Talofofo

Talofofo is the river valley of southern Guam, where the island's longest river runs down to a bay with a black sand beach and a surf break at its mouth. Talofofo Falls sits upstream in a private park reached by cable car, with a two tier waterfall, a lookout tower and the cave where a Japanese soldier hid for twenty eight years after the war, unaware it had ended. Boats and kayaks go up the river through the bamboo. The valley also holds latte stone sites and, on the ridge above, the island's golf courses.
