The Bureau of Statistics and Plans is pleased to announce the installation of its twelfth and final coastal sign at one of Guam’s most iconic landmarks - Puntan Dos Amantes (Two Lovers Point). 

This project was made possible through federal funding from the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds.

The new Puntan Dos Amantes sign joins a network of coastal signs already installed at Paseo De Susana, Ypao Beach Park, Humåtak Bay, Salaglula (Inalahan) Pools, Talo’fo’fo’ Bay, Gun Beach, Malesso’ Pier, Hågat Marina, Tepungan Beach Park, and Matåpang Beach Park. 

Together, these signs promote coastal education and ecotourism, helping residents and visitors better understand and appreciate Guam’s unique coastal environment.

This final sign features two native flowering plants of Guam – the Guasåli and Chiute. The Chiute is a fragrant, plumeria-like flower that thrives in savannah and ravine areas. 

The Guasåli, typically found on limestone cliffs near the ocean, has long been valued for its medicinal uses and decorative appeal; its stem can be used as a torch or candle.

The sign also offers educational insights into coral reef zones and their vital role in protecting Guam’s coastlines. Coral reefs act as natural barriers, reducing erosion, mitigating storm surge and coastal flooding, and shielding both coastal communities and ecosystems from damage.

In addition to coral reef education, visitors will find important information on marine preserve boundaries and practical tips for safeguarding Guam’s beaches and ocean environments.

Visitors can access real-time beach advisories, information on rip current safety, coral reef protection updates, and multilingual resources in Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, Tagalog, Chuukese, Marshallese, Pohnpeian, Yapese, Kosraean, and CHamoru through QR codes featured on the sign.
