Shark Cove Beach (Guam) is located outside the Dededo settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the coast of the Guam island and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Shark Cove Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The hike to this beach on Guam is unparalleled and is sure to leave you awe-struck. The serenity and tranquility of this beach will leave you spellbound. During low tide, the hike is a breeze and you can spot some rare blue starfish and even a baby black tip reef shark if you're lucky. It's a hidden gem that is often unexplored, so you'll likely have the beach all to yourself."

Lena Rive

"The beach is absolutely stunning, with crystal-clear waters and soft, powdery sand. It's a perfect spot for a peaceful hike, especially during low tide when you can explore the hidden nooks and crannies of the shoreline. This beach is secluded, so you can enjoy the tranquility of nature without any distractions."
