General Tips: Diving Truk Lagoon
  • Tip Rating:
  • Favorite Thing: CHUUK

    The many islands within this huge atoll are crowned with natural beauty. The outer barrier reef is punctuated with idyllic sand spits dotted with coconut palms. The high islands in the central lagoon rise into the blue sky.

    Lush vegetation and simple living punctuate the lives of the lagoon. Fishing, weaving and tending garden sustain most of the people that live on their individual islands. It is not unusual to see women waist deep in the mangroves hunting for a special delicacy or men walking the reefs at night looking for baby octopus.


    Fondest Memory: Diving for sure and the people are burned in!

  • Favorite Thing: Watching and learning about tradition customs and culture I think are my favorite things. In the photo you can see where a Communities has come together to weave a new boat house or sing and dance.
    Video of traditional Ponapean dancing

    The cultures of Micronesia are very rich and they are really trying hard to hold on to them


    Fondest Memory: Just sitting on the floor of the central house and watching the families interact, cooking or doing the laundry and seeing the ids frolic in the water of the lagoon or the rivers that flow past the villages. I love gathering of people watching them sing and interact in their culture in Micronesia this is so possible at any church no mater the flavor or at a school or community function.
