A Cliff Legend Above Tumon Bay

Two Lovers Point, or Puntan Dos Amantes, is a limestone cliff more than 100 m high on Guam's northwest coast, overlooking Tumon Bay. Guam is the largest of the Mariana Islands and has been a US territory since 1898.

The legend is set in Spanish colonial times. A Chamorro family's daughter was promised by her father to a Spanish captain, but she loved a young Chamorro man. Pursued to the cliff, the lovers tied their long hair together and leapt into the sea, choosing to stay together forever.

The Chamorro have lived on Guam for thousands of years, and their latte stones, pillars that once held up houses, remain a symbol of the island. Today an observation deck juts from the cliff, couples hang love locks there, and views stretch over reefs and the bay.
