EasyTicket The Grotto
📍 Northern Mariana Islands (U.S. territory) Saipan 북부
The Grotto is a limestone sea-cave spot in northern Saipan. When you go down the stairs, you can see clear blue water connected to the sea, leaving a strong impression even if you do not dive.
Sea conditions and the stair access can be variables, though. If your plan involves entering the water, be sure to check the safety conditions and whether a guide is required.

Useful tips
- The stairs are long and may be wet, so non-slip shoes are better than sandals.
- On days with high waves or poor visibility, be ready to stay out of the water.
- Even if you are only going for photos, allow plenty of time to get from the parking lot, down the stairs, and back.
- If you are going to dive, check certification, equipment, and guide requirements separately through the operator's official information.
Frequently asked questions
Is The Grotto a good stop to include on a northern Saipan route?
The Grotto is on Saipan's northern coast, so it fits naturally into a northern-area route by rental car or tour vehicle. From accommodations in Garapan or the south, it is some distance away, so plan extra time for the trip.
Can families traveling with children visit The Grotto?
If you are only looking around from the overlook without entering the water, families can visit too. There are stairs and rocky terrain, though, so if you are with young children or someone with limited mobility, decide whether to go only within a comfortable limit.
