Barracuda Rock - Guam

★★★★☆ (717)

This dive site is very popular for our local and visiting divers. Located along the Orote peninsula, an occasional barracuda is seen here, but not as frequent as in the past. Depths range from the very shallow to an average depth of 45’ to over 100’, with an average of about 45’.

About a dozen Green Sea Turtles hang out at this site and along the Orote peninsula. White-tip and Black-tip reef sharks are seen on most dives.
