Moving to Guam!

[Pullmyfinger]

I'll be there in March. I'm really looking forward to living there and taking advantage of all the diving opportunities.

Any advice for someone new to Guam?

Thanks,
Mitch

Diver Mitch,
You'll have a blast in Guam, the diving is second to none. The Grotto in Saipan is a must dive, but hit the stairmaster before, its 140 steps down and back in full gear, its well worth the pain.
There are lots of things to do topside, if you want some good info about the island when you get there, stop by Shooter's bar in Hagatna and talk to the owner "Ric", he's been living on Guam 23+ years, he will give you the straight story about Guam. Tell him "Big Jim" sent you.

Congrats, I am jealous! I actually tried to talk my husband into thinking about moving there......no go.

You might want to contact another boardmember, Gilligan, as he was looking into moving there last year. He went and spent a couple of weeks there and got some info on it. I think he decided not to go, but I am sure he can give you the "good and bad" of the island.

Mitch,

Did you scroll down to my post? There you will find 2 links to that take you to pages that discuss the dive sites around Guam and a 3rd link that takes you to the best book written about diving around Guam.

Tokai Maru and the Cormoran are one of the "must do" dives. Diving in Guam is some of the best but is often overlooked for more exotic locations like Palau and Saipan. I lived on Guam and helped rebuild the CATV system after typhoon Omar. I have seen every inch of the island so feel free to ask any questions.
