The Pago River[1] is one of the longest rivers in the United States territory of Guam. It is fed by two inland rivers, Lonfit River and Sigua River.[2] Rising close to the west coast, it traverses the island, flowing into the sea at Pago Bay in the central east coast. The village of Yona lies just to the south of the river's mouth.
