An entire sunken WWII fleet resting on the lagoon floor, coral now growing through gun turrets and cargo holds, and visibility good enough that wreck diving here is a pilgrimage for people who have never dived a wreck before.

The best time to visit Chuuk Lagoon is Dec–Apr, when typical daytime highs reach about 29°C (83°F).
