The characters from Saipan's popular diving spot Objan Beach are back!

Thanks to the efforts of four Japanese volunteer diving instructors, Objan's famous underwater stone writing has been revived!
They made new underwater stone letters from scratch that had been blown away by the recent typhoon.
It's difficult just to collect a certain number of stones of the right size on the ocean floor, but it's also difficult to place stones one by one in flowing water to form letters. Anyway, my head is down.

Beautiful stone writing on the white sandy sea floor. It is a great photo spot, so if you are going diving in Saipan, please enjoy diving at Objan Beach.
