The 6th "Guam International Marathon" is scheduled to take place on April 8, 2018. This important annual event in Guam, which is recognized as a Boston Marathon qualifier, offers race categories including 5 km, 10 km, half marathon, and full marathon. Coupled with China Airlines' upcoming resumption of Guam flights at the end of March next year, it will be even more convenient for travelers to visit Guam starting next year.
The Guam International Marathon is regarded as a Boston Marathon qualifier and is also a major annual sporting event in Guam. Beyond being a personal challenge, the exhilarating feeling of running along the coastline towards the morning sunrise, or starting under the starry night sky, as well as the warmth of the locals, are all key reasons that attract many runners to the Guam Marathon. Alongside the marathon event, travel agencies such as Southeast Travel, Lion Travel, and Pacific Island Travel have launched related sports-themed independent travel packages.

Guam is also the easiest skydiving destination for Taiwanese to reach, and its abundant marine resources allow visitors to fully enjoy water activities, including snorkeling or trying scuba diving to explore the beauty of the underwater world.

Taking advantage of the growing Guam tourism market, China Airlines has announced the resumption of flights to Guam starting in March 2018, operated by the Boeing 737-800 aircraft. Starting from March 25, the Taipei-Guam route will add a Sunday flight, resulting in five direct round-trip flights per week with morning departures and afternoon returns, making it more convenient for Taiwanese travelers to plan trips to Guam.
