Talofofo Falls Park
Most of Guam’s waterfalls aren’t easy to access with small children in tow. However, Talofofo Falls Park is a great excursion that is kid-friendly too. While you are there you will lay your eyes on two majestic waterfalls that are sure to dazzle even your youngest ones. Make sure you also visit the funhouse and children’s rides—there’s even a museum!
UnderWater World
What child doesn’t love sea creatures? At UnderWater World, kids can learn about and see the animals of the ocean in exhibits that feature dolphins, sharks, and jellyfish. Discounts are available for those in the military, so bring your ID if applicable.
Family Adventure Tours
The entire family can enjoy Guam’s gorgeous waters and see firsthand Guam’s wildlife and native habitats. Snorkeling in Guam is something you will never forget, as colorful tropical fish and coral reefs are in abundance just below the water’s surface. Tour companies offer snorkeling trips so you and the kids can view the clear waters and wildlife with your very own eyes. If that’s not for you, try dolphin watching or take an unforgettable jungle cruise down the river.
Natural Pools
The Inarajan Pools are remarkable natural features on the island that provide plenty to keep kids and parents entertained. The coral-formation landscape is stunning and the naturally formed saltwater pools are serene. Children will enjoy splashing in the shallow pools and teens will love jumping off the lifeguard tower.
Chamarro Village
Wednesday is family fun night at Chamorro Village. Kids and adults alike will enjoy the food, dancing and carabao rides that blend the ancient and contemporary cultures of the island. It does get crowded, so it is best to plan to arrive prior to 6 p.m.
Playport
If the sun is too hot or it is a rainy day, head to the indoor playground located at the Agana Shopping Center. There are places to run, climb, jump, and slide at Playport. It’s a great place to get together with friends new and old and let the kids burn off some steam in a safe environment. Before heading home, take a walk to Yogurtland for a cool treat.
Guam is a place that offers fun for the entire family, no matter how young or old. Enjoy your family time with a variety of activities and your kids will be talking about the trip for years to come.
