The Territory of Guam is a small island located in Oceania, in the north Pacific Ocean. The island was occupied by Spain until 1898 when Spain ceded control of Guam to the United States (U.S.). In 1941, during World War II, Guam was briefly captured by Japan, but control of the island was quickly reassumed by the Americans in 1944. Today, the island is a self-governing territory of the U.S., administered by the American government. In this presidential democracy, the chief of state is the president of the U.S., while the head of government is the governor of Guam. The people of Guam are American citizens, though they do not have the right to vote in U.S. presidential elections.
Guam’s location in Oceania contributes to its tropical climate. The temperature varies little throughout the year. Precipitation, cyclones, major flooding, and landslides are common in the rainy season (July-December).
The U.S. military occupies approximately one-third of the island’s territory, making Guam an important U.S. military base. The military operations in Guam also play an important role in supporting the island’s economy.
The population of Guam is approximately 162,742 people (2016 estimate) with people from European, Asian, American and indigenous cultures. This cultural diversity, along with the territory’s beautiful island landscapes and climate, is what draws over 1 million tourists to the island each year. On the island of Guam, tourists can find this cultural blend permeating the food, music and the arts, making the island of Guam a unique tourist destination.

Guam中的安全性
人身安全
關島的暴力犯罪率比美國平均低約11.6%，但財產犯罪率卻比美國本土平均高出13.5%。小偷小摸仍然是遊客最常遇到的問題，包括扒手、搶包和車輛竊盜。像杜夢灣這樣的旅遊區巡邏嚴密，但您仍應始終保管好護照和貴重物品。避免將物品無人看管地留在海灘或租車中。 2024年初，杜夢灣發生了兩起涉及遊客的搶劫殺人案，引發了人們的擔憂，導致飯店取消預訂，但暴力犯罪很少影響遊客。大多數暴力事件的當事人彼此認識，針對陌生人的攻擊仍然很少見。
極端暴力
2021年的暴力犯罪與2020年相比下降了5.4%，估計每千人發生3.9起暴力犯罪。 2020年至2021年，謀殺案增加了28.6%，強暴案減少了7.8%，搶劫案減少了42.4%，惡性攻擊案增加了10.8%。 2019年關島記錄了7起兇殺案。毒品相關問題加劇了犯罪模式，三十年來，冰毒一直是島上最常被濫用的非法毒品。這種毒品主要透過郵政服務從菲律賓和其他亞洲國家走私。儘管整體犯罪率仍低於大多數美國城市，但當地人近期對犯罪率上升的擔憂仍然存在。
政治動盪
關島的政治動盪有限。和平抗議活動偶爾發生，通常與美國聯邦政策對該領土的影響有關。 2025年6月，關島在德德多島舉行了首屆「拒絕國王」抗議活動，十多名示威者參與其中，這是美國領土上首次舉辦此類集會。抗議活動的焦點是聯邦投票權、預算削減以及冷戰時期核輻射暴露的賠償。查莫羅原住民群體組織了示威活動，呼籲非殖民化和非軍事化，特別是反對美國的軍事擴張。 2020年，與種族正義相關的和平抗議活動吸引了近100人參與。這些集會保持和平，通常不會擾亂旅遊活動或為遊客帶來安全隱患。
應避免的區域
杜夢灣的旅遊區仍然是開發程度最高、巡邏最強大的地區，儘管2024年初曾發生過兩起引人注目的搶劫案。安德森空軍基地西北端的海灘持續受到羅塔海峽的巨浪和強勁水流的影響，游泳十分危險。里蒂迪安海灘、岡海灘、坦吉森海灘、哈普託海灘、鯊魚洞、阿桑和安德森空軍基地南灘潛水通道都被視為危險區域。由於危險情況，帕加特角、鯊魚洞和鯊魚灣禁止軍事人員進入。二戰遺留的未爆炸彈藥可能在某些區域構成風險，包括海灘、建築工地、農場和潛水點，但這些地方並非總是存在。天黑後，人煙稀少的地區需要格外小心。
