Dive Sites
Chuuk Lagoon has attracted
divers from virtually every corner of the world. Marine archaeologists have located
41 World War II shipwrecks, referred to recently as The Ghost Fleet, athough as
many as 65 ships may be quietly resting at the bottom of the lagoon.
A
majority of the wrecks are located on the windward side of Tonoas Island, and
between Tonoas and Fefan islands. Another concentration of wrecks can be found
near Uman Island. The dive centre generally visits around 20 of the most popular
dive sites plus other interesting sites upon request or when conditions are right.
Most dive sites are located within a 25 minute boat ride from the dive shop.
