With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, it’s best not to wait until it’s too late to make reservations if you’re planning a romantic night out at a restaurant. Here are some ideas on where to go to wine and dine your Valentine.
Underwater World Tunnel of Love
For an enchanting evening under the sea, wine and dine with your sweetheart in one of the longest aquarium tunnels in the world, peacefully surrounded by more than 2,000 animals representing more than 80 different species—many of which are native to Guam and the Mariana Islands.
In the Tunnel of Love at Underwater World, an elegant four-course dinner will be served, paired with your choice of Clos du Bois or Heineken. A single rose will be presented to your table, and guests will receive a special couples gift and souvenir photo of the evening presented in a love frame. Inside the aquarium tank, Underwater World divers swim up to your table and deliver a personal love note to your sweetie.

Encore! A Magical Extravaganza
If you time your dinner at The World Cafe just right, afterwards you can catch Guam’s newest entertainment show: Encore! A Magical Extravaganza.

Together they present a dynamic evening of thrilling magic and illusions, laugh-out-loud comedy, wondrous feats of the human body, and Guam’s only baby white lion. Encore! has captivated audiences since its recent debut and has already racked up an average 5-star rating among locals and tourists on Trip Advisor.
Anthony Reed is certainly no stranger to magic in the Marianas, and he has received international acclaim and is recognized as one of the most exciting performers in the world today. He’s made jaw-dropping appearances on the hit television show America’s Got Talent and was also invited to appear on NBC’s primetime show The World’s Most Dangerous Magic II.
