This is one of those "Trips of a lifetime". Diving the Japaneese Imperial Fleet which was sunk during WW2 in Truk Lagoon is on my top 10 list of things to do before I hang up my fins.
Truk has long been acknowledged as ‘the world’s ultimate wreck site’ because almost 70 charted wrecks lie inside the lagoon. The calm waters hold the remains
of the Japanese fleet that was targeted by Operation Hailstone in February 1944 during World War II. The resulting battles led to the numerous wrecks now found within the lagoon.
Some 275 Japanese planes were downed and over 60 ships were sunk! These amazing wrecks, which have been protected from plunder and still contain the remains of those who died in them,
are now enrobed in coral.
We dive and stay aboard a liveaboard, and with up to 5 dives a day we can get to see up to 30 of many many wrecks that the region has to offer.
