Apra Harbor – Guam
Apra Harbor is a beautiful natural harbor located midway on the west side of the Island of Guam. To the south it is protected by Orote Point Peninsula, and to the north by an arching reef extending out from Cabras Island three miles to the northeast and by an extended breakwater just inside and south of the reef. At the western tip of the peninsula, the bluffs of Udall Island guard the harbor entrance. About three miles due east from the entrance lies Polaris Point.
