  • One of our sunset cruise boats out on the Saipan Lagoon.
  • Local kids playing at Microbeach. Readiness Ship (full of U.S. military equipment and ready to ship out at a moment's notice) on the horizon.
  • Microbeach with dinner cruise boat on the horizon.
  • Local photographer getting the snap of local kids. 3 readiness ships in the distance.
  • Sunrise from Bird Island Overlook.
  • Bird Island in the early morning sun.
  • 45-photo panorama of Bird Island area. There are some funky distortions here, and the sky looks a bit odd over toward the sun, but there is lots of detail here (feel free to hover your cursor over the photo and click on "Original" in the pop-out menu. This will bring it up to full size. You'll need to use the scroll bars to your right and at the bottom of your screen to navigate).
  • And now a stop in the Grotto for some medium-long exposure shots.
  • Local dive instructor and his student on "Penguin Rock."
  • About ready to leap into the water. Notice the glow of the water upper-left. There is an underwater tunnel there which allows divers access to the open water. In the morning it creates this beautiful appearance due to the sun shining in through the southeast-facing tunnel.
  • Diver instructor and diver in water.
