The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive early at Hilton beachside
Plan to be at the Guam Adventures office at least 15 minutes before start time to check in and get fitted for gear.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Apply biodegradable sunscreen before arrival to protect corals and avoid oily residue on snorkeling gear.
Wear water shoes with grip
Traction helps on slippery launch points and while walking over reef flats during snorkeling.
Know health restrictions
Not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with serious back or heart conditions; disclose health issues when booking.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Two Lovers Point (Puntan Dos Amantes) for cliff views of the bay
- •Gab Gab Beach for quieter snorkeling and shallow reef access
Wildlife
- •Hawksbill or green sea turtles
- •Parrotfish and colorful reef fish (e.g., angelfish, butterflyfish)
Conservation Note
The reef is vulnerable to sunscreen oils and anchor damage—use reef-safe products, avoid touching coral, and follow guide instructions to minimize impact.
Tumon Bay and Guam have long been central to Chamorro life; later Spanish and American presences altered settlement patterns and coastal use, while WWII left visible historic sites around the island.
