Discover more about Talo'fo'fo' Falls

Talo'fo'fo' Falls is one of Guam's most visited waterfalls, offering a blend of natural beauty and cultural insights. The falls are a series of scenic cascades on the Ugum River, located inland from Talo'fo'fo' Bay in southeastern Guam. The area is privately owned and features a two-minute cable car ride that takes you down to the waterfall. Once at the bottom, a network of bridges allows you to walk around and enjoy the falls without getting wet. The park also includes a small museum showcasing Guam's history, a convenience store, and a gift shop. A recreation of Sergeant Shoichi Yokoi's cave is also on-site. Yokoi was a Japanese soldier who hid in the jungles of Talo'fo'fo' for 28 years after World War II ended. He was captured in 1972 by local hunters. Historically, the area around Talo'fo'fo' has significance. The original pre-Spanish inhabitants lived along the Talo'fo'fo' and Ugum rivers. Artifacts found in the Talo'fo'fo' Caves suggest they were used as typhoon shelters. Talo'fo'fo' Bay was also a landing point for Japanese forces in 1941.
