Just 30 miles long and less than 9 miles wide, Guam is
the largest of Micronesia's islands. Guam is also America's gateway to the West Pacific and Asia, and is a booming international
resort destination.
Guam's dramatic coastline and white sand beaches are ringed
by coral reefs and clear, crystalline waters teeming with exotic marine life and blessed by a balmy tropical climate and gentle
trade winds.
Guam's natural beauty, the luxurious high-rise hotel and
resort complexes that dominate the beach front at Tumon and Agana, the surrounding restaurants, malls, golf courses, water
sports and entertainment facilities combine to create a perfect playground for visitors.
Three hundred varieties of coral make Guam a diver's delight.
Whales, dolphins, mantas and skip jacks are just some of the sea life seen offshore. Popular wreck dives include a World War
II Japanese "Zero", a U.S. tanker and a World War I German cruiser. The waters at Asan Beach contain several pieces of submerged
military equipment embedded in the colorful coral reefs.
