This hike (Cetti 7) was awesome. It's a short loop, but due to the descent and ascent it is slow going.
Assume 20 - 40 minutes going down for a decent sized group, based upon people's comfort going down loose terrain. The trail isn't particularly marked for this, or any, portion as it just would get washed away. But there are clear pathways toward the end of the descent into the creek area.
Once you get to the creek (approximately .3 miles in) you have the creek to guide you. Walk upstream, climbing waterfalls as you go. Eventually a small side stream connects onto the open creek area (after about .5 miles and 7-11 waterfalls) and you take that left and make a final ascent up to the main road where you can then walk back to the parking area.
This is a phenomenal hike, but there are mentally taxing/intimidating portions so you have to be up for an adventure if you go. It is definitely achievable, but you have to be fully committed and not let fear hold you back.
Note: Waterfall "1" has a side trail, but waterfall "2" requires climbing up using the rope. The most difficult part is being brave enough to step into the water while climbing the rope, though physically...
Read morePhenomenal! Some shade from the sun is afforded by trees on the path up to the highest lookout point but none up there. LOTS of steep stairs, narrow for passing opposing foot traffic or when you are stuck behind a slower person, but worth it when you climb to the top and take in that view. There is a lower lookout covered by a concrete pavilion with a couple of benches. This lower spot has an AMAZING view, especially if your group has those who cannot climb to the top. The lower area just doesn't offer the nearly 360° sight line like being perched atop the cliff does. It was a little crowded which wouldn't be too bad except for the fact that everyone was posing for pictures. It made me feel like I was always getting in someone's way. It was free, it was easy to find, and it was gorgeous. There are no bathrooms and only a small amount of roadside parking but I would definitely...
Read moreA breathtaking view for all generations. We visited Cetti Bay Overlook as a three-generation family, and it was truly a highlight of our trip to Guam. The panoramic view of the lush mountains and the deep blue bay was absolutely stunning. The area is easily accessible and safe, even for young children and elderly family members. The breeze was refreshing, and the lookout point offered plenty of space for taking beautiful photos. A short stop, but one that left a lasting impression. Highly recommended for families and nature...
