Guam What to Pack

"Paddle Lock" to lock your love forever!

by Travel2write

If coming to guam, plan to visit "Two Lover Point". When there, you will have an opportunity to place a paddle lock on the fence overlooking the ocean. Many have come and placed there names and dates they visited with quint devotions of love! Some even had them inscibed. You will also need a sharpie to write on the lock. Recommend you come with your favorite sandles. If you need to buy new ones here, you don't want to break in the new footwear walking the strip. You can get anything on the island, but best to be prepared.1. Sunblock, nothing ruins a vacation more than a sun burn.2 Bug spray if going up to the waterfalls or any hiking. Electronics are not a great deal, so bring your own camera and film if required. You may pay more for it here.

You'll probably have to go through customs to get here. You will if your coming/going to/from the United States. So make sure to check some kind of updated website to check on how to properly pack to get through customs safely, and as quickly as possible... if that is possible. you'll want to bring plenty of warm weather clothing. Guam is a tropical island ~ warm and very humid all year round. You may want to bring rain gear as it does rain frequently. Zorries (thongs) shoes are popular to wear by the beach or for just walking around casually. If you plan to go boonie stomping you'll want to wear some kind of hiking or tennis shoe that you don't mind getting muddy! don't wear sandals or zorries to go hiking in the jungle~if want to do this .. just go barefoot! ... TAKE A MACHETE with you ON ALL BOONIE STOMPS OR JUNGLE TREKKING.Don't forget your scuba gear if your diving... orrrr check...

Reef Shoes are a must

by bmiller39

Packing for Guam is easy..It is very hot so a few shirts and shorts will fit the bill. You should bring or purchase a pair of reef shoes for walking on the beaches or in the water. They can be found for 5 to 30 dollars in various qualities Comfortable shoes and expect daily rain.. normal items bring a camera most is available. Scuba rental equipment is very inexpensive.

Since I was on the island for a week-long business trip & just came from a week in Japan, I had one medium sized suitcase filled with clothes for both climates. (Japan was 20-30 degress colder than Guam!) Tropical weight clothing...sandals or another comfortable walking shoe are a 'must', running or hiking shoes for the adventurous. Running/jogging is probably the best way to see any area! If you forget anything non-prescriptive, there are a number of drugstores within 15 minutes of anywhere. For the birdlovers, a camera w/high speed film is highly suggested ...there are very few birds around, so when you see one, snap away!There are tons of lovely flora around for the botanists out there. You can rent pretty much anything for the outdoors on the island.

Bikini if you use one or anything else to go in the water, shorts comfortable shirts it gets really hot sometimes, shoes to use inside the water (very important) sunblock or oil, comfortable shoes and sandals. They have everything!!

Nearly every day on Guam is sunny and in the mid 80's so be prepared for it. Lots of time is usually spent at the beach, T-shirts and shorts are accepted pretty much everywhere. Even evenings out rarely ever get anything more than buisiness casual here, it's a laid back island life so throw away the ties. As far as shoes go sandles, and some tennis shoes should get you everywhere you need to go. You can find most every major brand when you get here, medical kits should have plenty of sunscreen and sunburn relief, and some pepto in case the food doesn't agree with you. Read the papers and look for signs, sometimes beaches are closed due to contamination, especially on the tourist side of the island. Best chance is to get OUT of the tourist area and find other beaches, there are some beautiful ones down south. Camping is allowed at certain places, but check with the visitors bereau....
