The fact that Gorontalo Province lies between Sulawesi Sea and Tomini Bay has undoubtedly resulted in its having abundant underwater tourist spots. However, the insufficient availability of fund has led to poor management of those spots. Given the insufficient fund the government has, it is important to give priority to certain spots. This study aims to determine the developmental priority of underwater tourism spots in Gorontalo using Analitycal Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Simple Additive Weighted (SAW). These methods use five criteria and 28 alternatives in determining the best priority in development of underwater tourism spots in Gorontalo Province. The result of AHP and SAW calculation showed that the best spot should be prioritized to be developed is Pulo Cinta whose score is 0,9888. This decision making method will help government, who has the final say in the issue, give priority to the best spot to be developed. Intisari-Potensi wisata bawah laut yang ada di Provinsi Gorontalo sangatlah melimpah, mengingat letak Provinsi Gorontalo yaitu di antara Laut Sulawesi dan Teluk Tomini. Keterbatasan dana menyebabkan banyak aset yang berpotensi ini menjadi tidak terkelola dengan baik. Karena kurangnya dana tersebut, penentuan prioritas lokasi wisata bawah laut yang akan dikembangkan sangat diperlukan. Makalah ini bertujuan untuk menetukan prioritas lokasi wisata bawah laut di Provinsi Gorontalo yang akan dikembangkan, menggunakan kombinasi metode Hierarchy Process (AHP) dan Simple Additive Weighted (SAW). Metode ini menggunakan lima kriteria dan 28 alternatif dalam menentukan prioritas terbaik pengembangan lokasi wisata bawah laut di Provinsi Gorontalo. Hasil dari perhitungan AHP dan SAW menunjukkan bahwa kawasan terbaik yang menjadi prioritas untuk dikembangkan adalah Pulo Cinta dengan total skor 0,9888. Sistem pengambil keputusan ini hanya membantu pengambil keputusan atau pemerintah dalam menentukan lokasi wisata bawah laut terbaik yang akan dikembangkan, meskipun keputusan akhirnya terletak pada kebijakan pengambil keputusan.
