Truk

800 miles to the east of Palau lies Truk lagoon encircling the islands of Chuuk. This is the location of hundreds of wrecked World War II Japanese & US ships and planes. The lagoon is sheltered allowing for calm diving conditions to leisurely explore the near intact cargo ships. The depth of wrecks varies from surface to around 35m with the famous Fujikawa Maru reaching to just over 30m. This wreck includes it original wings, wheels, guns, & artillery ammunition as well as the remains of those that perished. Japanese fighters sit close by 150m+ freighters including the 134m long Yamagiri Maru with huge gun shells. Tanks and trucks are still visible at the Nippo maru. Even submarines, such as the Heian Maur and the Gose Maru have periscopes, torpedoes & many artefacts still aboard. Well known wrecks to visit include: Rio de Janeiro Maru at 104m and listing to her port side gives great views from above. The wrecks attract a wide range of fish feeding from the coral that has grown up over the years. Several nearby reefs offer alternative diving.
