Busena Marine Park Adventures

Busena Marine Park is located on the western coast of Guam in the United States territory of the Mariana Islands. The park encompasses a protected marine area known for its extensive coral reefs, tropical fish species, and underwater biodiversity. It covers a portion of the coastline near Tumon Bay, a popular beach and tourist destination. Boasting crystal-clear waters, the park provides excellent opportunities for snorkeling, diving, and underwater photography, allowing visitors to explore healthy coral gardens and swim alongside vibrant reef fish and sea turtles. The park also features a man-made underwater observatory, accessible via a short walkway, giving visitors a unique below-surface viewing experience without getting wet. This feature increases the park's appeal to families and those less comfortable with snorkeling or diving. Busena Marine Park plays a crucial role in conserving Guam’s fragile coral reef ecosystems which are threatened by coastal development and climate change. Its ecological importance extends to fishery protection and maintaining biodiversity. The surrounding area includes resort amenities and public beach access points, making it a convenient day-trip destination. Visitors appreciate both the natural marine environment and recreational facilities, including picnic areas and easy shoreline access. The park's history is tied closely to Guam's maritime culture and efforts to promote environmental stewardship. Through education programs and conservation initiatives, Busena Marine Park helps raise awareness about marine protection in the region.
