Ancient Chamorro society revolved heavily around agriculture. The Chamorros created a 13-month calendar based on moon cycles to track the changing seasons. This allowed them to know precisely when to begin planting or harvesting certain crops each year.

Note: The tour is over 2+ miles long per tour, with more than 25+ audio stories per tour, and takes about 1-2 hours per tour to complete.

This is one of Guam's most poopular attractions for good reason. A balcony juts out over a dramatic drop to the ocean below, affording visitors breathtaking views of the coastline. This point is also deeply rooted in the history of the indigenous Chamorro people and gets its name from an ancient legend you'll hear when you visit.

3

This simple, unassuming monument commemorates a hugely significant moment in World War II: The final mission of the war. An American bombing run was launched from Guam, and on their way back the bombers learned via radio that Japan had surrendered, finally ending the years-long war.

4

Ritidian Point is the northernmost point of Guam. The vista here is one of the best on the entire island, so make sure you have your camera! While you take in the views, you'll also hear about some of the island's most incredible wildlife.

5

Folks looking to hit the links can't do much better than this! Designed by world-famous golf course architect Robin Nelson and featuring sweeping, panoramic views of the ocean, Onward Mangilao Golf Course has been named one of the top 100 golf courses in the entire world.

6

Another great place to admire the Pacific while practicing your swing. This 18-hole golf course is dotted with coconut trees and feels like a little slice of paradise. It's also one of the oldest on the entire island.

7

These natural falls are not only beautiful, but they’re also great for more adventurous sorts looking to do some cannonballs! At their highest point, the falls reach about 25 feet. Not too daunting but great for a bit of adrenaline.

8

Inajaran Natural Pool is an absolute must-see. The rocky, natural saltwater pool is fully sheltered from the ocean waves, so it's full of colorful fish flitting around the reefs!

9

This bell tower dates back to the early 1900s and holds massive significance for the local community. It nearly collapsed from erosion in the early 2000s, but was repaired and refurbished and now is as sturdy as ever.

10

This somber ruin, known in English as Our Lady of Solitude Fort, was built by the Spanish to protect galleons coming into the bay with goods. Rumors of buried treasure have long circled the structure, but no one has ever found so much as a single doubloon.

11

Believe it or not, it’s true! Although it gets there by cheating a little. You see, the vast majority of Mount Lamlam is underwater. In fact, it stretches all the way down to the bottom of the Mariana Trench, the lowest known point in the entire ocean. At its lowest point, the Mariana Trench is over 36,000 feet deep. So this is TECHNICALLY the world’s tallest mountain, standing at almost 38,000 ft. Everest is only 29,000 ft! And now you have some fun trivia to keep in your back pocket.

12

This overlook also boasts a hiking trail down to Stella Bay. It's about a 45-minute walk, but near the end, you'll also find an old Spanish bridge that makes for some great photos.

13

These three monstrous 140mm cannons were set up by the Japanese military to defend against an American assault on the island. Today, they're still remarkably intact, though the ever-encroaching jungle has lent them the appearance of having been long, long forgotten.

14

“Latte” is a Chamorro word for structures comprised of stone pillars with a cup-shaped stone on top. This enormous cement tower offers great views in all directions, and functions as a Guam equivalent to New York's Statue of Liberty.

15

Those looking to dive deeper into Guam's role during the second World War will find lots to like in this compact and fascinating museum. Perhaps just as interesting as its many exhibits are the fact that this museum was built and filled not by the government but by one individual!

16

This beautiful plaza was originally home to the Spanish Governor’s Palace during Spain’s occupation. Over the years, it has traded hands more than a few times but remains just as picturesque as ever.

17

This cathedral dates all the way back to 1669! It has been destroyed and rebuilt numerous times over the centuries, and remains today as an important part of Guam's capital.
