TRUK 2022
Dive the famous “Truk Lagoon”
If you are at all interested in shipwrecks, or history in World War II - you’ll likely already be aware of the ‘Ghost Fleet’ and ‘Operation Hailstone’ in 1944 that resulted in the sinking of over 100 Japanese ships and aircraft over the course of three days.
From ‘Zero’ fighting planes through to Massive Water Carriers, Merchant Ships and even an Imperial Submarine, these wrecks scatter what was once a major Japanese base during WWII.
Diving these wrecks is usually associated with calm seas, in warm and clear waters.
This trip does require divers to have minimum qualification of Advanced Open Water Diver (or equivalent) to ensure divers have confidence and experience in deep water diving as most of these large ships do not lie in shallow water. This is also a very remote location , so Rescue Diver (or equivalent) is very highly recommended for you and your buddys safety and best enjoyment.
Your trip guide also recommends qualification in Deep and Wreck Diver training to allow you to penetrate the wrecks with competence. You can still attend with lesser qualifications, however you and your buddy may not be able to experience the best this location has to offer, as you will remember during your SCUBA education – you will need to abide by your qualification limits.
From $3595 per Diver
This trip package includes:
* Flights ex Brisbane to Weno, Chuuk.
* Airport Transfers to Blue Lagoon Resort, Weno (Please be advised these are dependent on the state of the pandemic and Air Nugini starting their flights again)
