Talofofo Bay

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.  The bay is bordered on both sides by cliffs, and consists of a dark-brown sand beach at the end of the bay.  Many people mistake the brown sand for mud, but in reality it is really fine
grained sand making it feel and appear like mud.  For a scenic and picturesque view of Talofofo Bay there is an excellent lookout point on the northern cliff of Talofofo Bay where visitors can park their car and take some pictures of the entire bay.
During World War II a Japanese vessel named the Aratama Maru was torpedoed by an American vessel in Talofofo Bay and remained visible for 15 years in the
Mouth of Talofofo Bay
Talofofo Bay Guam bay, but today has been completely submerged due to current surges and storms throughout the years, specifically when Super Typhoon Karen hit Guam in 1962.  Today, the location of the sunken Japanese vessel is a popular diving spot with an abundance of sea life and activity.
At the end of Talofofo Bay is the mouth of the Talofofo River which flows under the Talofofo Bridge.
Under the Talofofo Bridge is an area that acts like quicksand, which is never more than waist deep, where the local kids like to play.  If visitors take the turn next to the bridge following the Talofofo River they can catch a boat and take a river cruise up the Talofofo River into the valley.
