The tranquil blue waters of Truk Lagoon are hiding a paradise so incredible you need to see it, to believe it.  Under the enticing calm azure hues lies a seabed of exploration awaiting your arrival.  Don’t be misled though, this playground is not out of your depth and the inclusive nature of the wrecks means that single tank divers are welcome. 

We certainly recommend to get the best of your experience that you are AOW (Advanced Open Water or Equivalent) certified and that this is accompanied by Nitrox and Wreck Diver Speciality. Here are 5 reasons recreational divers love diving in Truk Lagoon:

1.     70% of + 40 wrecks lie within the 40m/141ft range. Despite often being regarded as a deep, technical diving location with big challenging wrecks and advanced penetrations this is simply not the case.

2.     It is ideal to visit throughout the year as the environmental conditions in Truk Lagoon are excellent.

3.     The vis in the lagoon is generally quite good all year round, but not excellent. During the dry season November to February visibility can reach25m/80ft or more.  12-20m/40-60ft is the norm and 11m/30ft visibility would be a bad day.

4.     You can penetrate (if certified) to visit engine rooms, check out artillery trucks, bags and bags of ammo, huge tanks, guns, torpedoes and much more.

5.     The wrecks have been in the lagoon for more than 60 years and are covered in soft and hard coral growth but they are still largely intact.
