This is a gorgeous beach with a nice sandy area to lay out as well as shaded areas for small children or babies. The water is breathtaking and stunningly gorgeous. There’s a lot of shells and pieces of coral. Would Definitely recommend water shoes. The snorkeling here is also very good and the water very clear. The parking is only open til 6 pm. Have been a couple times already this stay and planning a third.

I'm not a water person, but Ypao Beach park is a nice place to watch the ocean. Food and activities, other than swimming, are bring your own. Chronic dysfunctional restrooms which can be a bummer.

This is a good park to visit cause you have the beach and easy snorkeling, showers to rinse off, some shade because of the trees and a play park in the back ground for the younger kids

Right in the heart of hotel area, easy road, plenty of parking. Deep enough to swim even at low tide. Life guard! See pictures. I like morning, lots of shade and less crowded.

If you're looking for a relaxing day at the beach and a place to cool off with a swim in the ocean, Ypao is a great place to do it. The beach is clean and so is the water. And the water isn't even that cold. Perfect for swimming or just floating along. There is a pretty strong current though, so just keep that in mind while you're out swimming.

It is such a beautiful spot and one hears all of the "Keep Guam beautiful". My question is Why don't you? As a public beach is everybody's responsibility to keep it pristine.
Why is it necessary to trash the surroundings? Tje coral is so delicate and the fish so colorful and it is public. Pleaase community, help keep IPAO beach the beach the Visitor Bureau is talking about.

The nicest public beach in the busy Tumon area, it is well worth a visit. Great option for stand up paddle and snorkeling.

This is a great place to see coral and lots of fish. Time it correctly on peak high tide, swim 100m from shore to the coral heads and you will experience what you see on National Geographic shows about corals.

How much to pay for a permit and if I want to reserve 3 pavilions for a single day, how much do I have to pay?
Eric

The permit fee for a pavilion is around $5, which is invested into keeping the park clean. There might be a refundable deposit as well to ensure that the pavilion is cleaned up after use.

The ABC stores have snorkels that range from 10 USD all the way up to 40 USD. I bought my son one for 20 and it works fine. There are also several other shops in the area that sell snorkel, SCUBA, and surfing items.

Do we have to pay a fee to enter the park/use the facilities? Do you recommend we bring our own snorkeling gear?
