Guam News - Community Events

Guam - The Navy will conduct training on the island of Farallon de Medinilla on Tuesday May 31 from 8 a.m.-11 p.m.


The general public especially fisherman, commercial pilots and marine tour operators are advised to stay clear from the area during the time and date indicated.

The general location of the training on the island of Farallon de Medinilla training area will be on a 10 nautical mile radius on all quadrants.

Farallon de Medinilla plays a special and unique role in national defense because its location provides access frequency that supports established training requirements.

In addition, the air and sea space in the Farallon provides sufficient room for the many different attack profiles necessary to replicate training opportunities in the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands.
