Eye's unique facility is the first and only underwater
observatory in Micronesia. Located in the center
of the famous "Piti Bomb Hole", a very
popular dive location, you can see this site's amazingly
diverse and condensed population of marine life.
The observatory structure and pier also provides
a special habitat for fish and other marine life.
This extra living area enhances the diversity of
over 200 fish species with a hiding place similar
to the nearby natural coral reefs.
The boardwalk that leads from shore to observatory
is 1,000 ft long. It crosses a portion of spectacular
Piti bay. You can enjoy the gentle sea breeze and
take in beautiful view. In late afternoon, you can
absorb the beauty of the western sunset. Once at
the observatory, the 360-degree upper deck allows
you to enjoy views of the ocean, the coral reefs,
outer barrier reef and Guam majestic mountains.
The air-conditioned inner vestibule has a selection
of marine art. You can then walk down our spiral
staircase to the lower deck. You are now safely
beneath the sea and can view the ocean world from
24 windows (16 rectangular and 8 round). Here, dry
and comfortable, you will see Piti's amazing marine
life and underwater coral gardens.
Constructed with your safety and comfort in mind,
the finest Japanese shipbuilding technology was
used to make this undersea observatory. The observatory
can withstand the power of a super typhoon. It is
71 ft. high, the size of a seven-story building.
The top 40 feet is above sea level and bottom 31
feet below sea level. It weighs 230 tons! We know
you will not find anything else like it in the Pacific. |
