Deryielle finally jumped. @ SAIPAN GROTTO

Saipan Grotto is the most popular spot for Scuba Diving. There are no facilities here, other than a solar-powered emergency phone and a well-paved road. However, this is Saipan's BEST dive, and most unique, by far. Access to the dive site is by going down 115 from the very top steps into a natural, well-lit cave. (I've got your attention already, haven't I !) From the bottom of the staircase, step over a narrow but fast stream onto a large, teetering rock. Do a giant stride entry, and you will be in 15' deep water facing a 70' deep cavern with 3 separate, brilliantly lit underwater exits. SCUBA out, and you'll always see barracuda & a white tip shark, with frequent visits by napoleon wrasses, rays, and a host of other animals. If you're exceptionally good on air conservation, SCUBA left at 45', and you'll discover "the Bat Cave", a cave entirely underwater & as large as The Grotto. 2 sharks, bubble corals, glowing-eyed cave fishes and pink lace cave corals lie within. Safe for snorkelers within the Grotto, but only a very foolish person would snorkel outside, as re-entry is nearly impossible if you're stuck at the surface. Sound scary right?

My name is Deryielle Sablan from SAIPAN NORTHERN MARIANA ISLAND. Grotto is one of my favorite spot here in SAIPAN. This is where my family and i used to spend so much time during the weekend when i was a kid. Grotto is the place where i officially learned how to swim. My dad and my cousin swing me over the water, by holding up my two legs and my arms. I had to swim...and i learn. Until then, i became a good swimmer and won all 1st place for all my swimming competitions.

About my video experienced.
All i can say is...it's one of the most complicated dream accomplished. I've always wanted to come back and jump again and take a video this time. I am more than happy just able to watch myself on video jumping off that high jump. I was so scared but i cant look back now, right? I have to keep moving forward and take my time to get to where i wanna be. That's the only way i can make my dream come true. All i was thinking in my head at this moment was....."Pls GOD keep me safe and let me do this one more time". LOL! My leg's were shaking so fast and i can't control them. But the time has come and on three..............i jumped with joy and happiness!!!! And that's all i need to fulfill my body and soul. Thank GOD i am still living in this world!
