As Guam celebrates Mes CHamoru, there’s no better place to experience the island’s culture, history, and natural beauty than one of its most iconic destinations — Valley of the Latte.

From the moment visitors arrive, the journey begins — deep in the lush jungles of Southern Guam, where centuries of CHamoru heritage come to life. At the valley of the Latte Adventure Park, guests travel along the Talo’fo’fo River, surrounded by towering trees and the sounds of nature — discovering a place where history and culture meet adventure. The eco-tourism destination offers an immersive look at Guam’s past — with cultural demonstrations, traditional CHamoru practices, and exhibits that highlight more than 4,000 years of island history.

Visitors can explore ancient latte stone sites, learn about traditional customs such as the hotnu oven, and take part in cultural workshops like coconut leaf weaving that celebrate the island’s living heritage. For those looking for adventure, there are riverboat cruises, kayaking, paddleboarding, and hiking experiences — all set against the valley’s breathtaking tropical landscape.

But during Mes CHamoru, the experience becomes even more meaningful — as families, visitors, and residents alike reconnect with the traditions, stories, and spirit of the chamoru people. Whether you’re exploring Guam for the first time — or rediscovering your roots — the Valley of the Latte offers a journey through culture, nature, and time.

And during Mes CHamoru, organizers say it’s the perfect place for families and friends to come together — and experience the heart of Guam’s heritage.
