the aroma of freshly cooked local foods emanates from small booths where
cooks stir steaming pots of seafood.
Tumon
Bay: Many
of Guam's most elegant hotels, bars and grills are situated on the strip
of white sand bordering the sparkling aqua waters of Tumon Bay. Guam's
favorite playground is bordered at both ends by towering green cliffs.
There are a number of public parks and beaches to explore along Tumon
Bay, as well numerous shops for you to go shopping.
There
are a number of small islands off the coastal waters of Guam, the most
notable of these being Cocos Island. Remaining islands are much more
smaller than Cocos island. Many islands make for some excellent diving
spots to see tropical fish.
Hagåtña,
formerly English Agana and in Spanish Agaña, is the capital of the United
States territory of Guam. It is the island's second smallest village in
both area and population. From the 18th through mid 20th century, it was
Guam's population center. Today, it remains one of the island's major
commercial districts in addition to being the seat of government.
