Water sports are, without a doubt, Guam’s finest offering. Located at the edge of the Marianas Trench, Guam is renowned for its vivid turquoise lagoons, deep sea currents and water clarity. Between December and May, visibility is as much as 150 feet. During the wet season, visibility is as great as 60 feet. The average water temperature is 85°F (27°C) year-round.
The sunny climate and the waves of the Pacific Ocean offer ideal conditions for surfing on Guam. The majority of the surf areas are suitable for experienced surfers, but there are surf spots for all abilities. Here are several popular surfing spot in Guam:
Boat Basin Left
This is probably one of the best and most visible spots on Guam. The left at the harbor entrance is the main surf spot, although there is a ledgy right on the other side of the harbor that is ridden mostly by bodyboarders. The left is reminiscent of Ala Moana, although shorter and not quite as hollow, and is one of the few spots on the island that can hold size. Consequently it is popular with the locals, who tend to commandeer the small takeoff zone when conditions are good. The harbor has been known to be polluted so watch out after rain and if you have open cuts.
Talofofo Bay
Located on the southeast coast of Guam, Talofofo Bay is a popular surfing spot which provides some of the best waves on Guam when the conditions are right. The surf spot is also referred to as “Surf Side” by the local people. Talofofo Bay is notable for being one of the most accessible brown sand beaches of Guam. This brown sand is the deposition from silt and sand from the Talofofo River, which provides a strong visual contrast from the white sand composed of ground coralline limestone found on most of the island. You can surf everyday here. There is the Ocean break that gets big and has dangerous reef. The Ocean wave rolls into the bay and it breaks perfect into the bay
Meritzo
Meritzo consists of two breaks. There is a right on the right side of the boat channel that has a slow rolling shoulder that sometimes connects to another section inside. This spot gets better with size, and can hold large waves due to the width and depth of the channel. Across the channel, and considerably farther from the shore, is a lesser surfed left. The left is hollower and faster than the right but is also shorter and ends up on shallow reef. The left can also hold size but has strong currents pushing down the reefline during big swells.
