Micronesia Diving

Micronesia is home to a diverse and varied range of diving experiences. The geological formation in this destination presents a wide range of diving possibilities in blue holes, caves, marine lakes, rocks and walls as well as opportunities to encounter pelagic animals like oceanic sharks, orcas and whales crossing the Pacific Ocean.

Dives in Chuuk/Truk are world famous for the wrecks sunk during the legendary Hailstorm Operation in February 1944 where the Japanese lost 260 planes and 60 ships and the US lost 26 aircrafts leaving you spoiled for choice! Over the years the warm tropical waters and the richness of the tidal currents transformed these hulks of war into magnificent artificial reefs with incredible corals in a variety of colors and shapes. We also offer Chuuk/Truk Liveaboards.

Palau’s reefs offer divers over 1,500 species of fish and an outstanding coral diversity to explore. The diving in Palau consists of fringing reefs, walls, sea mounts, channels, blue holes and wrecks. In Palau, the opportunity to encounter vast numbers of sharks, mantas, eagle rays, turtles, dolphins and migratory pelagics assembling at a unique crossroad of the world's three major ocean currents are endless.

Yap is world famous for its resident population of more than 100 giant manta rays that congregate at cleaning stations such as Manta Ridge and Car Wash, found along the Goofnuw and Miil Channels. In Yap manta rays can be observed up close every day of the year with best sightings in the morning when they are waiting on the cleaning stations.

Micronesia Travel Information

Getting to Micronesia from the UK is a long trip but worth the experience. Most of our flight connections are via Manila where we recommend an overnight in a city hotel before the next flight.

All flight connections to and from Micronesia are via Guam, the central hub for all Continental Micronesia flights. Some flight connections have unavoidable long waits in Guam, sometimes up to 12 hours. When this happens we recommend guests get out of the airport to explore the island or just relax and unwind in a town hotel just 10 minutes away from the airport.

While in Guam, guests can take part on a range of leisure activities. In addition to the virgin beaches that cover a large part of the island, Guam is also famous for its undeveloped jungle, caves, waterfalls and WW2 battlefields. Due to the size of the island, trips to most of Guam’s untouched places can be done in one morning or afternoon and are a great way of getting through the day.

The first to happen upon these remote islands were the Portuguese around the 16th century. They sold the islands to the Germans in 1899 and in 1914 they were conquered by the Japanese. In the 1940’s during World War II the United States took power from the Japanese and it was administered by the US under United Nations auspices as part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands.

In May 1979, the four Trust Territory districts agreed a new constitution to become the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM). The following islands decided not to participate, Palau, the Marshall and the Northern Mariana Islands. On November 3, 1986, the FSM signed a Compact of Free Association with the United States of America, marking a move towards independence. Palau became one of the world’s most recently formed sovereign states.
