Where to Take the Plunge: Adrenaline Junkies and GoPros Only

The higher the climb, the better the view and the better the jump.

Take a Hike to 1,001 Steps

Catch the backside of a sunset or rise early and (hope to) sight dolphins at this peaceful and picturesque cliff in Mangilao.

 

Off the Beaten Path: The Trails of Ritidian Beach

Ritidian Point may be famed for its powdery, white sand and jeweled waters, but beyond the splendors of its shoreline lies much to see. The beach itself is just the ornamental fringe of the 1,203-acre Guam National Wildlife Refuge, home of Marianas fruit bats, crows, and tree snails, plus significant remnants of ancient Chamorro culture.

 

Hike to Hidden Ague Cove

Ague Cove is a hidden gem in Guam’s suburban village of Dededo. Find the old FAA housing area, park, and walk a quarter of a mile to the trailhead.

 

Take a Trek to Pagat Caves

The Chamorro village of Pagat existed on the shelf overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Evidence to date indicates the site was occupied from before Christ to sometime after 1700. There are few artifacts of the early Chamorro village that existed there. We were “stomping” to the caves simply to explore and take a refreshing dip in the pools.
