unique food and craft tradition, or the World War II battlefields, a visual history of the Battle of Saipan.

Axe Murderer Dive Tours

I am taking a different approach to dive getaways. I do not like groups and will do everything I can to avoid them. Private guiding & instruction offers a much, much better experience for the customer and I want you to have the ultimate experience. I offer hotel pick up and drop off for my customers. I offer a full range of scuba certifications from Discover Dive through Divemaster and everything in between. I am also a very experienced dive guide with over 15,000 dives on Saipan. I typically book up in advance, so if you want to dive with me, please make reservations ahead of time. We have also added 3 bedrooms, a bathroom, full kitchen, free laundry facilities, a big back deck with 8 seat table and an 8 person jacuzzi. I offer free airport pick up if you stay with us, free breakfast each morning & unlimited jacuzzi time. I have created what I would consider the ultimate dive experience & stay, it is what I would want if I were the customer.

Saipan Submarine offers a chance to explore the underwater world of the Tanapag Lagoon. There you will have the opportunity to view and photograph dozens of species of tropical fish and a wide variety of corals. Our Coast Guard certified submarine "Deepstar" takes you through towering "coral gardens" and across open sandy areas where sea turtles, stingrays, and sharks often swim alongside. Each seat is situated comfortably in front of extra-large viewports ideal for photographing the WWII shipwreck and plane wreck we explore as part of the 40-minute tour. An on-board narration in multiple languages helps to explain each feature we see. From our dock, spacious transfer vessels carry you to and from the submarine, waiting just a few minutes from the Saipan Submarine home base. Our helpful crew will assist you at every step, insuring a safe and enjoyable family friendly experience.
