Lau Lau Beach
One of Saipan's most visited and largest reefs, a beginner-friendly shore dive with an easy beach entry and a rope guiding to the main area; maximum about 20 m. Look for turtles, large trevally schools, nudibranchs, stonefish, garden eels and an old WWII pipe that is now a coral-covered alley. Good for night dives with bioluminescent plankton.
