Best parks on Guam

Guam is not a large island. You already knew that. What you might not know about is Guam’s wide array of parks all across the island. Guam is one of the most beautiful territories in Oceania, and that’s saying a lot. You could take a weekend to explore all of the coastal sights on Guam, but for now, let’s talk about some parks and beaches you can visit on a day off.

Valley of the Latte Adventure Park 

Change gears a bit and head over to Talofofo for some outdoor excitement. Visitors can go kayaking, cruise on a riverboat, paddle board, hike in the jungle, and go dolphin watching. That all sounds like a pretty perfect way to spend a weekend, doesn’t it? Get out and experience some traditional tropical fun! 

Ypao Beach Park 

Towards the north side of the island, Ypao Beach Park is perfect for picnics and a family-friendly, relaxed day. Open fields work for soccer, the beach is great for laying, and the water is, of course, amazing to take a dip in. Enjoy the hot sun rays and refreshing salt water and pamper yourself. 

We’re spoiled to live on such a beautiful island like Guam. These spots are all perfect for different activities, and there are so many more to choose from!
