Asan Invasion Beach, Historic beach in Asan, Guam
The beach stretches between Asan Point and Adelup Point, extending inland to Guam Highway 1, with crystal waters reaching 100 meters to the reef.
On July 21, 1944, the Third Marine Division initiated the liberation of Guam by landing at this beach, facing strong resistance from Japanese forces.
The Liberator's Memorial at Asan Point honors the United States military personnel who participated in the 1944 recapture of Guam.
The War in the Pacific National Historical Park maintains public access points at Asan Point, with educational displays about the World War II events.
The underwater area contains preserved World War II artifacts, including an abandoned Allied landing vehicle resting on the reef floor.
