Cheap Flights to Guam

Guam, the most cosmopolitan destination in Micronesia, makes a fun place to visit for travellers looking for diversion in an active nightlife and high Western population. The city of Tumon is especially lively, as it is a hub for shopping and accommodations for travellers. Not all of Guam is as developed as Tumon, however. Tourists looking for tranquil surroundings venture to the south where it is quieter and relatively more private. One will also see here beaches and water activities, as well as local cultural sites that make the island country offer a well-rounded range of attractions.

Tourists exploring the urban side of Guam will notice a marked support of the United States in the locals. Many Guamanians in Barrigada, for instance, display the U.S. flag in front of their houses. This love for the Americans goes way back when the United States bombed the Japanese army stationed in Guam and fought them off in World War II. The infrastructure development of the island has also contributed to the close ties, as it had raised the standard of living in those areas.

The nightlife in Guam is particularly fun and suitable for everyone, young or old. Tumon is the place to be for travellers out to have fun in the bars and clubs. Live music, lounge singers, and DJs can also be found here including establishments where one can dance the night away. Visiting bands can also be heard in the busy night scene of Tumon. Travellers are advised to check out local newspapers and websites for popular performers in the area. Those with little ones, on the other hand, will have no difficulty in looking for areas to go to. One can also head to Chamorro Village Wednesday Night Market, where both children and adults can check out or buy locally-made products. 

Guam is blessed with a tropical summer climate that lasts throughout the year. This makes the island a suitable destination for travellers looking to bask in the sun and play in the surf. One can snorkel, fish, swim, or cruise around the various nature sights in the coast. The Guam Zoological, Botanical, and Marine Gardens are also a delight to discover. Travellers can enjoy a peaceful walk throughout this area abundant with native tropical foliage. The zoo is also an attraction, as it has various types of wildlife in display.

Travellers looking for historical and cultural sites will also find plenty to visit starting with the World War II sites. There are underwater shipwrecks, intact weapons shelters, and solemn memorials for Japanese and U.S. soldiers to see. One will also find here the sites of Tinta and Faha massacre where more than 40 Chamorro men and women died in the war, as well as the Pacific Theatre of World War II in the National Park Service.

Buses are the only mode of public transport available in Guam. The Guam Mass Transit Authority operates a limited system where the most frequented routes are from Hagatha to Tamuning, as well as Tumon Bay and the Micronesia Mall, among others. Travellers can also rent a car at the airport or enquire at some of the hotels in the area.
