Gun Beach

Gun Beach (Gongna Beach)

A beach at the northern end of Tumon Bay with Japanese coastal guns from World War II. It is well known for snorkeling and sunsets.

Gun Beach (Chamorro: Gongna) is located at the northern end of Tumon Bay, at the foot of Lover's Leap cliff. It takes its name from the Japanese coastal guns from World War II that remain beneath the cliff beside the sand. The gun emplacements and bunker ruins can be seen free of charge. The water inside the reef is clear, and snorkelers can see coral and schools of fish. However, the outer edge of the reef has strong waves and currents, so never go beyond the reef. The bar on the beach is one of the most popular sunset spots in Tumon Bay, and live music and Chamorro dance performances are often held in the evening. Admission is free, and it is a short walk from hotels in northern Tumon Bay.
