Naval Base Guam, Naval base in Piti Municipality, Guam.
Naval Base Guam is a United States Navy installation at Apra Harbor in Piti Municipality on the island of Guam. The facility includes piers for warships, maintenance workshops, administrative buildings, and housing areas for military personnel.
The facility grew into a major hub for the United States Pacific Fleet after World War II. During the Cold War, it served as a forward post for monitoring Soviet naval movements in the western Pacific.
Military personnel at Naval Base Guam participate in local Liberation Day celebrations, connecting service members with Guam's Chamorro heritage through annual events.
Access to the installation is restricted to authorized personnel and their dependents. Visitors must arrange clearance in advance and present valid identification documents to pass through security checkpoints.
The facility sits roughly 5,300 kilometers west of Hawaii and about 2,400 kilometers east of the Philippines. It allows rapid response times for naval operations between Asia and the American mainland.
