Piti Bomb Holes Marine Preserve

The preserve contains natural percolation pits in the reef flat, reaching depths between 25 to 30 feet where fresh water filters into the shallow lagoon.

The area became a marine protected zone in 1999, leading to a documented increase of fish populations exceeding 100 percent within the preservation boundaries.

The waters of Piti Bay hold deep connections to local fishing traditions, though current regulations maintain strict protection measures to ensure marine life sustainability.

Visitors can access the underwater observatory at Fish Eye Marine Park, descending 30 feet below surface level to observe marine life through viewing windows.

Guam's first coral nursery started operations in this preserve during 2013, implementing restoration structures to support coral fertilization and reproduction.
