The culture of Guam reflects traditional Chamorro customs in a combination of indigenous pre-Hispanic forms, as well as American, Spanish and Mexican traditions. Post-European-contact CHamoru Guamanian culture is a combination of American, Spanish, Filipino, other Micronesian Islander and Mexican traditions. Few indigenous pre-Hispanic customs remained following Spanish contact, but include plaiting and pottery, and there has been a resurgence of interest among the CHamoru to preserve the language and culture. Hispanic influences are manifested in the local language, music, dance, sea navigation, cuisine, fishing, games (such as batu, chonka, estuleks, and bayogu), songs and fashion.

  • La cultura de Guam o Guaján actual es la propia de una comunidad cosmopolita con una cultura cuyas raíces se nutren del aporte del antiguo pueblo chamorro y que ha sido muy influenciada por la civilización española de Guam y la Iglesia católica. También es evidente una gran influencia estadounidense en la celebración de los días festivos, la forma de gobierno y el orgullo de formar parte de Estados Unidos que muestra la población. La cultura de Guam también ha recibido la influencia de inmigrantes filipinos, japoneses, coreanos, chinos y de la Micronesia, cada grupo aportando sus contribuciones específicas. La población de Guam en 2006 era de unos 171 000 habitantes, de los cuales el 37% eran chamorros, el 26% filipinos y el 11% isleños del Pacífico, mientras que el 26% restante eran principalmente caucásicos, chinos, coreanos y japoneses, aportando a Guam sus propias costumbres y herencias culturales.
