The Federated States of Micronesia is an independent,
sovereign nation made up of Pohnpei and three other
states; Chuuk,
Kosrae,
and Yap.
Together, the FSM comprises approximately 607 small
islands in the Western Pacific spread over almost
1,700 miles (2,700 km) from east to west
just above the equator some 2,500 miles
(4,000 km) southwest of Hawaii and about
1,800 miles (2,900 km) north of eastern
Australia, above Papua New Guinea.

Lagoon,
a Divers paradise for WWII ship wrecks
Chuuk or better known
amongst the Scuba Diving community as Truk Lagoon is
a must for Divers who like to explore the amazing
WWII wrecks in this Lagoon. A whole Japanese fleet
was sunk here during the WWII. Great Visibility and
little current makes this a perfect destination for
Wreck Divers.
