 Welcome to diving on Guam. To most divers all over the world Guam is a complete unknown, and truthfully, we like it that way. We are terribly spoiled. Our sea conditions are almost always calm and almost all of the dive sites are never more than 30 min away. Most of them are much closer. Oh yeah, our water temperatures are always above 81°. Guam has over 75 different dive sites for both beach (over reef walk in divers) and boat diving. Almost all of the diving is done on the western side due to the prevailing easterly trade winds. I've divided Guam into 3 different areas based upon their geographical location. Please pick the dive sites you'd like to look at. Each site features a detailed description, GPS readings, along with pictures and video.

DID YOU KNOW? That a complete WW2 Japanese Zero was found behind George Washington School? That a huge ocean liner drifted into Apra Harbor and sunk? That there's a cave that starts in the ocean and comes out in the jungle? That there was a mannequin inside a Japnese zero fighter in Umatac? That there is another shipwreck on the east side of Guam? That there's still a ship in the harbor that hasn't been found yet? |
